“Everything will be all right.” Ukrainian soldier Serhii Hryhoriev said this so often during brief phone calls from the front that his wife and two daughters took it to heart.

Police dashboard and body camera footage, obtained by The Associated Press, appears to show two escapees — Leo Tate, 31, and Jermaine Donald, 42 — fleeing from police, reaching speeds up to 80 mph (129 kph), in a white SUV in Walker County, Texas.
