At least 21 people are now dead, after dozens of tornadoes swept through parts of the U.S. midwest and the southern states. According to the country's national weather service, there were at least 66 reported tornadoes across seven states — all within a span of 24 hours. Reggie Cecchini looks at the damage.

During the pandemic, the world's attention shifted to fighting off COVID-19. Yet another epidemic has remained: HIV-AIDS. Despite calls for Canada to do more to prevent HIV and increase testing, the federal budget fell far short of what advocates were hoping for. Touria Izri explains.

,1,During remarks in Tehran on Monday, Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanaani blamed the U.S. for the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Iranian-backed, Gaza-situated Hamas militants.
"The American government must be held accountable for the crimes of the Zionist regime, and it is the American government that is now supporting the Zionist regime against the oppressed nation of Palestine,” Kanaani said.
The accusation came after U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced a heavier military presence in the Middle East on Sunday, in wake of the Hamas attacks on Israel on Oct. 7. According to Blinken, the U.S. aircraft carriers being sent to the Mediterranean sea are intended to be a deterrence as opposed to a provocation of war.
Asked if Tehran would engage if the U.S. weighed in, Kanaani said that "Iran considers that the U.S. is already militarily involved in the conflict between Israel and Palestinians."

,1,Toronto's York University is facing calls to decertify a major student union over a public statement that called Hamas’ attacks in Israel “justified and necessary.”
The York Federation of Students, which represents 55,000 undergraduate students at York University, issued a “statement of solidarity with Palestine” on Thursday, in which the union argued the actions of Hamas represented a “strong act of resistance.”
The statement, which was also signed by the York University Graduate Students Association, was met with condemnation from Liberal MP Anthony Housefather, who called the comments “shocking.”
Global's Colin D'Mello reports.
