Mayor Karen Bass said $600,000 in housing support has already been provided to those affected, while an additional $1 million in Airbnb assistance will be available to city and county residents in the immediate area surrounding the Lineage warehouse.

The non-profit 211 LA will identify eligible residents living near the warehouse and assist in booking stays through Airbnb.org, the Mayor's Office said. 

"I've gone door to door in this neighborhood and met with the families living near the Lineage warehouse — they are suffering and many have expressed their desire to be relocated during the waste removal process. This is an important step in that direction," 
Bass said in a news release.

The heat is making the foul odors more intense for residents as they endure a putrid stench and a rodent and fly infestation.

"The smell and the heat inside the house is like a sauna," Boyle Heights resident Maria Jauregui said. "You can't even eat dinner or breakfast comfortably without getting sick."

As for Linage's deodorizing efforts to control the stench of the rotted food that was stored in the warehouse, "You're putting deodorant on poop, that's what it smells like," Jauregui said. "Nobody should be living under these conditions, nobody."

Boyle Heights and East L.A. residents in the impacted area can call (626) 406-2786 for Airbnb.org housing support, available to families in close proximity to the warehouse.

Lineage, the operator of the Boyle Heights warehouse destroyed by fire, is offering food to affected residents at various locations from today through the end of August.

At the onset of the blaze, aerial footage showed flames within the brush near Photoflash Road, spreading to Soledad Canyon Road. Los Angeles County Fire Department ground crews and water-dropping helicopters responded, with attention to residential areas within the possible footprint of the Pointe Fire. 

An evacuation warning was issued for Centre Pointe Pkwy, near Bowman High School. "Prepare to leave if you live here or are nearby," LASD wrote in an alert. 

Flames began spreading south, away from the immediate residential area. The fire was first reported around 1:40 p.m., and around 3 p.m., crews appeared to have the upper hand in controlling the blaze. By 3:55 p.m., LACoFD said forward progress of the blaze had stopped. 

LA County Fire said they had two strike teams pre-positioned in the Santa Clarita Valley, allowing them to quickly get a handle on the blaze. It added that more crews will be pre-positioned in the area on Thursday. 

An extreme heat warning is also in effect for the area, with afternoon temperatures in Santa Clarita reaching 103.

The news conference and rally, supported by Black Lives Matter-Los Angeles and the NAACP, took place at the Hall of Justice in Los Angeles.

"There's a double standard that exists and we're saying that there ought to be one standard of justice, not a standard for ICE officers and a standard for the rest of us," said Baba Akili, a community activist with BLM. "We are calling for one standard of justice, and that justice starts with firing Brian Palacios."

Family members voiced frustration over the lack of movement in the case, as Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said earlier that he was waiting on the LAPD investigation to be turned over before considering filing charges against the agent, who has been identified as Brian Palacios.    

The District Attorney's Office said on Wednesday that it has received the case and it is currently under review. 

"Our experienced prosecutors will conduct a thorough analysis of all the facts and evidence to determine whether criminal charges can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt," the DA's office wrote in an email. 

Porter, a 43-year-old father of two, was shot by an off-duty U.S. Immigration and Customs agent outside the apartment where he lived. His family says he was shooting a gun in the air to celebrate the new year. A statement from DHS about the incident describes it as an "active shooter situation."

The agent was in his apartment when he heard what he suspected were multiple gunshots, according to DHS.

"The officer took his ICE-authorized firearm and left his apartment to investigate. He moved to the ground level and went outside, where he believed the suspected gunfire was coming from," then-DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in January.

McLaughlin's statement says that the officer rounded the corner of the building, where he encountered Porter, who they said was allegedly armed with a long rifle.

"The ICE officer identified himself as law enforcement. In response, the individual pointed his weapon at the ICE officer. The officer ordered the subject to put the weapon down," McLaughlin said. "When the subject refused to comply, the officer fired defensively with his service weapon at the subject to disarm him. The subject fired at least three rounds at the officer."

Porter's family and friends say they don't believe the agency's account of the night's events is accurate, adding they can't believe the case hasn't been handled more quickly. 

"He was murdered on New Year's Eve. And here we are in July, finally with the case moving to the DA's Office," said Jsané Tyler, Porter's cousin.

She said the family will not rest "until his murderer ... has been charged and arrested for his murder."

The DA's Office said cases like this one can take several months or more to resolve.

 "Our experienced prosecutors will conduct a thorough analysis of all the facts and evidence to determine whether criminal charges can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt," said a statement from the DA's Office, in part. "Given the complexity of that process, it is difficult to predict a timeline for completion."

 CBS LA has reached out to both DHS and an attorney for Palacios regarding the ongoing case, but has not yet heard back.

"Like every 30-40 seconds, you just keep hearing screams," neighbor Craig Strong said. "It's like this is going to be our new sound in the neighborhood all day long."

Strong's neighbors said it wasn't roller coasters they heard first, but the screams from the riders. 

"It's very peaceful," Strong said. "That roller coaster, it's a game changer."

NBCUniversal outlined a number of steps to address noise on its website, including installing 900 feet of sound walls, using pea gravel to help quiet the track, and designing the coaster cars to rotate so screams won't always face the neighborhood. 

"The coaster is currently in its testing and commissioning phase, which includes actively reviewing sound levels to ensure the coaster operates in compliance," a Universal Studios Hollywood spokesperson wrote. "Feedback from the community is an important part of this process, and we appreciate hearing from them."  

Strong and his neighbors hope Universal will take more steps to dampen the sound from the new ride.

"Please work this out," Strong said. "I can't live here and listen to screams every 40 seconds until, sometimes, 2 a.m. It's just unfair."

The ride is expected to open later this year. 

In a news release, Long Beach Police Department investigators said the crash happened at around 12:30 p.m. on June 21, when a metallic blue Dodge Charger sideswiped a 2026 Honda Prologue driving west on Seventh Street near Magnolia Avenue. 

"The collision caused the Honda to collide with several unoccupied parked vehicles and overturn," the release said. "The Dodge Charger fled from the scene."

The man driving the Honda and a female passenger were both hospitalized with moderate injuries after the crash, police said. 

As their search continues, LBPD detectives have decided to share photos of the suspect and car involved, which they described as a metallic blue Dodge Charger with five-spoke wheels. 

The suspect is described as a man in his early 20s who stands around 5-foot-10 and weighs approximately 170 pounds. He had blue braces on his teeth and was last seen wearing a multicolored shirt, tan shorts, grey socks and grey sandals. Police also noted that he had diamond stud earrings and wore distinct glasses with diamond accents on the hinge and bridge. 

Anyone who witnessed the crash or knows more about the suspect's identity was urged to contact LBPD Collision Investigation Detail Detective Joseph Johnson at 562-570-7132. 

In La Cañada Flintridge on Wednesday, Southern California Edison customers were placed under a planned outage, just one of many communities dealing with the same issue due to the high heat. 

"We've got ice and cold water around, and the girls are doing okay," said Tran Ly, who lives in the impacted neighborhood. "I was worried yesterday it would be uncomfortable, but surprisingly, it's not been bad today."

She and her children were without power through the hottest part of Wednesday afternoon, where each hour of suffocating heat made their home more uncomfortable. 

In nearby Sherman Oaks, Jason Fudenberg had to rush to purchase a portable air conditioning unit after his home's system stopped working on Tuesday. 

"I noticed that the air conditioning had turned off. I'm like, 'Why is it off? It's already 88 degrees here in the house, I'm sweating to death,'" he said. "It's hot. I'm not going to be able to sleep."

Air conditioner repairmen say that this time of year sees the most repair calls, as many are working their systems overtime to keep cool. 

"What happens is, on the hottest days of the year, these wear-and-tear parts, they go out, especially during a heat wave," said Lael Aldana, who owns MightyServ Heating & Air Conditioning. "So, if you want to avoid the heat wave, it's a matter of life and death sometimes, make sure that you're [maintaining] your unit."

Gabriel Cortio, an HVAC technician working in Burbank during the heat, said that they've seen an influx in requests for maintenance on things like dirty coils and filters and weak capacitors. 

SCE said that the company is still considering a series of power shutoffs throughout the hot weather due to heightened wildfire risks in Southern California. 

Proponents say that the project will help California reach its clean energy goals, but many residents say that the massive facility could cause safety issues in the surrounding community. 

The Dirac Energy Storage Project, by Aypa, would go directly next to an existing Southern California Edison substation.  According to Aypa's website, lithium iron phosphate, or LFP batteries, would charge from the SCE grid when electricity is abundant, then send it back to the grid for regional use when energy is scarce. 

The SCE substation in question is located directly across the street from Ayala Park, where community members often take their dogs to play.

"That's not good. I guess, because it's next to a park," said Sal Villanueva, who lives nearby. "It all depends on how they want to store it with these batteries, because sometimes it doesn't go as planned, and you have to be careful."

It's the proximity to the park that has some residents, including Richard Rodriguez, concerned. 

"Well, if it did catch on fire, how long would that shut down the park?" he asked. 

The Dirac Project website says that the Chino facility's LFP batteries stay more stable at high temperatures, especially compared to the nickel manganese cobalt batteries that were stored at the Moss Landing Facility, which was the spot of a massive battery storage facility fire along the central coast in January 2025 that forced nearly 1,500 people to evacuate their homes.

Additionally, the website says that the facility will be built outdoors so that first responders have direct access from every approach. Still, residents don't feel entirely safe. 

"It does kind of make me a little worried, like, well, how will that be affected by the heat? Is that something that can catch on fire from the heat?" Rodriguez said. "I got pretty big dogs, so to try to find somewhere to take them would be a headache."

Villanueva said that if officials can prove the project will be safe for his community, especially located next to a park, then they can continue on as planned. 

CBS LA reached out to Chino city and Chino Fire Department officials for comment on the proposal, but both declined comment on short notice. 

ICE agents had been instructed to immediately suspend most vehicle stops during immigration enforcement operations nationwide, except in cases involving serious criminal targets.

In a Truth Social post Wednesday morning, however, Mr. Trump wrote that "we CANNOT give up one of I.C.E.'s most important and effective Crime Fighting tools, THE TRAFFIC STOP! Once we do, we are playing right into the criminal's hands." But he told ICE to "be judicious, fair and smart." 

The White House confirmed to CBS News that the president's Truth Social post was intended to overturn Tuesday's memo from DHS temporarily suspending vehicle stops by ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations, or ERO.

Later Wednesday, ICE sources confirmed to CBS News the agency's deportation officers can again make vehicle stops.

A law enforcement official and a DHS official said that ICE field offices issued verbal clarifications to personnel, and agents were told that traffic stops are "not off the table" and remain "a tool in the toolkit."

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin wrote on X that he and the president are "on the same page."

"We want our [ICE] officers to have all options available to keep them safe while executing our mission of deporting as many illegal alien criminals from our country as possible," Mullin said.

While the DHS directive pausing vehicle stops applied to ICE ERO, the division responsible for civil immigration arrests and removals, it did not include Homeland Security Investigations, which primarily handles criminal investigations, according to sources with visibility on the memo. The directive was intended to be a temporary pause while Enforcement and Removal Operations officers received additional training on vehicle-stop tactics, the sources said.

"It's not a policy change. It's a temporary pause," Trump administration border czar Tom Homan said later Tuesday on Fox News.

Homan said ICE leadership and DHS "want to look at these last couple of incidents. And look, is there something that could have been done better?" He added, "I'm confident that ICE is well trained in vehicle stops and you're going to see us keep moving forward."

Under the now-overturned directive, ERO officers were still permitted to conduct vehicle stops when working with partner law enforcement agencies to target criminal suspects with judicial warrants, sources said.

Vehicle stops have been a common tactic in ICE enforcement operations under the Trump administration, allowing officers to identify, follow and arrest targeted individuals away from homes or workplaces.

In the most recent incident, Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero, 25, a Colombian national who was in the country illegally, was shot when he "attempted to flee the scene" Monday when ICE tried to stop him at around 7 a.m. ET in Biddeford, Maine, according to the Department of Homeland Security. "Fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon," DHS said in a statement.

While Durán Guerrero was not the target of the operation, ICE agents attempted to pull over the man's car while "conducting targeted surveillance on the last known address of an illegal alien with a final order of removal," DHS said.

Durán Guerrero's father, Omar Duran, told CBS News partner Noticias Caracol that his son leaves behind a wife and 3-year-old daughter, adding that he had "left the country to build a future for his family."

"I only ask God ... that this be resolved in the best way, and that there be justice," Duran said, translated from Spanish. 

Durán Guerrero had previously been given an order to leave the country, independent Maine Sen. Angus King said Monday. 

Speaking to CBS News on Tuesday, King called for an independent investigation.

"I want a full, fair, open, transparent investigation of this, not strictly run by the feds," said King, an independent who caucuses with Democrats. "Unfortunately, the feds don't have the credibility today. The people of Maine are not going to accept an investigation that's run by ICE or at the FBI."

Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins said she had urged Mullin to halt the vehicle stops.

"While the investigation of the Biddeford shooting is not yet complete, it raises sufficient critical questions that I spoke with DHS Secretary Mullin last night and urged him to cease all non-urgent vehicle stops," Collins said in a statement.

Just six days earlier, a similar situation unfolded in Houston.

Mexican national Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was fatally shot by ICE officers who had pulled over his vehicle while looking for a different person, DHS confirmed last week.

"After receiving a credible tip from our law enforcement partners, our officers conducted surveillance on a target's address. Weeks prior to the incident, they noted two white vans at the property," DHS said. "On July 7, officers were almost at the target's address when they observed a white van with an individual who resembled the target. Officers then initiated the vehicle stop."

DHS initially said ICE officers were targeting Salgado Araujo because he was living in the country illegally. The department alleged he was shot after he ignored "multiple verbal commands" and attempted to ram an officer who fired his weapon in self-defense.

Salgado Araujo had no criminal record and was close to obtaining a work permit after living in the U.S. for more than three decades without legal status, his family has said.

In his remarks to CBS News, King criticized the Trump administration's immigration enforcement tactics.

"It's a tragedy for our country that we're going through this process that's based on a phony premise," he said. "The whole premise of this has been [arresting] 'the worst of the worst.' How frequently have we heard that term? 'We're going after the worst of the worst. We're going to take criminals off our streets.' Well, in Maine last winter, they arrested over 200 people. Nineteen of them had criminal records. That means 90% of the people arrested had no criminal records."

In a chippy, tense matchup that was less about free-flowing soccer and more a war of attrition, a 55th-minute moment of brilliance from left winger Anthony Gordon, who chipped in a cross from Morgan Rogers, gave England the lead.

But as they have so many times in this tournament, La Albiceleste mounted a comeback, first thanks to a stunning 85th-minute strike from just outside the penalty area by midfielder Enzo Fernandez, then a stoppage-time header from substitute Lautaro Martinez, to give Argentina the lead. Both were assisted by none other than legendary striker Lionel Messi.

"I dreamed it, I swear. I told Alexis (Mac Allister) that I was going to score. I told him that I was going to come on and I was going to win it," Martinez said. "I can tell you this team keeps showing what it's made of."

At the final whistle, Messi fell to his knees in celebration while England players collapsed in disbelief — again. Add 2026 to 1986 and 1998 on the list of games when Argentina has extinguished English hopes at the World Cup.  

"I'm gutted for the team, the staff, the fans," England captain Harry Kane said. "We worked so hard to be here. The lads have given every bit of blood, sweat and tears. To fall short like we did is just gutting."  

Messi is seeking to lead Argentina to a second consecutive World Cup title and the first repeat champion since Brazil in 1958 and 1962. His eight goals remain tied for the most in this tournament. The 39-year-old is one of only two players, the other being Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo, to play in six men's World Cups.

The Three Lions were seeking their first World Cup title since 1966. Their intercontinental rivalry with Argentina carries a lot of history, most notably Diego Maradona's infamous "Hand of God" goal that helped Argentina bounce England in the 1986 World Cup quarterfinal.

Argentina will face Spain on Sunday, which beat favorites France 2-0 on Tuesday. England will play France on Saturday for third place.

"We're going to try to win, we're going to leave everything out there," Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni said. "It's very difficult to get people to understand what these players are showing. It's incredible. We are unique, truly, and it's not arrogance, it's from the heart. We are unique."  

England wanted to protect its late 1-0 lead and coach Thomas Tuchel made lineup changes to build a wall in front of the goal.

Argentina and Messi kicked it down.

England swapped defender Reece James for Dan Burn and midfielder Declan Rice for defender Nico O'Reilly in the 82nd minute.

Three minutes later, Fernández struck from outside the penalty area for Argentina's first goal. And late substitute Martínez sealed the win with a close-range header when England defenders lost him on a cross from Messi.

Messi pulled in Kane and goalkeeper Jordan Pickford for handshakes and hugs on the pitch after Argentina's victory.

Argentina players — many with their shirts off — jumped and sang in front of their fans after their win. England players stood in shock in the middle of the field. A sizable chunk of their fans left immediately when the match ended.

The loss for England will hurt a new generation of fans in a similar way to Diego Maradona's infamous handball goal in the 1986 World Cup quarterfinals and the penalty shootout loss in 1998 when David Beckham was sent off for kicking Diego Simeone.  

It almost felt inevitable. Especially given the amount times Argentina has simply refused to give in at this year's World Cup. From Cape Verde to Egypt, Messi and Co. always seem to find a way.

England, in contrast, came up short in the World Cup semifinals for the third time after losses to Germany in 1990 and Croatia in 2018. And it's another occasion in recent years when England's players have squandered a winning position in the later stages of a major tournament.

Wednesday's first half was scoreless but not without some rough action. The teams combined for 19 first half fouls, two yellow cards and no shots on goal.

Referee Ismail Elfath held up play briefly after just a few minutes in an effort to calm things down.

It didn't seem to help much as the physical style by both teams continued.

Prior to the match, Argentine Security Minister Alejandra Monteoliva said that fans would not be able to carry some of their flags and banners that incorporate images of the Falkland Islands into the semifinal.

Monteoliva cited FIFA's code of conduct, which bans politically divisive content. But her comments led to a social media backlash in Buenos Aires.

England reasserted control of the Falklands in a 1982 war with Argentina. Argentines claim the British protectorate as the Malvinas and consider the South Atlantic islands essential to their national identity.

FIFA's code of conduct also says fans cannot "curse or chant in a political, offensive and/or discriminatory manner."

Argentine Vice President Victoria Villarruel this week described the match as a fight against "usurping pirates," a reference to the Falkland Islands controversy. 

The driver swerved through traffic as officers trailed behind, sometimes cutting through busy intersections and narrowly missing other cars. 

The pursuit continued into Watts before the driver stopped the car and surrendered. A passenger also surrendered at the end of the chase. 

In a news release, police said that 24-year-old Oceanside resident Lukas McHargue was arrested for murder for the deadly crash that happened back on April 15. 

"McHargue rear-ended Lewis on PCH south of Warner Ave.," the release said. "The impact sent her vehicle off the roadway and into the Bolsa Chica Wetlands, where it overturned and became submerged, trapping her inside."

Paramedics and firefighters extracted Lewis from the vehicle and rushed her to a nearby hospital, where she later succumbed to her injuries. She has since been remembered by friends and loved ones, who knew her as "Candy Corn," as someone "unimaginably loving and caring."

"Investigators determined McHargue had been driving more than 100 mph shortly before the crash, at more than double the posted speed limit," the release said.

Police said that evidence showed he had consumed both alcohol and marijuana, and that at the time of the crash, he was more than double the legal alcohol limit."

McHargue was arrested on Wednesday in Oceanside and taken into custody, police said. He was transported to the Orange County Jail and remains behind bars without bail. The arrest was conducted by Huntington Beach PD's Special Investigation Bureau and Major Accident Investigation Team.

Investigators said that McHargue had been "repeatedly warned" that impaired driving could kill someone, and that he "had personally acknowledged that risk."

According to the release, after the Orange County District Attorney's Office reviewed the case, they filed one count of murder against McHargue. In California, a DUI-related death can be charged as murder if there is evidence that the driver had knowledge that impaired driving is dangerous to human life, but consciously disregarded that danger.

"Driving in excess of 100 mph, at more than double the posted speed limit & with an alcohol level more than double the legal limit is not an accident," said a statement from Huntington Beach Police Chief Eric Parra. "This was a series of reckless choices that ended an innocent woman's life."

Anyone who knows more was asked to contact HBPD Traffic Investigator Vishal Rattanchandani at 714-536-5231.

"Imagine, with this World Cup, a Super Bowl every single day for five weeks," U.S. team captain Tim Ream told CBS News, adding, "It's not an accident that 5 billion people will be watching."

The team features six women who played for the U.S. National Team, including Olympic medalists Carli Lloyd, Kathryn Plummer Boden, Annie Drews Schumacher and Haleigh Washington. 

The 13-person roster also includes other Southern California natives and world-class athletes from Japan, Serbia, Brazil and Canada.

"Our vision isn't simply to launch another professional team; it's to build the flagship franchise for volleyball, a team that represents this city, inspires the next generation, and gives one of the world's greatest volleyball communities a club to call their own," said Ana Mendy, President, LOVB Los Angeles. "We have an incredible opportunity to build something special here, together."

While LOVB Los Angeles has not announced a head coach, its advisory board includes Southern California volleyball stars such as UCLA national champion Jenny Johnson Jordan, USC national champion April Ross, Long Beach State hall of famer Joy Fuerbringer and Pepperdine's longtime head coach Nina Mattias. 

The franchise will formally introduce itself to fans during a meet-and-greet event at California Surf Club in Redondo Beach on Saturday from 3-6 p.m.

Founded in 2020, LOVB, short for League One Volleyball, launched its first season in 2025 with six professional teams in Austin, Atlanta, Houston, Madison, Nebraska and Salt Lake City. 

Aside from the professional teams, LOVB includes 1,500 junior club teams in 58 locations across 26 states.

The woman's remains were discovered on Nov. 28, 1981, when someone gathering wood in the mountain region near Sugar Loaf Mountain and the Pinyon Crest community "discovered a shallow grave containing the remains of a severely decomposed female," a news release from the Riverside County Sheriff's Office said. 

"Due to the condition of the remains, investigators were unable to establish her identity despite extensive investigative efforts," the release said. "For more than 40 years, she remained unidentified."

In May, investigators used genetic genealogy and dental records to positively identify the woman as Thelma Gaston. 

"Ms. Gaston was the victim of a 1981 homicide that occurred in Los Angeles County," the release said. "The Los Angeles Police Department originally investigated the case and identified the suspect, who falsely represented her disappearance."

According to the RSO's release, the suspect, Lawrence Ramsen, was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison by the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office. 

Deputies said that the identification was made possible through funding provided by the Missing and Unidentified Human Remains Grant in 2022, which provided them with new opportunities to reexamine longstanding unsolved cases. 

"The successful identification of Ms. Gaston was made possible through the collaborative efforts of the Riverside Sheriff's Coroner's Bureau, the Riverside Cold Case Homicide Team, and Othram Labs, Inc., a private forensic laboratory specializing in advanced DNA testing," the release said. "The Riverside Sheriff's Coroner's Bureau extends its sincere appreciation to everyone whose dedication, expertise, and perseverance made this identification possible. Together, these efforts have ensured that Ms. Gaston has a name —and her story—returned to her."

The announcement comes just hours after the Riverside County Sheriff's Office positively identified the victim of a 1981 car crash in Riverside using forensic genetic genealogy. 

It happened just before 11:45 p.m., when police said they were called to the intersection of Ocean Boulevard and Golden Avenue in response to reports of a hit-and-run crash involving a pedestrian. Upon arrival, they found a man lying in the street. 

He was pronounced dead at the scene by Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics. The victim was identified on Wednesday as 53-year-old Brian McBroom by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office.

"The preliminary investigation indicates an unknown black vehicle was traveling eastbound in the number two lane on Ocean Boulevard just west of Golden Avenue when it struck a pedestrian who was crossing northbound outside of a crosswalk," the release said, noting that the car then continued to drive in the same direction without the driver stopping to help the pedestrian. 

Police said that the pedestrian was then struck by a white truck and a red sedan, neither of which stopped. 

Anyone who knows more was asked to contact LBPD Collision Investigation Detail Detective Ashley Van Holland at 562-570-7355.

The contest saw Lionel Messi, considered by many to be one of the best soccer players in the world, play against England for the first time in his long and storied career — and rack up a win, with 2-1 victory sending Argentina to the final. On the other side were England's all-time top goal scorer Harry Kane, and one of the stars of the tournament, Jude Bellingham. 

Previous matches between the two countries have produced some of the sport's most iconic moments. But this rivalry goes well beyond the soccer field.

The Falklands War

Diplomatic relations between England and Argentina remain strained to this day over two small islands off Argentina's Atlantic coast. To the U.K., they are the Falklands, but Argentina calls them the Malvinas.

In the 18th century, France, Spain and Britain all tried to lay claim to the islands, establishing early colonial settlements. France agreed to leave the islands in 1766, leaving Spanish settlers to force out the British, who withdrew in 1774. 

The Spanish then left in the early 19th century, leaving a newly independent government in Buenos Aires to claim the islands 300 miles off the country's coast as Argentina's own.

The sovereignty dispute reignited in 1833, however, when British forces arrived to reclaim the islands, expelling the Argentinian population and replacing it with Britons.

In 1982, an Argentinian military junta launched an attack on the islands and quickly captured the territory, sparking a 10-week war that killed 907 people, more than a third of whom were Argentinian sailors on the ARA General Belgrano cruiser that was sunk by a British submarine in a highly controversial attack.

Facing superior military force, Argentina surrendered the islands, which remain dominated more than three decades later by a British population.

Las Malvinas remain a bitter point of contention for the South American nation.

"The Hand of God"

Only four years after the conflict, Argentina and England faced off in a World Cup quarterfinal in Mexico City's gargantuan Azteca Stadium, which was packed with 114,000 people.

Early in the second half, the ball looped fortuitously to Diego Maradona, one of the sport's greatest players of all time, who leapt into the air and hit the ball with his fist into the back of the net.

The referee didn't register the hand contact, and the goal stood. 

"A few minutes later, Maradona then scored possibly the greatest goal in the history of the World Cup," soccer journalist Joey D'urso told CBS News. It sealed Argentina's fate — the match finished 2-1.

Asked afterward if he had scored his first goal legally, Maradona replied that it was "a little with the head of Maradona, and a little with the hand of God."

In a 2019 documentary, he described it as "like some sort of symbolic revenge against the English" for their invasion of the Malvinas. 

A year later, on the occasion of his 60th birthday, he told France Football magazine: "I dream to score another goal against the English, this time with the right hand."

In 1998, Argentina beat England on penalty shots in a game that saw David Beckham red carded and which then-England captain Alan Shearer said on Wednesday "still hurts now."

In 2002, Beckham scored a penalty to help England beat Argentina 1-0 in a World Cup group match — the two teams' last competitive fixture.

"For Malvinas, for Diego"

The Wednesday night rematch in Atlanta set the stage for Sunday's final against Spain for World Cup glory. But the historical significance of the game is inescapable.

After beating Switzerland 3-1 on Saturday, Messi — who is often compared to Maradona — and his teammates sang "The Fourth Star," the country's alternative World Cup anthem. 

"For Malvinas, for Diego," they chanted.

Gary Linekar, who scored England's consolation goal in the 1986 game and is now a well-known soccer commentator in the U.K., said Tuesday that he wants "revenge this time round" for the loss.

Ahead of Wednesday's clash, Argentina's coach Lionel Scaloni has tried to play down the historical significance. 

"It is a football game and that is all," he said. 

But Argentina forward Jose Lopez has promised that he and his teammates would "leave our lives on the field." 

"Obviously, inside and outside the four lines of the pitch it's a match that has a lot of history there, a lot of pain and a lot of things behind it," he said.

England coach Thomas Tuchel said in the run-up to the game that Argentina's players "are fueled by history, it means a lot to them. … But we are also emotional. We have the grit. We have the mentality that it takes to go up against it, and we are ready for it."

"Argentina versus England has become a classic," Víctor Hugo Morales, a Uruguayan journalist whose commentary on the 1986 match has been immortalized in Argentina, told The Guardian recently. "Before 1986, it was just another match. Since then, it has carried a political and emotional weight that goes far beyond football."

"I'm authorizing a new screening program for testosterone deficiency for our service members, ensuring you have the right testosterone levels to operate at your absolute best," Hegseth announced in a video on X titled "High-T Department." 

He said service members would be tested annually as part of their periodic health assessment. Those under 30 can voluntarily choose to be tested, as well. 

"We owe our warriors the absolute best medical care in the world, and this program delivers on that obligation," Hegseth said in the video. "Taking care of your long-term health means ensuring you remain strong, resilient and capable — not just for your next deployment, but for the rest of your life, so you can thrive long after you take off the uniform." 

The Pentagon has not released additional guidance about the policy. The Defense Health Agency referred questions to the Pentagon. 

The definition of low testosterone varies, so its prevalence has a wide range, from 2% to 50% in different studies, according to the American Urological Association.

Then-Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary, citing a 2007 study, said during a 2025 panel on testosterone replacement therapy that 5.6% of men aged 30-79 have low testosterone and symptoms, like depression and decreased strength. 

Researchers have found military training can impact testosterone levels of service members.

"The high operations tempo and high stress that these service members go through can actually decrease testosterone, sometimes acutely and sometimes even in the long term," Army Major Theodore Crisostomo-Wynne said at the 2025 FDA panel. 

Major Crisostomo-Wynne is a urologist at Madigan Army Center and said he spoke to the panel in a personal capacity and was not representing the views of the Pentagon or Defense Health Agency. 

He said testosterone deficiency is of particular concern in the special operations community where researchers have observed a new syndrome they are calling "The Operator Syndrome." 

"We think that it's due to chronic stress, blast exposure, traumatic brain injuries and sleep disruptions, which lead to hormonal dysregulation, mood and cognitive changes," Crisostomo-Wynne said. "And among the many medical and psychologic, you know, things that are at play in the syndrome, decreased testosterone and hormonal changes is one of the ones that seems to be prevalent in almost all of these guys." 

In his video, Hegseth called service members the military's "most decisive tactical advantage."

He said the battlefield "requires and demands maximum psychological and mental readiness, and by addressing these health markers early, we're keeping you on the leading edge of lethality and giving you the same level of support that you give this nation the absolute best."

That information could be reassuring or terrifying, but for now it's a potential tool to speed drug development by helping to identify and enroll high-risk people into studies of possible Alzheimer's treatments or preventive strategies.

Already large clinical trials are testing if certain drugs could prevent or at least delay the disease — and if any of those pan out, doctors will need an easy way to tell who should try them.

The scientists behind the new study stress that it's too soon for healthy people to seek out the so-called p-tau217 test, which is currently used to help diagnose whether people experiencing cognitive problems have Alzheimer's or another disorder.

"Wait and get tested when you can potentially do something about it," stressed Dr. Reisa Sperling of the Mass General Brigham Neuroscience Institute, the study's senior author. "At this point, it wouldn't change what I would tell someone to do. I'd still tell them to eat well, sleep well, exercise a lot and stay engaged."

The new findings showed that symptom-free older adults who harbored very high levels of p-tau217 had a 38% risk of developing cognitive impairment over five years. That risk grew to 78% by 10 years.

The research was published in JAMA and presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in London.

It's not clear exactly what causes Alzheimer's, but its telltale markers are brain-clogging amyloid plaques and neuron-killing tau tangles. The p-tau217 test measures a form of tau that correlates with how much plaque buildup someone has and gives a hint about tangles, Sperling said.

Details on the study  

The Mass General Brigham team analyzed data from 2,684 older adults who were healthy when they'd joined some long-running Alzheimer's studies, receiving the p-tau217 blood test at enrollment and yearly cognitive checkups. Between the earliest enrollment in 2004 and last year, about 478 had developed cognitive impairment.

Study participants with very low p-tau217 levels likewise had a low risk of developing cognitive impairment over the five- to 10-year period.

There's a conundrum in predicting Alzheimer's: Lots of people harbor high levels of amyloid plaques yet never get dementia. A leading theory is that at some point amyloid buildup triggers an abnormal type of tau to form tangles, leading to symptoms.

Sperling said the blood test data offers some new clues. While different intermediate levels of p-tau217 signaled progressive risk, only the very highest level seemed to correlate with other evidence about that tipping point.

"This is a gradual process where amyloid and tau build up in the brain and this blood-based biomarker is telling you how far you are in that process," she said.

Some researchers say "not so fast"

Scientists not involved in the study praised it but also offered some reasons to be cautious. One is that only a small fraction of study participants had been tracked for a full decade, so there's less confidence in the 10-year risk estimate than the five-year risk estimate.

Also, the predictions could be clouded by other factors - older people may be at risk of dying from something else, or have heart-related problems that can cause vascular dementia rather than Alzheimer's, noted Drs. Suzanne Schindler of Washington University in St. Louis and David Wolk of the University of Pennsylvania in a commentary published in JAMA.

The blood tests "are not yet precise enough to guide individualized prognosis," wrote Schindler, who also studies p-tau217's prognostic potential, and Wolk. Still, they said the new work has "provided a crucial piece of the puzzle."

Already "we have people coming saying, 'I want this blood test. I have a family history of Alzheimer's disease,'" said Jessica Langbaum of the Banner Alzheimer's Institute in Phoenix, something she strongly discourages — for now.

"These findings are quite strong," Langbaum added, and a predictive blood test would be "really important" — but only if ongoing studies eventually find a drug that could help people before symptoms begin.
