The stories that matter, clear and credible, from across the country to around the world

These are your unbiased updates from Straight Arrow. Good morning, I'm Craig DeGrelly. After months of war, missile strikes, threats of escalation

and a shock to global energy markets, the United States and Iran say they have a deal

President Trump is heading to Europe this morning after announcing what he calls

a completed agreement that could reopen the Strait of Hormuz and pause a conflict that has

dominated headlines for months. Trump posted Sunday that the deal is complete, saying he has

authorized the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the removal of the U.S. naval blockade

The agreement is expected to be formally signed Friday in Geneva, Switzerland. While the full text

has not been released, officials say the framework includes a 60-day extension of the ceasefire

and a new round of negotiations over Iran's nuclear program. The Strait of Hormuz carries about 20 percent of the world's oil supply

so the market reaction was fast. Oil prices fell sharply overnight, while stock markets across Asia moved higher

on expectations that energy shipments could soon return to normal. Iranian state media is also reporting the agreement this morning

though Tehran says implementation will not begin until the document is signed later this week

Even with the framework in place, questions remain about what happens next

Iran and the U.S. are already offering differing accounts of what comes after Friday's signing

particularly when it comes to sanctions relief frozen assets and future nuclear talks And Israel is showing signs of concern Defense Minister Israel Katz says Israel will not withdraw forces from southern Lebanon

despite Iran's claim that the agreement calls for an end to military operations there

One prominent pro-Netanyahu commentator went even further, writing on social media that, quote, Trump came out a loser

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham is also urging caution. he writes that he is somewhat concerned because Iran's description of the agreement

does not appear to match what the American negotiating team is saying

President Trump is en route to France this morning for a G7 summit

where he will arrive with that new diplomatic agreement in hand. Security is tight in the French lakeside town of Evian

where leaders from the world's largest economies are gathering for three days of talks

The Hotel Royal, overlooking Lake Geneva, will serve as the centerpiece of the summit

That's where Trump is expected to meet with French President Emmanuel Macron and other world leaders

The Iran agreement may ease one of the biggest crises facing the summit

but it does not erase the disagreements between Trump and many of the leaders he's about to meet

Beyond Iran, leaders are also set to discuss Ukraine, trade, artificial intelligence, and global supply chains

But this meeting opens with clear disagreements between Washington and several European allies over the war in Iran, NATO and U.S. foreign policy

Protests broke out in Geneva over the weekend ahead of the summit, while Macron spent Sunday meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney in a push to coordinate positions before leaders sit down together

Trump is expected to hold both group and one-on-one meetings throughout the week

with the possibility that events in the Middle East could quickly overtake everything else on the agenda

Russia unleashed one of its largest air attacks of the war overnight

hitting multiple Ukrainian cities and killing civilians as well as emergency responders

Ukraine Air Force says Russia fired 70 missiles and more than 600 drones in a wide assault targeting Kiev Kharkiv and Dnipro At least four people were killed and more than 30 injured Strikes damaged apartment buildings

a market and a grocery store. A fire also broke out at a UNESCO-listed monastery complex in Kiev

one of Ukraine's most important religious sites. In Kharkiv, officials say Russian forces used a

so-called double-tap attack, hitting the same area again after emergency crews arrived to help

victims of an earlier strike. Four emergency workers and an employee of the city's emergency

department were killed. Dnepro also reported damage to a college, cultural sites, and other

civilian infrastructure. Russia's defense ministry said the attack targeted military industrial facilities, conscription offices, and air bases, adding that all intended targets were hit

Back here in the U.S., this was just horrible. A skydiving trip in Missouri ended in tragedy Sunday

when a plane carrying 12 people crashed moments after takeoff, killing everyone on board

Authorities say the single-engine turboprop took off from Butler Memorial Airport about an hour south of Kansas City just before 11.30 Sunday morning

Officials say the plane failed to gain altitude, made a sharp left turn, and went down in a field about 300 yards from the runway

You see the wreckage right there. Emergency crews found the aircraft engulfed in flames

The plane, operated by Skydive Kansas City, was carrying a pilot and 11 passengers

Officials say nine of those on board were experienced skydivers, while two were preparing for tandem jumps

Investigators searched the area on foot and by drone to determine whether anyone managed to exit the aircraft before it crashed

but found no survivors. The cause of the disaster is still unknown

The FAA and National Transportation Safety Board are now investigating. Former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is in the hospital this morning

though his office is releasing few details about why. A spokesperson says the 84 Kentucky Republican was admitted Sunday morning and is receiving what his office called excellent care No information has been released about his condition or what led to the hospital visit The hospitalization comes after a series of well health issues in recent years

including several falls, a concussion, and multiple instances where McConnell briefly froze while speaking in public

More recently, he has been seen using a wheelchair at times and receiving assistance while walking

McConnell announced earlier this year that he will not seek re-election and is expected to leave the Senate when his term ends next January

For now, his office says only that he remains under care at the hospital

He is currently one of the three oldest members of Congress, alongside Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders

Finally this morning, President Trump celebrated his 80th birthday in a way only he could

with a UFC fight night on the White House South Lawn. The night started with a joint flyover from the Navy Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds

as thousands gathered on the South Lawn for the made-for-TV spectacle. Trump arrived with UFC President Dana White and received a rock star welcome

as he made his way to a temporary octagon built on the White House grounds

The event was part of the kickoff to America's 250th birthday celebration

and doubled as a birthday party for the president, who turned 80 on Sunday

Several thousand people packed the custom-built arena to watch a full card of UFC bouts

with Trump sitting ringside throughout the night. The action finally wrapped up after 1 a.m. Eastern with fireworks over the White House

Afterwards, White House spokesperson Allison Schuster called it one of the most entertaining nights in American history

Wow, what a weekend it was for sports, right? The Knicks won the NBA title on Saturday night

The Carolina Hurricanes won the Stanley Cup on Sunday. The U.S. won in soccer in the World Cup
