Israel greenlights talks with Lebanon. I'm Carmen Roberts, Fox News. In a pivotal move today, Prime Minister Netanyahu said he has authorized direct negotiations with Lebanon as soon as possible.
Israel's continued attacks on Hezbollah militants in Lebanon have been a major flashpoint in the ceasefire with Iran. The Israeli government rejecting Iranian claims that those strikes are a violation of the deal. Now, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he's ready to work with the Lebanese government to disarm Hezbollah and establish peaceful relations between their two countries. Yesterday alone, more than 200 people were reported to have died in Israeli strikes. Israel launched the renewed offensive against Hezbollah after the Iran-backed group began firing at Israel on March 2. Jonathan Savage, Fox News.
Talks are expected to start next week in Washington. U.S. is demanding Iran open the Strait of Hormuz after Tehran mostly closed it, as Israel continued to attack Lebanon.

How is the conflict with Hezbollah impacting Israel's military strategy?
U.S. crews higher again today, bouncing around $100 a barrel, now 99-27, up about 5%. A judge sentences a former New York City police sergeant to three to nine years in prison today for tossing a picnic cooler full of drinks at a fleeing suspect, Eric Dupree. And then he crashed his motorized scooter and died. A jury convicted Eric Duran of manslaughter and 2023's death. And the former sergeant said he was trying to protect other officers from the approaching scooter. And he told Dupre's family that he did everything he could to attend to his injuries and never meant for this to happen. Dupre worked as a delivery driver and had three young children. America's listening to Fox News. There may be a temporary ceasefire between the U.S., Israel and Iran, but Democrats in Congress say they will push for a war powers vote after lawmakers return from recess next week.
Congressman Glenn Ivey criticizing President Trump's handling of the conflict.
It's on the wrong track. He's been terrible with the wheel. The threats of total annihilation were, you know, beyond the pale. It's time for Congress to step in and take control of the wheel.
Last month, Republican lawmakers blocked the resolution in the Senate and the House. Crews in Philadelphia are still searching for two people missing after a garage under construction collapsed, pancaking to the ground. First, Deputy Commissioner John Stamford is urging people to stay away.
While the crews are here doing what they need to do, please do not come to try and take pictures or just to be on site or any of those type of things.
One person died in the collapse. Two others were rescued. Federal agents arrested an Army veteran and charged her with sharing classified information with a journalist. Courtney Williams is accused of violating federal law for allegedly sharing details of her work with a special military unit at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. And more American men are living longer lives.
More men are living longer now when compared to a quarter century ago. The National Center for Health Statistics, using U.S. Census data, says the gap between the number of men and women reaching the age of 65 has narrowed since 2001. It used to be just over 70 men for every 100 women. As of last year, it's now more than 81 men for every 100 women. And the gap narrowed even more dramatically for those aged 80 or older, from 51 men to more than 68. Despite advances in senior health care, data scientists suggest the increased numbers are due to the aging of the already populous baby boomer generation. Eben Brown, Fox News.
