We tell you what we know so far about the supposed iPhone 11 Pro that Apple would launch this week and about the asteroid - longer than some of the tallest buildings on our planet - that will pass near Earth on Saturday. This is what you need to know to start the day. First the truth.

1. Uncertain future for 70,000 in the Bahamas left homeless by Dorian

Tens of thousands of people have lost their homes in Abaco and Grand Bahama, according to the United Nations. A thousand tarps would be distributed to replace the roofs, said the International Organization for Migration. The powerful storm seems to have overwhelmed the authorities in the small island nation, leaving most of the first aid efforts in the hands of non-profit organizations in the Bahamas and US aid agencies. "I don't feel safe," Rolle said. “I don't see the authorities around. They say they are here, but honestly I don't see them ... there is a lot of chaos. Abacus is demolished. It's finished. We need help".

2. New iPhones may be released this week

Apple is expected to present its new iPhones on Tuesday, possibly including two “Pro” models with enhanced camera and video recording features. Apple could also give final details and prices for the launch of its Apple TV + service.

3. 18 years of September 11

This Wednesday marks 18 years since the terrorist attacks left almost 3,000 dead in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania. A ceremony is scheduled at 9/11 Memorial & Museum on the World Trade Center site. Communities and schools across the country will also pause to remember.

4. Online harassment of female journalists

Online harassment is the biggest security concern many women journalists face, according to Courtney Radsch, director of defense for the Committee to Protect Journalists. A new survey by the Committee for the Protection of Journalists on the perception that women journalists have of their own security and freedom in the United States and Canada highlights the risks journalists face in both countries that are not usually considered dangerous for the press, but where 85% of respondents said they feel less safe than five years ago.

5. Asteroid will pass close to Earth

It is longer than some of the tallest buildings on our planet. The diameter of the 2000 QW7 asteroid could measure 649 meters and would have a speed of 7,044 km / h when approaching this Saturday at 5,331,666 kilometers from Earth at 7:54 pm ET.
