PBS News Hour full episode, Aug. 29, 2024

Thursday on the News Hour, Trump and Harris campaign in critical swing states as the vice president sits down for her first major interview as the Democratic nominee. Israel agrees to pause fighting in Gaza to deliver polio vaccines while its operation targeting militants in the West Bank turns even more deadly. Plus, officials warn of a deadly mosquito-borne disease spreading in the Northeast.

Correction: In the Mdou Moctar segment, a graphic misspelled the name of bassist Mikey Coltun. We regret the error.
