PBS News Hour full episode, July 9, 2025

Wednesday on the News Hour, we follow local groups in Texas supporting first responders as the search for the missing continues. In Gaza, an on-the-ground look at desperate efforts to find food in a barren landscape. Plus, Judy Woodruff reports on a group with a proven track record of overcoming political divides and distrust.

Correction: The segment on flooding in Texas misstated the name of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. We regret the error.
