possible regime change in Iran. Mark Mayfield reports.
Speaker 3 (00:14):

Oil prices are jumping following those air strikes on Iran.
US crude oil went up more than two percent Sunday,
evening to seventy five dollars and sixty cents a barrel.
This comes as there is uncertainty regarding the oil supply
outlook in the Middle East. Iranian state media reported earlier
Sunday that the country's parliament supported closing the Strait of
her Moves. According to the Energy Information Administration, twenty percent
(01:01):
of the crude oil consumed by the world passed through
that straight last year. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones industrial average,
the S and P five hundred, and the Nasdaq futures
have all been down. FedEx founder Fred Smith has died
at the age of eighty. Smith helped create the overnight
delivery industry, which revolutionized the way business and consumers received
goods and packages. He founded the company as Federal Express

an achilles injury. I'm Tammy Triheo. Health experts are urging
(02:07):
a wider use of weight loss drugs. Sarah Lee Kessler reports.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
The American College of Cardiology says doctors should prescribe golp
one drugs earlier and not require patients to first try
healthier lifestyle changes. In major trials, these drugs have been
shown to reduce cardiovascular events, improve heart failure symptoms, and
help manage fatty liver disease. But it's not as easy
(02:31):
as it sounds. There are barriers, including limited insurance coverage
and supply shortages. I'm Sarah le Kessler.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Millions of Americans spent Sunday under heat alerts the National
Weather Service as major to extreme heat risks are spreading
through the Midwest and East, where anyone without effective cooling
or adequate hydration could be affected. They also warn they'll
be little to no overnight relief. The Weather Service is
calling it the first significant heat wave of the season,
with high temperatures in the mid to upper nineties and

the complaint, Miami officials approached student athlete A and his
family last December with a monetary offer to leave Wisconsin.

the University. Wisconsin says the lawsuit aims to promote the
integrity of college athletics through legal accountability. I'm Rob Bartier.

the top of the box office. The live action remake
of the twenty ten animated film brought in thirty seven

twenty eight years later scared up thirty million dollars in
its debut to take second place. I was in great
news for Pixar, as the animation studio suffered its worst
opening weekend ever with l eoh the film twenty one
