Good morning. We're covering a second assassination attempt against Donald Trump and hostages killed by an Israeli airstrike. Plus: A fashion video game hits it big.
Trump targeted in 'attempted assassination,' the F.B.I. saidThe F.B.I. said that it was investigating "what appears to be an attempted assassination" of former President Donald Trump after the Secret Service fired on an armed man at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Fla., yesterday. The episode comes just two months after Trump was wounded during an attempt on his life at a rally in Pennsylvania. Trump was on the course, a few hundred yards away, when Secret Service agents opened fire on a suspect, who fled the scene in a vehicle and was later taken into custody, law enforcement officials said. A rifle with a scope was recovered from the bushes near the property line, officials said. A Secret Service representative said it was not yet clear if the suspect had fired any shots. A U.S. law enforcement official identified the suspect as Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, of Hawaii. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because the investigation is continuing. Here's the latest. Suspect details: Routh was interviewed by The New York Times in 2023 for an article about Americans volunteering to aid the war effort in Ukraine. Routh, who had no military experience, said he had traveled there after Russia's invasion in 2022 to recruit Afghan soldiers for the fight. He told The Times he once visited Washington to meet with politicians to strengthen support for Ukraine.
Three hostages were likely killed by an airstrike, Israel saysThree hostages were likely killed in November as a result of an Israeli airstrike targeting a senior Hamas commander, the Israeli military said yesterday. The military said that it had conducted an investigation based on where the hostages' bodies were found in December, but that it would not be able to definitively determine the cause of their deaths. According to the investigation, the hostages had been in a tunnel complex used by Ahmed al-Ghandour, a top Hamas official whose death the group later acknowledged. The Israeli military said it had information at the time suggesting that the hostages were in another place. In Israel: The Houthi militia in Yemen claimed responsibility for a rare missile attack, the second time in two months that the Iranian-backed group has successfully penetrated the skies over the country.

Europe's public transit captains showed off their skills at the European Tramdriver Championship. The annual public transit jamboree might best be described as tram dressage in which drivers coax their commuter chariots through an obstacle course meant to test their whimsy, mettle and precision.
The internet vies for 'Top Model' statusThe online gaming platform Roblox may be ubiquitous among tweens, but a popular fashion game has adults — and a few celebrities — paying attention. Dress to Impress, released last year, has quickly become one of Roblox's most popular games. The premise of the game is simple: At the beginning of each round, players are given a theme and then have five minutes to create outfits that relate to it. The game has been played more than 2.7 billion times, and around half of its users are over 18, according to Roblox. Big names have gotten involved in the game, including Charli XCX, the British singer, who collaborated with developers to release "brat"-themed outfit patterns.
