Activists say the death toll from a crackdown over Iran’s nationwide protests has reached at least 7,002 with many more people still feared dead. The U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency offered the latest figures Thursday. It has been accurate in counting deaths during previous rounds of unrest in Iran and relies on a network of activists in Iran to verify deaths. Iran’s government offered its only death toll on Jan. 21, saying 3,117 people were killed. Iran’s theocracy in the past has undercounted or not reported fatalities from past unrest. The Associated Press has been unable to independently assess the death toll, given authorities have disrupted internet access and international calls in Iran.

The U.S. military says two Navy ships deployed as part of the Trump administration’s massive military buildup in the Caribbean Sea have collided. U.S. Southern Command said in a statement Thursday that two personnel reported minor injuries and that both are in stable condition. The ships kept sailing safely after the collision Wednesday that happened while a supply ship was replenishing the destroyer USS Truxtun. The administration built up the largest military presence in the region in generations as it's carried out deadly strikes on alleged drug boats, seized sanctioned oil tankers and conducted a surprise raid that captured Venezuela’s then-president, Nicolás Maduro.

Federal authorities have announced an end to Operation Metro Surge, the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in Minnesota that began December 1 and resulted in mass detentions, protests and at least two deaths. Border czar Tom Homan made the announcement during a news conference Thursday, saying the operation’s conclusion follows ongoing discussions with state and local officials and reflects changes in enforcement strategy. The crackdown, which focused on the Minneapolis–Saint Paul area, led to more than 4,000 arrests, including many people with no criminal records, and drew widespread criticism from residents and civil rights groups. Homan stated the wind-down marks a shift in federal priorities as authorities aim to reduce tensions and focus on targeted cooperation. Officials also previously announced the withdrawal of hundreds of immigration enforcement personnel as part of the process.

Four Democratic-led states are suing the Trump administration over plans to cut hundreds of millions of dollars in public health funding. California, Colorado, Illinois and Minnesota argue the move is political retaliation tied to their opposition to the president’s immigration crackdown. The Department of Health and Human Services has notified Congress it intends to withhold roughly $600 million in grants, with some of the cuts potentially taking effect as soon as this week. State leaders warn the funding losses could impact disease tracking, prevention programs and other critical health services.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos says he’s navigating unfamiliar territory as national attention intensifies around the disappearance of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie’s mother. Eighty-four-year-old Nancy Guthrie was reported missing from her Tucson-area home on Jan. 31. Since then, Nanos has held multiple press briefings, attempting to balance public transparency with protecting investigative details — an approach he admits hasn’t always landed smoothly. “I’m not used to everyone hanging onto my every word,” Nanos told reporters, acknowledging the heightened scrutiny. The sheriff has faced criticism over several decisions, including allowing Guthrie’s home to be returned to the family after investigators processed the scene. Before authorities resecured the property, journalists photographed what officials later confirmed were droplets of Guthrie’s blood near the front door. He also drew backlash for attending a University of Arizona basketball game while the search was ongoing. Nanos defended the decision, saying investigators cannot work nonstop and he needed time to decompress. The case entered its second week with investigators releasing surveillance video showing a masked person wearing a gun holster and backpack approaching Guthrie’s home. The footage does not show what happened to her or whether she is still alive. Authorities briefly detained a man following a traffic stop south of Tucson, but he was later released. Nanos, a longtime law enforcement official who has led the sheriff’s office since 2015, says his team remains fully committed to solving the case as public pressure continues to mount.

Aviation experts have long recommended advanced aircraft locator systems that allow pilots to track nearby air traffic in real time, improving situational awareness and reducing the risk of crashes. The Senate Commerce Committee is scheduled to hold a hearing today to examine whether the technology should be required on aircraft operating around the nation’s busiest airports.
