What are Iran's new demands for reopening the Strait of Hormuz?
A list of demands. I'm Carmen Roberts, Fox News. Iran complicates negotiations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by issuing tough demands that the US may refuse. Fox's Steve Harrigan has more from Tel Aviv.
From Iran, more mixed messages on their progress. Some hardliners making extreme demands, they say, must be met before any deal is made. Some commentators say even if Iran does sign a deal, they may not uphold what they sign. A key sticking point will be control over the Strait of Hormuz.
How is President Biden's worsening prostate cancer affecting his public duties?
How much leverage could Iran have, both in controlling the type of ships that pass through and possibly leveling fees or transit? Transit payments on those ships, that's something the US has rejected.
A top Iranian official laid out a series of demands for opening the strait, including an end to the war, to sanctions, to the naval blockade, and for the US to withdraw its forces. This, as the United Arab Emirates at Iran, launched a missile attack on one of its ships. Former President Biden's prostate cancer is getting worse.
Hunter Biden tells the BBC his father's cancer has spread further and is now, quote, very painful and debilitating in many respects. He says it's difficult for the family to watch the 83-year-old former president suffer, adding that his father rarely complains. Former President Biden was diagnosed last year with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has already spread to his bones.
Why was Todd Blanche confirmed as Attorney General and what could his agenda be?
He has since undergone radiation and horizontal. Hormone therapy while continuing to make some public appearances, Hunter says his father remains focused on his treatment and spending time with his family. Matt Murphy, Fox News.
And just before dawn, the Senate confirmed Todd Blanche as the next attorney general of the United States. That was a fifty to forty nine vote, and it could free him to pursue the Trump administration's agenda even more aggressively. America's listening to Fox News. A massive Utah wildfire is keeping emergency crews from reaching the site of a helicopter crash. Yesterday's crash sparked another fire that merged with an existing blaze, now burning nearly one hundred and seventy-four square miles.
What are the latest developments in the Russia‑Ukraine conflict and Zelensky’s diplomatic moves?

Several injured there. President Zelensky is visiting Serbia right now, a country that has maintained friendly relations with Russia.
How are the Utah wildfire and helicopter crash impacting emergency response efforts?
Both countries discussed seeking EU membership and pledged closer economic ties.
And this comes as Ukrainian president Zelensky calls on Western allies to continue pursuing Russian president Putin. And former Vice President Kamala Harris says that the Trump administration does not understand what it means to be an American.
