This is AP news minute.

1. WikiLeaks founder¹ Julian Assange says their group will work with technology companies to help them defend against the CIA's hacking² tools, following the organization's massive release of purported³ agency secrets Tuesday. The CIA has yet to comment on the authenticity⁴ of the leak.

2. President Donald Trump⁵ tweeted that contrary to media reports, plans to overhaul⁶ Obama care are "Coming along great". The republican party is badly divided over the healthcare fix with conservatives calling the house bill too timid and moderates worry their states could loose medicaid payments.

3. Cheers and applauses as residents of Bastrop, Texas welcomed home elderly bus passengers who survived in a deadly collision with a train in Mississippi. Four people were killed and about 40 injured when a train barreled into a bus, stuck on its tracks Tuesday.

4. And Yao Lin and Shi Lin, the only two giant panda twins in the US have reached a milestone⁷. The pair turns six month old earlier this week and now get to enjoy all their play at their day room habitat at the Atlanta Zoo.
