Live from NPR News, I'm Giles Snyder. President Trump briefed reporters in Miami Monday, saying the military operation in Iran has been a tremendous success, suggesting the war could end soon. But NPR's Greg Myrie says Trump has not defined what victory would look like.
Greg Myrie 0:36
Well, again, if we're talking just about the military piece of this, I think the information or his tone about how successful the operation has been was largely a correct assessment. But what did strike me was how little he was willing to say about Iran's new leader. He just said, I was disappointed. I think we'll end up with more of the same problems. He didn't say how he would address that. So, again, talking about how this war might end, what kind of political settlement might be reached, how he intends to help the Iranian people, he was, I thought, evasive and just not very clear about that.

Iran has launched new attacks. Incoming missile sirens sounded early Tuesday in Dubai and Bahrain. Saudi Arabia says it destroyed two drones and Kuwait's National Guard says it shot down six drones. The Federal Aviation Administration has issued a ground stop for all JetBlue planes. The reason is not clear. The FAA has issued an advisory, though, saying the ground stop was issued at JetBlue's request. A federal judge asking Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to justify why they detained a Nashville journalist.

From Member Station WPLN, Mariana Bacchial reports that Estefany Rodriguez-Flores was reporting on immigration when she was arrested.
Mariana Bakayau 1:51
Attorneys for Rodriguez-Flores say ICE did not produce a warrant when they arrested their client, who claimed political asylum in the U.S., because she received death threats for reporting in Colombia. She had been reporting on immigration enforcement efforts in Nashville and was arrested while driving in a car marked for a Spanish-language media outlet. ICE officials say that they did have a warrant, although evidence of one submitted to the court was partially blank and missing her alien number. The judge has set a Thursday deadline for ICE to submit written justification for the arrest. For NPR News, I'm Mariana Bakayau in Nashville.

Death toll rising following heavy flooding in several parts of Kenya over the weekend. Michael Koloke has more.
Michael Kaloki 2:35
Search and rescue operations are underway to find those who are missing following heavy rains in various parts of the country, including the capital Nairobi and the western and southern regions. Many residents have been displaced after floodwaters damaged their homes while transportation has been disrupted after roads in various regions were submerged. Parts of Kenya are prone to flooding during the country's main rainfall season, which is between the months of March to May. This year, authorities have warned of enhanced rainfall over most of the country during the first half of this month. Last year, hundreds of people were killed after heavy rains caused severe flooding and landslides across Kenya and neighboring Tanzania.

Several dozen states say they will continue legal action against Live Nation despite the Justice Department reaching a settlement in an antitrust case. The department announced the settlement with the parent company of Ticketmaster Monday. It would let competitors play a role in ticket sales and force Live Nation to give up control of 13 amphitheaters. California Congressman Kevin Kiley is leaving the Republican Party. Kiley announced Monday that he will serve as an independent, effective immediately. Kiley's move tightens an already narrow House Republican majority, but Kiley says he will still caucus with Republicans. Kiley is facing a tough re-election battle in a Democratic-leaning district following the redrawing of California's congressional boundaries.
