August 5, 2025 - PBS News Hour full episode

Season 2025 Episode 217 | 57m 46s

Tuesday on the News Hour, new propaganda videos of hostages held by Hamas ramp up the pressure on Israel to reach a ceasefire. We speak with the cousin of one hostage forced to dig his own grave. Trade deals come with a promise to buy U.S. energy, but how realistic are those pledges and can the president deliver? Plus, a decline in maternal mental health and what research says could be to blame.

Aired: 08/04/25 | Expires: 09/04/25
