Poll: Republicans more likely to trust Trump than official election results

CHICAGO | Republicans are more likely to trust Donald Trump and his campaign over government certified election results, according to a new survey from the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and USAFacts.

And while most Americans trust government-certified election results, they are also heading into the November election with concerns about misinformation and a low trust in the information they receive from presidential candidates and the federal government.

Many find it difficult to access information about presidential candidates but easier to find information about how and where to vote.

Israel releases video of tunnel where it says Hamas militants killed six hostages

JERUSALEM | The Israeli military has released video footage of a Gaza tunnel where it says six hostages were recently killed by Hamas. The video released Tuesday shows a low, narrow passageway deep underground that had no bathroom and poor ventilation.

The discovery of the hostages’ bodies last month sparked a mass outpouring of anger in Israel. Thousands took to the streets to demand Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reach a cease-fire deal with Hamas to bring the remaining hostages home.

An Israeli military spokesman said Tuesday the footage of the Gaza tunnel had been shown to the families, and that it “was very hard for them to see how their loved ones survived in those conditions.”
