1:11Now PlayingMay 12, 2022: Finland seeks NATO membership 'without delay,’ Abortion bill fails in U.S. Senate, N.Korea COVID case, Native American boarding schools, Shanghai
1. Finland said it would apply to join NATO "without delay," with Sweden expected to follow, as Russia's invasion of Ukraine looked set to bring about the very expansion of the Western military alliance that Vladimir Putin aimed to prevent.
2. Legislation to make abortion legal throughout the United States was defeated in the U.S. Senate, amid solid Republican opposition.
3. North Korea reported its first COVID-19 outbreak, calling it the "gravest national emergency" and ordering a national lockdown, with state media saying an Omicron variant had been detected in the capital, Pyongyang.
4. A U.S. government investigation into the dark history of Native American boarding schools has found "marked or unmarked burial sites" at 53 of them, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said.
5. Beijing denied it was heading for lockdown as panic buying gripped the capital on Thursday, while Shanghai combed the city for lingering COVID-19 cases in the hope of clearing the way to escape from weeks of painful restrictions.
