U.N. options exhausted on Korean Peninsula nuclear issue: U.S. ambassador

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley has warned that the world body has "exhausted" its options on the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue.

Meanwhile, the White House says the United States and South Korea have agreed to increase pressure on North Korea after its latest missile test.

North Korea confirmed that it conducted another medium-range ballistic missile test on Friday.

Odinga says he will crisscross the country in a campaign to explain to his supporters why the current commission cannot be trusted to oversee a free and fair election.

Tropical Storm Maria expected to turn into Category-3 Hurricane

Tropical Storm Maria is expected to become a hurricane as it heads toward Caribbean islands, which were battered by Hurricane Irma earlier this month.

The US National Hurricane Center said as of Sunday afternoon, Maria was about 650 kilometers southeast of the Leeward Islands, moving toward the Caribbean at 24 kilo-meters per hour.

Maria is expected to reach closer to Leeward Islands in the northeast Caribbean Sea, and hit islands including St. Martin, St. Barts and Antigua, which were devastated by Irma.

Forecasters said Maria will likely become a major Category-3 storm by mid-week, as it approaches Lesser Antilles and the Virgin Islands, before moving to Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Haiti.

It's still early to predict Maria's influence over the southern United States or its coastline.
