AMNA NAWAZ: We start the day's other headlines## with a major development towards# ending a decades-long conflict.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda# signed a peace agreement in Washington today.## The Trump administration mediated the deal.

The# African nation's top diplomats put pen to paper## at the State Department alongside Secretary# Marco Rubio.

Experts doubt it will end the## fighting right away, but Rubio hailed it# as an important first step toward peace.

MARCO RUBIO, U.S. Secretary of State: For all# the things that make life worth living, those## things become impossible when there's war and when# there's conflict.

So we're grateful to have played## the role we have played.

We acknowledge and# recognize there's still more work to be done.

AMNA NAWAZ: Today's agreement follows# decades of conflict that has its roots in## Rwanda's 1994 genocide.

It's been driven# by fighting between two ethnic groups,## among other factors.

Analysts say# millions have lost their lives.

The deal also comes as the U.S. competes# with China for influence in Africa and## access to minerals that are critical# for much of the world's technology.

In Pakistan, a surprise flood swept away dozens# of tourists as they picnicked along a river,## killing at least eight people.

It happened in# Pakistan's northwest Swat Valley.

The annual## monsoon season begins in July, but much of the# country has been hit with heavy rain all week.

Local residents looked on at the still# swollen river as nearly 100 rescuers## searched for the missing.

At least# 58 people have been rescued so far.## Eyewitnesses say the deluge came out of nowhere.

SHIRAZ KHAN, Eyewitness: (through# translator): The flow was so fast## that a regular person could not dare# enter the river.

Then the wate.. got so strong that it got difficult# for even rescue personnel to enter it.

AMNA NAWAZ: Officials say at least 18# people have now died in rain-related## incidents across Pakistan in just the past day.

Back in this country, Minnesota's# former House Speaker Melissa Hortman## lay in state today at the Capitol Rotunda in# St. Paul.

She is the first woman ever to be## afforded the honor in Minnesota.

Hortman and her# husband, Mark, were shot and killed in their home## earlier this month in what authorities# call the politically motivated attack.

Their golden retriever, Gilbert, was also# shot and had to be euthanized.

Governor Tim## Walz and his wife were among the hundreds of# mourners who paid their respects.

Meanwhile,## their accused killer appeared briefly# at a federal court just a mile away,## though proceedings have been# delayed until next week.

California Governor Gavin Newsom is suing FOX# News for alleged defamation over its coverage## of a phone call he had with President Trump# earlier this month.

He's seeking $787 million in## damages.

That's the same amount FOX paid Dominion# Voting Systems to settle its defamation lawsuit.

Newsom also wants an on-air# apology from Jesse Watters,## saying that the FOX anchor accused him of# lying about the call on his show.

Newsom## and Trump did speak around the time of the# recent protests in Los Angeles, though they## disagree over the timeline.

FOX News dismissed# the lawsuit as a -- quote -- "publicity stunt."

The U.S. military is officially stripping the## name of gay rights activist# Harvey Milk from a Navy ship.

PETE HEGSETH, U.S. Defense Secretary: We# are taking the politics out of ship naming.

AMNA NAWAZ: Defense Secretary Pete# Hegseth announced the move on social## media earlier today.

It's part of a broader# Trump administration push against diversity,## equity and inclusion efforts, or DEI.

Harvey Milk# served in the Navy before entering politics, where## he became one of the nation's first openly gay# elected officials.

He was assassinated in 1978.

Hegseth says the ship will be# renamed for Oscar V. Peterson,## a Navy chief who posthumously received the# Medal of Honor for Valor during World War II.

On Wall Street today, stocks closed at record# highs.

That's despite President Trump saying## he is canceling trade talks with Canada over its# plans to tax technology firms starting on Monday.## The Dow Jones industrial average added more than# 400 points, or exactly 1 percent.

The Nasdaq## gained around 100 points on the day.

The S&P 500# topped its previous record set back in February.

Still to come on the "News Hour": the president of# the University of Virginia resigns under pressure## from the Justice Department; the increase in state# laws banning Pride flags on government buildings;## and David Brooks and Jonathan Capehart# weigh in on the week's political headlines.
