Chapter 2: What happened during the tragic shooting in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan?
An in-depth probe is underway in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, where a gunman killed four people, injured several others, and set a church ablaze during a packed Sunday worship service. Sheriff Chris Swanson of Genesee County, Michigan, told reporters this morning.
You prepare in peace to perform in chaos. I saw it live. I saw what you train for, what you plan for. And the reality hit yesterday morning in a bright sunny day when people went to worship. But what I also saw is every level of government law enforcement work together for the good of the people.
Chapter 3: What are the latest developments regarding the Israel-Hamas conflict?
Police say they killed the attacker, who they say was a Marine veteran and lived in a nearby town. Reuben Coleman, acting FBI special agent in charge, called the attack an act of targeted violence, and authorities are still examining possible motives. The FBI says the scene of the attack is still being processed, and its behavior analyst unit is deeply involved in the investigation.
Law enforcement authorities say that now all persons are accounted for. President Trump and Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are meeting at the White House. They are discussing the latest American proposal for a potential end to Israel's war in Gaza. But as NPR's Emily Fang reports, it's still uncertain whether Israel and Hamas will agree.
Many of the points in the proposal have been raised before. For an example, an end to the war in exchange for all the hostages returned to Israel. What is slightly new is Tony Blair, the former British prime minister, could lead an international consortium to oversee the reconstruction of Gaza at first.
But other points, like the total disarmament of Hamas and a hard timetable of when Israel would withdraw its forces, are sticking points. And all the while, Israel's military continues to pound northern Gaza, where some residents have not been able to leave this area because they say they have nowhere safe to go.
Al-Auda Hospital in northern Gaza said on Sunday that Israel's ground operations there killed 13 Palestinians who were brought to the hospital. Emily Fang, NPR News, Tel Aviv.
