Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Giles Snyder. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker says the Trump administration is turning Chicago into a war zone.

They want mayhem on the ground. They want to create the war zone so that they can send in even more troops. Now they're claiming they need 300 of Illinois' National Guard. We didn't need them before they showed up.

Pritzker speaking to CNN this morning, a day after the White House confirmed plans to deploy members of the Illinois Guard to Chicago. Details remain unclear, but the administration is citing ongoing violence and lawlessness. Yesterday, Border Patrol agents shot and injured a woman. Exactly what happened there is also not clear. The Homeland Security Department says she was part of a group who rammed their cars into vehicles used by ICE agents. The shooting led to a face-off between protesters and federal agents.

What recent actions has Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker taken regarding National Guard deployment?

President Trump has said that violent protests outside the Portland Ice Building left the city, quote, war ravaged and threatened the safety of federal employees. But Judge Karen Emmerget, a Trump appointee, said in her ruling that protests had generally been peaceful since June, with fewer than 20 protesters on average. Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield celebrated the decision at a press conference and called it a healthy check on the president's power.

President Trump asked Israel to stop bombing Gaza after Hamas appeared to accept his plan to end the war. But as NPR's Anas Baba reports, deadly Israeli airstrikes continue to hit Gaza.

For a few hours on Saturday, residents in Gaza City walked the streets with a sense of relative safety after Israeli forces pulled back several hundred meters from the city center. But the calm did not last long. An airstrike like this one overnight hit the Abdelal family home without warning, killing 18 people there and injuring more than 70, according to hospital records. The military says it was targeting a Hamas militant who posed a threat, but they didn't name the target or response to NPR's inquiry for more information. Israeli drones, artillery and gunfire have resumed around Gaza City. The military says the city remains under an evacuation order. And the city is still cut off from the south as displaced families wait for real ceasefire to return home.

Special Envoy Steve Woodcuff is to lead an American delegation to Egypt for indirect talks tomorrow. This is NPR News. The ruling party of the former Soviet Republic of Georgia is claiming victory in this weekend's local elections, despite a boycott by the opposition and a huge protest in the capital that led to clashes with riot police. Typhoon Matmo strengthened before making landfall in southern China today. Local media showing video of large waves washing seawater onto roads in a coastal village.

Matmos strengthened after leaving the Philippines with sustained wind speeds nearing 100 mph as it neared southern Guangdong Province, according to China's National Meteorological Center. That prompted authorities to issue a red-level typhoon warning, the nation's highest, and to evacuate more than 150,000 people in the typhoon's path. Hainan Province, which is also in the pathway of the storm, canceled flights and shut down public transport and businesses starting Saturday in preparation for Matmo's arrival.
