Child grabs loaded gun in a Huston apartment before unintentionally shooting her 4-year-old sister

Tragedy in Texas after a 3-year-old girl fatally wounded her 4-year-old sister in an unintentional shooting.

The Texas Harris County sheriff says a group of family and friends, including five adults and the two children, were hanging out inside a Houston apartment on Sunday when the incident occurred.

The children were left unsupervised in a bedroom when each parent thought the other was watching them.

The 3-year-old then got hold of a loaded semiautomatic pistol shortly before the family heard a gunshot and ran into the room.

The other 4-year-old girl was found unresponsive on the floor.

Unfortunately accidents like these aren’t uncommon.

There were over 2,000 unintentional shootings by children under 18 years old between 2015 and 2020, resulting in 765 deaths and 1,366 injuries.

The sheriff says the investigation is ongoing and notes, in situations like this, it is “very likely”that someone will face charges for failing to secure the weapon. #trending #featured

Israel and Hamas agree to release hostages in U.S.-brokered deal, marking a potential turning point in Gaza conflict.

In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Israel and Hamas have agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages under a U.S.-brokered framework. The deal pairs prisoner exchanges with an Israeli troop pullback and expanded aid access, marking a potential turning point in the two-year Gaza conflict.

The agreement, set for approval by Israel’s cabinet, could pave the way for lasting peace if both sides uphold the terms. It follows weeks of negotiations led by U.S. envoys and regional mediators in Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye.

As international agencies prepare to facilitate aid and logistics, the world watches to see whether this fragile deal can hold and bring relief to millions affected by the war.
