Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Wilman.

A Trump administration draft report released Friday, suggests replacing the concept of separating

church and state with the idea of building bridges between them. The report was issued by the Religious Liberty Commission, which was created by Trump and filled with primarily conservative Christians. Religious relief is going up if that were a stock would be very, very rich. All of us, it's been great to watch and, as I've said before, to be a great nation, you

have to have religion and you have to have God in your nation.

If you don't have that, it just doesn't seem to work out, does it? The draft is open for 15 days for public comment. Xi'ai Muslims were marking a sure this week with large gatherings in Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, and other parts of the world. The annual commemoration remembers the seven-century killing of Hussein, the grandson of

Islam's prophet Muhammad, ashore as the culmination of a 10-day morning period. Israeli ministers and former officials have been encouraging people in Gaza to demonstrate against Hamas. More than a dozen places across the territory were announced as rallying points. But on Friday, the day of the so-called June 26 revolution, no one showed up and appears

on a spot. It's unclear who was behind the campaign, but it failed to get Palestinians in the streets to protest Hamas, which says it's 3D to hand over governance to a technocratic committee as part of President Trump's peace plan.

3D months into the ceasefire, living condition remained incredibly dire.

Hamas still retained some control over the territory and has used force in the past to suppress protests. But for Palestinians in Gaza today, food, shelter, and water are their top priorities. And people who say they largely blame Israel for a daily earth strikes and tight restrictions on the entry of basic supplies.

Just today, and Israeli earth strike killed three local police officers on the streets. And while Israel has owned local militias to fight Hamas, leading to further violence in Gaza, and a small bowl of anti-news, Gaza City. Members of South Florida's Venezuelan community, which is the largest concentration of

Venezuelans in the U.S., are organizing relief efforts after two back-to-back, powerful

earthquake struck that country on Wednesday. Hell in Ossovado, a member of the station, W. L. R.N. as our reports. Officials in Darrell have partnered with local non-profits and small businesses to collect necessities, like non-perishable food, bottled water, and pep food.

Freddie Salor Sano is president of the International Coalition for Venezuela.

He says, rescue efforts in Venezuela will require international assistance. Ad from developed nations, he says, is needed to rescue people who are still alive but trapped beneath the rubble. Salor Sano says, one of the biggest concerns among the community is making sure donations reach people directly affected by the disaster.

Darrell officials have asked the public to donate only through official channels. For NPR News, I'm Helena Seville in Miami. And this is NPR News. A small plane hit Beijing's tallest building Friday. It's unclear how many people were injured at Fanny, police have set up barriers around

the affected skyscrapers and PR's Jennifer Pack reports. Police officers tell me no cars, bikes, or pedestrians allowed on a major road that leads to the building, without saying why. Videos from the scene online showed debris falling from the tower after impact. The plane's tail section was also seen on the ground.

Many of these have been scrubbed from Chinese social media. Hours later, I cycle around the building area. There's nothing you can really see with the building, it's quite dark. The lights are still on, on a few floors, but otherwise, you can't see much. Much barrier has at least a dozen officers guarding it.

The Chinese authorities have not commented on the incident. It's unclear whether it was an accident or intentional. Jennifer Pack and PR News Beijing. Metzmanager Carlos Mendoza was fired Friday and was replaced by Andy Greene, New Yorker's 34 and 47 following a six-game losing streak.
