00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:21.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm Suzanne Sawsville. Here's what's happening. Not all moms get

5
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:25.440
<v Speaker 2>to celebrate with their children. In Dorchester, thousands came out

6
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:28.719
<v Speaker 2>for an annual Mother's Day event honoring moms who have

7
00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:33.280
<v Speaker 2>lost their kids to violence. Wbz's Hyle Shaffle has more.

8
00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:37.079
<v Speaker 3>The Walk for Peace takes place very intentionally on Mother's Day.

9
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:38.880
<v Speaker 3>It can be an emotional day for mothers who have

10
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:41.240
<v Speaker 3>had children taken too soon by violence.

11
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:43.280
<v Speaker 1>On a day that we're afraid. We're leaning into each

12
00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:46.000
<v Speaker 1>other because we need it. We can't do this alone,

13
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:48.759
<v Speaker 1>and we're not alone. So many people have been through it.

16
00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:57.159
<v Speaker 3>the mostly local gathering of grieving families is now a

17
00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:00.320
<v Speaker 3>massive event that draws thousands even from far outside Austin

18
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:02.200
<v Speaker 3>and overseas, and the mayor.

19
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:07.239
<v Speaker 4>It reminds you that motherhood is transformational. You will do

20
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.599
<v Speaker 4>anything for this little being in your life.

21
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:13.280
<v Speaker 3>The participants here walk to raise money for the institute

22
00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:16.319
<v Speaker 3>and to raise awareness about how violence can tear families apart.

23
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:18.680
<v Speaker 3>The goal of this year is six hundred grand money

24

<v Speaker 2>spoke to the media after Sunday's meeting wrapped up.

29
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:43.359

<v Speaker 5>and I spoke to President Trump, as did Ambassador Jamison

32
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:55.719
<v Speaker 5>last night.

33
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:59.400
<v Speaker 2>The talks aim to ease trade tensions between the US

34
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:05.000
<v Speaker 2>and China amid aggressive tariffs. Hamas says it plans to

35
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:10.280

36
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:14.520
<v Speaker 2>looks to get a ceasefire deal across the finish line.

<v Speaker 2>CBS's Linda Gradstein has the details.

38
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.680

00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:24.759
<v Speaker 4>intensified negotiations aimed at reaching a final agreement to end

40
00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:29.319
<v Speaker 4>the war, establish a mutually agreed prisoner exchange, and allow

41
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:33.719
<v Speaker 4>Gaza to be administered by an independent professional authority. While

42
00:02:33.719 --> 00:02:36.960
<v Speaker 4>Idan Alexander is the only US citizens still being held

43
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:40.360

44
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:43.840

<v Speaker 4>the brink of famine. After Israel has refused to allow

46
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:51.120
<v Speaker 4>humanitarian aid to enter Gaza for more than two months.
