Speaker 2: At eleven oh one, Israel launching strikes at Iranian governments
Speaker 2: in Tehran this morning, after a series of drone and
Speaker 2: missile strikes from the Iranians on Israel. Not long after
Speaker 2: the US hit Iranian nuclear targets over the weekend. President
Speaker 2: Trump posted on truth social hinting at his support for
Speaker 2: regime change in Iran. The White House is now walking
Speaker 2: back those comments, but there is still a bit of
Speaker 2: unease throughout d C over the move to enter the conflict.
Speaker 2: Here's ABC's Rachel Scott.
Speaker 3: This moved by the President is dividing the Republican Party.
Speaker 3: He campaigned on keeping America out of foreign conflicts. So
Speaker 3: on one Republican leadership standing by the President, supporting this move,
Speaker 3: but a handful of Republicans are speaking out, including Congressman
Speaker 3: Thomas Massey calling the President's moves here unconstitutional.
Speaker 2: And President Trump on social media criticizing Massy, saying he
Speaker 2: is not part of MAGA and is a quote simple
Speaker 2: minded grand standard. Now, the National Terrorism Advisory System put
Speaker 2: out a new bulletin after those strikes this weekend. In
Speaker 2: the bulletin, they said there is a quote heightened threatened
Speaker 2: environment when it comes to the wake of those strikes.
Speaker 2: Here in Massachusetts, Governor Moore Heally says she's already been
Speaker 2: briefed directly by the Homeland Security Secretary Christine Nome when
Speaker 2: it came it comes to Massachusetts. At this point, she
Speaker 2: says there are no specific threats. She does say though,
Speaker 2: the state is coordinating with local and federal partners and
Speaker 2: they are monitoring the situation as it develops. At eleven
Speaker 2: oh two, Boston Police say three people were taken to
Speaker 2: local hospitals last night after they were shot. The first
Speaker 2: responders were called to the scene just before nine point
Speaker 2: thirty on Whalen Street in Dorchester. When they got there,
Speaker 2: they found two men who had apparently been shot. Both
Speaker 2: were taken to a nearby hospital and are expected to survive.
Speaker 2: But after that a third person who had been shot
Speaker 2: was also found near the scene. That person was also
Speaker 2: taken to the hospital, but it's not clear how badly
Speaker 2: they were hurt. At this point, police have not released
Speaker 2: any motive or any suspects here, but if you have
Speaker 2: any information, you're asked to give police a call. It
Speaker 2: is very warm and very humid out there, and it's
Speaker 2: only going to become more so over the next day
Speaker 2: and a half or so. The National Weather Service says
Speaker 2: we are in in extreme heat warning until tomorrow night.
Speaker 2: The thing is here, when it comes to this heat,
Speaker 2: we have the humidity, We've got the heat together. That
Speaker 2: means we are potentially dealing with some dangerous heat indexes
Speaker 2: out there, pushing at times one hundred five to one
Speaker 2: hundred and ten. Even today it's already again eleven o'clock
Speaker 2: or so, and we're already in the nineties in many spots,
Speaker 2: getting up to the mid nineties or so if you're
Speaker 2: outside the city of Boston, low to mid eighties on
Speaker 2: the capin Islands, in Boston and in the Greater Boston
Speaker 2: area seeing high in the upper eighties. But again those
Speaker 2: real fields today pushing one hundred degrees. For tonight, we
Speaker 2: get little to no relief, a low just seventy five degrees,
Speaker 2: so you're gonna need the cold shower in fans or
Speaker 2: the ac tonight, mid sixties if you're on the capin Islands,
Speaker 2: and tomorrow is supposed to be the hottest day of
Speaker 2: this whole venture. Here we have extremely hot and humid conditions.
Speaker 2: Highs in the upper nineties, low one hundreds, especially if
Speaker 2: you're inland, a little bit closer to ninety on the coast,
Speaker 2: and we'll have that heat index at times reaching up
Speaker 2: to about one hundred and ten degrees. For your Wednesday,
Speaker 2: still humid but not as warm. We have a high
Speaker 2: in the mid eighties, a couple of stray storms later
Speaker 2: on in the day. All right, let's get a look
Speaker 2: at our temperatures out there right now, seeing eighty seven
Speaker 2: degrees in Westford, north of Boston eighty eight and Haveril
Speaker 2: eighty eight as well in Bridgewater in Boston right now
Speaker 2: at eleven o six, it's eighty seven degrees and it
Speaker 2: feels more like ninety four well in other holidays on
Speaker 2: the horizon, which means another travel record is poised to
Speaker 2: be broken. Wbz's Drew o'holland says a record seventy two
Speaker 2: million people are either hitting the roads or flying in
Speaker 2: the skies for July fourth.
Speaker 4: And that would be a new high for both drivers
Speaker 4: and those with boarding passes. Triple A now considers the
Speaker 4: fourth of July travel period to begin June twenty eighth.
Speaker 4: We are moving quickly, aren't we so? And for Americans,
Speaker 4: many of us like vacationing so much. It is so nice.
Speaker 4: They say, let's do it twice. Yeah, multiple vacations for
Speaker 4: most American families. Drew mahll and WBZ Boston's News radio.
Speaker 2: And Orange Line riders are feeling good. Big case on
Speaker 2: the Mondays today for sure. Signal upgrades are leading to
Speaker 2: service outages. Your wbz's James Rojasa back back.
Speaker 1: It's a mad dash for folks who just learned about
Speaker 1: the suspended service on the Orange Line from back Base
Speaker 1: Station to Forest Hills. This is ridiculous. It's ridiculous, terrible, terrible.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because you have me running left for work.
Speaker 2: It just puts you like behind.
Speaker 1: Service is out for the work week and through Sunday.
Speaker 1: The commuter rail fair free for those affected, and shuttle
Speaker 1: buses are now rolling through for some. However, the timing
Speaker 1: is not good. Better to ride the tea or shuttle
Speaker 1: bus like on these hot days.
Speaker 5: The tea would have been better because you avoid all
Speaker 5: this exposure out there. But again, we don't have a chance,
Speaker 5: so we have to take the tea. But I guess
Speaker 5: we just have to manage it and I'll stay hydrated
Speaker 5: and all of that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, commuters are going to have to keep their cool
Speaker 1: in more ways than one. At Back Bay Station, James Rojas,
