President Trump, Iran and mediators from Pakistan say a deal has been reached to end the war between the U.S. and Iran. Trump and Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who played a key mediating role in negotiations, both said on social media that an official signing ceremony will take place on Friday . Shehbaz also said that the U.S. and Iran "declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon."

The newly reached agreement will likely dominate the conversation as Trump heads to the French Alps today for the G7 summit. Leaders from the world's wealthiest nations are meeting this week to discuss artificial intelligence, trade, immigration, the war in Ukraine and more. French President Emmanuel Macron, who is hosting the summit, said "the objective will be to see the consequences of this agreement, its support for Lebanon, the longterm reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and of course an agreement on Iran's nuclear and ballistic weapons."

Trump's trip to France also comes on the tail of a spectacle never before seen at the White House: A UFC fight on the White House Lawn to celebrate his 80th birthday โ€” and the U.S.' 250th. Mixed martial arts fighters went after each other in a 92-foot UFC octagon built on the lawn, hours after Trump announced the peace deal plans. Scenes of fighters warming up inside the Eisenhower Executive Office Building were streamed on Paramount+.

Twelve people are dead after a plane crashed Sunday in Missouri, killing all on board. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) records show the plane was operated by Skydive Kansas City, which provides skydiving in several locations. The company called the crash a "devastating loss " and said it is cooperating with local and federal investigators. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and the FAA are investigating. NTSB investigators are expected to arrive today to begin documenting the scene and examining the aircraft. A preliminary report is expected within 30 days. (via KCUR )

Summer is just around the corner, and so is the deadliest of extreme weather conditions: heat. Extreme temperatures kill more people in the U.S. in an average year than hurricanes, tornadoes and floods combined. Here's the science behind how heat kills โ€” and how you can stay safe this summer.

โ˜€๏ธ Your body tries to cool down by sweating and redirecting more blood to the skin. But that means less blood goes to your gut. If this persists for a prolonged period, it could lead to multiple organ failure. โ˜€๏ธ Arteries widen, and blood pressure drops as your body pumps blood to the skin, making your heart work harder. The stress can trigger heart attacks or strokes. โ˜€๏ธ Sweating makes you dehydrated. If you don't replenish your fluids, it can be hard on your kidneys and lead to kidney failure. โ˜€๏ธ Drink plenty of water before you head into the heat, and every 15-20 minutes if you're physically active. โ˜€๏ธ If you start to feel overheated, wet your clothes and skin, seek shade or head to a cool spot indoors.
