humanity that are taking away be honest, full report errors tonight at 8:00 p.m. eastern on the whole story with anderson cooper only on cnn. and thank you so much for joining me this weekend. i'm fredricka whitfield. don't forget your eclipse glasses tomorrow see in a newsroom continues with jessica dean, right now >> you are in the cnn newsroom. hi, everyone. i'm jessica dean in new york and we have breaking news tonight in the war between israel and hamas. israel marketing six months of its war in gaza with a major development, the idf saying it's withdrawing its troops from khan yunis in southern gaza, having concluded its mission ms now leaving to

recuperate and prepare for future operations. >> a good >> significant bourse will still remain in other areas of the strip. >> this move marking a new face, >> and the war as israel faces rising pressure from the us to dial down operations in gaza. but israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu says he's not backing down, and that pressure from the us will not stop his plans to invade the southern city of rafah the prime minister also facing significant trouble at home with thousands of protesters coming out in force this weekend to demand his resignation. >> and abroad as israel's military says, it's preparing to move from quoque defense to attack >> and its border with lebanon after the countries that >> it hit multiple hezbollah targets overnight cnn's nic robertson is joining us now >> nick, this is the >> six month mark of this war, and we are seeing major developments today. give us the latest yeah the idf is characterizing this pooled

pullback, withdrawal of the 98th division from khan yunis as a >> mark step change in its operations, changing the groundwater in gaza in its current form. they say, the troops coming out and we saw them today in a field about a mile from the border dozens the tanks, dozens of armored fighting vehicles, a lot of the troops who'd already gone off to begin their recuperation and preparation for the next phase. preparation was going on on the tanks are lower than need repair intensive work. they'd been in battle for months in khan yunis. a lot of tunnels, their spin, a difficult fight, a lot of soldiers lost four soldiers killed last night just as they were withdrawing and pulling out >> but for the >> idf, they're saying they can still go after and get the other commanders from hamas if they get the intelligence, they're keeping a strong presence in the north of gaza. the, uh, hundred and 62nd division there and they're indicating that if they need to adapt and they can send these forces back in to refer that southern gazan city where about

1.5 million palestinians currently living >> and neck, we're also learning, israel has now delayed. its plan reopening of the erez border crossing i believe you were there yesterday for some time. what are you learning about that >> yeah. the government has said it would operate today. it seemed like a fast turnaround because that's normally a foot passenger crossing workers coming out of gaza work for the de of week in israel? cross back by foot. and this is what officials are saying cogat, the government body that handled sir, transfer of humanitarian aid says there's some logistical work required before the trucks can crossover. we noticed the explosions in the area yesterday, heard them again today gunfire at the border, a lot highways connecting the border to the towns where the aid would need to go. those have been blown up by the intensive fighting and the that government body cogat, actually did make a point of saying, despite not getting errors open and have not set a

date for it yet, they say they got the most number of aid trucks into gaza of any day in the past six months, 322 trucks, 70% of them, they say had food on 200 trucks of food. they say, when ten, this is something that un hasn't spoken about yet. if they got that number where they are what happened to them. but this is what the israel is the they actually despite not getting errors open, which was important because it's the north, they did get a lot of trucks into the south >> and then lastly, before we let you go, i want to ask you to about these negotiations for a ceasefire and hostage release deal. we know that officials from israel and hamas are in hi, are along with the cia director and others >> these, these talks have been pretty stalled. a stalemate. >> is >> there any indication that this could be different? >> so a lot of pressure from the united states on israel to make movement on this. we've seen that play out, i think

today in part because of the troop withdrawal, the pressure to open the erez border crossing a commitment. it hasn't happened. >> so i think this does change the >> dynamic a little bit at the talks table and a center, the troops in combat need a break so it changes what there is available to negotiate with and what hamas is being presented with. the details then not that we don't know if this is really going to make a difference. but there could be. and i think expectations at the moment or this is a moment where they could be progress. it could take several more days maybe more than that. but this is a moment that could be different to what we've seen over the past few months and weeks then the gaps though in the negotiations, they may not sound too big like the number of palestinians to be freed for the number of hostages released. and if it's a permanent ceasefire or pausing ceasefire, and how quickly you

get a permanent but these are the really tough details. but by pulling all these troops out that's a signal that israel is making. that the dynamic is slightly shifting. now i think of the pressure will be on hamas for them to make some kind of statement like effect on the ground >> all right. nic robertson forest in jerusalem. thanks so much for that reporting. we're also learning more today about that pointed phone call between president joe biden and the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu thursday, cnn's priscilla alvarez is falling all this for as priscilla, what did the president say? he wants to see? we had kind of heard broad explanations of this, but we're learning new details now >> that's all right. jessica, he placed pressure on israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu to make policy changes or else the us could change their policy and some of those asks we're really focused on ramping up humanitarian aid that includes

opening that land crossingyo were just speaking to nick about, as well as opening up a pore to get humanitarian aid in and also just generally ramping up supplies into gaza. of course, this was a critical moment. this call was put on the books last week after the deaths of those world central kitchen employees. and this sources tell tell cnn that when the president walks through and tick through these policy changes that he wanted to see. the response by the prime minister wasn't going to get done, but the president went even further are saying that it needed to get done quickly. so hours later we did see these really security cabinet approved multiple of those measures. now, up until this point, the white house has welcomed the moves since that phone call, acknowledging that there have been frustrations, but also that they are watching what happens moving forward. that's something the national security council spokesperson, john kirby talked about this morning. and of course, the us here is really going a step further by suggesting that

there would be a policy change if they don't see changes by israel. the question is, what that looks like and what are the metrics here? one senior administration official said, that's something that the us could do is slow down weapons to israel. but there are all the point here for the us though, is that they are defending israel. they still believe israel has the right to defend itself what happens next though, still very unclear. >> all right. priscilla alvarez forest in washington. thanks so much for that reporting. and joining us now is seen in military analyst and retired us army commanding general mark hertling great to have you on. thanks so much for making time. >> we are marking the >> six-month anniversary and we as we just learned, the idf announcing, it's withdrawing troops from that khan yunis in southern gaza, saying that the division has concluded its mission. what does this say to you from a military perspective? >> i'm going to counter some of the things that were just said, jessica, if you don't mind, the 98th division, the

israeli division, that's been fighting for six months is really in tough condition right now, anytime you put a combat operation together like that for that long of a period of time, they have to rest and refit and i think israel is taking that advantage of time to pull them out, refit them, get them prepare for future missions that israel has also open the or is attempting open the border crossings, as you said, but i'd kinda counter a little bit of what the common thinking is that if you're on the hamas side of this fight, you're thinking israel has been pulled out of the fight at about the time they were getting ready to go into rafah prime minister netanyahu has said rightly or wrongly that this is the final battle against hamas, that there are four battalions and that could mean anywhere from two to 7,000 terrorist in that final area of rafah it's like taking an operation to the end point and then stopping just short of completing the mission, he's getting a whole lot of pressure

from the world and from the united states to stop the israeli operations. and perhaps that's right to do so right now and it will give israel a chance to refit, but it's also giving hamas a chance to refit the israeli forces went into rapa excuse me, into khan yunis yesterday, and kept or not captured but saved the body of a hostage. there are still 130 hostages left, and there are a lot of terrorists left. so from a military standpoint, this is to truly an inflection point. and what's going on in the southern part of gaza. but i'd also say israel is preparing for a potential strikes by iran in different areas. and the potential for hezbollah to increase their activity on the northern border of israel as well >> and so what does this mean? in your opinion, for these follow-up missions that the idf was talking about, you just mentioned rafah, that's been a key area of focus for them for

several weeks now, the president and the white and the biden ministration have been trying to talk with the israeli government about that. do you think we'll see a ground incursion there? and how is that? all? and it >> yeah. i've said from the very beginning, jessica, i think we will because that is the last stronghold of hamas. hamas is dedicated itself to killing jews and destroying the israeli state. they're going to see this delay or this retrofit and the pulling out of the 98th division as a semi victory in my view, that's how terrorists will react. they will publicize this and message this that yes, their strategy to bring the world and the united states to the fray of saying, israel, stop your actions. it has gotten too rough. they will see that as a victory i believe we will see an eventual operations inside of rafah. i don't know when that will be, but i think prime minister netanyahu is going to

delay that because he is getting such political pressure from the united states and from the international community i want to ask you about that because he is getting this increasing criticism and pressure from the us, from other nations over how israel is >> fighting this war. do you think that's fair? >> i do. i absolutely i do. >> from a >> military perspective, i think the idf is conducting operations in a very focused way to defeat the terrorists. unfortunately, in these kind of counterterrorism operations, you also have to have a political and diplomatic approach to this. and i don't i believe the netanyahu government has done that. they have not safe guarded the palestinian citizens inside of gaza. and that's creating more terrorists and it's also bringing the diplomatic effort against israel so any kind of operation like this, jessica just can't consist of the military arm. it also has to

include the diplomatic and the informational arm, as well as the safeguarding of innocent citizens. israel has not done that, and that is what is called, that's come to their detriment general mark hertling, we're going to leave it there. thanks so ch for your time on this sunday. we appreciate it >> thanks, jessi till aom house intelligence committee chair mike turner says, russian propaganda has infiltrated congress. why he says this is impacting the republican party plus the us is in the grips of eclipse fever. we're going to take a look at how droves of totality. flocking toreasf >> and >> the surge in interests more on what's ahead for some of its biggest stars >> during the cnn newsroom >> tonight new intern fuse with a return israeli hostages. >> what is the meaning of being hoste phrase no certainty, and the fight for the release of those still in captivity.

bipartisan $95 billion package includes money for israel for ukraine, for taiwan. mike johnson in the time said he wanted that to include border security measures. then the santa bipartisan border security deal mike johnson, along with donald trump posed it essentially it was killed in the senate. so where do they go from here? because there is still this demand for ukraine aid. mike johnson is trying to move behind the scenes to try to cobble together a plan that could win over significant amount of republicans support and tried to woo democrats as well. it is uncertain whether you can do that. he wants border provisions in there. he wants to narrow hello, the ukraine package. all of which still could be too much for ukraine, clicks within his conference, namely marjorie taylor greene, who is running to oust him from the speakership. has is already filed a resolution ever call for a vote seeking his ouster. remember this happened last fall to kevin mccarthy. he was a first ever. ousted by his own colleagues on a vote on the

house floor, green is dragging to do that. again, she told me last week that johnson should absolutely not move forward at any ukraine aid package saying they would mo move the needle with her, suggesting that that could actually force that vote. the question would be, would democrats come to john france's defense? and would they do that if, even if johnson move forward with, ukraine aid package that was not something that they ultimately could get behind all major questions for the speaker going forward. now the speaker has been busy himself trying to raise money for republican candidates as they tried to scrambled to keep their razor thin republican majority and the democratic side. i have learned a new details, but the push by the democrats to take back the house in the fall, the democratic super pac, house majority pac plans to invest more money than it ever has to win back the house. they are announcing today, hundred and 86 million. the split between 100 million or so for tv ads as the rest for digital ads, in some key swing districts going

after republicans in biden districts trying to defend democrats and trump districts all going to lead to a furious battle, or as the leader of the group told me, trench warfare with republicans, district by district. they tried to keep the republican the demo to win over with that take the democrats back to the majority. but there are so few districts truly at play here. so enormous sums will be spent, but will have huge implications as we can see right now, the majority decides the agenda and the democratic majority, their agenda would be much different than the republicans manu raju, cnn washington >> all right. thank you. and joining us now, discuss former republican congressman and cnn senior political commentator adam kinzinger. it is great to have you here with us. we appreciate you coming on this afternoon. >> i just want to start first with one thing that manu just laid out there, that speaker mike johnson it may have to work with democrats to essentially save his speakership. they've signaled they might save him if he moves a ukraine funding bill, they

can support, but he's going to have to walk quite a fine line. >> what do you think he should do when they return >> look, here's what i think he should do i mean, he's going to survive. i would put dollars to doughnuts. it will be the speed speaker at the end of this term. now, he's either going to survive by succumbing to the frank of the terrorism of marjorie taylor greene. anytime anything wants to get done, she's going to hold this threat over his head or he can survive by cutting a deal with the democrats. now, he has to think about his conscience because i got to tell you if ukraine loses this fight, he will be the guy in the history books that are written about why ukraine lost this fight. he will be, they won't necessarily say that he's the one that pulled the aid, but he's the one that could have done something which changed it. and, as he's developing whatever this package looks like, there's talks of luck bones and i guess there are some pot participle agreement with that. >> but i think >> we need to recognize the fact that ukraine, it's not us

helping ukraine. ukraine is helping us by fighting to defend themselves against one of our chief competitors and frankly, enemies in this world. so he needs, if i was him, i would come back. i would put the senate bill on the floor or next case is just strip the israel portion out of it since that's a little more controversial pass it, and either send it back to the senate are sent to the president. the sign, and have your conscience clear and let the ukrainians defeat the russians on the battlefield. >> yeah next to this, we heard earlier this week from republican congressman michael mccaul. he said russian propaganda in his opinion has infiltrated the gop then congressman mike turner was on cnn's state of the union, and said this will play the club it is absolutely a true we see directly coming from russia attempts to mask communications that are anti ukraine >> and pro russia messages, some of which we even here being uttered on the house floor. i mean, there are members of congress to day who's still incorrectly say

that this conflict between russia and ukraine is over nato, which of course it is not to the extent that this propaganda takes hold. it makes it more difficult for us to really see this as an authoritarian versus democracy battle, which is what it is and so there's the intelligent, the chairman of the intelligence committee, republicans saying that russian propaganda has made its way into parts of the gop. how did this happen? >> well, yeah, i mean, look, so in 2015, i was on the foreign affairs committee and there was a guide, dana roar backer, who would always defend the russians and i would fight with him he's a republican. i would fight with them and people would say, adam, don't fight with them. he's on our team, he's just wrong on this. we actually thought he might have been been paid by the kgb, which said that jokingly, kind of and but in five years, you look at are nine years and totality, how quickly it went from one member of the gop to a number of members. what i can do at 20 minutes segment on why part of the reason is because this propaganda has convinced

people like marjorie taylor greene that somehow, you know, putin, who bombs churches and murders children, that vladimir putin is some defender of christian values is look, i'm a christ follower and know christ, i follow would ever agree that bombing churches and women and children and attacking land to grab land for the sake of grabbing land, would be anything he would espouse, but this has infected the party these two gentlemen are right. but let me also say, these two gentlemen, turner and mccaul, our best suited to go to the speaker of the house and say, look, we have a group of people that will shut down every piece of action to come to the floor, every bill we will vote against, every rule until you agree to put ukraine on the floor and they would change that in a week. he would have no choice. and frankly, the speaker would probably appreciate that in the long run because it would force them into that corner they need to step up as well on this issue. >> yeah, you're saying they could they could give him some cover on that. and it is

interesting as we're having this conversation to note that 21 republicans are heading for the exits this year. they're not going to run for reelection. you resigned, obviously, over a year ago. a lot of the republicans that are leaving are known on the hill, known in the house are being reasonable people that can cut deals that can work in a bipartisan way. what kind of concerns do you have and what do you think the message is to be gleaned from who is resigning and what and how many of them are resigning or leaving at the end of the >> look, the frustration is pretty simple. so if you're a serious legislator, washington dc is not the place for you anymore look at mike gallagher, serious legislator, led the china committee. it pushed the tiktok ban, which is actually a pretty good bill and but he's leaving because it'd besides that, it's a performance art theatre. i mean, that's really what the house become his performance theater. mainly for the republicans

>> it's all >> about how loud and angry can you be because you'll get retweets, you'll get instagram, you'll be on the news. it's all about trying to yell at whoever's testifying in front of your committees so that fox news couple numbers, it that night, and that's like a huge win in the office and everybody in your staff celebrates because you made the clip on hanadi or whatever. and so there's a lot of people that are serious that are just saying it's not worth it. i mean, congress hasn't had a pay raise since 2006. i don't say that for sympathy for anybody, but every year with inflation, they're basically being paid less the only people that are coming are those that are independently wealthy. or this is the best job they can get, or they just want to come and be instantly famous. so i'm long-term optimistic, honestly because i think the american people i've, i've been traveling around a lot. they're sick of this. and when america's sick is something, they rise up and change it. but in the short-term, we have to recognize is what this problem is in order to confront it and change it. and i worry that this is the frog boiling and the pot and we just think this is how politics is. and we

deserve far better than these folks >> well, you have to come back on because i think there's an even longer conversation to have about how to fix that and what comes next before we get to that point. but we'll leave it there for now. former congressman adam kinzinger. thanks so much >> you bet. take care. >> like come millions of people will be watching tomorrow's eclipse. >> but >> what kind of impact is it going to have on animals? >> we're going to check. in with the. zoo. >> it's in the path of totality to see how they're perfect check we hear nothing. >> the space shuttle accidents usually not one thing. it's a series of events is that part of the wing coming apart >> shuttle columbia, the final flight premieres tonight at nine on cnn. >> what you doing, just buying a car on carbonic you or not? yeah, it's super convenient. already got pre-qualified in two minutes >> yeah, it is. >> look, i can customize my terms, say the costume down and

been talking about it for weeks now. we're less than 24 hours away from the silt hello eclipse meteorologist elisa raffa joins us now, alisyn, the path of totality >> some people are going >> to get a clear view, but others, unfortunately, it sounds like you're going to get a lot of clouds yeah, clouds and some storms on the exit from any of those solar eclipse events in texas. that's where we've been watching closely as the severe threat there continues to grow. looks like your best viewing could be in the ohio valley or maybe even in new england. >> but we're now at an >> enhanced level three out of five risk of drawing and severe storms for damaging winds, large hail and a couple of tornadoes. now it does look like the storms will peak after that totality for places like dallas, you might have a couple of showers early and then the storm's really blow up where you might have about a one to two hour window to get out of your eclipse events and get into somewhere where you won't have some of those where you won't have some of those storms you've got some clouds and that you'll have in texas and then some more sunshine in indianapolis that that peak

time ob3 clock >> at least if the cloud cover improves a little bit farther north, does that mean? burlington, vermont might have the best view >> yes >> we could have some pretty clear skies up in burlington. that's where we could have possibly the best view. you can see. we've got some of those showers that will be along that path of totality. but we do have some clear skies up new england. >> all right, elisa raffa for us. thanks so much for that forecast. we appreciate it. >> and as you just saw, the total solar eclipse, it's going to pass over large areas of the country, including right over niagara falls, which has seen a big influx of tourist. >> and that's where we find >> cnn's harry enten. we're also going to check in first with miguel marquez, who who is joining us from cleveland, and miguel cleveland, right in the center of the path of totality. i know yesterday everyone was getting a little anxious about the potential for rain what's the word there today >> sun, sun is the word. it was

sunny yesterday. it's sunny today. it's going to be sunny tomorrow. we commanded it. we've done the sun dancers. it's going to happen. absolutely guaranteed. it's gonna be gorgeous. look, this is the great lakes science center. there's gonna be one of the bigger sort of events here, 30,000 people, maybe plus according this area tens of thousands everywhere watching this thing. this is home cleaving his home to the glenn that nasa research center, which is the only nasa facility in the country in the path of totality. so nasa has a very big presence here. the sun in that blue schuyler's telling you about it's gonna be right up there they're are around three 13 when totality starts, they're going to have it for about four minutes here. the last time cleveland had a total eclipse, 1806, the next time after this time you're going to have to wait a bit 420 years. so get your seats early. it's going to be a gorgeous day cleveland is ready for what they're calling the blackout to remember back to you about 400 years. yeah. that's a while

from now. okay. let's check in with harry in niagara niagara falls, which obviously is such a beautiful place. a lot of people love to go. and jessie niagara falls, but now they get the bonus of this as well. what's the energy like where you are >> i got to tell you. i am decked out officially mi gear. i got the niagara falls cap over here we've got the niagara falls solar eclipse shirt over here. we're rock and ready to go, jessica, look at the beautiful falls that we have over there. my goodness, gracious. look at that. this is perhaps the best place we could possibly watch the eclipse that sun, where it is right now, it's going to be a little bit further to the left when we have the eclipse tomorrow afternoon, but it's going to basically be in that position. there are loads of people who are for coming out. we are seeing more and more people. you'll look at these lines. we see a steady stream of folks who are coming down. it's much more packed than where we were just a few days ago when the weather was an all honesty just really freezing the weather has

really turned around we have had sunny skies over the last few days tomorrow though is the big question mark. well, the sun actually remain out. that is a big question mark. what i will say it was. i was looking at the latest data. what i'm hoping for is we got a little micro-climate over niagara falls and the sun keeps it, but we'll just have to wait and see jessica hi, we're going to cross our fingers, but yeah, it the conditions have improved vastly from the last time we saw you there. >> all right. harry enten and miguel marquez are thanks to both of you. >> there is this >> question about what kind of impact the solar eclipse is going to have on pets and other animals because obviously it's going to be a really wild occurrence in that they're not gonna understand what's going on. dr. robert shoemaker is the president and ceo of the indianapolis zoo, and he's joining us now. great to have you here with us. why would you it's great to have you. why would an eclipse send animals on the fritz? so to say, and what? what are you think we're gonna see from them in terms of their behavior

>> we are hearing lots of people predicting anxiety disorientation problems i honestly don't agree with that. i think most of the animals we know certainly are animals here at the zoo and indian apple they're very well-adjusted animals, great social groups, normal behavior. i believe they're going to take this in stride. it's going to be a day where things start to get a little bit dark early, that might be a little surprising. and if they're animals that head indoors at night, they'll probably be heading in died when things start to get dark. and it will be a little surprising when it gets light again, very, very quickly. so i think there might be a little bit of surprise, but the people that are expecting anxiety or drama, or it's on not, not really what i'm expecting. >> it sounds more like what you're saying is these animals because obviously they're not talking are getting their cues

from the daylight. and when the sun goes down, when the sunrises and that's what might be a bit disrupted. they might think it's time to go to sleep or wake up when it's the opposite i think you've summarized it perfectly for the animals we have to take our from the sun it's going to be a little bit of a surprising de, where the de is going to seem very, very short. and the day's ending early. and then it's going to reverse. so that's gonna be a little bit of a surprise for them, but i'm certainly not i'm certainly not predicting any big challenges or any big problems for the animals, certainly some changes in behavior. and you're seeing lots of lots of great footage of animals here. now just to be clear, none of that's the indianapolis zoo. so it didn't want people coming here expecting those particular animals. that's not us >> but i what >> i would tell you, i think it's going to be a very interesting de were we are already having many people flow into the city is going to be huge day for the city. hotels

are full as you heard the weather prediction is perfect. so it's going to be a great day. we're going to have lots and lots and lots of visitors here at the zoom. we love that, and it's great. we're gonna have lots and lots of people in the city. so should be absolutely fantastic. >> well, that is great news. and one more question i want to ask you before we let you go for people out there who have dogs at home or cats it sounds like based on what you're saying, they shouldn't expect any atypical behavior from them. it's also worth noting the actual darkness in totality will be for short amount of time yeah, here's what i think for people that are worried about their pets if their pets or seeming anxious, it's probably because the people are anxious. so the pets or masters at reading the signals that the people in their lives, important people in their lives are giving off. >> the best >> thing you can do is relax become enjoy it, go outside and watch it and have a wonderful experience while you're outside, even if you're not in

the path of totality. here's a great thing that you probably notice listen carefully. you are here all the burbs stops singing so as it starts to get dark, you're suddenly going to hear all the birds expecting are reacting as if it's late at night. that's the one thing that's probably going to be pretty notable as you're going to see, you're going to hear birds acting like it's the middle of the night. and then as the sun comes back, those bird songs are going to slowly going to continue again. that's one of the things that i think we probably can count on. but again, the animals are very bright, very practical, very good at reading the signals around them. and that would be a very normal behavior for birds when it starts to get dark >> that is fascinating. i'll keep that one in mind. aren't a good tip from dr. robert shoemaker, the head of the indianapolis zoo, have a great day tomorrow. thanks so much. >> thanks jessica, appreciate you >> and be sure to catch seen in special coverage of the eclipse across america. it starts monday at 1:00 p.m. eastern. you can also stream it on mac we'll be right back
