The U.S. military hit targets in Iran, Saturday, it was the third round of strikes this
“week, and followed in Iranians' strike against a commercial ship in the Strait of”
Hormuz. Tensions in the region are continuing to increase, and Eranian, Tabataba, Yefses, that should come as no surprise. You have a regime that is much more emboldened today, much less willing to make concessions and uphold them when it comes to the United States, and is holding a grudge.
And so, on the U.S. side, you have a mercurial president who is also very keen to kind of react to whatever, you know, you see on the Iranians side. So this combo is bound to lead us to where we are as we speak. Tabataba Yefses with the Chicago Council on Global Affairs Iran now says the Strait of Hormuz is again closed.
In Texas, hundreds of people gathered in Houston this morning for a vigil honoring Lorenzo
Selgato Arahu, he was shot and killed during an ice encounter earlier this week. ISIS said the officer fired in self defense, but the other men in the car dispute the agencies account.

At the vigil Salgado Arahu Sun, Ronaldo, repeated his calls for accountability and transparency. I just want to continue, continue the pressure to continue obtaining a full independent investigation. Democratic representatives, Christian Manifee, Al Greene, Lizzy Fletcher, and Sylvia Garcia echoed those demands that we will continue to fight, where you complete independent talk to bottom investigation to find out exactly what happened.

From Pernus, I'm Bianca Seward, in Houston Some researchers say they're devastated by the Trump administration's recent changes to enforcement of the Endangered Species Act.
This comes after the administration finalized a rule Friday that eliminates a major protection for wildlife against logging, oil drilling and other activities. KQAD's Lunch Me Sarah reports from Berkeley. The change to the Endangered Species Act allows for development on wildlife habitats, as long as the animals aren't killed or injured.
Christopher Martin is a professor in the Integrative Biology Department at the University of California, Berkeley. His lab studies the Endangered Devils Hole Pubfish, found in Death Valley National Park in California and Nevada.
“It will be the death of the Endangered Species Act, right?”
Because the species cannot survive without its habitat, without its home. So without having those habitat protections in place, it's all out the window. Martin says this change could have impacts on species many people cherish. Like the bald eagle, California condor, and his own beloved Devil's Hole Pubfish.

And you're listening to NPR News. Many pair farmers in the Northwest say they're going into deep debt or getting out of the business. That's concerning, giving that 87% of all fresh U.S. pairs come from the Northwestern U.S. Northwest Public Broadcastings and a King has more.
Near Hood River, Oregon, Leslie Tamura grows pairs like her father, grandfather, and great grandfather, who immigrated from Japan. But like a lot of pair growers throughout Oregon and Washington, Tamura is going into debt. There are the rising cost of labor, a closed pair cannery, and the consolidation of supermarkets that drive down farmers' prices, she says.
All day, every day, everything that I'm trying to do, I have that feeling that I just cannot get rid of that, I may not be in this much longer. Oregon Governor Tina Kotak sent a letter to the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture requesting a federal disaster designation and market relief for Columbia Gorge Paragoras. For NPR News, I'm Anna King.
