Across the israelilebanese border are threatening to turn into allout war as bullet fired rockets deeper into israeli territory overnight and the israeli military continues to hit targets along that border, capping a dramatic week of major operations against their iranian backed foe. Its enough escalation the us concerned, they are urging all sides to step back from the break. Cnns Julia Benbrook, joining us now, live from the white House And Julia house, the administration approaching this diplomatic side will to start the u. S. Embassy in lebanon is urging americans to get out while commercial flights are still available, the us State Department issued a new Travel Advisory over the weekend again, thats a level four advisory. The highest that they issue and in it they said, quote, do not travel to lebanon due to crime, terrorism, civil unrest, kidnapping, unexploded landmines, and the risk of armed its conflict. It also said that those who remain in the area should be prepared to shelter in place if the situation worsens. This is all happening as president joe biden, inches of very important week when it comes to foreign relations here hes headed to the United Nations General Assembly in New York in just a few days. And when he arrived back at the White House this afternoon, took some questions from reporters. He reaffirmed that he is concerned about the growing tension james, in the Middle East i am we can wider war from breaking still pushing hard in a series of interviews earlier today, White House secure it national Security Council Spokesperson john kirby, he said that it is the White Houses view that Military Escalation does not help israeli prime Minister Benjamin im in Netanyahus Goal of returning to normalcy. He also spoke about how the u. S. Is not giving up on Hostage And Ceasefire negotiations tens, but acknowledges that Hamas Leader is a big obstacle when it comes to these talks. Just a few days ago biden was asked about these ongoing ceasefire talks, and i think is answered. Its a lot of insight as to how they see this going forward. He said quote, a lot of things dont look realistic until we get them done. We have to keep at it jessica. Alright. Julia benbrook for us, the latest reporting from the White House. Thank you for that. As well as second Ranking Commander now calling this a Battle Without Limits In a week with hundreds of Rocket Blast airstrikes and deadly exploding pagers and walkietalkies. Ben wedeman is joining us now, live from beirut ben, the question on so many peoples mind, where is this all headed . Well certainly weve seen this six days of rising tensions and it doesnt seem that theyre going to be going down. We were at the funeral hello, of Ibrahim Aqil that senior Hezbollah Commander who was killed last friday in the strike On Beirut to that killed him and more than a dozen other hezbollah militants as well as many simple billions, including women and children act that funeral. He said that hezbollah will continue to strike targets in northern israel, will prevent israelis from returning to their homes along the border. And he said that the strikes that took place overnight three individuals salvos that reached deep inside israel. He said that those were just the beginning of what he called a battle without limits and do weve also heard from the israeli side, prime Minister Benjamin netanyahu, saying that if hezbollah didnt get the message, i promise it will get the message. His chief of staff of the army, Herzi Halevi came out and said that israel will intensify its strikes on lebanon. Basically, what weve seen since last tuesday is every single day, has either seen a major event, if you can call it that like the pager explosions, like the Walkietalkie Explosion . Like Fridays Strike On Beirut, or for instance, the other days weve seen intense israeli strikes on southern lebanon. And of course, what we saw the early hours of this morning was his Butler Strikes on israel. So just every single day brings more and more evidence, had things are escalating dramatically. Of course, we heard that The Americans are doing what they can prevent a full scale war. But what weve seen so far since october is that us diplomacy really hasnt made much Progress Secretary of State Antony Blinken has made ten visits to the Middle East and has yet to been able to actually halt the fighting in any meaningful way and here In Beirut back in 1982, i remember President Reagan was able to stop the israelis from bombing during the siege of west beirut. And within three months, and what was a very bloody and destructive war this time around, it doesnt seem The Americans have the. Will or the ability or the willingness to use pressure on all sides to bring the war In Gaza to an end, which would have a knock on effect of bringing the hostilities on the border between Israel And Lebanon to an end as well. Jessica. All right. Ben wedeman for us In Beirut tonight. Thank you very much for that reporting. And lets bring in our next two guests, Cnn Global Affairs analyst Kim Dozier and Senior Editor for bloomberg, bobby ghosh. Its good to see both of you this afternoon can lets start first with you. There has been this backandforth between Hezbollah And Israel since hezbollah began Firing Rockets into israel in support of hamas following October 7 but this week we have seen this escalation in this whole situation is there a Point Of No Return . When it comes to all out war between these two entities there may be, were not there yet at this point. It is still pinpointed attacks for the most part by each side, the volleys going back and forth what holds israel back from an old Scale Invasion like it did in 2006 . Its troops are tired and going in on the ground would mean a labor intensive operation because these missiles, rockets that israel has been striking, israeli officials have briefed me that many of them are inside or near populated areas that means counterinsurgency going House To house, looking for hidden caches of weapons. On the hezbollah side, the reason i think theyre holding back is, first of all, theres the Communications Disarray caused by the Pager And Walkietalkie attacks that have been attributed to israel. Plus hezbollah has always intended to use those weapons. As an answer to israels attack on iran at some point in the future. If it starts hitting populated areas with those missiles, that would trigger out the trigger a Backandforth Conflagration that would force it to use rockets that iran hopes to use in another strategic concept context, if it gets threatened in the future and bobby, a top ranking hezbollah official, is now calling this a battle without limits. What do you think that might look like . And how will these extensive losses that weve seen in their leadership impact Hezbollahs Ability to fight. How might that all play out . Well as well as hoping that gravely agreeably sort of this it damages the infrastructure of war that hezbollah has its command, and its command. The targeting of their top Operations Leader and the leader of their Special Forces Ibrahim Aqil Ben Wedeman was just talking about his funeral. There. Thats a very, very significant kill from Israels Point of view he would have been crucial in any escalation of hostilities between the two sides. I wanted to add point to what kim was saying there, which is among israels many calculations. And one of the reasons why israel would not want this to escalate to the next level. And possibly help him. Is that hezbollah is a very different kind of enemy than hamas what weve seen over the past year with israels operations in against hamas In Gaza, has been poor the most part, a very onesided after October 7, after hamass initial attack on israel its been mostly onesided, hospitalized a very, very different creature. It is a it is closer army. It has Tens Of Thousands of fighters battleharden from previous battles with israel. And with a lot of experience of more recent fighting in places like syria has been has a far more threats i mean arsenal of weapons, Tens Of Thousands of rockets, hundreds, possibly thousands of iranian made missiles it is a much, much more potent force and a war between Israel And Hezbollah would look very different from the war between israel and hamas. It would be one in which ordinary israelis would feel the war in a much more real way than they have done. The war against hamas. And that has got to factor into the calculations. Both of the political leadership in israel, but also the military leadership. I think that is such important context that you point out and kim to that end we know President Biden has expressed concern. We just heard him saying it over the escalation. We know that the administration publicly continues to push for this diplomatic solution, but our analyst, barak ravid, whos at axios has also reported that some us officials have said that they understand this idea of israels, that they have to escalate to deescalate because its the strategy, but they acknowledged thats a very hard calibration. What do you think about all of that . Well, from the israeli Point Of View the time that they got the most hostages back was when they had invaded gaza and really had Gaza Militant had hamas militarily On The Run but, now were also in a situation where the biden administration also has to look like its not pushing too hard because whats happened in the past when they pushed hard Behind Closed Doors or made strident comments public. It hasnt changed the behavior of prime Minister Benjamin netanyahu and this close to the u. S. Election, when netanyahu is hoping for a Trump Presidency which. He believes would act in his favor. Hes not going to give the bidendministration the win of a ceasefire and the return of hostages. When he can can just keep this violence turning over thats a very calculated way to describe it. But when you hear from israelis, thats what they meant. He of them, especially some of the hostage families think is going on. That netanyahu is dragging out the violence. In one sense, because on the international stage hes hoping therell be a new person in the White House will be more favorable to him and bobby, we have to go, but ill give you a final a final thought on that topic as well. Well that clearly he is the calculation that bibi netanyahu has, that there will be a change of leadership. I am skeptical that that will make how much of a difference i dont think Donald Trump wants to come into office. Should that happen having to deal with the war in the Middle East, a war in which the united states will, whether it likes it or not youll get more and more involved. I think there have been some communications from the biden from the Trump Camp to a two biden. I better button to bibi netanyahu making that exact point. I dont Think Trump wants a war in the Middle East any more than biden does, that may maybe bibi netanyahus calculation but i think he may not have gotten that one properly calibrate. All right. Kim Dozier And Bobby ghosh. Our thanks to both of you new tonight, ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy has just arrived can the united states as part of a weeklong push for more support for its war against russia.

Have i got news for you saturday at nine On Cnn . A manhunt is underway after a Mass Shooting in birmingham, alabama. Police say at least four people were killed, at least 17 others injured. This happened late last Night And Fivepoint south, its a popular Entertainment Area there multiple gunmen are believed to be involved. Cnns Rafael Romo is live in birmingham, where were learning turning more details about how the shooting unfolded rafael, what are you hearing from officials there are several key details that officials have ive revealed so far today. First, Birmingham Police Chief Scott Thurmond says, several individuals showed up in a car shortly after 11 Lives Slide Gun out of the car, and open fire, leaving three people that here at the scene, those victims were two men and a woman. A fourth victim was pronounced dead later at the university of alabama hospital. Another key detail is that police believe that this was a targeted hit on one person and the other victims were caught in the crossfire. This is how Birmingham Police Chief Scott Furman explained it earlier today it will take a listen we believe the individual that was talking to his among the deceased we believe that there was a hit, if you will, on that particular person far as you know . Someone who is willing to pay money to have that person killed very violent year for the city of birmingham. A shooting at a nightclub in july left four people dead and ten others injured in february, 4 men were shot and killed outside a Public Library, a Birmingham Resident as this situation is very sad, not only for this area, but the Tyre City it was very devastating, very sad my heart just goes out to the family and friends that was injured or lost a loved one duty so trying to have a good time. This is very sad for the fire points area additional gunshot victims here in the area. Other victims arrived. The local hospitals on the role the university of alabama at Birmingham Hospital received 11 of the victims, including one of the people who died according to a spokesperson, the conditions of victims have not been released. Jessica, but police say at least hes the four victims have lifethreatening injuries. Now back to you. All right. Rafael romo for us there live in birmingham, alabama. Thank you so much for that and birmingham em as rafael mentioned, has seen multiple Mass Shootings this year, according to cnn affiliates, a shooting at a Night Club in the city in july left four people dead, ten injured. Four men were shot and killed outside of Public Library in february. The mayor of birmingham, Mayor Randall Woodfin joining me now, mayor, thanks so much for being here with us. I know this is this is sad and very heavy day for your city you have said that Gun Violence is quote, at an Epidemic Level in birmingham. How do you cure this epidemic . I think this requires support of federal partners and a change in laws at the State Level City of birmingham and all municipalities in the state of alabama dont have Home Rule so it takes partnership, collaboration, and down in the State House in montgomery to change laws that are striker and tougher to give Birmingham Police to tools to take shooters off the streets prior to an incident like this, i will say that my heart goes out to the victims that are deceased and for those victims who are who are alive, i do want to express that they recover well and were thinking about them, but our focus and our priority is literally on capturing the shooter or shooters who committed this heinous crime to make sure we can take them off the street. And at this point the shooter or shooters are still at large what more are you learning about this . Our reporting indicates and it came from officials there in birmingham that said one person was being targeted and one is one too many. But this is just incredible incredibly horrible Collateral Damage here its unacceptable. I think youre in a situation where you had these Assault Weapons that are being used im at a higher proportion, and addition to that, you have converged and glock switches that are used on the semiautomatics to make them automatically when you pull the trigger that you cant even handle the gun. All the bullets are released at one time. Were talking about a Crime Scene but unfortunately had over 100 shots in situations like this. There are preventable measures prior to if police are giving tools by State Law or federal law. You know, my position is a nonpartisan position i dont want to politicize a matter where life has been lost. And to many People Today have to wake up with a new normal where they dont have their loved ones. But i will say this does require a political shift at every level, it does require us to roll up our sleeves and make Commonsense Laws that actually saved lives when you, when youre partisan, you get to just pick a side and stay in your corner. But in my position has merit. We only want to solve not only this problem but prevent things like this from happening, not just in birmingham, but all over our country and i want to ask you about the weapons used in the shooting. You mentioned they were believed to have these conversion devices. Are these switches that allow the weapon to override the Trigger Mechanism on a gun. So it essentially functions as a Machine Gun you mentioned over 100 casings. I know the u. S. Attorneys office in birmingham announced an initiative cracking down on those illegal devices in july. Youre talking about political will to change laws what more are you hearing about people being willing to take steps to ensure the safety of people in Birmingham Alabama listen, i want to i want to thank the u. S. Attorney. I want to thank our federal partners atf fbi, not only for assisting in this crime, thats an open active investigation, but other crimes weve had where there have been Mass Shootings and i want to make this very, very clear related to these conversions. It is federally outlaw. They are illegal federally, but not at the state level. What are the exact same time where the federal government have outlawed them. They also decrease Atf Budget Atf is the agency we need to investigate. Those who are making these conversion devices, who are selling these conversion devices. But itd be stripped their budget you tie their hands behind their back and prevent them from taking these types of devices off the streets that are in peoples hands, who only want to hurt and kill people all right. Mayor randall woodfin. Thank you so much for your time and we certainly send our thoughts to so many in your community who are hurting today. Thank you so much.

Cnns Julia Benbrook is joining us now from the White House. Julia, this news just coming in. What are you learning . Well in a letter to his members, House Speaker Mike Johnson outlined his plan to avoid a Government Shutdown with that September 30 deadline, quickly approaching, and he says that this is going to to be a very narrow barebones cr, including only the extensions that are absolutely necessary. While this is not the solution, any of us prefer. It is the most prudent path forward under the present circumstances. His plan funds the government with a limited continuing resolution through december 20. Now johnson is leading with a very slim majority and he has tried to fix this Funding Proble over the last week, bringing other versions to the floor. But after some members of his own party pushed back against it, he was really having trouble getting something over the finish line. We are hearing some hope from the other side as Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is responding. He says that the democrats will evaluate the plan when they return to washington, but added congress is now on a partisan path to avoid a Government Shutdown. And that would hurt every day, americans. This still has a lot of hurdles to go through before it makes it here to the president s desk as far as some of the specifics that are added into this bill, we do know that there is going to be some additional funding for the secret but service that has been a really big topic on Capitol Hill following those two apparent Assassination Attempts against former president Donald Trump, jessica. Alright, Julia Benbrook with the Breaking News boris, thank you so much and joining us to discuss the latest on this Budget Proposal is the Ranking Member on the House Budget Committee, Congressman Brendan Boyle from pennsylvania. Congressman, thanks so much for being here with us today. We appreciate it. Yeah. Happy to be with you. It is timely to have you on because we are getting this Breaking News that the House Speaker has put out what appears to be a pretty clean cr im curious what your responses welcome it. Obviously as the house democratic leader, Hakeem Jeffries said in his statement, will have to review it to make sure it really is a clean cr but if it is as advertised, it is a positive step forward to solving this problem in a bipartisan way. And im glad to see that the republicans speaker after first really wasting the last several months attempting to do a republican only bill that ultimately failed by 20 votes on the floor this past week he is now actually reached out to us so we can do a continuing resolution in a clean way. And then finally come up with what we always knew was going to happen at The End of this process. And that is a bipartisan compromise. When you have a republican house a democratic senate, and a democratic president i was going to say divided government usually leads, means it has to end in some sort of compromise to get where you want to go. And oftentimes you well know these fights, it isnt just the additional funding. Theres other things that are added in and you were just alluding to this in this case . Republicans and the House Speaker wanted to include something which was called the Save Act that would have required proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections worth noting, its already illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections. So now weve arrived at this place where as youre saying and it appears to us as well that it is just a clean cr if it is indeed that do you think Thats Something you can support and that this could move forward pretty quickly yeah, i am very confident that if its a clean cr, you would see a Big Bipartisan Democratic vote once again, however, though, i think Speaker Johnson will have problems on his own side, both from former President Trump, who has openly said he wants a Government Shutdown as well as the typical hardliners within the house. Republican conference or always a no no matter what the issue is. But house democrats, im confident are willing to stand up for the american people and make sure that we dont have a completely unnecessary and costly Government Shutdown all right. I also want to talk to you a little bit about the Commonwealth Of Pennsylvania where you live and reside once again, likely to be the center of the political universe in this president ial election. Back in 2020, it took four days to count the votes and declared the winner. Of course, in that race, it was President Biden. Do you anticipate its going to take or could potentially take days again to count the votes so first i have to say is that as a proud pennsylvania and we enjoy our moment in the spotlight every four years is the biggest battleground state. But i do also want to make sure the american people understand the reason why it took four days to count our ballots last time is not because were slow counters in pennsylvania it is because the republican controlled legislature actually does something in this state that doesnt happen in most other states. And that is there is a prohibition against the State Election Board from being able to count the early ballots that they receive. That is not the way the law is in some 43 other states. So the fact that it wasnt until 7 00 a. M. On Election Day that the 67 various Election County offices could even begin the process. Combined, of course, with the fact we were in the middle of the most deadly pandemic in a century, which caused so many people myself included, to vote absentee or by mail for the first time ever. Now, looking forward to this November 5 i am hopeful that it will not take the four days that i took last time, in part because you will have fewer people voting by mail however, if this is another incredibly close election, and the margin comes down to just 10,000 votes are fewer than there could be a delay which pushes us into the day after the election yeah, it absolutely could be. So we will all have to see how that happens. But you make a good point, Point Pointing out what is, what is specific to pennsylvania, which is they Cant Start counting those ballots until until the morning of alright. Congressman brendan boyle, thanks so much. Appreciate it thank you and we are following more Breaking News involving North Carolinas embattled republican gubernatorial Candidate Mark Robinson.

And of course, former President Trump was there in North Carolina at a rally yesterday. He did not mention the Lieutenant Governor by name. He did previously endorse him but its worth noting, andrew. Again, just just highlighted the fact these arent just various members of his staff. These are the top members of a Campaign Staff that are choosing to quit thats right. This is his Campaign Manager and deputy Campaign Manager. Ive been covering politics for nationally 12, 13 years now, and ive never seen an entire Campaign Staff just quit in this manner. Obviously, the next question is going to be as what happens to the right . Province in campaign. He did cancel those events last week ahead of our story, he did appear to event this weekend, but i mean, where this story goes from here, were obviously going to continue to follow this, right . And of course, you have, you broke this story. I am curious for our viewers to remind them. I know you all did reach out for comment on this. What have you heard . If anything, from Mark Robinson himself while we interviewed robinson ahead of our story on thursday, we reached out to that campaign ahead of our story on tuesday, we gave them the deadline of thursday at 10 00 a. M. Around that time, we got we focus his campaign and ask if we could push it back so we could talk to robinson and we interviewed him and that influx at our story. And during that interview, he he vehemently denied that this account that we found where he made those comments on that form forum, including calling himself a quote, Black Nazi and saying that he was keeping on women in public showers as a teen and a whole lot of other comments that some of which we cant even say on air, he defended himself. He said, this wasnt him. We ran through all of the evidence in that Interview And Robinson is still really denying thats him in face of that overwhelming evidence that cnn found. All right. Andrew, stay with us. I do want to bring in republican strategist and former Communications Director for the rnc, doug heye. Doug also a nord of native north carolinians. So i know you follow a know North Carolina politics. So well, just your initial reaction to what were learning right now about all of the top staff leaving Mark Robinsons campaign so two things. One, not a huge surprise and to not really impactful. And i say that jessica, because the Mark Robinson for Governor Campaign is over it probably was over before the revelations that andrew put out late last week, but it is now officially officially over. Josh stein will be the next governor from North Carolina. The question and what makes this significant then is how does this impact Donald Trump and his campaign . And how does it affect those Campaigns Downballot as well . And i can tell you the night that the story came out that andrew and his team wrote i got a Text Message from somebody whos running statewide and it said i think im toast. And thats the problem for everybody. He was running statewide and even in some of these some other races, weve targeted congressional seat in North Carolina one for instance, the robinson effect. There could be big, Donald Trump didnt mention him because he wants no part of Mark Robinson right now. That also is significant, but the idea that Mark Robinson is ever going to be the governor of North Carolina is over it is interesting because the way this statement is framed is he says that he will be announcing new incoming staff members coming soon he said he remains in a strong position to make the case to voters. And win on November 5. But doug, i hear you when you look at just the pulling even before this all came out, it was going to be a tough race for him. And now to your point, were here yeah. Look, he didnt have to be blunt about it, jessica, he didnt have the 18 before this, and now were talking about the qrs teams of anybody who might want to join his campaign. He also doesnt have a lot of money, which means watching the North Carolina football debacle yesterday, there were a lot of Tv Ad that i saw for Kamala Harris for Donald Trump for josh stein, didnt see any Mark Robinson ads. He doesnt have the money to go On The Air. So how hes going to make that case really doesnt exist at that at this point. And its all really about those people who are going to decide the election, the 440,000 new unaffiliated voters whove moved in North Carolina, registered unaffiliated since 2020, theyre going to decide the president ial election. The Governors Election is already done. Yeah and so one theory of the case i heard yesterday was, look does something like this in a state where the president ial is, theres a huge lopsided one way or the other. Does it make it does it does it close the gap enough for the other person . Maybe not, but in a place like North Carolina where we can continue we need to see this polling that is so unbelievably close and it is going to likely be won on the margins that this is something that could drive just enough in the margins. What do you think of that that fear has been there for a long time. Ive heard this from republicans for weeks and months that robinson could be a drag on Donald Trump. And we typically dont see that happen, what we call reverse coattails usually never happens. But when you have a statewide candidate who doesnt have money to go On The Air or to have a real robust turnout operation. And it was also causing serious distractions for the top of the ticket. Then you cant completely dismiss it. Dismissed that. Thats a possibility you want in a campaign, you want to have all your Boats Rowing in the same direction. And one of them is absolutely stalled all right. Andrew kaczynski, doug heye, our thanks to both of you. Stay with us and of course, were going to continue to stay on this Breaking News.

And our own commissioner at Thomas Donlon says, federal agents searched his homes and took items that are not related to his work with nypd. Hes now the latest official in mayor, Eric Adams circled to be the subject of a federal raid. And cnns Gloria Pazmino is following this. Gloria, tell us more well, jessica, it remains unclear to us why federal authorities took to remarkable step of a searching their homes of commissioner Tom Donlon, but we do know from our Law Enforcement sources that the warren was specifically about documents that donlon might have held on to from his time working at the fbi were also im told that this latest a Search Warrant is not related to any of the four other investigations happening involving mayor Eric Adams and senior members of his administration. We do have a statement from the commissioner who responded to this last night saying in part that federal authorities had come into his home, took materials that came into my possession approximately 20 years ago and are unrelated to my work with the new York Police department. This is not a department matter, and the department will not be commenting now its important to note, jessica, that Tom Donlon has had a long career in Law Enforcement, specifically with the fbi. So the question here is whether he has some documents from that time that the fbi is looking to get back. Whats not clear to us as why this is happening now . Or if the fbi initially asked him to turn over the documents, he will certainly be looking to have to answer that question over the next several days. And although this is not related to those other investigations, it is certainly something that mayor Eric Adams is going to have to answer about in the next coming days. As these investigations continue to unfold and well wait to see if there will be a resolution from these federal probes jessica. Yeah, just so many questions here. All right. Gloria pazmino.
