President Trump said once again Sunday that he thinks a diplomatic end to the war with Iran could happen soon.

But speaking with reporters on board Air Force One, he also said it's possible those discussions will fail.

Trump also said the U.S.

is allowing a Russian oil tanker to enter Cuban waters.

Cuba's president says his country hasn't received any imports for three months and the power sector is suffering.

But Trump said Cuba needs much more than oil.

Cuba's a mess.

The Russian tanker is expected to arrive on Tuesday.

A funeral was held Sunday in Beirut for three journalists killed while covering Israel's invasion of southern Lebanon.

One of them worked for a Hezbollah-affiliated TV channel and was accused by Israel of producing propaganda.

The killings have drawn criticism from Lebanese officials and press freedom groups.

NPR's Lorne Frayer reports from Beirut.

The fighting between Iran and Israel is occurring during an important time for both Christians and Jews.

The next week we'll see both Passover and Easter taking place.

But many of Jerusalem's holiest places are sitting empty.

The Western Wall is closed to worshippers.

Israeli officials say gatherings are capped at no more than 50 people.

And stores in the Old City remain closed as the fighting continues.

It will be a short week ahead on Wall Street.

NPR's Scott Horsley reports that traders may welcome the break after a big sell-off last week.
