Delta flight to Shanghai turns back midair; Loans for babies: China's population woes

A key U.S. ally in the Middle East is reportedly making its own missiles with Chinese technology. A move that could complicate the regional power struggle.

A sudden change of China's virus control policy sent a U.S. flight turning back in midair. The incident put some of the passengers in limbo—most of whom are Chinese.

13 million people were locked down in one northern Chinese city. The move follows a pandemic surge, sparking panic buying and other forms of chaos.

In an unprecedented move, a Chinese province is offering 'baby loans' to address population problems. That means couples with multiple children can apply for as much as $31,000.

And in a Christmas Eve announcement, Japan revealed it won’t be sending government officials to the Beijing Olympics. But, they’re not calling it a boycott.
