What is the limited pause in Gaza fighting and how will it affect humanitarian aid?
Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Wilman. Israel's Military Sunday held what it's calling a limited pause in fighting in three areas of Gaza to allow humanitarian aid to enter the region. The pause will last for ten hours each day. But Rachel Cummings of the group Save the Children says Israel is still not doing enough to save lives there.
We are seeing an exponential rise in the number of children attending our clinic in the first two weeks. Of July we've seen exactly the same number of children we saw in the whole of June and we're expecting that trajectory sadly to increase.
Cummings was speaking from Gaza. Israeli combat operations meanwhile did continue in other parts of Gaza where at least fifty Palestinians were killed. The European Union is hailing its new trade agreement with President Trump as a good deal, even though it will mean fifteen percent tariffs on EU exports to the US, Terry Schultz has more.
How did the EU‑US trade agreement change tariffs on European exports to the United States?
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen acknowledges she didn't succeed in getting President Trump to entirely drop the plan to add import duties on European products, but only to cut his original threat in half. Fifteen percent is not to be underestimated, but it is the best we could get. Von der Leyen says there will be some zero tariff items, among them aircraft, some agricultural products, and critical raw materials. Other parts The deal.
We will replace Russian gas and oil by significant purchases of US LNG oil and nuclear fuel.
Вон der Leyen says while tariffs will still be a challenge for some, at least now the destabilizing uncertainty is over. For NPR News I'm Terry Scholz in Brussels.

What are the key points of the U.S.–China tariff talks in Stockholm and why do they matter?
and Chinese officials are meeting in Stockholm Monday to discuss trade tariffs. It's the third such meeting this year. Analysts say they're likely to agree on maintaining current tariff levels while they work toward a more permanent deal. The U.S. currently taxes Chinese goods at 30% while China imposes a 10% tariff on U.S. goods. The talks may also address issues including fentanyl-related tariffs. All the victims of Saturday's mass stabbing attack at a Walmart and Travers City, Michigan are expected to survive. The Grand Travers County Sheriff Department has now released the name of the suspect in custody and more information about the attack, but he said they have not yet determined any motive.
Who was the suspect in the Michigan Walmart mass stabbing and what charges is he facing?
Claire Keenan Kurgan of Interlocken Public Radio has more.
Forty two year old Michigan resident Bradford James Gilley is facing one count of terrorism and eleven counts of assault with intent to murder. During the attack, multiple citizen bystanders, including one with a handgun, confronted the suspect in the parking lot and prevented him from harming more people. That's according to Grand Travers County Sheriff Michael Shea. He declined to name those bystanders.
If they choose to make a public statement, they will. But I would ask that we all just give them a little space and say, at a boy, right?
The eleven victims ranged in age from twenty-nine to eighty-four. For NPR News, I'm Claire Keenan Kurgan in Traver City.
