JOHN YANG: Good evening.

I'm John Yang.

There were more deadly Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon and northern Gaza today as the world waits to see what the close relationship between President-elect Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu means for Middle east peace.

In Lebanon, at least 23 people are dead, including children, after Israel hit a village north of Beirut far from known Hezbollah operation centers.

Later, Israel's new defense minister declared that his country had defeated Hezbollah.

And in northern Gaza, at least 17 people are dead following a strike in Jabalya.

Health officials say a home sheltering displaced people was hit.

The IDF says it was targeting Hamas militant sites.

In a call two days after the election, President-elect Trump urged Russian President Vladimir Putin not to escalate the war in Ukraine.

That's a according to the Washington Post.

Today, Russia and Ukraine traded drone attacks.

Ukraine launched a major barrage on the Moscow suburbs.

And in the Ukrainian city of Odessa, officials said Russia launched a record 145 drones.

There was a magnitude 6.8 earthquake this morning in the Caribbean Sea off southern Cuba.

It comes just days after a late season hurricane pummeled the island once again, knocking its power grid offline.

So far, no injuries have been reported.

President-elect Trump has been declared the winner in Arizona.

That's the final state to be called.

He has more than 52 percent of the vote there.

When President Biden won it in 2020, it was the first time it was in the Democratic column since 1996.

Meanwhile, control of the House is still undecided, with 19 races still to be called.

Republicans are just five seats away from the 218 needed for a majority.

And Judith Jamison has died.

The internationally acclaimed dancer became artistic director of the Alvin Ailey Dance Company.

Jamison began studying ballet at a young age.

She was spotted by the legendary Agnes DeMille in the early 1960s, a time when there were virtually no opportunities for black ballerinas.

In 2010, Jamison told PBS NewsHour she never let opportunity pass her by.

JUDITH JAMISON: So when the curtain goes up, you go for it with excellence, with confidence.

I mean, the curtain goes up on your life every day.

You open your eyes and your curtain's up.

JOHN YANG: Judith Jamison was 81 years old.

And from the ballet studio to the fast track, NASCAR great Bobby Allison has died.

He won the Daytona 500 three times, was the 1983 NASCAR champion and is in the NASCAR hall of Fame.

Bobby Allison was 86 years old.

Still to come on PBS News, what Mr. Trump's win could mean for military members and veterans, and a Massachusetts studio that showcases artists with disabilities.
