Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is heading to the U.S. tomorrow to meet with
“President Trump and talk about the Iran War.”
There's been a pause for the last two days in American strikes on Iran, but Israel has indicated it's willing to join the U.S. fight if military actions escalate. It appears Emily Fang reports. Netanyahu convened a cabinet meeting before departing for the U.S. where he'll attend the funeral of the late Senator Lindsey Graham, who was staunchly pro-Israel, and
then Netanyahu will meet Trump on Tuesday. Iran's military spokesperson said Tehran believes Israel is trying to push the U.S. to
expand attacks on Iran, and in his really poll last month, more than 90 percent of his
rarely said they believed that now a band and ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran favored Iranian interests. In addition to Iran, Netanyahu is concerned about a nuclear energy agreement the U.S. just signed with Saudi Arabia, something Israel has long opposed, because they fear the kingdom
“a one day try to develop a nuclear weapon.”

German authorities say the suspect who drove a vehicle into a crowd near Berlin's annual private event is dead after shots were fired during a confrontation, as my Nicholson has more. Police shot and killed 21-year-old Abdul Balaut in a gardener lotment on the outskirts of Berlin
on Sunday evening. Prosecutors say evidence was mounting to suggest the incident, which
killed one and injured at least 29 others, was an Islamist Tehrat attack. Balaut, a German national with Lebanese heritage, attempted to join Islamic State Group on a trip to Lebanon last year, in May, a court in Berlin convicted Balaut of preparing a serious act of violence and handed down a suspended sentence. He had been released while prosecutors appealed. The Trump administration is said to

“The move, which could come as soon as tomorrow, could mean deportation.”
And here's Adrian Floreto reports, many fear being sent back to a country full of violence. Last month, the Supreme Court allowed the administration to end temporary protected status for 350,000 Haitians and 6,000 Serians. TPS has allowed them to live and work in the U.S. because of dangerous conditions in their countries. The U.S. is ending TPS for Haitians despite acknowledging the dangers. Much of Haiti is controlled by armed gangs.

Christopher Nolan's film "The Odyssey" is playing on more than 25,000 screens worldwide, a broad release that will get broader when China, Japan and Korea open the film next month. And here's Bob Mandela reports, audiences appear to crave an epic experience. Nolan Superfans are touting the virtues of seeing the Odyssey on one of the mere 41 screens,
25 in the U.S. and another 16 abroad, that are equipped to play 70 millimeter IMAX film the format the Odyssey was shot in. But there are plenty of what the industry calls premium large format auditoriums, including digital IMAX and conventional 70 millimeter. They represent about 1% of Odyssey's showings, but because audiences are eager to see the film on the biggest possible screen, that 1%
is pulling in 20% of ticket sales. That means that after creating special cameras so that Nolan could shoot the Odyssey entirely on IMAX film, which is a Hollywood first, the company now has a fresh challenge. It is racing to fill construction orders for dozens of new IMAX auditoriums, Bob Mandela and PR news. In second and third place at the weekend box office, it was close with Disney's Moana,
