"Li from NPR News in Washington, I'm Louise Skivone.
President Trump says a p-steel between the U.S. and Iran will be signed tomorrow, but
nothing is finalized yet."
“NPR's Deepa Shiver-on reports it comes after a week of re-agnited tensions in the region,”
though both sides have wanted to see an end to the conflict that the U.S. and Israel started. Trump posted on social media saying the deal is scheduled to be signed tomorrow, Pakistan, which has been facilitating the deal also indicating an imminent agreement that would be signed virtually, but details are still not yet clear on what the agreement will contain. Trump says immediately after signing the deal, the straight-of-horn moves would be "open
to all," and that the agreement will ensure Iran has no nuclear weapon. Trump is also scheduled to meet with allies in the region, including Qatar and Egypt, while at the G7 summit in the coming days. Deepa Shiver-on and PR News. The Artificial Intelligence Company and Thropic has abruptly shut down its latest AI models.
This after the Trump administration late Friday banned the use of those models by foreign nationals, and PR's John Ruittch reports. According to a statement from anthropic, the government's directive cited unspecified national security concerns. It ordered a suspension of access by foreign nationals to anthropics, fable five, and mythos
“five models that includes foreigners inside and outside the US and even foreigners working”
for anthropic. The mythos AI model has been a source of buzz in recent months, anthropic decided not to release it to the public in March because the company believed it could potentially help hackers exploit computer security flaws. So it came up with a workaround, Fable 5, an advanced model with extensive safeguards
was released this week. anthropic says it thinks the government is concerned that there may be a way to jailbreak the model to get around those safeguards, but anthropic says it disagrees with the ban. John Ruittch and PR News.
In the city of Boonia, in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, teams of volunteers go door to door every day to raise awareness about Ebola. But despite efforts to contain the virus, it is spreading, and at Livingstone reports. In Boonia, in a Tory province, the epicenter of the Ebola outbreak, people no longer greet each other with a handshake.
“Teams of volunteers have been going door to door to raise awareness about the disease.”
City residents consistently tell the volunteers that they don't have the money to buy disinfectant and they implore the government for help. Official figures say that 139 people have died from Ebola, but the actual number is probably far higher. On Friday afternoon, a man riding on the back of a motorbike taxi in Boonia, bombeted
blood, and then died on the street. His driver fled the scene. Although his death hasn't yet been confirmed as due to Ebola, stories of similar incidents have become common, and there's a feeling that people are increasingly wary. For NPR News, I'm Emmett Livingstone in Boonia.
This is NPR. In Santa Clara, California, on day 3 of World Cup competition Qatar faces Switzerland, in addition to the athletic competition there will be a lot of attention to the weather Steve Futterman has to tell. Weather conditions during the World Cup competition have been a concern leading up to the
event. In Santa Clara, the National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory. Temperatures could reach 88 degrees, and on the field with the stadium trapping the hot air, it could get even higher. There will be two hydration breaks.
Researchers are also being allowed to wear cooling vests, designed to lower body temperature when they are not actually on the field. In the match itself, Switzerland, which is ranked number 19, is the favorite against 56th rank Qatar.
Four years ago, as the host nation, Qatar lost all three matches, becoming only the second
host nation to fail to advance out of the group stage of the World Cup. For NPR News, I'm Steve Futterman, in Los Angeles. There were rival demonstrations in Rome today, surrounding the issue of migration and new EU rules governing the issue. Several thousand rallied for a far-right agenda seeking sweeping reversals of migration.
These include coercive returns and incentives to leave Italy, and some broader policy that the ZAC critics say could even affect people in Italy with legal status. Opponents argue that proposed measures are unconstitutional, targeting people based on ethnic backgrounds, including naturalized citizens and their descendants, later in the day left wing groups gathered by the thousands to support migrants.
I'm Luis Kivone and PR News. This is our glass. On this American life, when they mean like, it's a good mystery. Sometimes it's about really big things. But most times, the little mysteries are the best.
Our lost and found is currently filled with pants.
I don't know what I've never seen this happen, this is true.
