As of the latest recording, there is no further information on the shooter's identity or motive. The incident has resulted in heightened security concerns on the campus. In Gaza, the Israeli military intensifies its campaign, encircling the city of Khan Younis, targeting the home of top Hamas leader Yehya Sinwar. France freezes Sinwar's assets for six months. The fourth Republican presidential primary debate takes place, featuring four out of five remaining candidates, including Nikki Haley, Ron DeSantis, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Chris Christie.
