We begin with Breaking News in New Zealand where there has been a Terrorist Attack at a Shopping Center in a residential neighborhood of auckland. Six are wounded, some in critical Condition And Police killed the knifewielding attacker. And the prime Minister Arden said that he was under surveillance by police. For more, im joined by Ivan Watson in hong kong. Horrific attack though it sounds as though it could have been a lot worse if police had not been so close to respond. Con reporter and if he was armed with a firearm. In this case the attack took place after 2 00 p. M. Local time in this supermarket. And we have i willmages that we filmed by eyewitnesses where you can hear the fear in their voices as they kind of in some cases are running out of the supermarket, in other cases are inside in Disbelief Hearing that there appears to be a man with a Knife Stabbing people inside the supermarket. As you mentioned, six people wounded, three in critical condition. And the authorities have since revealed that the attacker actually bought the knife in the supermarket that was then used as j as arden described it for violence. And it only took about 60 seconds by the police who were tasked with monitoring this individual who had been described by New Zealands Prime Minister as a known threat, who had been labeled and identified as a national Security Threat as early as 2016 and under constant surveillance. And again, it is that Monitoring Team that shot and killed the individual who has been identified as sir lankan national who moved to New Zealand in 2011 and who was a supporter of the extremist movement isis. The New ZealandPrime Minister went on to say that the authorities have done everything within the laws of New Zealand to try to protect this individual but he could not be arrested for simply supporting in words the beliefs of isis. Take a listen. What i can say is that we have utilized every legal and Surveillance Power available to us to try to keep People Safe from this individual. Many agencies and people were involved and all motivated by the same thing, trying to keep People Safe. Reporter but really what is incredible about this case is that the suspect, Gentleman S Arden said she personally knew about his case. And even the newspaper had written about this personsleman said she personally knew about his case. And even the newspaper had written about this persons case. And despite the amount of attention at the highest levels of government, despite the undercover police that were following the individual, still able to carry out terrifying acts of violence before him brought to heel by law enforcement. Yes, unbelievable. Thanks so much. And countless were saved by the deluge in the united states. The nypd made over 400 rescues including 69 high Water Rescues. Eight tornadoes were reported across the northeast including one that destroyed or damaged about two dozen homes in southern New Jersey. Even when the water finally recedes, the trauma for the victims will be lasting. New Yorks Governor said New Yorkers have never experienced anything like this. It has been a hard day for New Yorkers to not just deal with the weather but to wake up and know that we lost some of our fellow citizens simply because they werent able to get out of their car or home. So it is really heartbreaking day here in the city of New York. U. S. President biden is expected to visit louisiana later today where Ida Made Landfall less than a week ago. He said the government has been mobilized to do everything it can to help all of idas victims as quickly as possible. There is a lot of damage and i made clear to the governors that my team at the federal emergency management agency, fema, is on the ground and ready to provide all the assistance that is needed. For the latest, here is jason carroll. Reporter historic flooding pummelling the northeast and the race now to rescue people from their homes. Were still uncovering the true depth of the loss. The human loss, which is hard to imagine. Reporter officials say they have responded to at least 500 Emergency Calls in just one philadelphia county. We are still seeing ongoing flooding in the Southeast Portion of the state, some which is surpassing Record Flood levels and there are rescues ongoing. Reporter Flood Gauges show the Schuylkill River rose more than 12 feet in eight hours. Just because the rain has stopped doesnt mean the water stops flowing. Reporter and in boundbrook New Jersey, waters are still high enough to completely cover Train Tracks and to flood this stadium. Parts of New York are still under water, a major highway in the bronx now a parking lot. And here in meramec, New York, the cleanup getting under way, the Bakery Owners lost everything. How high was the water . At least 6 feet. Almost 6 feet. You see where that line is . That is where the water went up to. Reporter it all started Wednesday Night the national Weather Service issuing a Flash Flood Emergency in new York City for the first time ever. Report was 3 to 6 inches over the course of the whole days which was not a problematic amount. That turned into the biggest single hour of rainfall in new York City history with almost no warning. Reporter but its intensity took many by surprise. The Citys Infrastructure was unprepared, dozens of people were stuck on City Buses and in subway stations. A lot of people struggled, yeah, oh, my god, ive been down here from 11 30 something. Reporter and the mta reporting 46 stations were inundated with water. Officials admitting the system was not designed for this type of Record Rainfall. Anything over 2 inches an hour, well have trouble with. Reporter late Thursday People gathered around the house that you see behind me, that is the place where two people lost their lives, they were down in the basement, they were trapped by the floodwaters and could not get out. Their names will be added to the names of all of those who died during the storm. Jason carroll reporting there from New York. And as we mentioned, ida spun off many tornadoes. And this one in southern New Jersey, a powerful ef3 leveled or damaged about two dozen homes. More from paula newton. Reporter people are still trying to come to terms with the swathe of destruction through the state of New Jersey. You know, they had that incredible flooding towards the northern part of the state. But here we are in southern New Jersey about a 45 Minute Drive from philadelphia, two Hour Drive from new York City and a tornado touched down in this neighborhood. I want you to have a look at the catastrophic damage. People had so little time to get to safety and when they emerged from their basements, this is what they saw. They are saying about eight confirmed tornadoes so far in the northeast. Incredible right now, but in this neighborhood, No One died even though they are saying that in the state of New Jersey so far, 23 people have lost their lives. And people in this neighborhood know how lucky they are, i want you to listen now to Mike Castle who described what happened in just a few minutes. I was up in the shower and we got the Towardrnado Alert Warni and my wife said you got to get out and it wasnt three minutes later that all my back windows exploded and it sounded like a Freight Train ran through my living room. Reporter so hard to come to terms with, but people know that they are lucky given the destruction. I want you to have a look at the rubble they have already been cleaning up today. And these are the remnants of what were their dream homes. These homes are not old and this was a pristine neighborhood. And now people trying to pick up the pieces. And really asking a significant question, Given Climate Change and given everything that they have seen going on, saying this is not tornado alley, this is New Jersey, a place where t tornadoes rarely strike, they are wondering if they should rebuild or move on to a place that perhaps is a little bit more protected. Paula newton, cnn, New Jersey. For more on Idas Path of destruction, Derek Van Dam is joining me now. I watched as you were on location for cnn as you were battered by ida down south, but we had no idea that it would week such destruction up north. Yeah, the effects are just so long standing going from the gulf all the way to New England. This of course is the remnants of tornadoes that just really put their mark on New Jersey. There were eight confirmed tornadoes that took place and this was all associated with the remnants of ida which as kim just said i was riding out in southern louisiana. So couldnt even catch up to the storm. It wasnt just the tornadoes that were the problem, the Storm Surge and the South Coast and into the Gulf Coast i should say, but also the extreme amounts of rain that took place across New England and some of the major metropolitan areas. We had over 20 daily Record Rainfall totals just on September 1 alone. So we havare seeing the Climate Crisis seeing it unfold. Heatwave last month and now the remnants of ida and of course the 00 ongoing drought and the Caldor Fire that threatens portions of south lake tahoe. So what is happening here . Well, we are warming. We know that. One degree sells us above the preindustrial averages is allowing for atmospheric water vapor, so basically the earth to produce more heavy rain events, that is taking place. And it unfolded before our eyes in Central Park this week, 80 millimeters of rain in a one hour period, that is a record for new York City and guess what, last time that record was broken, just two weeks ago. You see the trend im talking about. The oceans are also warming as our planet warms and it absorbs the majority of that heat, that provides the fuel necessary for stronger hurricanes. Take it from me, riding out the storm in southern louisiana, we felt the direct impacts from an eyewall for five hours. That is winds in excess of 140 miles per hour. And that will become more likely going forward in time with our Warming Planet and our warming oceans. This has impacts on the Wildfire Season as well, it is extended later and starting earlier as well. Of course the number of acres being burned is also increasing on average, you can see that according to this graph showing the increase in large active wildfires over the western u. S. So much to cover here, but were starting to draw that connection to climate change. Absolutely. All right, thanks so much. In pennsylvania, at least four people are dead after flooding caused by the storm. Officials estimate they have responded to thousands of Water Rescue calls across the state. Pete muntean is in philadelphia where experts call the flooding historic. Reporter conditions are improving here although we are not out of woods yet. This is the most dramatic scene of the day, this is interstate 676, the vine street expressway, straight through the center of philadelphia. And it connects Interstate 76 on the west to the Ben Franklin Bridge in camden, New Jersey in the east and this has been very flooded, the water is very high. You can see the water, it was up to the 21st Street Overpass there, it has receded a little bit now about halfway to the bottom of the road there. This is just one scene here in philadelphia. The Schuylkill River crested about 17 feet early on thursday morning. It has receded some and will go below Flood Stage after midnight. That means that the Flood Warning here in philadelphia will stay in place until 7 00 a. M. On friday. Hundreds of water recent could you rescues in montgomery county. The town of bridgeport had at least one person die in a Water Rescue there. Beyond the mortal toll of the storm, a Big Monetary Storm maybe in the tens or hundreds of millions but no official estimates yet. Pete muntean, cnn, philadelphia. Before flooding the northeastern u. S. , Hurricane Ida hammered louisiana causing catastrophic damage to the states power grid. Even now days later, almost A Million homes and businesses still have no electricity including virtually all of New Orleans. Brian todd reports on what has been a very slow recovery from Hurricane Ida. Reporter grand isle louisiana, almost unrecognizable. You cannot go to grand isle by land or boat. The island is uninhabitable, there is sand across the entire island, 10 to 12 breaks, 100 of the structures damaged, 40 were destroyed. Reporter Plaquemines Parish under water. From officials surveying damage struggling to clear roadways and keep Water Systems going, the message is clear. We encourage any resident that evacuated to remain there and stay there at this present time because we do not have the resources to help you. Reporter power crews from all over the country grinding through neighborhoods, Street By street, Power Company supervisors told us off camera that it is an enormous task. One foreman in the east area where some power has been restored told us to move back as his team replaced a pole because it was too dangerous. When i asked him how long it would take to replace the Pole I Cant give you a solid answer, man, i aint got that magic wand. How tough it is . Im wringing wet, 16 hours a day, last five days straight. Its what we do, bud. Reporter and when they find a down pole, it is not just a matter of propping it up. Here is an example of how complicated it is just to restore power. A supervisor told us what these guys are doing is a procedure called a locate. They have to try to locate a Power Line but also locate water, Gas And Fiber lines that may be down there so that they dont interfere with them. So they are using manual what they call slap sticks, these are post hole diggers with long handles just to try to find those lines so they dont interfere with them so that they can get this pole back up and running. Residents of New Orleans east tell us it has been tough without power. I threw away maybe like 500 worth of food, had to go to mississippi to get ice. And groceries and gas. Reporter Larry Jackson took it upon himself to flag down a Power Company scout coming down his street in a Pickup Truck and offered some incentive before. I told him hey, look, ill buy you some fish if you get my pole straight. Reporter and cars lined up for miles in search of food and water. The search for gas still a struggle. We just have not received a Yacht Fueling Services to the general public. Reporter there is slow progress. Power has been restored to at least ten hospitals and several Sewage Treatment plants thanks to repairing of generators that they used. But for hundreds of thousands, it is simply not moving fast enough. Brian todd, cnn, louisiana. In northern california, some Ski Resorts are helping the fight against the Caldor Fire. Lake Tahoe Resorts are using Snow Making Machines to protect themselves and the surrounding areas from the nearby flames. The Caldor Fire has burned through more than 210,000 acres in three weeks, thousands have been forced to evacuate as the Flames Head towards nevada. It is only 25 contained. From raging wildfires on the West Coast to historic flooding on the east coast, the u. S. Is battling extreme weather events fueled by climate change. Democratic lawmakers are sounding the alarm and calling for action. President biden is among them and he is calling on congress to pass legislation to prepare the Nations Infrastructure for the changing climate. Past few days of Hurricane Ida and wildfires in the west and unprecedented Flash Floods in New York and New Jersey is yet another reminder that these extreme storms in the Climate Crisis are here. We need to be much better prepared. We need to act. Global warming is upon us. When you get two Record Rainfalls in a week, it is not just coincidence. When you get all the changes that we have seen in weather, that is not a coincidence. Global warming is upon us and it will get worse and worse and worse unless we do something about it. What were seeing now are cataclysmic rain events, recordshattering where we have unprecedented amounts of water coming out of the heavens all at once. Literally from 8 51 to 9 51 p.

Soft Music hello, Colonial Penn . President biden is vowing to fight a supreme Court Decision that effectively bans abortions in texas. The law outlaws abortions after just six weeks of pregnancy before most women even know that they are pregnant. The conservative justices denied a request to stop the law. President biden said the Supreme Courts ruling overnight is an unprecedented assault on a womans constitutional rights under roe v. Wade which has been the Law Of The Land for almost 50 years. It unleashes unconstitutional chaos and empowers Self Anointed Enforcers to have devastating impacts. With more on what President Biden can and cant do about it, here is jeff zeleny. Reporter President Biden sharply criticized the Texas Law as well as the supreme Court Decision, he said it will unclear constitutional chaos and it does not hold up to what is widely believed by people on both sides of the aisle, certainly democrats, as settled law for roe vs. Wade. But he did call for what he called a whole of Government Approach to see what the government can indeed do if anything about this. Calling for the Department Of Human Services as well as the Justice Department to look into the legality of this. The attorney general Merrick Garland also said that his department was looking into what they can do to uphold the womens right to choose. This is something that the White House really is limited in what they can do. The Senate And House certainly there is not overwhelming support particularly in the senate to codify roe vs. Wade into law. So this is something that the White House is quite frankly limited to do and the president is being pushed by progressives and democrats to expand the Supreme Court, to support a plan to add more justices. Of course liberal justices in their view, to the Supreme Court. Hes never been a fan of that, but there is a commission studying if that would work. The Bottom Line is that is not going to happen. So this is something that really is a consequence of the election. The Supreme Court is based on the trump justices that make up the Supreme Court right now. So this is something that President Biden, yes, is concerned about but, frankly, can do little about it at least in the short term. U. S. Democratic Senator Joe Manchin is calling for a pause in his partys push to pass a massive 3. 5 trillion Spending Bill which is a major piece of President Bidens agenda. Manchin is a key figure in the senate where all 50 democrats must work together for the legislation to pass. The moderate democrat has long been skeptical of the staggering Price Tag and says more time is needed to assess the trajectory of the pandemic. Democrats had planned to having a vote by The End of the month.

Welcome back to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada and around the world. Im kim brunhuber. Lets retap our top story. Six people wounded, some in critical condition on a Terrorist Attack at a Shopping Mall in New Zealand. [ bleep ]. Go inside. Someone here with a knife. Someone here with a knife. Panicked shoppers fled when a Knifewielding Man went on a rampage in auckland. This video was posted online partially blurred and censored as you can see. At a News Conference prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the attacker was a sir Lankan National Under Surveillance by police and called him a terrorist. U. S. Air Force Commander who oversaw the last flights out of afghanistan is giving cnn an inside look at those tense final hours. As or Ren Leasieberman reports, was a dangerous final mission. Reporter the approach in and out of kabul allowed little margin for error. Mountains survive the airport and the valleys prone to bad weather. Thousands of afghans on the field and thousands more desperately trying to get in. Nearby, a Terror Threat from isisk. In this environment, Lieutenant Colonel had a mission, end of the u. S. Withdrawal from afghanistan. What the operators do is focus on the mission, on your individual tasks, you focus on success and you focus on doing your part of the mission as well as you possibly can. Reporter pelbath was the Mission Commander of the final five flights out of kabul. He snapped this picture and in the background the cars and package and hangars about to be left behind. I graduated the Air Force academy in 2001 and then September 11th happened. So my entire career has been spent with a conflict in afghanistan and to see it come to an end, that does make a mark i think. Reporter pelbath new time was precious and with the final troops loading up, the danger at its peak. Commander donahue was the last soldier to step off afghan soil. Pelbath later snap this had own picture of Hoins Flight and then gave the order clam shell, close the cargo doors. Minutes later, flush the Force Respect the order to take off. He was able to see in front of me the first aircraft had just made their left turn, the second Aircraft Right behind me, third had just lifted off, fourth on the runway. I had the entire picture of the C17 Force in front of me, for sure an image that i will never forget. Reporter the five c 17s had been on the ground a total of three hours. End of a 20 Year War was his final flight. Part of what made this so special for Lieutenant Colonel pelbath is that his own grandparents with are on a u. S. Evacuation flight, they had fled to Neighboring Austria in 1957 and removed from the military as part of Operation Safe Haven and so this was very personal for pelbath. And i asked him if he had any thoughts and he said this is not just the credit of one person or any individual. It was all of the 80 or so crew members on board those five flights who made the final Evacuation And Withdrawal happen and made it happen safely. Oren liebermann, cnn, at the pen pentagon. Now the world is waiting for the taliban to announce the formation of a new government in afghanistan. Cnns international diplomatic editor Nic Robertson is live in islamabad. So hard to know exactly what to expect in terms of this new taliban government, certainly the taliban have made plenty of promises, but what are you H Hearing . Reporter yes, first big diplomatic test for the taliban 100 because this is the moment where, you know, they have said a lot of things about how they will give women education, how they will have for example nontaliban members in the government to sort of give a message to the people of afghanistan that they will be inclusive, inclusive of different ethnic groups, inclusive of less conservative views. That is why everyone is watching this moment so carefully. But i think the sort of Ground Reality is the picture that begins to emerge is the taliban are going to have all the senior and important positions and the question is who do they include as the nontaliban member or members and what Role And Relevance do they give that person. I think that we can expect, you know, the security, defense, internal security, education, religious institutions, all Those Sorts Of Dtoday Die Menti fall directly on the taliban. And there is one name that is floating up the list as possible members of this new government. And he is a former Prime Minister in afghanistan, very conservative in his views. More closely aligned to the taliban per se than people like Abdullah Abdullah or karzai. But undoubtedly this will be the moment the community gets insight into whether they will be inclusive and i dont think that anyone is expecting a woman to get a senior position in government. But waiting and watching. And one of the questions that the government will have to deal with is how they will administer the airport, who are they going to allow to leave. Our focus generally has been all those people escaping by air via kabul, but so many others have been trying to escape by Land To pakistan. And you have looked at the exodus of The Border. Tell us what you saw. Reporter yeah is this is a message if you will about The Border that the pakistani government is communicating to all visiting diplomats. Foreign secretary is here today, C DutchForeign Minister and german Foreign Minister earlier also. And so pakistan could be on a large number of refugees if the situation teedeteriorates. So the message is look at what they do but engage with them. Cnn has had the opportunity to talk with some of those people who are fleeing afghanistan and get a look at the situation. As they set foot on new soil after countless hours of travel, many of the more than 150,000 evacuated afghan refugees relieved to be free from fear of life under taliban control. This 14yearold former translator now in south korea. People do not believe them, we do not believe their promise. They are opposite of humanity and especially for the women, for the girls. They are not happy. Reporter whether in south korea, the u. S. , spain, mexico, france, qatar or many of the other Hundred Plus countries that have vowed to take them in, their new lives and dreams begin now. We came here and we want to live for long time in peace and our children should have a good education here. And a peaceful situation. Reporter and at The Border with pakistan, those not lucky enough to get the Evac Flight Struggle to leave. But all fearing the taliban but looking for survival. Translator previously during such change a lot of looting had happened. So for that reason people are scared, people are running away. Myself, ive come here with a patient for medical treatment. Reporter and some coming for that most basic need. Economic certainty. Escaping drought and unemployment. Translator we are 150 families, it was tough for us to cross The Border. We were very oppressed and many families are stranded there. We were unemployed and hungry. We migrated here because of poverty. And we need help because we dont have tents and food. We have nothing. Have mercy on us. Reporter there was no work here. No jobs. We fled to back stand in disarray, were requesting the pakistani government to help us because were refugees. Look at these kids. They have nowhere to go. Reporter so for now, Pakistans Message to those would did not be refugees is dont come if you dont have the correct paperwork. And the reason is quite simply over the yearsdid not be refuge dont come if you dont have the correct paperwork. And the reason is quite simply over the years they have hosted millions of refugees and they are worried about the potential of what could happen now that the trickle that is coming to The Border at the moment could turn into a flood and they dont feel that they have the capacity to handle that many refugees again going forward. And that is why this meeting with british Foreign Secretary and other meetings of pakistani officials is so important because i think that there is a real recognition that the western countries are not particularly going to like what they see when the taliban announce their new government, they perhaps wont feel as inclusive as they would like. But that importance to engage and engage economically because otherwise this trickle of refugees really could turn into something much bigger. Interesting.

Florida School Districts are now free to require students to wear masks. The order was signed yesterday. The judge said Governor Desantis doesnt have the authority for a blanket ban. Desantis threatened to cut funding to officials who defy his order. A Growing Number of Florida School districts have issued Mask Mandates as covid Cases Surge in the state. And florida is just one example of the fierce debate over Mask Mandates. Heated arguments are now turning into all out brawls and School Officials are resigning across the country. Tom forehand reports. Reporter Back To School has become a Battle Cry in the covid wars everywhere. With the School Board in oregon firing the local superintendent amid anger and tears. Officials are not saying why, but the move came shortly after the super said classes would comply with this order from the governor. Moving forward for the immediate future, masks will be required in all indoor public settings. Shame on you reporter School BoardMeetings Coast to coast are erupting, some already in uproars over critical Race Theory and transgender rights. I am disgusted by your bigotry and your depravity. Reporter but now the fight is over vaccinations and masks. Never mind that polls show most americans broadly support the idea of masking in schools. Teachers and health officials are being attacked for even trying to enforce such safety measures. In florida, a man opposed to masking was arrested after authorities say that he physically clashed with a student. Public meetings there have filled with rage. These are demonic entities and all the School Boards of all the united states of america and All Of Us christians will be sticking together to take them all out. All the Police Officers that take us out for our first Amendment Right will also be going down with them. Do you understand . Reporter in pennsylvania, a School Board member resigned saying that he had received Death Threats from the warring factions. While in wisconsin, three Board Members stepped down saying that the job of tending to Serious School Matters was becoming toxic and impossible to do. We didnt get to pointed fisticuffs. But was there is a lot of shouts and disrespectful behavior . Yes. That did occur. Reporter and on it goes from maine to michigan, kansas to california, arizona to alaska, kids are gettingup close lesson of antisocial studies. Ive told the schools that my children wont be wearing masks. Reporter amid wildly differing views over what it means to be a good american. Make no mistake, while there have been some protests in favor of masks, headlines show most of these clashes are being driven by people who are antimask, people think that their version of freedom counts more than these proven measures to protect the public health and even the health of their own children. Tom foreman, cnn, washington. Experts say that three covid doses will likely be needed for full protection. Recently two israeli based studies show a decrease in infections in people who got a third or booster shot, both Moderna And Pfizer have applied for authorization for a third dose from the u. S. Food and drug st administration. Dr. Fauci says it makes sense. From my own experience as an immunologist, i would not at all be surprised that the adequate full regimen for vaccination will likely be three doses. It is entirely understandable why the results that ive just reported from the israeli boosters are so dramatic. And we all hope and i believe that we have good reason to believe that that only will not be a strong response but that it will actually be durable and if it is durable, then youre going to have very likely a three Dose Regimen being the routine regimen. After just one year on the job, japans Prime Minister is effectively stepping down. He says he wont run in the liberal democratic Party Leadership Race later this month because he wants to focus on covid pandemic countermeasures.
