What military actions is the U.S. taking against Iranian threats?
Targeting Iranian threats. I'm Debra Valentine, Fox News. U.S. military strikes are targeting Iranian threats to the Strait of Hormuz. Fox's Jared Halpern has more from the White House.
President Trump insists reopening the Strait of Hormuz is a simple military maneuver.
How is the Cuban government responding to U.S. requests for diesel imports?
It's relatively safe, but you need a lot of help in the sense of you need ships.
The president is blasting NATO and Asian partners for not stepping up and providing military assistance.
But it would be nice if the countries, including China, if the countries that use it, China uses it 90% of their energy. Japan is 95% of the energy. It would be nice if those countries would get involved.
On social media, President Trump labeled NATO a paper tiger and cowards.
What challenges is Cuba facing with nationwide blackouts?
At the White House, Jared Halpern, Fox News.
The Cuban government has refused a request by the U.S. Embassy in Havana to allow it to import diesel for its generators as the Trump administration continues to impose a fuel blockade on the island.
Nationwide blackouts have left 10 million Cubans without power. A U.S. energy blockade and aging energy infrastructure are being blamed. Protesters are openly challenging the authoritarian government that has led Cuba for 67 years. The commander of U.S. Southern Command says there are plans in place if the regime collapses. We would follow either at sea or primarily ashore at Guantanamo Bay where we would set up a camp to deal with those migrants or any overflow from any situation in Cuba itself. Otherwise, my other core task is to protect the embassy, which we are in contact with the embassy every single day. One of the most prominent leaders of the Cuban Democratic opposition is calling on President Trump to free Cuba.
Fox's Mike Emanuel, the standoff on Diesel, comes as President Trump has been pressuring for dramatic change in government. America's listening to Fox News.

No verdict yet in the Los Angeles trial that accuses Meta and YouTube of negatively impacting teen mental health.
What are the implications of the L.A. trial involving Meta and YouTube?
Fox's Kristen Goodwin has more.
Despite six days of deliberating, a jury in Los Angeles not reaching a verdict Friday. They're set to return Monday. Jurors have to decide whether each company is guilty of failure to warn and or negligence. The now 20-year-old plaintiff, KGM, has alleged she started using the apps before she was 10 years old, leading to her addiction, depression, and self-harm. Her lawyer calling the company's attempts to protect users under the age of 13 from using the platforms a joke. The companies have denied the claims. A lawyer for Google argued YouTube is more of a video platform than social media. A lawyer for Meta alleging KGM's upbringing and family mental health history caused her mental health struggles.
Kristen Goodwin, Fox News.
The L.A. trial is the first of a group of cases brought by more than 1,600 plaintiffs, which includes more than 350 families and 250 school districts. More than 5,000 residents of Hawaii's Oahu Island are under evacuation orders due to flash flooding caused by a week of heavy rain.
How is Hawaii responding to the recent flash flooding emergency?
Hawaii's Governor Josh Green says federal resources will help the island recover from the devastation.
I am happy to report that my chief of staff spoke to the White House today, and they are offering their assurance that we're going to have support. The same can be said of FEMA. They've been with us from the beginning as they were with us in the fire and before. We have support, and we will come through this together.
At least 200 people have been rescued by emergency first responders. No deaths have been reported. A statewide flood watch is in effect until Sunday, 6 p.m. local time. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration is designating Colombia's President Gustavo Petro a priority target as federal prosecutors in New York investigate his alleged ties to drug traffickers. I'm Deborah Valentine. This is Fox News.
