Police killed student outside Wisconsin school after reports of someone with a weapon, official says
Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul said police shot and killed a student outside a middle school after receiving report of someone with a weapon.

Kaul spoke Wednesday evening at the first law enforcement briefing on an incident that sent children fleeing amid gunshots earlier in the day.

The current round of talks appears to be serious, with Hamas considering a new proposal. But the sides remain far apart on the key issue of whether the war should end as part of an emerging deal. In talks with Blinken, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu repeated his determination to carry out an offensive on the southern Gaza town of Rafah, where more than a million Palestinians are sheltering.
