Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Willman. Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon Saturday killed three journalists along with nine paramedics.
One of them was a correspondent for Hezbollah's television channel who has been reporting from the south for almost 30 years. Israel claimed without evidence he was a Hezbollah operative, in fact, a member of one of their elite forces.
Chapter 2: What recent events occurred in southern Lebanon involving journalists?
But the actions that Israel described, identifying where Israeli forces were and contacts with Hezbollah, are actually normal journalistic practices. Israel didn't comment on the other two journalists killed with him.
That's NPR's Jane Araf reporting from Amman, Jordan. Houthi rebels say they launched a missile attack against Israel on Saturday. It's the second such attack in the past 24 hours. The Houthis have the ability to disrupt shipping around the Arabian Peninsula as well as the Red Sea, so their entry into the fighting in the Middle East is increasing tensions throughout the region.
No King's protests were held across the country for a third time on Saturday. Millions of people rallied to demonstrate against the policies of President Trump. George Hale from member station WFIU reports from one gathering in Indiana.
A large crowd of protesters shut down traffic in Bloomington as they chanted and sang against President Trump's war in Iran and immigration crackdown. Healthcare consultant Kate Steger said she had lost work on USAID projects after the administration shut down that agency.
I really needed to express resistance to that and to really show that we are a country that cares about other people.
Steger says it's been hard to watch the destruction of humanitarian programs that were doing good abroad, but she's still hopeful.
We can turn ourselves around. I believe that.
For NPR News, I'm George Hale in Bloomington, Indiana.
As the partial government shutdown continues, extra-long security lines are still causing problems at some airports. TSA agents have not been paid for more than a month, and some are calling in sick or leaving for other jobs. At one of the world's busiest airports, travelers say these agents are long overdue to get a paycheck.
