Speaker 2: We defining local.

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 3: News fifty one degrees in Boston right now. Just a

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 3: few story clouds over at Logan Airport. It's eleven o'clock.

5
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 3: Good morning. I'm Nicole Davis and here's what's happening. Stopping

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 3: our news for another day. War in the Middle East,

7
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 3: and for the second time in a week, NATO has

8
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 3: shot down a missile flying toward Turkey from Iran. Turkey,

9
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 3: of course, and NATO allies with strike inside its territory

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 3: could threaten to drag the entire alliance into this growing war.

11
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 3: Also developing this morning, Human Rights Watch claiming Israel is

12
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,959
Speaker 3: using white phosphorus as at bombs civilian areas in Lebanon.

13
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 3: That is something generally considered to break international law. The

14
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 3: IVF denies it. Meantime, the US and Israel is still

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: striking Iran's oil facilities. Here's ABC's Macupman.

16
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 2: Over the weekend, Israel for the first time, targeting Eraon's

17
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 2: critical infrastructure. Massive fireballs lit the city with an eerie

18
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: orange glow. The Red Crescent says over thirteen hundred have

19
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: been killed in the streets rivers of fire as oil

20
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 2: leaked into Iran's sewage system and ignited.

21
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 3: And as the cost of crude oil on the markets

22
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 3: continues to skyrocket, we are feeling the impacts of the

23
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 3: war at the gas pump.

24
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: Since the first US is rarely attacks on Iran. On

25
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: February twenty eighth, the price of gasoline is up seventeen percent,

26
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: surging right along with crude oil.

27
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 4: Gas price is definitely going out, so higher as I've

28
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 4: seen in quite a.

29
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: While, and consumers have no illusions about what's next. I

30
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: can only see it going up.

31
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 4: There's only so much oil to go around.

32
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: In California, the average gas price is five twenty a gallon.

33
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 1: The lowest is in Kansas at two ninety two Jim

34
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: Rang and ABC News.

35
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 3: Now Here in Massachusetts, Triple A says the average price

36
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 3: for a gallon of regular unleaded is three dollars thirty

37
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 3: one cents. That is forty cents higher than it was

38
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 3: one week ago. The G seven is holding off on

39
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 3: tapping into strategic reserves to try to lower these soaring prices.

40
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 3: Now what the war first broke out? Last weekend? We

41
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: told you there had been a deadly strike in a

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 3: girls school in Iran. More than a week later, there

43
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 3: are still questions about that strike. President Trump claims Iran

44
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 3: is to blame, but there's growing speculation the US might

45
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: have also been involved. Here's ABC's Martha Raditz.

46
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 5: Sources now telling ABC that it is possible the US

47
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 5: hit the school by mistake. Experts telling us more than

48
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 5: ten years ago the school was part of a larger

49
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 5: Iranian Revolutionary Guard military complex, but a new analysis by

50
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 5: ABC News suggests the Iranian girls school had been separated

51
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 5: from the military compound long ago.

52
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 3: More than one hundred and sixty five people were killed

53
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 3: in that strike, most of whom were children. Defense Secretary

54
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 3: Pete Hexseth saying last week the United States is investigating

55
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 3: and that the US never targets civilians. Looking ahead to

56
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 3: the forecast for the rest of the day, we are

57
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 3: going to have a phenomenal afternoon outside. We've got just

58
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 3: a few stray clouds from time to time, and right

59
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 3: now temperatures are in the forties for most of us,

60
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 3: seeing some fifties already popping up on the coast, and

61
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 3: we are warming up pretty quickly up to about sixty

62
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 3: or so for the high today right by the harbor

63
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 3: and along the coast mid sixties inland, and if you're

64
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 3: on the capein Islands, staying in the mid fifties for tonight,

65
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 3: mostly clear areas of low clouds are possible on the

66
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 3: capin Islands low near forty. For tomorrow sunning clouds, warmer

67
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 3: still we've got a high in the mid upper sixties.

68
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 3: Still a bit cooler on the capein Islands as you're

69
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 3: dealing with a bit more cloud cover now for your Wednesday,

70
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,519
Speaker 3: a few showers out there. We have a high in

71
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 3: the mid upper fifties, and on Thursday, heavier, steady rain

72
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 3: comes in Right now fifty one degrees as we get

73
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 3: into Nashaua and New Hampshire south the Boston fifty two

74
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 3: in Weymouth, west of Boston, fifty six already in Worcester.

75
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 3: In Boston at eleven oh five, it is partly cloudy

76
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 3: and we're up to fifty four degrees. This week's warm

77
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 3: up comes as a big relief, of course, for all

78
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 3: of us after that blizzard, but especially so for the

79
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: Cape Wildlife Center. They're on a long road to recover

80
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 3: recovery after this winter storms.

81
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 6: Yours WBC's Jim McKay as a wildlife vetter in hospital.

82
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 6: We treat him out two hundred and twenty five different species.

83
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 4: Zach Mertz's CEO of the Cape Wildlife Center and Barstable,

84
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 4: giving me a tour of blizzard related damage that was

85
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 4: seemingly endless.

86
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 6: So we're in the we're in our awards building now

87
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 6: and unfortunately above us is one of the furnaces in

88
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,239
Speaker 6: the ceiling that failed after it put in about twenty

89
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 6: five really good years. When the power went out for

90
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 6: an extended period, it really exacerbated a lot of the

91
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 6: age related issues.

92
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 4: Busted furnaces, burst pipes, flood damage. They were hit from

93
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 4: all angles for days and are now on a donation

94
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 4: drive to help them recover.

95
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 6: This building is really critical to what we do because

96
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 6: it gives the patients the long term environment they need

97
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 6: to get better.

98
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 4: The blizzard of twenty six well gone, but certainly not forgotten.

99
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 4: From the Cape Wildlife Center and Barstable. Jim McKay wb

Speaker 4: Z Boston's news radio.

101
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 3: Back on Back last week. Late last week, Governor Mori

102
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: Healey reached out to Homeland Security and ICE asking for quote,

103
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 3: completely accurate information about everybody who's been arrested by ICE

104
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 3: in Massachusetts since the President's immigration crackdowns started over the weekend.

105
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: In response, ICE had todd lyons in Massachusetts, US Attorney

106
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 3: Leah Foley put out a statement calling it rich that

107
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 3: Governor Healy is asking for the information as they say

108
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 3: Massachusetts still refuses to share certain info with federal law enforcement.

109
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 3: Healy's office hitting right back, saying if ICE is so

110
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 3: confident they're only arresting criminals, why are they refusing to

111
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 3: release information about the arrests, and a statement the office

112
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 3: goes on to say it's because they know the majority

113
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 3: of those arrested don't have a criminal background. Now, in

114
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 3: response to that, Lions and fully say those arrested who

115
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 3: were here illegally were breaking the law for that alone,

116
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 3: claiming the majority had also committed serious crimes in the

117
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 3: US or in their native countries. And the Department of

118
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 3: Homeland Security is still shut down, which means for the

119
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 3: second time in six months, TSA officers are working without pay,

120
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 3: and that means more agents are calling out sick, and

121
00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: that means longer wait times.

122
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 7: An organization representing airlines is urging Congress and the administration

123
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 7: to negotiate a deal, saying America's transportation security workforce is

124
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 7: too important to be used as political leverage, but now

125
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 7: a possible new logjam in Congress. President Trump says he

126
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 7: won't sign any new bills into law until the Senate

127
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 7: approves the Save Act. That's a bill that would require

128
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 7: people show proof of citizenship and of photo ID in

129
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 7: order to vote. Democrats claim it'll lead to voter suppression.

130
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 3: That is ABC's hannahatab Masscorp, by the way, telling us

131
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 3: they're not seeing any TSA staffing problems at Logan due

132
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,320
