So glad you are with us, everyone. I'm Catherine Callaway at the CNN Center with a look at what's happening NOW IN THE NEWS.


 


And we begin in Belgrade, the Serbian capital, State Department officials, saying that Serbian police have now secured the perimeter 1 of the US Embassy there, saying, according to them, are under control. They were completely out of control a bit earlier though, protestors, angry about Kosovo's declaration of independence, attacked the US Embassy. The embassy was closed when demonstrators set fire to the building and broke a number of windows there. Riot police backed by armored vehicles fired tear gas to disperse 2 the crowd. Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia on Sunday. And the move is recognized and supported by the United States and its western allies. But it is rejected by the Serbian government and minority Serbs that within Kosovo.


 


In Pakistan, the leaders of two parties that won big in this week's elections today announce they will work together to form a new government. That will be very interesting. One party used to be led by Benazir Bhutto and the other's leader is former Prime Minister Nawaz Sherif who was kicked out of office by Pakistan's current president Pervez Musharraf whose party was beaten in those elections.


 


A helicopter carrying three US senators has made an emergency landing in Afghanistan. Senators John Kerry, and Joseph Biden, both for Democrats 3 along with Republican Chuck Hagel are visiting Afghanistan on the trip that will also include stops in India, Pakistan and Turkey. The Kerry 's spokesman says the helicopter was forced down in the mountains because of bad weather. A source on Capitol Hill tells us none of the senators were injured.


 


Defense 4 Secretary Robert Gates says that the US is prepared to give China some information on the shoot-down of that dead satellite. China has complained about the operation, suggesting it may have been an anti-satellite weapon's test. And the satellite had been slipping out of orbit for a number of months. It was destroyed because its fuel tank was full of toxic 5, a toxic propellant called hydrazine. The US military says it may take another day or two to definitively 6 determine whether or not a missile fired by a Navy cruiser hit the tank.


 


Grey wolves have completed their comeback. The Interior Department has taken them off Endangered Species List and will allow them to be hunted because they are, well, acting 7 like wolves now. And estimated 1, 500 wild grey wolves are roaming free in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming where there are increasing complaints of wolf attacks on livestock 8 there. In Montana some regulations have been approved, but no hunting permits have been issued. The possibility that opponents will file a lawsuit 9 is putting plans for a wolf hunt on hold. Idaho and Wyoming have discussed hunting but have not set regulations.


 


Those are the headlines for you this hour. Stay with CNN for more on these stories and other news of the day.
