It’s been six months since the war in Iran started. Is anyone winning?

from Apple News Today

It’s been six months since President Trump went to war with Iran. Attempts at regime change, extracting nuclear concessions, and diplomatic talks have failed. The Wall Street Journal’s Alex Ward unpacks why. Americans are angry about AI data centers. And with the midterm elections fast approaching, Molly Hennessy-Fiske with the Washington Post looked at how the dynamic is playing out in Texas. The U.S. Open tennis tournament used to be affordable, but that era is gone. Matthew Futterman with The Athletic explains what changed. Plus, Americans are among the many people missing in Nepal after a deadly flash flood, new details in the LaGuardia Airport crash, and a 12-year-old pitcher who became a Little League World Series legend. Today’s episode was hosted by Yasmeen Khan.
