U.S.-Iran Ceasefire Collapses as American Death Toll Rises

from WSJ What’s News · host The Wall Street Journal

A.M. Edition for July 20. As fighting between the U.S. and Iran intensifies, Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Tehran’s actions speak louder than words, after three U.S. servicemembers were killed over the weekend. Plus, the World Cup provides an economic boost to U.S. host cities, as fears of a summer bust fizzle. And as Britain gets a new prime minister, a mix of politics, outdated regulation and higher building costs are strangling London, which needs more than one million new homes. Luke Vargas hosts.
