President Trump is threatening to bomb one power plant or bridge in Iran for every project
highly wrong launches at the Strait of Ormus. As we march, come as a U.S. and Iran have been trading attacks when nearly two weeks straight in PR's Emily Fang reports. Iran says the U.S. has hit power plants and several bridges are ready in the last week and a half of daily strikes, and Iran has bombed water-due salination plants and a gas
plant in the Gulf in retaliation. Under the Geneva Convention, which the U.S. is a signatory of, deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure could constitute a war crime. The renewed hostilities between the U.S. and Iran have slowed ship traffic through the Strait of Ormus, and vessel tracking data shows some ships making a U-turn in another

a blockade of that waterway this week, Emily Fang and Pernus. U.S. military says it is completed its latest round of strikes on Iran. U.S. Central Command says the strikes lasted five hours, and struck Iranian military targets. Meanwhile, Yemen's Iran aligned Houthi rebels are claiming attacks on two oil tankers in
the Red Sea. Thousands of federal advisory committees have been frozen or dismissed under President Trump in the last year. These are groups of experts who volunteer their time to help advise the federal government on complex issues, impures Katie a riddle reports. It's impossible to quantify science that did not happen, but research and advocacy groups say
that terminating these advisory groups will have consequences for decades. Michael Abrams is a health researcher at the advocacy group public citizen. Federal advisory committees is being really a way for us to harness the best and brightest
volunteers at the highest level for some of the most important questions.
“Committees that are no longer meeting include among others those on Alzheimer's research,”

Here's another way to put it. The U.S. has reported more measles cases in the last 18 months than in the previous 24 years combined. Last year, the case count broke 2000, a number not seen since 1992. The resurgence of measles comes amid falling vaccination rates, dr. William Moss of Johns
Hopkins says large outbreaks in South Carolina in Utah drove up case counts earlier this year. And we've continued to have a smaller outbreaks in other areas. So currently over the past two weeks, where largely seen cases is in central Virginia and in South Eastern Pennsylvania.
“Meanwhile, many local health departments are grappling with staff and funding cuts.”
You're listening to NPR news. An independent autopsy has failed to identify the cause of death for Nolan Wells, the 18-year old, whose body was found two days after he disappeared after a July 4th boat trip to an island up Mississippi. The autopsy was commissioned by Wells' family, civil rights attorney Ben Krom, says the
findings were limited because the body was received after the initial autopsy of Mississippi the results of which have not been released. Artificial intelligence, giant open AI says it's AI models went rogue during testing, triggering a significant security incident at a separate start-up company in Paris, Gen. McLaughlin reports. Experts at OpenAI say they were testing a combination of cutting-edge AI agents to see
if they could conduct sophisticated targeted cyber attacks when the test went wrong. In a new blog post, the company says the AI agent was contained in internal digital testing environment when it managed to find a way to connect to the open internet and then broke into another AI company called Hugging Face. It's unclear what specific technical instructions or prompts open AI engineers were using
that led to the incident, though Hugging Face says it detected and contained the attack quickly. OpenAI argues that the incident reveals the real-world capabilities of AI agents to conduct long-running complex cyber attacks and the importance of building safeguards into frontier models.
Gen. McLaughlin. And here, news.
Finally, to Paris, where the Loub Museum's Apollo Gallery reopened visitors Wednesday,
nine months after the highest of the French crown jewels, the Apollo Gallery, one of the Loub's most historic spaces for people who have been charged in the highest most of the crown jewels that remain unrecovered.
