Good evening. Here's the latest at the end of Tuesday.
🇺🇸 2024 The presidential election is 77 days away. Here's the latest from the campaign trail.
In Chicago, Obama aims to resurrect a movementThis evening, Barack Obama will headline the second night of the Democratic convention in Chicago, the city where his political career began. Like 2016, when he championed Hillary Clinton, he will attempt to use his political star power to help fuel the ascension of the country's first woman president, and warn voters of the perils of a Donald Trump presidency. This time, however, Obama no longer has the strength of the presidency behind him. Instead, he will attempt to reassemble the kind of coalition that powered his own rise behind the campaign of Kamala Harris. Harris backed Obama's long-shot campaign for president in 2007, when it was a political risk that few others would take. Now, Obama will return the favor. You can watch his speech, and others, live here. Here's what else to know:
Israel said it had recovered the bodies of six hostagesIsrael's defense minister announced today that Israeli forces had recovered in an overnight operation the bodies of six hostages from Hamas tunnels beneath the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza. Five of the six were already known to have died in captivity. More than 100 Israelis who were taken hostage during the Hamas-led Oct. 7 attack still remain captive in Gaza. At least 30 are believed to be dead. In related news, both Israeli and Hamas officials cast doubt on American optimism that a cease-fire deal could be imminent. Major disagreements are still unresolved.
Biden approved a secret new nuclear strategyPresident Biden approved in March a highly classified nuclear strategic plan that reorients America's deterrent strategy to focus on China's rapidly expanding nuclear arsenal. The document, which was never publicly announced, also seeks, for the first time, to prepare the U.S. for possible coordinated nuclear challenges from China, Russia and North Korea.
A search is underway for survivors of a sunken yachtDeep-sea divers continued to search today for six passengers who went missing after a yacht sank yesterday off the coast of Sicily. Fifteen of the 22 passengers on board were rescued, and the body of the ship's cook was recovered, after the 180-foot yacht found itself caught in a violent storm. The missing people include the British tech mogul Mike Lynch, who was acquitted in a high-profile fraud trial two months ago, and his daughter. More top news
Breakouts in classical musicSince its founding more than 100 years ago, the Salzburg Festival has been known as a gathering place for the world's finest musicians. That's still true, but the event is now also a proving ground for artists on the cusp on stardom. Our classical music critic Joshua Barone went to the festival to see who would break through this year. Here are five of his picks. In Scotland, two different shows at the Edinburgh Fringe make fun of Gwyneth Paltrow's ski trial — and one of them is a triumph.
Why this jar of weed costs $60Selling marijuana is now legal in many states, but playing by the rules has its costs. After taxes, state-mandated security requirements and other fees, customers will pay as much as 50 percent more for the legal 3.5-gram jar pictured above than they would from an unlicensed dealer. My colleague Ashley Southall broke down all the expenses at one legal cannabis dispensary in Queens.

A century of searches for alien lifeThis week 100 years ago, scientists conducted some of the first large-scale efforts to detect alien life. Earth and Mars were historically close, captivating audiences around the world. The U.S. Navy cleared the airwaves, and researchers pointed a radio antenna at Mars looking for signs of life. The tests provided no concrete evidence of extraterrestrial life, but when looking back, those summer experiments were just the opening chapter in a search that continues to this day. The technologies have evolved, but what endures is that sneaky feeling that we are not alone in the universe. Have an astronomical evening. Thanks for reading. I'll be back tomorrow. — Matthew Philip Pacheco was our photo editor today. We welcome your feedback. Write to us at evening@nytimes.com.
