Lebanese state media say the latest Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon killed at least seven people, including two children, hours after reports emerged of a ceasefire agreement. The persistent fighting threatens an interim deal between the United States and Iran to end their war. Lebanon’s National News Agency said the strikes on Saturday hit the southern Lebanese town of Nabatiyeh and nearby villages. The reports say at least seven people are trapped under the rubble. Mediators are scrambling to halt the fighting between Israel and the Lebanese militant Hezbollah group, after a heavy exchange killed at least 47 people in Lebanon and four Israeli soldiers on Friday.

The White House says Vice President JD Vance isn’t leaving Thursday for Switzerland to lead a new round of talks with Iran about its nuclear program, citing difficult logistics for negotiations meant to add details to an agreement signed by President Donald Trump a day ago. The U.S. said earlier Thursday it had lifted its blockade of Iran, and oil tankers began freely moving through the Strait of Hormuz after months of being unable to use the critical channel. But the initial deal has drawn sharp criticism from some in the U.S. – including a few congressional Republicans – who worry Washington ceded too much to Iran.

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore said the state will exercise its right of first refusal to match Churchill Downs Incorporated's $85 million offer for intellectual property of the Preakness Stakes and Black-Eyed Susan Stakes. Churchill Downs announced in April that it was buying the branding from 1/ST Racing with the intent of licensing it back to Maryland annually to stage the race. Moore said the state would fund the cost with a tax-exempt revenue bond that would be paid back by money generated by the Preakness and Black-Eyed Susan.
