Tensions have flared up again in the Strait of Hormuz as Iran accuses the U.S. of attacking its vessels, but the U.S. president said the ceasefire still holds (01:19). A global race is underway to track passengers on the hantavirus-hit cruise ship who disembarked before the outbreak (13:43). And starting May 11 through the end of the year, Chinese passport holders do not need a visa to travel to Brazil for purposes such as tourism and business (20:17).
