  Motorists are being asked by the Midland County Emergency Management Department to avoid the area near the intersection of 1379 and ECR 200, due to a significant oil spill at the intersection causing a hazardous situation and necessitating immediate attention from local authorities and emergency response teams.
  

  
  
  The spill is believed to have occurred due to the opening of valves on oil tanks, resulting in the release of a substantial amount of oil along the route from ECR 200 to 1090. This incident has led to multiple crashes, prompting the Department of Public Safety (DPS) to work on those accidents.

• Why Venezuela wants to annex a chunk of Guyana
  Venezuela is claiming two-thirds of neighboring country Guyana...
  Venezuela is claiming two-thirds of neighboring country Guyana as its own following a recent referendum vote on a land dispute that dates back to the 19th century. While the contested border region of Essequibo is mostly jungle, the oil off its coast is likely what spurred Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to include it in a new map of the country he presented this week. Guyana recently opened bidding to oil multinationals looking to help it boost drilling.
  
  Maduro proposed a law that would put Essequibo’s oil under the jurisdiction of a Venezuelan state company and give foreign operators three months to cease their activities. But unless he’s prepared to use force, it seems like Maduro’s moves may just be symbolic.
  
  “You have nothing to worry about,” Guyana’s President Irfaan Ali tried to assure international investors. The country has put its military on alert and asked for support from the UN Security Council, as well as regional powers like the US and Brazil.
