The U.S. military is enforcing a blockade on Iran's ports in the state of Hormuz.
“Vice President J.D. Vance, who led U.S. P. stocks with Iran over the weekend, left”
the host country Pakistan, without securing an agreement to end the 45-day conflict. Meanwhile, the war death toll is in the thousands, Durya Baskar and reports Iranian officials say more than 220 children were killed in the weeks before a tentative ceasefire was announced last Wednesday. The numbers are similar to statistics released by a U.S. based human rights organization,
Hrona, which relies on a network of activists inside Iran. The head of Iran's emergency medical services told state TV that 18 of the children who died were under the age of five. The majority of children killed since February 28, died in the bombing of a primary school in
the southern city of Minab, on the first day of the war.
Global investigations, including NPR's reporting, showed the U.S. was responsible. The U.S. military has denied attacking civilians, and the Israeli army says it directs its strikes at military targets.
“Frank Pannews, I'm Dury Baskar, an Istanbul President Trump says he will not apologize”
for criticizing Pope Leo after the pontiff publicly opposed the war. Trump says, quote, "You cannot have a nuclear Iran," taking reporter's questions today. Trump was also asked about an AI-generated image online widely interpreted, as a President depicting himself as Jesus Christ. I did first it, and I thought it was me as a doctor, and had to do with red crosses, a red
cross-worker there, which we support, and only the fake news could come up with that one. So, I just heard about it, and I said, "How did they come up with that?" It's supposed to be me as a doctor, making people better. And I do make people better, and make people a lot better.
A federal judge in Florida has dismissed President Trump's private $10 billion lawsuit
against the Wall Street Journal, several reporters, and its controlling owners, a report and local in Murdoch.
“Trump sued over an article from last July about a body birthday greeting two decades ago”
to the late-convicted sexiff at a Jeffrey Epstein. Here's NPR's David Folk and Flick. The Journal reported the greeting was part of a celebratory book put together in 2003 for Epstein's 50th birthday by his girlfriend, She Lane Maxwell. Trump said it was fake and sued, as a private citizen, though the Murdoch's are his political
allies. U.S. district court judge Darren Gales wrote that Trump had failed to alleged sufficiently that the Journal had acted with what's called actual malice, even knowledge a story is false or failure to seek the truth. Gales found that Journal had made numerous efforts to verify its reporting and included Trump's
denial. The judge left the door open to Trump refiling the suit, however, and a spokesperson for his legal team tells NPR it will do just that. David Folk and Flick and PR news. You're listening to NPR news.
President Trump's reversing course when it comes to the rainbow pride flag, the administration says it will re-coise the flag at the Stonewall National Monument in New York City. Red Light Therapy is a hot wellness trend on social media to sold in panels, face masks, haircaps, lawns, and PR's Maria Gadoi reports when it comes to its touted benefits for hair growth and skin rejuvenation.
There is science to back the hype. Dr. Zikia Ramon at Stanford says it can be challenging to distinguish science from hype when it comes to red light therapy devices into consumers. As for the therapy itself, there is actual real science, it's not science fiction. That science is based on how red light which occupies the longer wavelengths on the visible
light spectrum stimulates energy production inside mitochondria so that cells work better. Ramon says there's solid research to show after months of regular use, red light therapy can improve fine lines and wrinkles and promote hair growth in people with pattern hair loss. But the results won't be dramatic.
