Hyundai is recalling nearly 70,000 of its 2026 Palisade SUVs while an investigation into the death of a young child continues, the carmaker announced Friday.

The recall, which includes the Palisade Limited and Calligraphy trims, is tied to a defect with the family-friendly second and third-row power seats.

The seats may not detect that a person is sitting there when they fold, Hyundai warned, adding that the second row is built to tilt and slide with the touch of a button.

“Hyundai is aware of a tragic incident involving a Palisade,” a spokesperson said in a statement. “While Hyundai does not yet have the full details and the incident is still under investigation, a young child lost her life. Hyundai extends its deepest sympathies to her family.”

Ric Grenell is leaving his role as head of the Kennedy Center, a source close to the Trump Kennedy Center confirmed to The Hill on Friday.

President Trump announced in a Truth Social post that Matt Floca, the current vice president of operations, would succeed Grenell as CEO and executive director, pending approval from the Board of Directors.

“Ric Grenell has done an excellent job in helping to coordinate various elements of the Center during the transition period, and I want to thank him for the outstanding work he has done,” Trump wrote.

Grenell’s departure, first reported by Axios, comes at a tumultuous time for the renowned arts and cultural institution, which has seen dramatic changes since Trump took it over early last year and overhauled the board.

The suspect who killed one person and injured two others at Old Dominion University on Thursday was identified by authorities as Mohamed Jalloh, a former member of the army national guard who pleaded guilty in 2016 to attempting to provide material support to the Islamic State.

Dominique Evans, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Norfolk field office, told reporters the suspect had attempted to commit an “act of terrorism” and shouted “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire. He was subdued and killed by members of the university’s ROTC program in a university classroom, she said, praising them for demonstrating “extreme bravery and courage” and preventing further loss of life. (ROTC is a college-based program that allows students to train to become a US military officer while also earning a college degree.)

Virginia governor Abigail Spanberger identified ROTC instructor Lt Col Brandon Shah as the victim killed in the shooting.

“A devoted ROTC instructor, Lt. Col. Shah didn’t just lead a life of service to our country, he taught and led others to follow that path,” she wrote on social media.

Kash Patel, the FBI director, said the bureau was investigating the incident as an “act of terrorism”.

“Earlier today, an armed individual opened fire at Old Dominion University, leaving one person dead and two others wounded,” Patel said on social media. “The shooter is now deceased thanks to a group of brave students who stepped in and subdued him – actions that undoubtedly saved lives along with the quick response of law enforcement.

A device thrown outside the official residence of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani during dueling protests on Saturday, March 7, was confirmed to be an improvised explosive, according to a preliminary analysis by police.

Two people were in custody after New York City police said they attempted to ignite suspicious homemade devices during a "Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City" rally led by Jake Lang, a 30-year-old far-right conservative influencer. The event drew a large crowd of counterprotesters, and one demonstrator threw an ignited device toward Lang's area, police said.

In a statement on social media, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the department’s bomb squad conducted a preliminary analysis and determined that the device was not a hoax device or a smoke bomb but an "improvised explosive device that could have caused serious injury or death." She added that further testing will be conducted, including on a second device that was dropped during the confrontationtatement on social media, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the department’s bomb squad conducted a preliminary analysis and determined that the device was not a hoax device or a smoke bomb but an "improvised explosive device that could have caused serious injury or death."

The president of a Washington, D.C.-based medical service provider that holds a government contract with the Trump administration says the company will no longer provide health care services at immigration detention facilities.

Aspen Medical USA posted job listings for positions in Roxbury, New Jersey at a “secure medical facility” that included nurses, X-ray technicians, radiologists and pharmacists. At least one of the positions said the job would require “providing quality medical care to patients within a transitional corrections setting.”

Earlier this week, the Trump administration closed a $129.3 million deal to buy a warehouse in Roxbury that it plans to turn into a detention center for people detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

In an interview Friday, Aspen Medical President Ethan Bond said the company is not recruiting for any jobs in New Jersey and said the remaining job postings “should not exist.”

Aspen Medical has faced media scrutiny over similar postings in Merrimack, New Hampshire, where another ICE detention facility had been proposed. The company was among a group of firms recently awarded a U.S. Navy contract in connection with the Trump administration’s multibillion-dollar spending plan on immigration enforcement and detention.

As news reports circulated that Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, had been killed in US and Israeli airstrikes on Tehran, anti-war protesters gathered across the United States, including outside the White House and in New York’s Times Square to voice opposition to US military involvement in the region.

“It wasn’t sanctioned by Congress, so what Trump is doing is on his own terms, it’s making him a fascist and it’s making the country into a fascist state,” said Sue Johnson, a protester.

Trump, she added, “just couldn’t wait. He’s such an impatient child. He’s like, ‘Well ICE didn’t work, so let’s go stir things up in the Middle East. He bombed Iran for no specific reason.”

“No president can attack or kidnap or bomb another country without the permission of the Congress,” she said, but conceded that “it’s irrelevant what Congress thinks because this president goes and does whatever he wants to do to any country.”

That sense of fait accompli that accompanies recent Trump administration foreign policy actions, including the capture of Nicolás Maduro, the Venezuelan president, permeated the New York gathering of several hundred protesters.
