Some 220,000 jobs were created in June, the government said on Friday, a figure that was above analysts’ estimates. The biggest gains came in the health care, social assistance, financial activities and mining sectors, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said in a statement. The government revised up its estimates for the number of jobs created in April, to 207,000, and May, to 152,000, adding a total of 47,000 new jobs. “Really great numbers on jobs & the economy!” President Donald Trump tweeted. “Things are starting to kick in now, and we have just begun!” – WAPO

At least 28 inmates were killed during a fight between rival gangs in a prison in Acapulco, Mexico. Police found four decapitated bodies. The prisoners used sharp instruments and blunt objects to fight one another. The maximum-security prison was 30 percent over its capacity when the fight broke out, according to state security official Roberto Alvarez. There were 1,951 men and 110 women incarcerated there. Violent crime is on the rise in Mexico and the number of murders increased by around 30 percent in the first five months of the year. That is, in large part, because gangs are battling for control of the drug trade following the arrest of drug lord Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzman last year. – REUTERS

Martian soil contains a toxic mix of chemicals that are incompatible with life. The ultraviolet light in the red planet turns these compounds into strong bactericides that would kill living organisms, new research shows. The discovery means that if there are living organisms on the red planet, they would be two or three meters beneath the surface. “At those depths, it’s possible Martian life may survive,” said Jennifer Wadsworth, a postgraduate astrobiologist at Edinburgh University. The research by Wadsworth and Charles Cockell, who is also an astrobiologist at Edinburgh, centers on three compounds found in Martian soil: perchlorates, iron oxides and hydrogen peroxide. The antibacterial effect of these chemicals is enhanced when subjected to UV light. – GUARDIAN

France will ban the sale of vehicles that run on oil and diesel by 2040. Ecology minister Nicolas Hulot said it would be challenging to meet the goal, but that leading French car manufacturers – which include Renault and PSA Peugeot Citroën – will help with the task. Slightly less than 5 percent of the vehicles in circulation in France are either hybrid or electric. The French government will provide financial support to help low-income people buy electric cars. – BBC

A woman in Georgia has been charged with stabbing four of her children and her husband to death. A fifth child is in the hospital with serious injuries. “What prompts a person to take the life of such innocent children and her spouse is something we may never understand,” Gwinnett County police said in a statement. Police believe that the woman, Isabel Martinez, used a knife to attack her victims. The deceased children were ages 10, 7, 4 and 2. – AP

A passenger on a United Airlines flight had to carry her two-year old son in her arms after being asked to give up his seat to another passenger. After boarding the plane, a flight attendant asked Shirley Yamauchi, from Hawaii, to give her son’s seat to a passenger on the stand-by list. Yamauchi said she did not complain because she feared for her personal safety. She said she remembered news reports about David Dao being dragged from his seat in a United flight. "The violence. Teeth getting knocked out. I'm Asian. I'm scared and I felt uncomfortable. I didn't want those things to happen to me," she said. Dao's incident made headlines across the U.S. in April, forcing the company to issue an apology. Dao settled a dispute with United for an undisclosed amount. – NPR

The U.S. Department of Education has been sued by 18 states and the District of Columbia for freezing Obama-era rules that would have canceled the debts of students who were defrauded by their schools. The states argue that the Trump administration broke the law because it did not give proper notice of the freeze and because it failed to grant the public an opportunity to comment. In a statement announcing the decision in June, the Department of Education said the new rules are unfair to students and schools and that they put “taxpayers on the hook for significant costs”. – REUTERS

A college student in Hawaii has been sentenced to 45 days in prison for killing at least 15 protected birds near a natural reserve. Authorities said that Christian Gutierrez and some of his friends killed the Laysan albatrosses during a camping trip in 2015. They used a bat, a machete and a pellet gun to kill the birds. They threw the dead birds into the ocean and destroyed their nests. Three people were arrested for the crime, but two of them were juveniles at the time. – AP

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Gonorrhea, one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases, is becoming resistant to antibiotics. The warning stems from new studies that show that, in at least 50 countries, antibiotics are failing to tackle the bacterial infection that affects 78 million people across the world every year. The infection is becoming resistant to older antibiotics while pharmaceutical companies are developing only three new drugs to treat gonorrhea, WHO said in a statement. – GUARDIAN
