Now stretched beyond the limit. His urgent warning moments before the u. S. Strike in kabul that killed ten people, the cia actually had warned there were civilians in that area. A historymaking mission, an allcivilian crew splashing down to earth, the details on their return after three days in orbit. Welcome to your sunday, seps 19th. We are always so grateful to have your company. Hi, boris. Good morning. Always great to be with you. We love it. Thanks. So lets talk about whats happening, the crisis along the southern border of the u. S. More than 14,000 migrants are living under that bridge you see there. Look at that. Theyre waiting to be processed by immigration authorities. You can see the tents and the blankets and this is basically their home right now. Theyre living in squalid conditions. The department of Homeland Security is sending more customs and Border Patrol agents to the region right now. Authorities are also taking steps to help alleviate some of the horrendous conditions in that makeshift city that theyve built under the bridge. Cnn Correspondent Rosa flores has details. Reporter boris, christi, we are starting to see federal and state resources descend on Del Rio as officials try to expedite the processing of thousands of migrants who are practically living under a bridge. Dhs announcing saturday their new strategy which includes things like a surge of 400 agents and officers, closing the port of entry, upping humanitarian action, increasing capacity of Removal And Expulsion flights to haiti. Local officials tell us one of the things theyre very concerned about is the public health issue. Think about it. There are thousands of people in very close quarters living under a bridge. Now I Cant go there and show you exactly whats happening there because I Cant go beyond the Border Fence that you see behind me, but heres what weve been able to see from where we are. Take a look at this Video And Youll see that there are Border Patrol agents rendering medical attention to a woman in the back of a pickup truck. I was close enough to hear what that officer was telling that woman, she was saying, stay with me. I asked the local mayor if dhs is giving him a timeline as to how long its going to take them to process all these migrants, and he said the answer was no. Boris, christi . Rosa flores from the border with mexico, lets get perspective now with nicol phillips, the legal director for the nonprofit group haitian bridge alliance. Good morning, nicol. We appreciate you joining us today. You said that this particular crisis at the border was preventable. Helps us understand why . Good morning. Well, most of these haitians have been in mexico for a period of time, many, many months, often many, many years. Theyve been living at the u. S. Mexico Border since as far back as 2016 trying to get across and seek asylum. But the border has been closed, largely to haitians. Its been very, very difficult, if not impossible, for them to seek asylum at the border. Others have been stuck at the Mexico Guard Mall la border and have recently gotten through there. So somehow we havent figured out how but there is a rumor that people could cross at this Del Rio area and so people who were trying to seek asylum flocked to this area to try to get across. It was preventable because the biden administration knew that these haitian Asylum Seekers were there. Weve been telling them for years that they needed to start opening up the border, the ports of entry, to allow them to lawfully seek asylum as u. S. Law and international law allows and the biden administration as well as the Trump Administration before them were ignoring this. Why do you think that is . Did you ever get a response from them as to why these haitians were being handled the way that they were . You know, historically for decades going back to the regime in haiti in the 1970s and we saw boats of Asylum Seekers fleeing the country, the united states borders have generally been closed to haitian Asylum Seekers. Theres been a lot of unfair treatment of haitians particularly compared with cubans and now venezuelans. Theres a lot who think that this is sort of antiblack racism policies in our Immigration System that dates back and so more most recently with the Trump Administration under title 42, the u. S. Mexico Border has been completely closed to all Asylum Seekers since march of last year under the pretext of not wanting to spread covid, but, of course, that is a false pretext because as you can imagine, when theyre sending people to different Processing Centers around the united states and theyre going to be incarcerating them, there will still be the chance of covid being spread. While theyre processing people in these various different points across the united states, they could just process them for asylum and instead theyre saying theyre going to deport them. Most of them without even a chance for all of them i think the biden administration said, without a chance of applying for asylum. This is what the Trump Administration did, which is what biden is continuing to do. Cnn learned that the biden administration plans to ramp up Deportation Flights to haiti and could be a deterrent for people planning to come to the united states. Do you think that would work as a deterrent . Is that a sustainable solution . In the long term its not a deterrent at all. Haitians that have come to the u. S. Mexico Border your footage showed awful conditions people are living in now. Nobody chooses to bring their children or even themselves to conditions like that unless they are very desperate. Whats important to note whats happening in haiti, weve all been hearing on the news, which is an earthquake that devastated the whole south of the country and shut down many parts of the country, which is a political Turmoil And Violence in haiti due to the assassination of their president. Haiti before evens the president was assassinated, before even the earthquake, the biden administration designated haiti for temporary protected status, which meant they didnt see fit, it wasnt safe, To Return Haitians who had arrived in the united states before july 29th. Theres no way that it is safe for these haitians that are now in Del Rio to be deported to haiti. The government cannot process them. Their families, many of them, have been affected by the earthquake. Theres no home for them to go to. There are still Loved Ones that need to be buried, and there are kidnappings, particularly in the portauprince area, every day. Its not a safe country. Its really unfortunately a spiraling country that is becoming a bit of like a somalia, a lawless country. Nicol phillips, we appreciate your perspective, thanks for joining us. Thank you. So we know fda advisors voted against Video Boosters for most americans. Thats not The End of the story. Why they are pushing still for everyone to get a booster. Well be right back. O exclusive.

We have just learned that united states is reporting nearly 2,000 deaths per day, the highest Sevenday Average since march 2nd, according to johns hopkins. Health officials in alabama were only 41 of the population has had their shots, said more people died there in 2020 during the beginning of the pandemic than were born. Mississippi, which has 42 of all residents vaccinated, has the highest amount of deaths in the nation per capita from covid19. The alarming data comes as a key Fda Panel voted friday to recommend an additional Pfizer Dose for anyone 65 and older or anyone who is at high risk for severe illness. Cnns Nadia Romero has more. Reporter florida, alabama, a bigtime College Football Showdown saturday in the heart of sec country, but also bigtime covid19 country. Florida reported fewer than 100,000 new covid19 cases over the past week since july 16th. The state surpassed the grim milestone of 50,000 deaths from the virus. 96. 6 of those individuals were unvaccinated. We encourage you to get vaccinated. Reporter with no masks or vaccine mandates 80,000 fans packed florida stadium to cheer on the gators and the crimson tide. In alabama, what could be a misleading statistic, Icu Bed Capacity is going up, meaning more availability in hospitals there but it is not because the patients are miraculously getting better and going home. Its because theyre dying. That is alarming for us, because again, this surge is primarily impacting those that are younger. This is not what we were expecting. Reporter in the last 60 days about 60 of all covid19 outbreaks in georgia happened in k through 12 schools. The vaccinated message from a Georgia Hospital Association Standpoint is, you know, we want you to trust the science. If every scientist in the world has been focusing their attention on a developing a vaccine and feel its safe and trusted, you can trust in that science. Reporter the situation in georgia is so grim that covid is Wreaking Havoc at the atlanta zoo. Primates impacted by the pandemic too. 18 out of 20 gorillas have covid19 symptoms, nine have tested positive. We know there may be differing opinions. Reporter Friday Afternoon an Fda Advisory Committee declined to recommend a Pfizer Booster Shot for Everyone Everyone 16 and older and advised a third dose at 65 and older and high risk. Health experts weighed in on that decision. Really compelling data above 65, 50, but if you care about is Keeping Schools open, what you care about is reducing the spread, what you care about is keeping businesses open, you can justify dropping that down to a lower age. Reporter nadya romero, cnn, atlanta. Joining us now to discuss all Things Covid is Respiratory Therapist at Virginia Beach general hospital, bee williams. Thank you for sharing some of your weekend with us. Im cur russ what it looks like in your hospital right now . Take us behind the doors. How is your staff doing . How are patients doing . So at Virginia Beach general and throughout all of virginia, its a lot of patients with covid that are younger, 30, 40, 50 years old. My Respiratory Therapists and the nurses and the doctors are just stretched to our limits. We just are overwhelmed with the amount of critically ill patients at our hospitals because they are unvaccinated. What is it like to have a conversation with a family of someone who is deteriorating . Who caught covid and theyre watching their loved one slowly deteriorate in that way . What do you tell them . Its really heartbreaking. We get to know these patients. We have conversations with them. They, you know, allow us sometimes to have face time conversations with their Family Members, because obviously the Family Members are not allowed to be in the hospital with them and, you know, we get to know them and they talk about, you know, when is my Family Member going to come home or the patient will ask, when can i go home. I have bills to pay, i have children to take Care Of, and, you know, we cant allow them to go home because theyre on such high levels of oxygen. Theyre on 60 , 100 . Now theyre dealing with, you know, this illness on top of the life outside of the hospital and what it means to be out of work for a long period of time. I can tell in your voice this is something painful for you. How are you doing . Its really difficult. I think that, you know, as a Respiratory Therapist, everyone in my department, we all went into respiratory to take Care Of patients and wanted to make a difference, and ill tell you, you know, we get a real satisfaction from having someone, who say, for example, a Trauma Patient who we intubate, but were able to get them off of the ventilator and see them recover and they come back to see us and thank us. We know weve made a difference. This last year and a half, we just didnt get that any more because theyre so sick and end up dying alone and its just one after the other after the other. Now theyre just so much younger and it just it breaks our heart. We try to lean on each other. We try to be there for each other. But its gotten to the point where, you know, some people just dont want to work in this profession anymore. Its really hard. Yeah. I mean it has to be extremely discouraging and painful for you to witness not only so much death, but so much preventable death, right . If people would get vaccinated, there would be fewer hospitalizations and fewer deaths. So you have a chance now to offer some words of encouragement to the public, maybe for people who are Hess Tent to get vaccinated. What would you say . I would say please get vaccinated. I mean, we all want us to move past covid. We all want us to, you know, have some sense of normalcy and get back to precovid time and the only way that i can see is by everyone getting vaccinated. When 90 of these patients who are coming in that are seeing respiratory are unvaccinated, 90 , so that tells you that yes, the vaccine does work. Yeah. Its so important to remember that message and remember that for every statistic that we cite, these are actual people that have families and people that are caring for them like you that are dealing with a lot of stress and witnessing so much pain. We appreciate your work. Thank you so much for joining us today. Thank you. We now know that an urgent warning from the cia about who was in that car the u. S. Military was tracking in kabul came too late. Were live from afghanistan for you after the break. Stay close. Visible is wireless that doesnt play games.

Drone strike Hit In Kabul last month the cia issued an urgent warning saying that civilians were likely in that area, including children, possibly inside the vehicle that was being targeted. The warning came too late, though. As we now know, that missile killed ten innocent people, an afghan Aide Worker bringing Water Home for his family, two other adults and seven children. The pentagon initially said an Isisk Suspect was in the car and carrying explosives but defense officials now admit there was no terrorist present at that time. Cnns senior diplomatic editor Nic Robertson is live from kabl right now, at the heart of this, nic, when we watch that video, we know this is a family and you have spoken to some of them. What have you learned about them . This is the Ahmadi Family that are really still in shock. They cant understand, with all this hightech surveillance, how the military, how the Pentagon Couldnt have known that there were civilians in the area because its a very densely populated neighborhood with tiny, narrow back alleys, and their children were out at the front when the father was Coming Home at The End of his days work. This was the moment for them to enjoy some fun time with their father and they were helping guide his vehicle into the compound and they would do what they always do when he came home with the water, pile in the vehicle with him, have some fun with him and then help him get the water out. Of course that was the moment when the missile struck. To go back and talk to the family now, is really just a touch and feel that pain that theyre going through. This is the blood of the children up here. Reporter Emall Ahmadi shows me his familys shattered house. Its just heartbreaking to see this now. And to know that they say it was just a mistake. Yeah. Thats a big mistake. Reporter No One has had the heart to clean it up since the Drone Strike three weeks ago. Like my cute daughter that I Cant forget her. She was so lively for me. I remember all of them. Reporter the pentagons late admission, though, that his brother Zemari Ahmadi was not an isis terrorist, something positive. The usa has proved that they are targeting innocent people. Reporter he still has questions. Five children, he says, were inside the car when it was hit. The usa knows inside the car was children. Why target an innocent person in this area . Why target a civilian person . Reporter so far they say theyve had no calls from u. S. Officials, hoping for help to rebuild and even row locate to america. Can you forgive them . Maybe. You know that our last my family, return them back for us. Its impossible. Its impossible. No one save us to return them back. Reporter to the world this is a Drone Strike gone wrong. For the Ahmadi Family, its an irreplaceable loss. Another brother, ramall, shows me the familys graves scattered in the unforgiving rocky ground of a dusty kabul cemetery. His own three children, his daughter aged 2, sons 6 and 7, all killed in the strike, buried here, too. What do you want for the person thats responsible . Reporter his answer, justice. The Drone Operators should go to court. For now, prayers and the acknowledgement of their familys innocence, their only solace. I think that sense of getting justice and just wanting to see justice happen in u. S. Courts, and this was a family that had a lot of connections to the united states, a brother i was talking to had worked for a u. S. Company, his brother who was killed worked for a u. S. Ngo, they really feel connected to the united states so its not a the country, american people, are not an Alien Concept to them. They have Trust And Faith in the u. S. Justice system but they would like to see it come into play for the pentagon to go thoroughly through what happened and for anyone who made a mistake or should be held accountable for that process to happen. Nic robertson, we appreciate it so much. Thats hard. Thats hard. You know what, theres some of that feeling here in the u. S. Family and friends were gathering in California Yesterday to say their final farewells to three u. S. Marines who were killed last month in an attack outside kabul airport. This was, of course, during the american evacuation in afghanistan. Look at the people just packed this church in palm springs. They were honoring the life of 22yearold corporal hunter lopez. In fact, she was a star Wars Fan who in the days before the bombing had just saved two young girls who were being crushed in that panicked crowd. A service was held in Northern California for sacramento native sergeant nicol gee. The marine who posted online days before she died she, quote, loved her job helping afghans evacuate. My god my savior in riverside, california, here, 20yearold corporal kareem na cuey, whose pastor said he died doing what he loved, helping people. President Biden Set to address the u. N.

President biden is hoping to recapture some momentum for his agenda this week as a series of unexpected setbacks obviously are putting his administration on some shaky ground, not just at home but abroad. The president set to address some key challenges with World Leaders at the United Nations this week. Jasmine wright joins us live. Jasmine, what are we expecting to hear from President Biden in the coming days . Yeah. Well President Biden steps firmly on the World Stage this week, really after a rough couple of days here in washington. When we see President Biden on Tuesday Address the General Assembly at the United Nations for the first time as president , he does so, boris and christi, really under the shadow of the multiple problems that his administration has to address, from that Drone Strike in afghanistan that the u. S. Military says tragically killed ten civilians instead of that intended target, to the overall chaotic withdrawal from afghanistan and the fallouts to the spat with france over the sale of nuclear powered submarines with australia to the ongoing pandemic to, you know, potentially his economic agenda, just to name a few. When we see President Biden on monday, he will return from his weekend in rehoboth where he will travel to New York to meet with the Secretary General of the United Nations antonio guterres, on tuesday he will speak to the General Assembly and potentially hold bilateral meetings taking advantage of the u. N. Being back in person. On wednesday President Biden will convene a virtual global Vaccine Summit where he will urge leaders to collectively commit to vaccinating 70 of the Worlds Population against covid, sources tell cnn, and an ambitious goal. He faces criticism globally about the Booster Plan as his administration prepares to administer shots while other prepares to administer third shots while other nations have yet to provide their first to some of their citizens. On friday, he will host a first ever in Person Leader Summit with the leaders of australia, india and japan, as he stares down again that conflict with france. All of this international activity, though, is happening here in america comes as his administration is looking to get a jumpstart as you said, christi, as you said, boris, on their domestic issues, really looking to find some common ground between the moderates and the progressives of the Democratic Party to come together on President Bidens proposed 3. 5 trillion social Spending Bill as this administration is really, really looking for a political win this week. Boris, christi . Jasmine wright, we appreciate the wrapup, thank you so much. So here are some of the other stories were following this morning.

September is childhood Cancer Awareness Month and right now youre going to meet a kid who has beat cancer three times and now he and his mom want to do something to help families go through what theyve gone through. Ryan was first diagnosed with leukemia when he was 3 years old. He relapsed at age 9 and again just in the last year at age 13. He understands the pressure of rushing to the Emergency Room in a really dire situation and needing to just grab a bag full of necessities to go. This is why ryan and his Mom Christi decided they were going to launch got your backpack. They raised money to put together Go Bags with Hospital Necessities like toiletries and extra sets of clothes and personal items for other kids who are fighting cancer and understand the journey. 14yearold ryan and his Mom Christi are with us. It is so good to see you two. Gosh, ryan, i mean, there are people who wish they could have survived three times and youre only 14 years old. Talk to me about how you do that . How do you beat cancer three times . I mean, the strength. Theres no really magic to it. You just cant give up on yourself. You have to always realize who youre fighting for and who like who wants you to survive. Thats basically what got me through. You have a lot of people supporting you . Uhhuh. Yeah. Christi, the other thing i think that is the takeaway for people who are watching this is, i mean, as parents, we can not even begin to understand what this journey has been like for you, talk about some of those moments or one or two of those moments when you really had to fight yourself. I think the hardest thing is like just it feels so never ending when youre in it. Obviously as a mother when you see your child sick or hurting and not able to do anything about it or help them in any way, is and we did have some really close calls through the years, and its been extremely difficult for sure. Ripe, i understand you were on Life Support at one point. What do you remember most about those times in the hospital . Mostly just felt like i was trapped, like i couldnt get out, and even though there were like nice people that came in, they also got to leave so it was kind of hard. It was hard to see them leave . Yeah. I want to ask you to take me to that moment when you heard for the third time that you had beaten this thing. What was that like . What did they say to you . I dont remember the third time as much as the second time. Oh, thats okay. What about the second time then . The second time i was playing with a friend of mine, and then, like, my mom got a call and then like she said i was cancerfree and i started like bawling basically. Okay, chrisity, how about you . Well, the thing about Blood Cancer is that, i mean, at least with ryan, its been pretty easy to get him in remission. Its keeping him in remission which has been the tricky the a. His cancer likes to hide out and wait five or six years before it comes back, so for us hearing that hes about cancerfree has, of course, been amazing and such a relief, but when it comes to leukemia, at least aml, its the getting him in remission is just the first step basically because then after that then you do have to go on to the Bone Marrow Transplant so its kind of that bittersweet, yes, youre super excited that he doesnt have cancer and that hes in remission, but thats just the first step to lead you to the next steps.
