Today in News History
On July 13, several notable moments in the history of News stand out. In 1863, American Civil War: The New York City draft riots begin three days of rioting which will later be regarded as the worst in United States history. In 1907, George Weller, American author, playwright, and journalist (died 2002) was born. In 1922, Martin Dies Sr., American journalist and politician (born 1870) passed away. In 1941, World War II: Montenegrins begin the Trinaestojulski ustanak (Thirteenth of July Uprising), a popular revolt against the Axis powers. In 1977, Somalia declares war on Ethiopia, starting the Ogaden War. In 1981, Martin Hurson Irish Republican Hunger Striker passed away. In 1990, Lenin Peak disaster: a 6.4-magnitude earthquake in Afghanistan triggers an avalanche on Lenin Peak, killing 43 climbers in the deadliest mountaineering disaster in history. In 1993, Davey Allison, American race car driver (born 1961) passed away. In 2011, Mumbai is rocked by three bomb blasts during the evening rush hour, killing 26 and injuring 130. In 2024, President of the United States Donald Trump is injured in an assassination attempt while speaking at an election campaign rally near Butler, Pennsylvania. Together, these milestones provide historical context for today's news news and ongoing narratives.
