Multiple U.S. service members were wounded in an Iranian missile strike on Prince Sultan

Air Base in Saudi Arabia today, that's according to an official not authorized to speak publicly.

Some aircraft were possibly damaged as well.

The Wall Street Journal first reported on the strike saying 10 service members were

wounded, with two considered seriously wounded.

Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries haven't joined the U.S. and Israeli-led war.

G7 nations meeting in France have agreed to help secure the passage of ships in the

Strait of Hormuz, but only once hostilities end.

NPR's Eleanor Beardsley reports it's not the full-furted support President Trump was

looking for, but U.S. allies refused to be drawn into the conflict.

Europeans were not informed about the U.S. Israel bombing campaign and still don't

know U.S. goals for the war.

Speaking after the summit, French Foreign Minister Jean-Nuel Barrow admitted, escorts

for ships will be necessary once the fighting stops.

Talking to reporters on the tarmac as he left France, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio

insisted it's everybody's responsibility to counter Iran's blockade of the Strait

of Hormuz.

Still, no one knows how and when the conflict will end.

President Trump has signed an order to temporarily pay TSA agents who have worked without pay

during the government shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, meanwhile House Republicans

have rejected a bill that passed the Senate to fund most of DHS through September.

The funding lapse is in its 42nd day and created long lines at many airports.

Republicans are angry that the Senate bill would not fund ICE and Border Patrol Democrats

say they won't fund those departments without changes to immigration enforcement.

House Speaker Mike Johnson says the House will instead vote tonight on a resolution to

fund DHS at current levels until May, as NPR's Barbara Sprunt explains.

First, it has to pass the House.

They're going to try to tee up a vote for that later this evening.

If it does pass, then, of course, it has to pass the Senate and senators have already

left for a two-week recess.

But the calendar aside, there is a political reality here as well for Senate Democrats.

They refuse to vote for anything that funds ICE.

That was their whole premise to begin with with the shutdown.

So I think it's very unlikely that they would suddenly change course.

NPR's Barbara Sprunt reporting more than seven million student loan borrowers who have been

enrolled in a Biden-era repayment plan will receive notices with instructions to seek

a new plan to repay their debt.

The SAVE plan was struck down by a federal court this month, starting July 1, loan

servicers will issue notices giving borrowers 90 days to select a new repayment plan.

The Trump administration has called the plan unlawful loan forgiveness.

U.S. stocks close down today.

A pro-Iranian hacking group claims it hacked an account of FBI director Cash Patel and

has posted online would appear to be his old personal photographs and documents, including

a resume.

The group posted a message taking credit for the breach.

The FBI says the data involves no government information.

Golf or Tiger Woods was arrested on suspicion of DUI today after a crash near his home on

Jupiter Island, Florida.

Sophia Baltedano of Member Station WLRN has more.

The Martin County Sheriff's Office say Woods showed signs of impairment at the scene

of the crash in which he struck another vehicle and rolled over.

Authorities say Woods and the other driver were not injured.

Woods is also facing another misdemeanor charge of refusal to submit a lawful test.

While Woods took a breath analyzer test, which registered nothing, police say he refuses

to submit a urine sample.

The accident marks the third time Woods has been involved in a car crash.

In February 2021, his SUV ran off a coaster road in Los Angeles, causing multiple leg

and ankle injuries.

He was also arrested on a DUI charge in 2017, when South Florida police found him asleep

behind the wheel.

Residents of a Missouri town can finally breathe easier, according to St. Louis Public

Radio crews have removed a wrecked semi-truck full of tofu that have been stinking up a

stretch of highway and central Missouri for weeks.

The truck's load became increasingly pungent as temperatures rose.

One person wrote that it smelled like catfish bait.
