Extended Ceasefire in Lebanon, Islamabad Talks, and Trump Fast-Tracking Psychedelics

Talks in Washington on Thursday yielded a three-week extension of the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire, even as Iran proxy Hezbollah and Israel continue to exchange fire in the southern buffer zone. NBC News correspondent and “Here’s the Scoop” host Yasmin Vossoughian explains how the “non-aggression pact” to disarm Hezbollah would work and why the Lebanese are still cautiously optimistic. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has taken a variety of actions this week to ease restrictions on highly regulated drugs like psychedelics and medical marijuana. NBC News health and medical reporter Erika Edwards explains how reclassifying those drugs could open up new options for research and treatment — and why it’s happening at such a breakneck speed.
