Four corporations are under investigation and about 200 people have been arrested across six provinces over suspected involvement in massive forest fires in Indonesia.

Abortion rates have decreased

Abortion rates across the nation are at their lowest since the practice became legal in 1973, according to a report from the Guttmacher Institute, a research group that supports abortion rights.

The report said the drop in abortions are due to a drop in pregnancies across the world, increased access to contraception and better education about safe sex practices.

Despite the almost 400 U.S. state laws enacted between 2011 and 2017 restricting abortion access, the report found no evidence that stricter abortion laws played a major role in the overall decline of abortions.

Spain to hold its fourth election in four years

Despite months of negotiation, Spanish prime minister Pedro Sánchez did not receive enough support from parliament to form a government.

Spanish citizens will be going back to the polls on November 10, less than seven months after the general election.
