President Trump called off more attacks on Iran this weekend and speaking with reporters
on Air Force One Sunday. He explained why.
“"It says to my Saudi Arabia, UAE, and by car, and by a rent.”
We were all sent to go, it's about at this time right now, and what have been the best of attack. We're all sent to go, but when the allies asked to call it off, they got us out of say, "Well, it's the reason they asked us to think there's a deal." Trump said Saturday that the deal includes the reopening of the straight-of-four moves
and addressing U.S. concerns about Iran's nuclear program negotiations toward a ceasefire are expected to resume soon. Firefighters in Spokane, Washington, are starting to make progress on some of the wildfires burning in and around that city, Doug Nadvornick from Spokane Public Radio reports that
three major places have burned more than 7,000 acres at the city's edges.
Fire crews are expecting a big break on Monday when the brisk winds that whipped flames into a frenzy over the weekend exit the area. Mandatory evacuation areas that reach well into Spokane's city limits are still in effect, but some of the evacuation levels have been downgraded as crews gain more control.
“While the gusty winds are going away, there are two new aggravating factors.”
The wind is expected to shift directions and blow wildfires smoke into the city, and temperatures are expected to creep back up into the 90s by midweek. As of Sunday night, more than 600 structures have burned, but officials say they have no evidence anyone has been killed or hurt by the wildfires. For NPR News, I'm Doug Nadvornick in Spokane.
Residents of Cairo were waken from their sleep Sunday morning by an earthquake that shook buildings around 3 a.m. local time. As NPR's eye of a trial, he tells us there are no immediate reports of injuries or collapsed buildings in the Egyptian capital. The U.S. geological survey says this one hit at a depth of six miles, just northeast of the
Suez Canal. It says the Quakes magnitude topped 5.0. In Cairo, more than 100 miles west of the epicenter, Panic residents felt their buildings swaying in the middle of the night. The earthquake was also felt east of the Suez Canal and parts of the Palestinian Gaza
strip and in southern Israel, according to local media there. Earthquakes are rare in Egypt, but not unheard of. A 1992 Quake killed more than 500 people in injured thousands more in Cairo.

A defund part of a SpaceX rocket has expected to slam into the moon this week, and Pyre's Shondalee's duster has more on its impact. Scientists say a piece of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will slam into the moon early Wednesday
morning. This part of the rocket carried two lunar landers and scientific instruments to the moon in January 2025. Bill Gray, an astronomer who developed software that tracks objects in space, says it will hit the moon around 2.35 a.m. Eastern time, at more than 5,000 miles per hour.
SpaceX did not intend for the piece to hit the moon according to the Associated Press. NPR has reached out to SpaceX for comment, but is not received a response. Scientists say the piece is expected to hit a sunlit side of the moon facing Earth, and the initial impact could be challenging to see even with professional telescopes.
