By Hyung-jin Kim, Kim Tong-Hyung and Jon Gambrell | Associated PressSEOUL, South Korea — Hamas fighters likely fired North Korean weapons during their Oct. 7 assault on Israel, a militant video and weapons seized by Israel show, despite Pyongyang’s denials that it arms the militant group.South Korean officials, two experts on North Korean arms and an Associated Press analysis of weapons captured on the battlefield by Israel point toward Hamas using Pyongyang’s F-7 rocket-propelled grenade, a shoulder-fired weapon that fighters typically use against armored vehicles.The evidence shines a light on the murky world of the illicit arms shipments that sanction-battered North Korea uses as a way to fund its own conventional and nuclear weapons programs.Rocket-propelled grenade launchers fire a single warhead and can be quickly reloaded, making them valuable weapons for guerrilla forces in running skirmishes with heavy vehicles. The F-7 has been documented in Syria, Iraq, Lebano...49ers’ initial practice for Vikings won’t involve Christian McCaffrey, others

(CNN) — Tensions boiled over inside a closed-door meeting of House Republicans on Thursday, the latest sign of chaos and division as they struggle to elect a new speaker following Kevin McCarthy’s historic ouster. Rep. Jim Jordan, lacking the votes to become speaker, is poised to pivot strategy by backing a plan to expand the power of the interim speaker for the rest of the year, a move that is already triggering a backlash from some members of his party. The GOP conference meeting turned heated, multiple sources told CNN, with some members railing against Jordan and one swearing at GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz, who led the rebellion against McCarthy. At one point, Gaetz was told to sit down by McCarthy and refused to sit down, then Rep. Mike Bost “got all emotional and ugly and was cussing him” and “telling him it’s all his fault,” one member said. Other Republicans, including some who supported Jordan, railed against him for backing the resolution ...How the Big Ten and SEC media deals cleared a path for more Pac-12 broadcasts on ESPN and ABC
