ANNOUNCER: Live from Atlanta, this is CNN NEWSROOM with John Vause.
VAUSE: The U.S. president has announced new trade deals with Japan and the Philippines, as well as the framework for a trade agreement with Indonesia. At the same time, months of negotiations with the long list of other major trading partners remain at a standstill.
President Trump says the deal with Japan is massive, in his words, possibly the largest trade deal in history. Under the agreement, the U.S. will tariff goods imported from Japan at 15 percent, a charge paid for by the American importer. It's still unclear if that applies to Japanese cars and car parts, or whether they'd still be subject to an earlier tariff announced at 25 percent.
The president also says Japan will invest $550 billion into the United States, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs, with the U.S. keeping 90 percent of any profits. But again, no details on how that would actually work.
For the Philippines, a 19 percent tariff on exports to the U.S., part of an agreement announced after President Trump met with the Philippine president in Washington Tuesday. The White House has now announced five trade agreements over the past three months, well short of the promised 90 deals in 90 days, and just over a week now before high U.S. tariffs are set to take effect on almost all imports.
Let's take the markets across Asia. This is being greeted with celebratory on the markets. So you can see the markets are all in the green. The Nikkei in Japan up by almost 3.5 percent, Hong Kong up by just over 1 percent. Shanghai almost 1 percent and Seoul KOSPI pretty much flat. But good news for Japan there, especially with that trade deal now in place.
We go now live to Hong Kong, to CNN's Kristie Lu Stout.
OK, so this was a kind of a back and forth, which didn't seem to be really going anywhere for quite some time. Now we've got this breakthrough. The markets love it. So what do we know more about this deal?
KRISTIE LU STOUT, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Yes. This was long awaited. Trump has announced his long awaited trade deal with Japan. And it comes just hours after he reached a trade deal with the Philippines. And according to the U.S. president, he says that the deal with Japan involves a 15 percent reciprocal tariff, as well as a $550 billion investment from Japan to the United States.
And both countries have also agreed to lower the auto tariff rate to 15 percent. This is according to NHK, which is, of course, a Japanese public broadcaster. Now on Truth Social, that's where Trump said that Japan will open up trade for cars, trucks, rice.
I just want to quote him. I want you to look at this. This is what he is saying right now. On Truth Social, Trump said this, "Japan will open the country to trade, including cars and trucks, rice and certain other agricultural products and other things," unquote.
Now, after this deal was announced, we heard from the Japanese prime minister in a doorstop interview this morning. He said that he will talk to Trump if needed. And he also said this. Let's bring up his comments for you. He said, quote, "We as a government will protect our national interests, and we believe that this will contribute to the creation of jobs, the production of good products, the fulfillment of various roles in the world through the mutual cooperation of Japan and the United States." Of course, markets in Japan are cheering the news.
This is a significant deal. Japan is America's fifth largest source of imports and Japan also has some leverage here. In fact, Japan is America's largest foreign creditor. In fact, it holds some $1.1 trillion in U.S. treasuries.
Now, earlier in the day, that was when Trump announced a trade deal with the Philippines. That deal with the Philippines involves a 19 percent tariff on all goods from the Philippines, zero tariffs on U.S. goods.
[00:05:04]
And that matches the deal that was sealed earlier between the U.S. and Indonesia, and it's slightly lower than the 20 percent rate that Vietnam brokered with the United States.
Now this happened after a White House visit between these two leaders. Trump on Truth Social called it a beautiful visit with the Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. also hailed the relationship with the United States. I want you to listen to this.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
FERDINAND MARCOS JUNIOR, PHILIPPINE PRESIDENT: Our strongest, closest, most reliable ally has always been the United States, and that is something that we value, that we are grateful for, and that we will continue to foster.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
LU STOUT: Now, Trump says that the two countries will work together militarily, did not offer any details. And during that Oval Office event, Trump also noted how the Philippines has, in his words, tilted away from China. Trump also said that he may visit China for a landmark visit in the not-too-distant future.
Back to you.
VAUSE: Kristie, thank you. Kristie Lu Stout there on that trade deal, which it does seem to be a lack of details at the moment, but we'll work them out as time goes by. Thanks, Kristie.
Gaza is facing both a ramped up Israeli military offensive and a growing hunger crisis. Health officials in Gaza City report at least 10 people have been killed in the latest Israeli airstrike. A warning some of the images you're about to see of that attack are disturbing. The Al-Shifa Hospital director says three children, 2, 6 and 10 years old, among the victims. The Israelis say they hit an Islamic jihad militant and the incident is now under review.
Meantime, the U.N. reports more than 1,000 people trying to get food aid in Gaza have been killed by the Israeli military since late May. The European Union's top diplomat calls that indefensible. Israel admits firing warning shots towards crowds in some cases, but is denying responsibility for other incidents. The U.N. secretary-general calls the situation a horror show, with famine now knocking on every door in Gaza. Doctors report at least 15 people have died in a recent 24-hour period.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
GHADA AL-FAYOUMI, PALESTINIAN MOTHER OF SEVEN (through translator): Any morsel of food, it is non-existent here. From the morning they keep drinking water. We spend our days, our time just drinking water.
YASSER SAADA, PALESTINIAN (through translator): I started losing the ability to walk. Losing the ability to move.
AL-NAJJAR (through translator): I swear it has been four days since I have eaten and I can't stand. Look at my hand shaking. We can't stand. Now my son is crying telling me I want to eat, Dad, I want to eat.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
VAUSE: In Tel Aviv, protests are demanding an end to what they call the Israeli government's policy of starvation. They marched through the city carrying bags of flour as well as pictures of malnourished children in Gaza.
More details now from CNN's Paula Hancocks reporting in from Abu Dhabi.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
PAULA HANCOCKS, CNN CORRESPONDENT: As we hear reports of more deaths due to starvation in Gaza, we're also understanding that the Israeli military is ramping up its operations in Central Gaza. Now this is significant. It's an area called Deir al-Balah and it's an area that the IDF has not operated in for 21 months in a ground operation.
Now the IDF is not commenting on this operation at this point, but Israel Army Radio says that they believe there is one battalion that is operating there, and the operation could last several weeks.
Now, there is concern for those on the ground. We know there have been evacuation orders for those in the area since Sunday. We have seen hundreds of people trying to leave the area carrying what they can. We've heard as well from the U.N. human rights chief, and he has said the operation will invariably lead to further civilian deaths, also saying that just when you thought the nightmare couldn't get worse, it does. So there are concerns for those still on the ground in Deir al- Balah,
Now Israeli media had been reporting that they believed the reason the IDF hadn't gone into this area before is because they suspected some hostages were being held there. So we've heard from the forum that represents those families of the hostages, and they say that they are increasingly alarmed that this operation could harm their loved ones that are still being held by Hamas and other militant groups.
We also heard from World Health Organization. They say that in Deir al-Balah, their main warehouse and their staff residents were hit by the Israeli military. They say that the warehouse was looted by desperate crowds shortly afterwards, so they have lost their supplies. And they also say that the women and children were forced to evacuate the staff residents, and that the men were handcuffed, stripped, interrogated on the spot.
Now there is increasing criticism across the board of the humanitarian situation. Israel has been saying through COGAT, its aid group or its agency that helps the distribution of aid, that the IDF is trying to facilitate the release of aid.
[00:10:06]
But we're hearing from the Ministry of Health that 15 people, including four children, have died in just the past 24 hours. We're hearing from hospital officials, this one, the director of the main Al-Shifa Hospital, saying that they are constantly having people coming in with malnutrition and with starvation symptoms. And he said, we are, quote, "heading towards terrifying death tolls."
Now, Israel has pushed back against the criticism, but we are hearing increasing voices that say there needs to be a ceasefire and there needs to be more aid allowed in.
Paula Hancocks, CNN, Abu Dhabi.

VAUSE: The U.S. is once again pulling out of UNESCO, a U.N. agency responsible for promoting science, education and culture. The White House says the withdrawal is because the agency supports woke, divisive culture and social causes, and will be complete by the end of next year.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
TAMMY BRUCE, U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT SPOKESPERSON: UNESCO's decision to admit the, quote, "State of Palestine," end quote, as a member state is highly problematic, contrary to U.S. policy and contributed to the proliferation of anti-Israel rhetoric within the organization.
Continued U.S. participation in international organizations will focus on advancing American interests with clarity and conviction.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
VAUSE: This is the third time the U.S. has withdrawn from UNESCO. Previously it withdrew in 1984, then rejoined in 2003 before withdrawing again under the first term Trump administration. A U.N. spokesperson is denying that accusation from the White House that UNESCO spreads antisemitism.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
STEPHANE DUJARRIC, UNITED NATIONS SPOKESPERSON: I can tell you from UNESCO's standpoint, they have been at the forefront and especially its director general personally in the fight against antisemitism.
I think our comment to every member states is participate if you want to change things.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
VAUSE: Some uncertainty now surrounding a third round of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said those talks will take place in Turkey in the coming hours, but Russian state media is reporting that the meeting is now set for Thursday. The Kremlin is being vague, only saying they hope for more negotiations sometime this week, adding that the conflict is so complex no one should expect any miraculous breakthroughs.
President Zelenskyy is facing a pushback at home after signing a bill reducing the autonomy of two Ukrainian anti-corruption bureaus by placing them under the authority of a prosecutor he appoints. Protesters denounced the new law outside the presidential office in Kyiv. European lawmakers are also critical. The move comes after Ukrainian authorities raided one of the bureaus, accusing two employees of working for Russia.
Zelenskyy, who campaigned as an anti-corruption candidate, says the two agencies will continue their work but without Russian influence.
Brazil's top court has threatened to arrest former president Jair Bolsonaro over allegations he violated a court ordered social media ban. A Supreme Court justice says Bolsonaro gave an interview to journalists, which they later shared on their social media accounts. The judge gave Bolsonaro's legal team 24 hours to explain the media appearance.
Bolsonaro is on trial for allegedly plotting to overturn Brazil's 2022 election results. That's a charge he has denied. He now has to wear an ankle monitor, and he's barred from speaking to foreign officials after the court accused him of reaching out to his buddy Donald Trump to interfere in the case. The U.S. president has called the trial a witch hunt and threatened
tariffs on Brazilian goods in retaliation.
In a moment in southern Syria, hundreds of people, including an American citizen, are dead after the most recent outbreak of sectarian violence. Those details just ahead.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
[00:18:21]
VAUSE: The Syrian government has started an official investigation into days of sectarian violence in the country's south earlier this month. According to one Syrian human rights groups, hundreds were killed in fighting between Druze armed groups and Bedouin tribes.
CNN could not independently verify those figures, but a U.S. brokered ceasefire went into effect on Sunday, prompting the evacuation of hundreds of Bedouin civilians from the majority Druze city of Suwayda. Syria's Interior Ministry says the investigation will try to identify and arrest those behind a string of execution style attacks against the Druze community.
A U.S. citizen of Druze descent was among those killed during the sectarian violence, one of eight men whose killing was recorded on video.
CNN's Ben Wedeman has details. But first, a warning, the images you're about to see are disturbing.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
BEN WEDEMAN, CNN SENIOR INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Shouting Allahu Akbar, God is great, the unidentified gunman appeared triumphant, marching through the streets of the southern Syrian city of Suwayda with prisoners, men from the Druze minority, all members of the same family.
"We wanted to offer you safety, but you refused to leave," someone shouts out of view.
Relatives of the captives told CNN they had fought back against the gunman when their home was surrounded, but surrendered after one of them was wounded. The person who shot the phone video passes by a bullet pocked car. A dead man lies across the front seats. Another clip shows the captives on their knees. Dogs, someone shouts. And then a hail of machine gun fire for 15 seconds, all eight captives were killed.
[00:20:03]
Among the dead Hosam Saraya, a 35-year-old U.S. citizen who had studied in Oklahoma before returning to Syria.
The execution in Suwayda is just a small snapshot of the madness that is since the 13th of July engulfed this part of southern Syria, where various Druze militia, which seek limited autonomy from Damascus, have battled Bedouin tribesmen, loosely aligned with the central government.
The fighting has left hundreds dead, civilians as well as fighters, and has forced more than 90,000 people to flee their homes. Tuesday, Human Rights Watch issued a report claiming all sides, Bedouin and Druze fighters as well as government forces, have committed abuses. A Ministry of Interior spokesman tell CNN, "Such acts are absolutely unacceptable to us, and those who committed them will face justice."
U.S., Turkish and Arab diplomats pushed through a shaky ceasefire, but not before Israel entered the fray bombing targets in Suwayda and Damascus in defense it claimed of the Druze. While the fighting raged, hundreds of Druze from the Israeli occupied Golan Heights and Israel proper crossed into Syria in support of the community in Suwayda.
Last week, Interim Syrian President Ahmed Al Sharaa said in a televised address, "We are all partners in this land, and we will not allow any group to distort this beautiful image that expresses Syria and its diversity."
A diversity now more precarious than ever before.

VAUSE: On Tuesday, a U.S. State Department spokesperson offered condolences to Hosam Saraya's family, saying the department was providing them with consular assistance, but declined to give any other details.
We'll be right back. You're watching CNN.

[00:26:50]
VAUSE: Welcome back, everyone. I'm John Vause. Let's take a look at today's top stories.
Donald Trump has announced a new trade agreement with Japan just days before steep tariffs are set to take effect. Japanese imports will be hit with a 15 percent tariff, and Tokyo has committed to invest $550 billion in the U.S. economy.
The U.N. reports more than 1,000 people trying to access food aid in Gaza have been killed by the Israeli military in recent months. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres calls the situation a horror show, where famine is knocking on every door. Israel claims, without evidence, that Hamas is shooting at civilians.
President Trump is directing the U.S. to leave UNESCO again. The U.S. will withdraw from the U.N. body that promotes education, science and culture by the end of next year. They previously withdrew from UNESCO under the first Trump administration. The White House blames UNESCO for spreading anti-Israel rhetoric, a charge which the U.N. denies.
There is now a flood of tributes coming in for Ozzy Osbourne, the Black Sabbath frontman and legendary heavy metal singer who died Tuesday aged 76, just weeks after his final show. Former bandmate Tony Iommi called Osbourne's death heartbreaking, writing there won't ever be another like him. Queen guitarist Brian May writes, "The world will miss Ozzy's unique presence and fearless talent."
CNN's Stephanie Elam has more now on the heavy metal trailblazer.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
STEPHANIE ELAM, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): He was called the "Prince of Darkness." And for half a century, British musician Ozzy Osbourne rocked heavy metal fans worldwide until his death at age 76 just weeks after taking what was called his final bow.
OSBOURNE: I've been laid up for about six years, and so you've got no idea how I feel.
ELAM: The Black Sabbath frontman reunited with his bandmates for a show called "Back to the Beginning" in his hometown of Birmingham, England.
OSBOURNE: Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
ELAM: Performing with bassist Geezer Butler, drummer Bill Ward, and guitarist Tony Iommi for the first time in two decades, alongside other music legends with Metallica and Guns N' Roses. His family issuing a statement saying during his final moments he was with his family and surrounded by love.
Osbourne's charisma and wildness on and off the stage.
OSBOURNE: Had I known it was a real battle, I would never have bitten into it.
ELAM: Transcended music and made him a cultural phenomenon.
GEORGE W. BUSH, FORMER U.S. PRESIDENT: Ozzy Osbourne.
ELAM: Born John Ozzy Osbourne, he left school at 15 and said he found his calling after listening to the Beatles on the radio.
OSBOURNE: I can remember the first time I heard "She Loves You," that changed my life because I thought, that's what I want to do.
ELAM: Osbourne became lead vocalist of the band that would become Black Sabbath in 1968, and pioneered a daring genre-defining new sound. The heavy guitar and riff based albums "Black Sabbath" and "Paranoid" captivated audiences in 1970.
As Black Sabbath's fame exploded so did Osbourne's hell raising behavior. He was fired from Black Sabbath for drug and alcohol abuse in 1979. Those same issues broke up Osbourne's first marriage and followed him for decades. LARRY KING, FORMER CNN ANCHOR AND HOST: Have you been tempted to go
back to the drug usage?
[00:30:06]
OZZY OSBOURNE, ROCK STAR: All the time. I mean, when you're a drug addict, you don't stop being a drug addict because you stop taking them.
ELAM: But Sharon Arden, the daughter of Black Sabbath's manager, helped get him back on his feet and encouraged him to go solo.
OSBOURNE (singing): I'm going off the rails on a crazy train.
ELAM: Osbourne's debut single, "Crazy Train," got the singer back on the rails.
Ozzy and Sharon married in 1982, and Sharon managed his career for the rest of his life.
Their love was on full display to an entirely new audience in the 2002 MTV reality series "The Osbournes." Ozzy's dry, at times unintelligible, humor and relatable parenting challenges endeared him to millions, and the fly-on-the-wall look at the Osbournes expletive- laden daily life --
OSBOURNE: What the (EXPLETIVE DELETED) is that?
ELAM: -- shot the family to fame.
After years of speculation about his health, Osbourne revealed his Parkinsons's disease diagnosis in an interview with "Good Morning America" in 2020.
But Osbourne was committed to making more music, and three years later, he won two Grammys for his album "Patient Number Nine," bringing his Grammy total to five: three as a solo artist and two with Black Sabbath.
In all, Osbourne made over 20 albums and is among the elite group inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice.
From "Prince of Darkness" to reality TV show dad, Ozzy Osbourne was a man, a myth, and a legend.

JOHN VAUSE, CNN ANCHOR: Well, a summer of love with saucy books. In a moment, we'll visit London's first romance-only bookshop. This isn't your grandmother's Mills and Boon.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
[00:36:33]
VAUSE: The English national women's football team is advancing to the Euro 2020 final after narrowly defeating Italy 2 to 1 in Tuesday's semifinal.
King Charles sent a message of congratulations on a journey which he says has inspired countless of girls and women across the nation. The Lionesses will face either Spain or Germany in Sunday's final in Switzerland.
So, when is it a charming, sweet, and heartwarming tale of love and romance? When is it just plain old smut? That's the question Isa Soares put to the owner of London's first romance-only bookshop, which has just opened and is hoping to cash in on a surge in sales for what was once described as escapist fiction for the ladies.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
ISA SOARES, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Are you looking for romance? Well, this could be just the place for you.
This is London's first romance-only bookshop. Come with me.
SOARES (voice-over): Here you can swoon, sigh, and daydream to your heart's content. There's the classics, of course, but this isn't your grandmother's romance section.
There's romantasy, cowboy romance, hockey romance, fiery enemies-to- lovers stories, and even, yes, slightly saucier and steamier ones. But founder Sarah Maxwell tells me there's nothing to blush about.
SARAH MAXWELL, FOUNDER, SAUCY BOOKS: So many of these amazing books have been dubbed as quote, unquote, "smut." And I think that's really unfair, because they have, you know, great character building, amazing plot. A lot of time, it's very political. It's not, you know, it isn't smut.
So, I felt like we should reclaim that word. So, we have a "smut hut," which is where -- the destination for all the most popular books, actually.
SOARES (voice-over): Saucy Books is part of a growing trend: romance- only bookstores popping up across the U.K., the U.S. and Canada.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I've always been a little bit unashamed, but shy about kind of saying that I like reading romance, because it feels then that people will not take you seriously as a reader.
SOARES (voice-over): The appetite is voracious. Romance sales in the U.K. alone totaled more than $90 million last year, a surge partly fueled by "book tok."
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I love this book because it's so relatable. It's not a fluffy romance book.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: This book is the blueprint for good romance.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Over fantasy romance. I would recommend that you start with either the "Powerless" trilogy or the "Crimson Moth" duology. SOARES (voice-over): Which has brought in a wave of new, younger
readers.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Nowadays, people are coming out about it more and being able to connect and bond. And I know that's one of the reasons why I love romance so much, is being able to talk with friends and, like, analyze the plot. And it's really a community-building aspect.
JULIE ANDREWS, ACTRESS (voice-over): Dearest gentle reader.
SOARES (voice-over): Adding to the success, hit TV adaptations like "Bridgerton" --
NICOLA COUGHLIN, ACTRESS: There's nothing that makes me happier than being with you.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I'm an opponent.
SOARES (voice-over): -- and "Rivals."
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Makes life much more exciting.
SOARES (voice-over): From the screen to the page, modern romance, it seems, is blooming.
MAXWELL: I think people really recognize themselves in these characters, and they feel very empowered by them. And so, they are almost proud to acknowledge that they have read that book.
SOARES (voice-over): And as author Jack Strange, who writes gay romance novels, points out, it's also relatable.
JACK STRANGE, AUTHOR: And from my perspective, being able to write, like, more diverse stories for people, because people want those stories.
SOARES: Yes.
STRANGE: And especially now with, like, everything going on, we want fun, and we want excitement --
SOARES: Yes.
STRANGE: -- and escapism.
[00:40:05]
SOARES (voice-over): And readers are lapping it up.
