What is the finding reported in the news?
16. Researchers have found that a substance used in toothpaste could be developed to fight drug-resistant forms of the disease malaria.

Scientists from Britain’s Cambridge University reported their findings in the journal Scientific Reports.
17. A huge iceberg, seven times the size of New York City, broke off of Antarctica, scientists said Wednesday. The iceberg that broke away is 5,800-square-kilometers large. It is described as weighing 1 trillion tons. That is about the same volume as the great Lake Erie between Canada and the U. S. Scientists at the University of Swansea in Britain described the iceberg as one of the largest ever recorded. It broke off from the Larsen C ice shelf over the last few days.
18. British Prime Minister Teresa May has officially started the process for Britain to leave the European Union (EU). May sent a letter to European Council President Donald Tusk on Wednesday.

Article 50 deals with how a member country can withdraw from the organization. May’s letter noted the historic nationwide vote on EU membership last year. It said the British people had not voted to " harm the European Union or any of the remaining member states. "
