The latest came this afternoon from a the Consumer ProductSafety Commission and from samsung itself, warning owners of galaxy note 7 phones to stop using them after a series of fires linked to the phones lithium ion batteries. The alert comes on the heels of a warning from the faa against using the samsung phones on board planes, where the consequences of a burning or exploding phone could be catastrophic. Tom costello with what consumers need to know. Reporter with 2. 5 million phones under recall, the faa is telling consumers to turn off their phones and dont use them. This happened with my note 7. Reporter the lithium ion batteries can explode and catch fire. The owners of this jeep say the fire started when they left the phone charging inside. Tonights new warning from the Consumer Products Safety Commission power them down, stop charging or using them. Quote, when these batteries overheat and burst, the results can be serious. The new alert coming less than 24 hours after the faa warned anyone who flies, keep the phone turned off in flight, dont charge the batteries on board, and dont put it in a checked bag. The fear is that this thing may catch fire. And trying to put out a lithium battery fire on an aircraft is very, very difficult. Reporter this faa test demonstrated how quickly a lithium ion fire can spread. Responsible for a cat traffic fire on board a cargo plane in philadelphia and the loss of another ups plane and crew if dubai. Last year, hoverboards were banned on planes because of the fire risk. Lithium ion batteries are everywhere, from correctly phones to laptops to tablets. There are more batteries. There has to be a rising risk here. Reporter the Consumer ProductSafety Commission is working to elevate the recall. When that happens, the faa would go one step further and actually ban the galaxy note 7 on all commercial planes.

Kim jong un has carried out his Second Nuclear test in eight months. This one the strongest ever, triggering a 5. 3 earthquake, drawing global condemnation. Theres anger at the u. N. I condemn in the strongest possible terms. Reporter and fear in the u. S. That hes edging towards a Nuclear Missile that can hit america. Probably by the end of the first term of the person were electing this november, they are going to have the ability to put Nuclear Warheads on missiles that can reach the west coast of the United States. Reporter so how can the u. S. Respond . Directly attacking the underground Nuclear Sites is risky and unlikely. A cyberattack is an option. Tougher sanctions are possible too. But they didnt stop this test. More isolation . North korea is already isolated. Only allied china could punish it more. But south korea says it shows hes mentally under control, struggling to keep control, executing dozens of generals. The Nuclear Program is all about power and regime stability. With the purges that have happened over the past two years, the regime doesnt feel fully secure. Reporter president obama says there must be serious consequences for this test. But kim jong un seems not to care, projecting power, provoking, and so far paying no price. Bill neely, nbc news. Theres breaking news tonight from geneva where the u. S.

A live look this evening at the 9 11 memorial reflecting pools in lower manhattan. This sunday will mark 15 years since the twin towers which once stood on that site along with the pentagon and the pennsylvania countryside were struck by hijacked passenger planes. 2,996 people died in the attacks. Now looking back we can reflect on how much our country has been reshaped by the events of that horrible day. Its a question we still ask. Where are you that day . Javier was 13 and at home in new york when america was attacked. It made me feel afraid to go out. Now 28 and in the army, hes about to deploy to afghanistan, 15 years after the war on terror began. Its a little nervewracking. But im confident its going to be a good experience for me. I can go there and help out with the mission. The continuing u. S. Mission in afghanistan is just one of the lingering reminders of september 11th. That day changed all of us. It changed america. And it changed the world. Andy card was chief of staff for president george w. Bush at the time and was the one who whispered 11 words which would change the course of history. And i leaned over and whispered in his here, a second plane hit the second tower. America is under attack. President bush, after brief stops in louisiana and nebraska, returned to washington that evening. What was it like when you got back to the white house that night . The fog of war was still real. There was a high degree of concern. And were there other attacks coming. He would do what the primary job of the president is to do, to protect us. The white house tapped pennsylvania governor tom ridge to fundamentally reimagine the nations security. Did you have any sense what that would entail . Candidly, there was no blueprint, no architecture, no design. Agencies like the coast guard were realigned. Others were born, like the tsa. The department of Homeland Security was formed with secretary ridge at the helm. Americans came to learn the color coded terror alert system. Phrases like see something, Say Something became part of our vernacular. I think 9 11 elevated the role and responsibility of literally hundreds of thousands of americans who go to work every day in the government. Their job prior to 9 11 was to keep us safe, but there was a new level of alert and commitment in a post9 11 world. That world included fighter jets patrolling our skies, long Airport Security lines, patdowns to enter stadiums. Today Osama Bin Laden is dead. And we speak of the isis threat, not al qaeda. And americans like javier are still deploying to afghanistan. My biggest motivation is my wife and my family. I do this for them, to protect them. My predecessors risked so much for me to be here now. Yes, we still talk about where we were that september day. We also ask, are we safer . You were there at the beginning. 15 years later you look around you. Do you feel like we all are still living the lessons of 9 11 or have moved past it . I would like to think we have convinced ourselves that we are as resilient as advertised. Were not going to sacrifice our civil liberties, not sacrifice our privacy because were afraid. What the terrorists have any understood and will never understand is america is not going to surrender their freedom because we just dont live in fear. 15 years. Its been a long time but the pain still as fresh as the day it happened. That will do it on friday night. Im lester hold. For all of us on nbc nightly news, thanks for watching and good night. Hillary clinton im Hillary Clinton and i approve this message. Vo in times of crisis america depends on steady leadership. Donald trump knock the crap out of them, would you . Seriously. Vo clear thinking. Donald trump i know more about isis than the generals do, believe me. Vo and calm judgment. Donald trump and you can tell them to go fu k themselves.
