And Piers Daniel Estrin has more from Tel Aviv.
Iranian missile fire has decreased significantly. Dubai International Airport has resumed limited flight operations. And Israel will gradually open its airspace, but only for Israelis stranded abroad to fly home, starting with just one plane landing in Tel Aviv every hour. The aim is to repatriate all Israelis stuck abroad within 10 days. There are no departing flights from Israel, and the U.S.
Embassy is working on plans to help U.S. citizens in Israel take charter buses to Egypt to take departing flights from there. The U.S. is urging its citizens to leave over a dozen countries in the Mideast amid the U.S. and Israeli war with Iran. Daniel Estrin, NPR News, Tel Aviv.
In the Texas Democratic primary election for the U.S. Senate, the Associated Press has called the race for state senator James Tallarico. He defeated Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. Primary results were slowed because of confusion in Dallas County, Crockett's home county. Hundreds of voters were reportedly turned away for showing up at the wrong polling site. There's no winner yet called.
For the Texas Republican contest for the Senate, it's projected to go to a runoff in late May. Incumbent Republican Senator John Cornyn will face Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for the nomination. And as Cornyn showed last night, the rivalry between him and Paxton is bitter.
Over the next 12 weeks, Texas Republican primary voters will hear more about my record of delivering conservative victories in the United States Senate and... learn more about Ken's indefensible personal behavior and failures in office.
Paxton has faced a criminal indictment for securities fraud, allegations of adultery, and he survived impeachment by the Texas State House. The Texas State Senate acquitted him. Paxton says Cornyn is a weak Republican and he's more closely aligned to President Trump. This is NPR. In North Carolina, a Democratic congressional primary remains too close to call.
From Member Station WUNC, Colin Campbell reports.
With 99 percent of the ballots counted so far, according to the Associated Press, incumbent Congresswoman Valerie Foushee was ahead by about 1,200 votes, less than 1 percent of votes cast. Under state law, provisional votes will be counted in the days ahead, and challenger Nida Alam could be eligible to request a recount.
