People wearing masks are seen in an alley near the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan, the epicenter of the novel coronavirus outbreak in China, Feb. 27, 2020.

And, Taliban officials say they’re resuming military operations just days after signing a peace deal with the US after Afghanistan’s government rejected the timeline for a prisoner swap. Plus, a US federal appeals court flip flops as it invalidates — then reinstates — President Donald Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” program, which has sent nearly 60,000 migrants back to Mexico.
