NEW: #DCA tower controller was handling 6 airplanes and 5 helicopters simultaneously - on different frequencies - at the time of #AA5342 collision. And planes couldn't hear helicopter and vice versa, so AA pilots had no idea the helicopter was out there. @MSNOWNews #NTSB

There are still 4 American #hostages in #Gaza. The #US believes they are no longer alive, but their families will never be able to move on until they get them back.
Ruby and @hagitchen, parents of US Israel hostage Itay Chen recently met @FBIDirectorKash . We discussed how the FBI can apply more pressure to support @SteveWitkoff and @StateSPEHA negotiation efforts to release the hostages in Gaza. The FBI Director promised his personal commitment to bring the remaining four US hostages in Gaza (Itay Chen, Omer Neutra, Gadi and Judi Weinstein) back home.

As the Police Commissioner, my responsibility is to ensure that the women and men of the NYPD have the tools, resources, and, most importantly, the support they need to continue reducing crime. Together, we will work tirelessly to ensure that every New Yorker is safe, feels safe, and has a better quality of life.
