SUMMARY: Former Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal has called on Muslims to protest against Israel and join the fight, sparking fears of violence. This comes after an Israeli airstrike in Gaza killed nearly fifty people. US Senator Roger Wicker has stated that law enforcement agencies in the US are prepared for potential attacks, but expressed concern that neither the US nor Israel had prior intelligence about the Hamas attack. Wicker also urged for increased intelligence sharing between the US and Israel to prevent similar attacks in the future. The death toll in Israel is currently over 1,300.

SUMMARY: Mississippi lawmakers are struggling to finalize a budget for the state government after missing deadlines for funding that begins July 1, 2025.
