Iran says it's closed the straight-up or moose because Israel continues to attack Lebanon.
“But Israel says Lebanon was never part of the two-week ceasefire deal in the U.S.”
Israeli war in Iran, and the White House says keeping the straight closed would be completely unacceptable. Press Secretary Caroline Levitt also says public claims it already "reclosed the straight aren't true." We have seen an uptick of traffic in the straight-to-day, and I will reiterate the President's
expectation and demand that the straight-of-remuse is reopened immediately, quickly and safely. That is his expectation, and it has been relayed to him privately, that that is what's taking place in these reports publicly our false.
She says by President Francis heading to Islamabad, Pakistan, along with special envoy Steve
Whitkoff, and President Trump's son-in-law, Jerry Kushner, for talks this weekend. After a Gulf state say they've intercepted Iranian attacks this morning after that ceasefire
“was announced, and Iran says there was, quote, "An enemy attack on an oil refinery."”
If you're as I have a trolley reports, Israel's military says it wasn't behind that strike on Iran. Despite the ceasefire, Iran says its levon oil refinery was attacked Wednesday around 10 a.m. local time, and Gulf countries reported interceptions of Iranian drones and missiles. Kuwait's army said drone attacks caused significant damage to oil facilities, power stations,
and water desalination plants, and people were wounded from fallen debris in Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, where its main gas complex also caught fire.
And according to the Financial Times and Reuters Saudi Arabia's critical east-west oil
pipeline was attacked. This all comes as Israel says dropped more than 160 bombs on Lebanon's Hezbollah Wednesday. Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps says Israel's attacks threaten the ceasefire and could lead to cancellation of a U.S. Iran meeting Friday.

Hosted attorney general Pam Bondi's deposition before a GOP-led house committee has been postponed. And here's glad a good result is reports. The panel will work with her personal attorney to set up a new date as part of its probe into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Bondi was scheduled to testify before the house oversight committee next week. However, Chairman James Comer says he'll have to negotiate a new date with Bondi's personal attorney. Several Democrats on the panel said they would push to hold Bondi in contempt of Congress if he does not appear, but Republicans so far don't appear willing to move that forward.
The now former attorney general is part of a long list of witnesses scheduled to appear before the panel in the coming weeks under the force of a subpoena, or voluntarily for transcribed interviews regarding Epstein, that includes Comer's Secretary Howard Lottnick, and former Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, who are both appearing behind close-doors voluntarily.
Both have been mentioned in the Epstein files released so far, clarity to silence and be our news. You're listening to NPR News from Washington. ADHD is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that's been linked to worse performance in school and lower attendance in higher education.
But a new study finds that people who receive their ADHD diagnoses at a younger age tend to have better educational outcomes than those diagnosed later in their teen years. And here's Maria Gadoi has more. The new study is based on data from Finland, where researchers had access to medical and educational information for some 580,000 people born between 1990 and 1999.
Finland has universal health care, and nearly all children are regularly screened for ADHD every few years beginning around age 4. The country's universal education system allowed researchers to see how kids who received an ADHD diagnosis fared in school over time. They found that people who got diagnosed with ADHD at an earlier age had a better grade
point average by age 16 and were less likely to drop out of school. The study appears in the journal "Jama Psychiatry." Maria Gadoi and Perenius General Motors is recalling more than 270,000 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles because the rearview camera screen may display a distorted or blank image which could increase the chance of an accident, though GM says it's not aware of any injuries or
crashes because of the problem. GM says moisture could get into the camera mount on the Chevy Malibu weakening the bond. That recall includes model years 2023 through 2025. I'm Janine Herbst, and you're listening to NPR News from Washington. I read the other day in an economics book.
