What is Iran’s response to President Trump’s economic threat?
Iran vows a devastating response. I'm Carmen Roberts, Fox News. That would be to President Trump's threat to hit Iran with an economic D-Day.
Iran's leaders haven't detailed what those responses to sanctions would be, but the parliament chief, one of the country's top negotiators, is reportedly admitting Iran is no match for the U.S. military.
Fox says Eben Brown. U.S. crude is hovering around $87 a barrel. Brent crude is a bit higher at $94 a barrel. And AAA says the national average for gas inched up to $4.11 a gallon. That's $1.13 more than before the war started. Diesel, a whopping $5.58 a gallon.
How are rising oil prices affecting U.S. gasoline and diesel costs?
The defense has rested its case in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial for killing of her three children in Massachusetts. Ahead of the trial, her attorney, Kevin Ruddington, told Fox's Brian Yennis...
We're going to end off with Dr. Resnick, and then they're going to have their three doctors, and hopefully we get the evidence done today. What do you expect out of the rebuttal witnesses from the prosecution? Entertainment.
Clancy's pleaded not guilty, claiming she was in severe postpartum psychosis. As teenage killer Carmelo Anthony seeks a new trial, the prosecutor reveals a trove of evidence the jury never saw, including disturbing texts. Fox's Garrett Tenney reports from McKinney, Texas, and says there's also evidence that was never revealed about the victim, Austin Metcalfe.
On Carmelo Anthony, prosecutors now say he had a history of getting into fights, was obsessed with knives and guns, and fantasized about stabbing someone. In one text message to his girlfriend, Anthony said this, When I stab somebody, I'm going to lick their blood off the blade. His attorneys argue it was in self-defense, and in court, they argued Metcalf had a history and a reputation for bullying and being violent, particularly towards minorities.
And both sides agreed not to introduce all that evidence in court, feeling it would be like throwing gas on a fire.
What new developments emerged in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial?
America's listening to Fox News. A charter plane crashed at a remote military site in Alaska yesterday, killing all eight people on board, including two members of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. That crash happened about 450 miles west of Anchorage.
The site is part of a network of remote radar stations monitoring aircraft in and around Alaska's airspace. Military personnel who responded to the scene are calling the crash a devastating loss. The NTSB is investigating.
Fox's Ted Lindner. The National Weather Service says, yes, that was a tornado that tore through New York's Long Island yesterday, causing rarely seen damage there. Nassau County Executive and GOP candidate for governor, Bruce Blakeman.
We're very, very fortunate, again, that nobody was injured, that there were no casualties. This was a
major weather event.
What details were revealed about the teenage killer Carmelo Anthony’s case?
Another tornado ripped through Dover, Delaware, causing destruction as a powerful storm system swept across the region. Flooding in New Jersey prompted several water rescues, and in Virginia, lightning struck and killed a man and injured a woman. A sword-wielding attacker injures several people at a school in Sweden. That attack happened in Fargesta, northwest of Stockholm. Two teenagers are hospitalized with severe injuries. A suspect is in custody. The world's number one tennis player, Yannick Sinner, is skipping the U.S. Open. He says a knee injury needs more time to heal. He
hasn't played since winning Wimbledon last month. News of Sinner's withdrawal from the U.S. Open comes one day after defending champion Carlos Alcaraz revealed he will return to defend his title.
How did recent tornadoes and severe weather impact the Northeast and Midwest?
Alcaraz had been sidelined for four months with a right wrist injury. The U.S. Open gets underway in New York on August 30th. In New York, Frank Lanza, Fox News.
And stocks are bouncing back from yesterday's sell-off when the Dow sank more than 700 points. The Dow up 426 at this time. The Nasdaq gaining 160 and S&P 500 up 46. I'm Carmen Roberts. This is Fox News.
