Reporter its the latest cyber attack on hospitals this year Prospect Medical holdings, which owns more than 170 medical facilities in california, pennsylvania, rhode island, and connecticut says it took its National Computer systems offline thursday after discovering the Ransomware Attack in a statement saying we are focused on addressing the pressing needs of our patients as we work diligently to return to normal operations as quickly as possible. The attack is forcing doctors and nurses to use pin and paper instead of computers some Outpatient Facilities have closed, and some effective surgeries canceled student nurse eduardo says he works at one of the affected hospitals. Its a whole commotion, going back to the start again. Something we could do two or three minutes on a c computer is taking forever now reporter the fbi is now investigating. Im concerned about being able to see my doctor and getting the updated lab reports. Reporter the prospect hack is one of about 275 Cyber Attacks on u. S. Health Care Organizations this year. According to john regi with the American Hospital association, he says the Recovery Process can often take weeks and disruptions can delay health care. Think about it. As ambulances may be diverted carrying stroke, heart attack, or trauma patients, that certainly increases the risk of a negative outcome. Reporter these increasing attacks have also impacted local government, schools, and businesses as hackers hold systems hostage, demanding payment to make them accessible again. And when hospitals are attacked, lives are threatened and our thanks to dana for that report. The latest on ukraine takes us to saudi arabia this morning, which hosted a peace summit for ukraine over the weekend and there was some surprising movement on the diplomatic front there. China joined the talks, signaling a possible new approach to moscow the communist party is reported to be in support of a third round of talks its an effort to finalize a tenpoint peace plan thats been endorsed by kyiv but not yet by the kremlin.

S. Waters according to u. S. Northern command, confirming to nbc news that air and sea assets conducted operations to ensure the defense of the United States and canada. It is the latest aggressive maneuver by the Chinese Military after this close call between chinese and american war ships in june in the Taiwan Strait and this chinese war plane dangerously close to an American Military plane in may. Last month lester holt visited norad in alaska where a top general there warned alaska was on the front lines.

Discovover the newew fefebreze scenents today welcome back pickleball is one of the Fastest Growing sports, but some homeowners say its one of the loudest theyve had lately i had the chance to take in the sights and sounds to try to find out what all that racket is about. Reporter these are the sounds of fun. [ laughter ] and fury its a staccato of almost like gunshots. Reporter as the game of pickleball has exploded throughout the country, so too has the noise. It starts at around 6 45, 7 00 sometimes goes on until about 9 00 Bruce Montgomery lives just feet from a court. When youre in your home and you hear that pop, pop, pop, what is your feeling its stress, you know its anxiety you find that you cant concentrate as well. Reporter the pickleball courts popped up in their neighborhood in the chicago suburbs over a year ago. Its like torture its constant. Reporter and its not just here its happening in laguna beach, california, where one resident clocked the sound at nearly 80 decibels thats roughly equal to the sound of big city traffic. It has destroyed our peace of mind it starts early morning, all day. Reporter and on cape cod, it was so bad, rob maoved out of hi home there are estimates there are probably less than 1 of all facilities out there that are experiencing this issue. What would you say to those people in those neighborhoods . Lets find a solution that includes the equipments and materials rather than closing the courts. Reporter some solutions are already out there, like theses the noise canceling paddles. Just outside chicago, theyve tried the get their town to move the courts out, but to no avail. Bruce doesnt blame the players for creating all this racket he blames the town most of the players we spoke to sympathized with the neighbors. I get it. I have a house too and i can understand that this can be kind of a hassle, waking you up at night, but in general, the people who do play, theyre pretty respectful. Reporter a growing court battle putting so many communities on n a pickle. Yeah, people very upset about that who knew that would be a problem along with it. I heard all new injury, right . New sport, new injuries from people taking it on. But now new problems too extra angle to deal w
