A gunman wielding an assault-style rifle killed at least 20 people and injured 26 more on Saturday at a busy Walmart and shopping mall not far from the Mexican border, authorities said, in the latest mass shooting to shatter a community and shake the country.
The attack, just before 10 a.m. on a scorching Texas summer day, sent shoppers racing for cover in a chaotic but all-too-familiar scene of carnage that prompted a massive police and medical response.
One official said the specific number of people killed and injured was subject to change, noting that some of the victims were in critical condition. It was not known how many of the injured were shot or were hurt trying to escape the scene.

Some 6,000 Palestinians protested along the Israel-Gaza border on Friday, in part of the ongoing weekly “Great March of Return” protests.
Rioters reportedly hurled rocks and explosive devices toward Israeli troops, and some even tried to breach through Hamas checkpoints set up on the Gaza side, reported Israeli’s Kan public broadcaster.
The Palestinian health ministry said 49 demonstrators were injured, 24 of them by Israel Defense Forces live fire. The health ministry also said two reporters, one a Chinese national, were wounded during the riots but did not mention their condition.

President Donald Trump announced Friday that Rep. John Ratcliffe, R-Texas, his embattled pick to lead the nation’s intelligence community, was withdrawing from consideration and would remain in Congress.
The lawmaker was facing intense questions about padding his resume and a lack of experience, which led to a lukewarm reception on Capitol Hill.
Trump said he would announce a new pick for director of national intelligence shortly.
In tweets, Trump said that Ratcliffe was being treated “very unfairly” by the media.

Amazon has acquired Israeli technology startup E8 Storage, reported Reuters on Wednesday, citing “a source familiar with the deal.”

Tucker: Democrats’ moral superiority over Americans is a turn off for voters.
WATCH:

Secretary of State Michael Pompeo said nuclear talks with North Korea would not be stymied by Pyongyang’s third test in a week of a new ballistic missile that weapons experts say was designed to strike U.S. allies in East Asia.
Pompeo was speaking Friday on the sidelines of the ASEAN Foreign Ministers meeting in Bangkok, just hours after it appeared North Korea had likely fired a new type of short-range ballistic missile. Officials from the U.S. and South Korea recognized the “flight characteristics” of projectiles similar to those launched July 31.

U.S. employers kept adding workers at a healthy pace in July and wage gains picked up, underlining a solid labor market ahead of this week’s Federal Reserve interest-rate cut and President Donald Trump’s threat to ratchet up tariffs on Chinese goods.
Payrolls rose 164,000, almost matching projections, though the two prior months were revised lower, according to a Labor Department report Friday. The jobless rate held at 3.7%, near a half-century low, while average hourly earnings climbed 3.2% from a year earlier, better than forecast.

July was Earth’s hottest month ever recorded, “on a par with, and possibly marginally higher” than the previous warmest month, which was July 2016, according to provisional data from the Copernicus Climate Change Service. This European climate agency will have a full report for all of July on Monday, but a spokesperson said enough data (through July 29) has already come in to make this declaration.
The monthly global average temperature anomaly was 2.16 degrees (1.2 Celsius) above preindustrial levels, the center reported in its preliminary figures Friday.
On Thursday, United Nations Secretary General António Guterres cited the data at a news conference as an example of why more ambitious action to cut planet-warming greenhouse gases is needed.

A New York Police Department disciplinary official has recommended the firing of the officer videotaped with his arm around the neck of 43-year-old Eric Garner just before he died in 2014, officials said Friday.
The recommendation to fire Daniel Pantaleo, whose actions sparked protests, a federal investigation, and ongoing political debate over police conduct toward minorities, comes a month after Justice Department officials announced the officer would not face criminal charges.
The recommendation follows a weeks-long internal NYPD trial to determine if Pantaleo broke department rules. A lawyer for Pantaleo did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
