German Emissions Tests Cause Controversy

Car exhaust fumes were tested on humans and monkeys.

Car exhaust fumes were tested on humans and monkeys by the Berlin-based European Research Group on Environment and Health in the Transport Sector. The German government says tests on monkeys and people weren't ethically justifiable. Also, the Islamic State group says it was behind an attack that killed at least eleven Afghan soldiers, a UN report shows nearly half of Somalia's population is facing severe food insecurity, and hear why fitness apps are revealing details about military bases.
