Part of the planned attack was possibly taking out Hassan Nasrallah, the Mastermind And Head of has block. All of this comes at a time where Tel Aviv is on very high alert. Because if they did get this guy hes not just any other leader. Hes a very, very different type of leader from which ramifications for widening war have picked up considerably. Welcome everybody. Im Neil Cavuto and this is your world. Right now were looking at the extent of these attacks. No confirmation that Hassan Nasrallah himself has been among those killed. But we do know that theres sort of a call to bunker and safety not only in Tel Aviv but throughout israel and fears this war has just escalated beyond what anyone thought.

Cnn breaking news good evening. I m abby phillip in new york. Our special coverage continues tonight of hurricane helene, a monster category four storm that is now moments away from making landfall in florida. At this moment, it was too late now for folks along the coast too evacuate. Officials warned that the winds and the storm surge will be be catastrophic in some areas, the word that they are using is unsurvivable helene could be the strongest storm on record for the big bend region.

Breaking news and good evening. I m erin burnett outfront tonight. The breaking news unsurvivable. That is the exact word officials are using right now, as hurricane helene has now grown to an extremely dangerous category four hurricane, bringing with it potentially really historic storm surge levels right now expected at 20 feet. Let s just look at the scene right now is a live camera that we have in met lots of florida trees right there right now, you ve got up to 130 an hour gusts coming through that area on that bridge. We have seen cars coming and going really even in these past few moments, which is pretty stunning. Many bridges have already been closed.

Saying yeah, we have a category three hurricane on our hands right now, what 125 mile per hour winds my point that out because it category four hurricane starts at 130 mile per hour winds, so were really talking about a difference of five to ten miles per hour here, right . So right now, its a very Highend Category three teetering on that category four, which is why the national Hurricane Center is saying, hey, look, its still sitting over very warm from Ocean Waters right now. It has all the ingredients it needs to strengthen. So theres really not much to stop it from gaming that five miles per hour that it needs to just get to that category and become a category four either way, whether its this Highend Category three, or it makes that fivemile per Hour Difference to a category four. We are still talking about the Sam Catastrophic on survivable impacts when it comes to the Storm Surge and heavy Rain And Everything else. Weve been talking about, the radar.
