[00:00.00]A Korean nationalist stabbed
[00:03.94]the U.S. ambassador to South Korea on Thursday.
[00:07.43]The knife attack, which took place in Seoul,
[00:10.43]has left Ambassador Mark Lippert with 80 stitches in his face.
[00:15.77]Ambassador Lippert is listed in stable condition.
[00:19.53]Doctors operated to repair a deep cut in his face
[00:23.45]and cuts to his left hand.
[00:25.76]The U.S. State Department said Thursday
[00:28.70]the reason for the attack is still unknown.
[00:32.63]The attacker, Kim Ki-jong, reportedly told police he acted alone.
[00:38.61]When he attacked the ambassador, he reportedly said,
[00:42.61]"South and North Korea should be reunified!"
[00:46.71]North Korea called the attack on the ambassador
[00:50.09]"just punishment" of the U.S.
[00:52.64]for holding joint military exercises with South Korea.
[00:57.40]Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
[01:01.52]was criticized this week for using her personal e-mail
[01:06.03]in her duties as America's top diplomat.
[01:09.62]On Wednesday, the Associated Press reported
[01:13.14]that Ms. Clinton had also used a personal e-mail server
[01:17.22]based in her family's home in New York.
[01:20.61]The State Department says Ms. Clinton
[01:23.67]may have violated federal record laws
[01:26.38]that require archiving official government documents.
[01:30.41]Most public officials use government e-mail addresses.
[01:36.15]Late Wednesday night,
[01:37.88]Ms. Clinton answered the criticism on social media.
[01:41.51]She tweeted "I want the public to see my email.
[01:45.36]I asked State to release them.
[01:48.18]They said they will review them for release as soon as possible."
[01:53.02]Liberia has released its last confirmed Ebola patient,
[01:58.12]with no new cases reported for more than a week.
[02:01.82]A Chinese-run Ebola treatment center
[02:04.75]in the Liberian capital, Monrovia, released Beatrice Yardolo on Thursday.
[02:11.13]She told the Associated Press
[02:13.21]she is "one of the happiest persons on Earth today."
[02:17.00]The World Health Organization said Liberia,
[02:21.16]for the first time since last May,
[02:23.60]reported no new confirmed cases last week.
[02:28.16]The country must complete 42 days with no new cases reported
[02:33.47]before it can be called Ebola-free.
