00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: This is WBC Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 2: Thirty one degrees and cloudy in Boston at eleven o'clock

3
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 2: AD morning. I'm Kyle Bray. Thank you for joining us,

4
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 2: and here's what's happening. The war Iran comes to Wall Street.

5
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: Markets are rattled this morning as fighting in the Middle

6
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 2: East intensifies. The down Nasdaq and S and P five

7
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 2: hundred are all down between two and two and a

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 2: half percent. The market disruption comes after Iran closed the

9
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 2: Strait of Horn Moves, which has led to an eight

10
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: percent spike in the price of oil and an eleven

11
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: cent increase in the average price of gas overnight. Meanwhile,

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 2: six US service members have now been killed in the fighting,

13
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 2: and the State Department has closed US embassies in Saudi

14
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 2: Arabia and Kuwait, ABC's Marcus Moore's and Doha. With the latest.

15
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: Explosions ripping through Tehran, stealth bombers drop two thousand pound

16
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 3: bombs on underground facilities. Fighter jets destroyed multiple Iranian Navy ships,

17
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 3: sunk Iran's Revolutionary Guard headquarters leveled the major focus Iran's

18
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 3: missile launchers and those deadly one way attack drones which

19
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 3: are now wreaking havoc across the Gulf. Central Command releasing

20
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 3: new video showing US strikes on Iranian ballistic missile launchers,

21
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 3: but analysts say Iran still has thousands of missiles in

22
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 3: its arsenal.

23
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: The State Department is urging Americans to leave the Middle

24
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: East as soon as possible, and after striking Iran without

25
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 2: congressional approval, the Trump administration is planning to brief all

26
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: of Congress on the finding today after leaders from both

27
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 2: parties were briefed yesterday. Ahead of that briefing, Secretary of

28
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 2: State Marco Rubio told reporters there was an imminent threat

29
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 2: to the United States because they knew Israel was planning

30
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 2: to attack Iran, and they expected Iran to retaliate by

31
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: attacking US forces. Virginia Democrats Senator Mark Warner says that's

32
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: not a good enough reason.

33
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 3: There was no imminent threat to the United States of

34
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 3: America by the Iran.

35
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: There was a.

36
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 4: Threat to Israel.

37
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 5: Had quite a threat to Israel.

38
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 2: As the equivalent of an imminent.

39
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 5: Threat to the United States, then we are in uncharted territory.

40
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 2: House Speaker Mike Johnson says the US had a difficult

41
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 2: decision to make because Israel was determined to act with

42
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 2: or without the US. Meanwhile, popular prediction markets are facing

43
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: insider trading allegations for wagers placed on the war in Iran.

44
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 2: Blockchain analytics firm bubble Maps posted a report that six

45
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: people made around one point two million dollars after betting

46
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 2: that the US would strike Iran just hours before it happened.

47
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 2: One user ran away with more than two hundred thousand

48
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 2: dollars on a twenty grand bet. Many Democratic lawmakers are

49
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: speaking up about whether or not these wagers were placed

50
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 2: with insider knowledge. Arizona Senator Reuben Diego called it insider

51
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,839
Speaker 2: trading in broad daylight. Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy says it's

52
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 2: insane that this is legal, and that he plans to

53
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 2: introduce legislation to ban this as soon as possible. It's

54
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,919

00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: the chair of the Massachusetts Democratic Party, says we are

78
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: grateful to advance to this next round of consideration, and

79
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: that Boston twenty twenty eight is grateful for Governor Healey

80
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: and Mayor Wu and the Democrat leaders across the Commonwealth,

81
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: calling them instrumental and getting us to this point in

82
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,240

Speaker 1: been chosen to move forward in the selection process. Carrigan

87
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: also says that if Boston does host the convention, it

88
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: could bring as much as four hundred million dollars of

89
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: economic benefit to the commonwealth In Boston.

90
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:42,120

Speaker 1: Freedman w BZ, Boston's news radio.

92
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,239
Speaker 2: It was like a scene out of Mission Impossible, dramatic

93
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 2: rescue out of Boston High Rise after five people got

94
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 2: stuck in an elevator and to be lifted hundreds of

95
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: feet to safety. This happened at sixty State Street. The

96
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,359
Speaker 2: elevator was an express elebravator that went directly from the

97
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 2: first floor to the eighteenth and it ended up getting

98
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 2: stuck on the third There were no doors between the

99
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 2: first and eighteenth floors, so firefighters had to drop down

100
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 2: around two hundred feet to rescue the trans people from above.

101
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 2: CBS News Boston reports they had to be hoisted by

102
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 2: ropes from the third floor all the way to the eighteenth.

103
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 2: No one was hurt in the incident. The elevator company

104
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 2: is looking into what caused it. It's almost time to

105
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 2: switch the clocks and spring forward, but that could pose

106
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 2: a higher risk of health problems for some people.

107
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 4: The clocks move ahead an hour on Saturday and to

108
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 4: Sunday for daylight saving time, resulting in the loss of

109
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 4: an hour.

110
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,799
Speaker 5: We are getting more sunlight, so ensuring that you get

111
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 5: sunlight in the morning is going to be one of

112
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 5: the most important things you can do to reset your clock.

113
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,119
Speaker 4: Sleep psychologist Alisha Roth with the Cleveland Clinics. As history

114
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 4: shows in the week after the time changed, the number

115
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 4: of heart attacks, strokes, and motor vehicle crashes increases. She

116
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 4: recommends people head into the time change well rested, getting

117
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 4: seven hours of sleep at night, and avoid caffeine and

118
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 4: alcohol before bed. I'm Tammy Trichio.
