What are the latest developments in US-Russia relations?
Live from NPR News, I'm Dale Willman. A senior Russian official says a potential summit between President Trump and Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin remains on Moscow's agenda. NPR's Charles Mainz reports.
In an interview with a Russian policy journal, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Rybkov said the prospect of a new Trump-Putin meeting remained. I wouldn't rule anything out, said Rybkov, who characterized ongoing dialogue between Washington and Moscow as impressive. Those comments come amid a new push by President Trump to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine. President Putin has loosely endorsed Trump's draft plan, which critics say skews heavily in Moscow's favor. Trump and Putin last met for a hastily scheduled summit in Alaska last August that failed to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough. Then Trump complained the Russian leader still wasn't ready for peace and canceled a potential follow-on meeting last month in Hungary.

President Trump says he was surprised when Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene announced Friday she would soon resign from Congress. The announcement came after months of tension between Greene and Trump. Georgia Public Broadcasting's Sarah Cullis spoke with some of Greene's constituents about the decision.
Greene is very popular in her district. Pamela Scheid, for example, lives in Greene's district. She's supportive of both Trump and Greene and wishes they would make amends. I think he should get over it and yes, support her. Some constituents like Josh Williams, who have backed her opponents, say they don't quite believe all of what she said.
I'm glad that she has seen the light as she is purporting, but I don't think that she's, I think she's a grifter.
People told me that they felt like this tension between her and Trump is just politics, and they have bigger concerns.
That's Georgia Public Broadcasting's Sarah Cullis. Israeli strikes across Gaza killed at least 24 people and injured more than 80 on Saturday. That's according to Palestinian health officials. Both Israel and Hamas, meanwhile, are accusing each other of ceasefire violations, but the ceasefire is still holding, as NPR's Kat Lansdorf reports.
An Israeli drone strike targeted a vehicle in Gaza City in the north while several airstrikes hit central Gaza. Israeli forces also opened fire in Rafah in the south. Israel says Hamas militants crossed the yellow line into Israeli-controlled territory in Gaza and threatened Israeli troops, and that the resulting strikes killed five senior Hamas officials. Hamas called the attacks a, quote, blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement and called on the mediators, including the U.S., to pressure Israel to stop. Israeli strikes have continued throughout the fragile ceasefire deal, which is in its second month but has largely stalled in the first phase. Kat Lonsdorff, NPR News, Tel Aviv.
A fire that broke out on a container ship docked at the port of Los Angeles is now almost entirely contained. The blaze began Friday night and prompted shelter-in-place orders for nearby communities because of hazardous materials on board the ship. That order has now been lifted. There were no injuries because of the fire. Officials say an electrical problem may have sparked the blaze. You're listening to NPR News. Archaeologists in Wisconsin have discovered a very, very old canoe. As Sarah Lear of Wisconsin Public Radio reports, it's estimated to be more than 5,000 years old.
Over the last several years, the Wisconsin Historical Society says it's found a total of 16 ancient canoes lurking at the bottom of Lake Mendota in south-central Wisconsin. Tamara Thompson is a maritime archaeologist who helped lead those discoveries. She suspects that, for millennia, Indigenous people returned to that section of the lake. She says they may have been stashing their boats for later by burying them under sediment near the shoreline. What we're seeing really is a parking lot. The cluster of canoes includes a red oak vessel discovered earlier this year.
