5:00 a.m. in gaza as we continue our coverage of the war in israel day 28 on america's late news, fox news at night. and we are now getting word that is rally defense forces have surrounded gaza city but it comes as president biden is now calling for a humanitarian pause in the fighting and many believe that's simply a different way of saying ceasefire. one us publication says that maga and christian nationalism are bigger threats to america than hamas. we have team fox coverage. lucas tomlinson in tel aviv, steve harrigan in northern israel. but we begin here in the u.s. where the war in israel has customs and border protections sounding the alarm on just how easy it is for terrorists to just walk across our southern border. bill melugin is live with calls to shut down the border all together. >> reporter: as we speak we have a new massive caravan headed to the u.s. border and now some county leaders in san diego are calling for the border to be closed amid terror concerns. jim desmond and several other san diego republicans made the call after the leaked bulletin from the san diego office warned personnel to be on the lookout for terrorists from hamas and hezbollah that could potentially be trying to cross our southern border. in the meantime, a new migrant caravan of at least 5,000 migrants is making its way through mexico heading north to the u.s. border. as border numbers continue to be draw jeong. fiscal year 2023 set the all-time record with over 2.4 million migrant encounters at the southern border. and dhs confirms there were over 600,000 known gotta ways at the border in fiscal year 2023. this morning the mayors of several democrat sanctuary cities met with white house officials and are asking the biden administration to give them $5 billion in taxpayer funds to help deal with the surge of migrant arrivals in their respective cities. they say they're overwhelmed and caring for the migrants is a burden on their city budgets and local taxpayers. >> we believe the congress and the president are going to decide what they want the entrance policies to be. our belief is whatever entrance policy they decide on that entrance policy should come with the ability to work when you had arrive. >> reporter: another concerning development, ice kenr confirms in late october they arrested an african terrorism suspect in new york city who was released by border patrol after he was caught crossing the board illegally in arizona two weeks prior. it took the feds a full week after his relief to find out he was wanted for terroristic activities and that does not inspire a lot of confidence as to who's coming to our country right now. >> trace: because that is one and who knows how many more there are. bill thank you with us. fox news contributor sara carter. just on bill's point sarah, you look at the known got-aways. put this up on the screen here talking the u.s. southern border just in october 23,000, right? just since october 1st. 1.5 million since biden took office. the known got-aways, right? who knows what else is out there and that's the question is, you know, as bill was saying, you know, oh, this terrorist was roaming the country for two weeks, sarah. >> reporter: well, absolutely trace, and i want to put this into perspective. bill talked about the over two million that we know of, those encounters at the southern border. if you look at the nation as a whole, there were literally over three million encounters by border patrol with illegal aliens in the country. that is 400% higher than president trump's last year in office where it was over 600,000, the majority of which during that time were returned home because we ended catch and release for the most part and that was in 2020. and when you think about terrorism, think about it this way. it took over two years, they believe, for hamas to plan the attack in israel. so hamas, along with iran, which was guiding hamas using hamas as a proxy to target israel, what we're looking at the border just right now. so since president biden came into office more than 269 people connected to terrorism, those that pinned on the terrorist screening center or for some reason pinged on interpoll and you brought up the got-aways. >> trace: let me stop you there. >> that's over two million. >> trace: i want to stop there you because i want to put that on the screen to give our audience, more than 269 it's 281 and look at the numbers there. in the four years before biden took office, there were 11 on the terrorism watch list. in the three years since, there have been 282, 18 in just september alone. i apologize, sarah, keep talking. >> no, absolutely. i'm really grateful that you brought those up because it shows the danger that we are in. border security is about national security trace. and we have put ourselves in a very dangerous predicament. a lot of it is complacency, a lot of people think it's not going to happen here. we saw that in israel that idea of complacency. i was there two months ago and i could not believe the attack that took place in israel. then i think about the united states, i think about what's happening right now in the u.s. if they planned for two years to target israel, imagine what iran or terror networks like al qaeda, isis, hamas, hezbollah, have planned here in the u.s. no doubt according to intelligence sources that i have a spoken to that they're probably here. that there's sleeper cells here, that there are terrorists here in the united states right now. and that's terrifying. >> trace: sara carter great to have you on as always. thank you we appreciate it. now to our team of correspond 90s the middle east as we learn israelis has surrounded gaza and lucas is with us with the latest. >> reporter: israel's top general says not only his forces have surrounded gaza city he has his forces entered gaza city and another division attacking from the east has reached the sea severing the palestinian territory from the two. >> idf fighters have been operating in gaza city for the past few days encircling it from several directions deepening the entrance and we are also deepening the achievements. >> reporter: now, that's an israeli ma cava tank firing an explosive round after a series of assaults, israeli force have been fighting continuously in gaza for i week, three divisions con surgeing from three different directions, moving slowly, deliberately we're told clearing not only homes and buildings on the ground but the tunnels underneath the ground as well and punishing air strikes continue tisraeli air force says they have now destroyed 12,000 targets inside gaza. israeli are dropping bombs not just on gaza but the west bank lebanon and syria, too. and for the first time in history an israeli f-35 shot down a cruise missile fired from yemen by iranian backed proxy fighters one of the reason they moved warships to the red sea to help protect the jewish states southern flank. once again air alone defense system was used to shoot down a ballistic missile fired from yemen stressed lucas live in tel aviv lucas shaw >> a russian paramilitary group is planning to a defense system in lebanon where there are major concerns about a second front in this war. steve harrigan is live in northern israel with the latest on this. steve, what are you hearing? >> reporter: trace, more fighting today across the border once again it was hezbollah launching rockets into northern israel. at least 16 different spots hit. the town hit by at least 12 rockets, no reports on casualties there. israeli officials have warned hezbollah again and again if they do open up a full-scale second front in this war, retaliation will be devastating. today a biden administration official said he considered a major second front by hezbollah unlikely. >> we were concerned about continued attacks on israeli forces there in the north as are the israelis. but i don't believe we've seen any indication yet specifically that hezbollah is ready to go in full force. so we'll see what he has to say. >> reporter: we could get a better idea of hezbollah's plans for the future on friday. the hezbollah leader, hassan nahs ra a is expected to give an address on what they plan to do. back to you. >> trace: steve harrigan live in northern israel. steve thank you. the white house appears to be pushing for a humanitarian pause long enough for foreign nationals to get out and for i had to get in but many believe a pause is simply another term for a ceasefire t senior national correspondent kevin corke is live in dc with more on this. kevin good evening. >> reporter: good evening trace. critics argue the bows is performing a bit of verbal jew jut situate when it comes to what they mean by the word pause. because, by any reasonable standard, sacred i cans, it sounds an awful lot like ceasefire and yet here we are. on the one hand the president says there should be a quote, pause, in the fighting in gaza to get the hostages out. but the nsc, that's the national security council, says he's not talking about a ceasefire. >> right now is not the time for a general ceasefire. it is, however, the time to consider pausess in the fighting the. >> so pauses do not help hamas? >> a temporary pause that's localized that would allow us to get aid in and to get our people out is a good thing for the people of gaza. it's a good thing for the americans that are being held hostage. >> reporter: a view obviously not held by many in israel itself. in the meantime mr. biden's under increasing pressure from far left members of his own party to pause the shelling in gaza. however some foreign policy experts like former secretary of state mike pompeo, for instance, they're calling the white house's strategy flat-out dangerous. >> now thissey the term pause, that is deeply dangerous to those very hostages. it's bad for the israeli effort to ultimately wipe hamas off the map and sends a signal to the entire world that you frankly don't understand what took place on october 7th. >> reporter: the white house, for its part, insists that a brief cessation of military operations would allow food water and other aid to reach gaza civilians and perhaps even help with the release of more hostages, trace. >> trace: kevin corke live for us in dc. thank you >> let's bring in aaron cohen special ops veteran and specializing in training in law enforcement. i want to go back to steve harrigan and this concept that we have nasrala speaking in ten hours if my clock is right, he is speaking. lot of concern in the middle east, john kirby doesn't share that concern, a lot of concern he might call for war on israel. what would that do to the scenario over there? >> it's not going to change anything with israel's tactical orangeses right now i will a tell you trace. israel's strength in the heart and meet of israel's capabilities lies in preemptive striking and that's what they're doing system at click. they have five fronts, hamas in the front tas you mentioned gaza city is surrounded, israeli seals have also blocked the sea on the far west end of gaza. special operation troops clearing all of those structures before those infantry units come in. hezbollah on the north, we've got drones actively taking out clusters of terrorists in the north and the southern region of lebanon. you have the houthiss that are firing actively engaging the israelis right now. so they've already declared war whether it's been overt or covert. those missiles are coming into israel. so israel doesn't have the luxury of the would bes, could bes and maybes and that's the mindset of defending the state. and so aggression, a determination and continuous bombardment both on the ground, both in the air, via drones, it's nonstop with israel trace. >> trace: you talk about continued bombardment. it's interesting because i want to play more sound from john kirby talking about the humanitarian pause. that's what they call it. watch. >> do we advocate pauses by both sides here? temporary, localized, to be able to get americans out to be able to get aid in? you betcha we do. that doesn't mean we're calling for a general ceasefire. >> trace: a lot of people think they are calling for a general ceasefire. when you stop firing, you stop firing that's sees firing. >> the president's playing some games right now, trying to play a little slip and dip with the wording to get a ceasefire in there but based on my experience and what i'm hearing in israel, look, there's a combat rhythm in effect and it's not going to be broken. the only thing that is going to be broken is hamas. the sooner hamas is destroyed, the sooner the palestinians will not have to deal with being stuck in gaza where they can't get into jordan because king jordan has kept the doors closed, this he kept the back door dmroefd egypt, hezbollah wants to dust it up, israel has no problem they have tons of experience in the southern lebanese downs they know them better than the southern lebanese and israel as i've said to you on multiple occasions has the ability to get to every one of these people and i don't think israel's going to break their combat rhythm. they cannot, for the future of the resolution of the jewish state, they have to keep moving. they're in a rhythm. supplies will get moved up. if we stop. hezbollah will be able to continue supplying its -- it cannot stop at this point right now. >> trace: you talk about that rhythm, how important is it that the israeli defense forces have gaza surrounded? got about 30 seconds. >> gaza surrounded is the key. this is what we call translated a pressure cooker and what's allowing israel to do is to be able to clear those structures, those densely built up areas we discussed using what's called slow and deliberate clearings. those are the special operations forces that momentum can't stop. once those structures are cleared the leading infantry units can come in and the pressure continues to close in order to be able to get over those tunnels with special machinery so that they can pinpoint the location of the tunnels and get back to those hostages. that's the operational tone right now. >> trace: great stuff. aaron cohen, thank you very much. >> appreciate jew students at columbia university walked out of class taught by hillary clinton today to protest what they call school's shaming of pro plain demonstrators. marianne rafferty live with the details on this. >> we'll tell but the columbia students in just a moment but first many jewish students on american campuses say they simply do not feel safe. campuses cancelled friday on cornell university due to quote extraordinary stress. a 21 year old student remains in custody accused of threatening the school's jewish community. according to the cornell daily sun students are encouraged to reflect on how they can nurture a mutually supportive community. >> it is bad enough when people say hateful horrible things. when they translate it into action, it can become criminal and moments like this just bring out people's darker instincts. and so the hard job is to try to balance what the law requires us to do and what common decency calls on us to do. >> reporter: george mason university's vice-president that school is investigating after posters of hamas hostages were torn down on the campus t student calledd the posters propaganda but the school offered a straight forward rebuke and property destruction is not protected speed and is a code of conduct violation. several schools like yale prohibit intimidation but many students say the threats are not being reigned in. students on columbia's campus gave former secretary of state hillary clinton the cold shoulder walking out of a class she sutures too muches at the university for a sit in. they shamed them after truck displayed the faces of anti israel protesters with the words columbia a's leading anti-semites. they also signed a statement about the war that blames the quote israeli extremist government. according to new york times, students are demanding legal support and a commitment to privacy. columbia has so far not commented on this incident. trace. >> trace: it's unbelievable maryanne thank you let's bring in julie hamill from the alliance of county parents and shaw school board chino valley school district. thank you. to pick up on maryanne's story this is amazing the same students now demanding safety and privacy signed this statement, put this up on the screen quoting here, the weight of responsibility for the war and casualties undeniably lies with the israeli extremist government. it's find hamas was hacking up babies but they don't feel safe at that school julie. it's one of those things you're like really? >> right we're living in the upside down. just today i saw the university of arizona cancelled classes because the students might feel unsafe because charlie kirk was coming to speak on campus. meanwhile, we're seeing people who are calling for violence and supporting terrorist actions throughout america. i don't understand what's hamming. >> trace: it's one more example of we need a safe space but the israeli who were -- you know, the babies beheaded over there? that was all part of the concept. i want to put this up. this is an nyu student, her name isabella ingar watch what she says. >> being a jew at nyu right now is scary. we are seeing an uptick in anti israel protests that are turning anti-semitic. there are signs that read global iced the infatata which is an historical call for the extermination of jews and violence against jews. >> trace: i covered the second intake fad a do they even know what they're asking for? they clearly don't. >> that's what's really sad they're chanting and saying things like kill -- in essence it means kill the jews. >> trace: right. >> and what really it shows us is how brain washed our younger generation is and that starts at a younger age through our educational system. it's clear we have lawlessness and this is part of it. the kids are part of the plan to take over and the brain wash our kids. you have no -- you don't even have them being held responsible. >> trace: no. >> we see that here in california. we are passing laws that don't even keep kids responsible and that's what it's doing promoting hate and we're seeing the consequence of that. >> trace: lot of that going around, vice-president kamala harris said this. >> we have seen an uptick in anti palestinian anti arab anti-semitic and islamophobic incidents across america. this strategy will be a comprehensive and detailed plan to protect muslims and those perceived to be muslim from hate, bigotry and violence. >> trace: if you didn't listen closely i want to kind of re-do this a little bit for you. she said anti palestinian, anti-semitic and islamophobic and then she said a detailed plan to protect muslims and those perceived to be the muslim from hate bigotry and violence. we don't have a wave in this country right now of muslim violence. we have a wave of anti-semitism going on in this country right now, and yet there's this different focus in different parts of the political spectrum. >> it doesn't make any sense. and if i can go back to nyu i just was on the phone with a friend an alum from nyu who has been begging their dei department to add a dwoigs protect the jewish children and to advocate for them and they won't get back to her. >> trace: right. >> so that's where we are in terms of protecting jewish people in our country. >> trace: yeah. i mean, i know you're involved in high schools sonja, there's high schools now in southern california, high schools all over the country that are saying hold on now. before our students apply to your college, are jewish students applying to your college? you need to make sure there's a safety plan in place. here's a george mason student confronting someone who's tearing down the posters of hostages. watch. >> why do you feel like that's acceptable? these people are kidnapped. excuse me i put that flyer up. i would like it back. why, why do you think this is acceptable? these people are kidnapped. >> trace: people are kidnapped and yet they do it. i have about 30 seconds sonya. >> it's slotly horrifying that this is what our children are doing. we should not --. >> trace: so nonchalantly. >> and that is exact will i what's pushed lure our educational system again i'll go back to that the fact we have little kids promoting hate and terrorism and they are part of it is a big huge problem we need to focus on locally and then obviously throughout our state to make sure this does not happen. we need to protect all children especially our jewish children that they're feeling this hate right now. >> trace: sonja julie thank you both >> breaking tonight a verdict for sam bankman-fried what comes next after his fraud trial and less than three hours from now secretary of state antony blinken will land in tel aviv. we are back on the ground in israel with our war correspondents, alex hogan jonathan hunt are next. hey, grab more delectables. you know, that lickable cat treat?

>> reporter: well top of the secretary of state's agenda seems to be this so-called pause in the fighting to get hostages out, the u.s. hopes, and to get more humanitarian aid into gaza. for the israelis, are they going to stop fighting in one localized area if some hostages are about to come out of one particular tunnel? of course they are. are they firing on the raffa crossing where the humanitarian aid comes in right now? no, they are not. but they will not go for these wider pauses, trace, simply because they believe that any minute, any hour that they stop putting the pressure on hamas is a chance for hamas to reorganize. then secretary of state blinken has to worry about the regional conflict that's why he's meeting the jordanian foreign minister and everybody is watching north in lebanon where the she can leader is about to make a statement in hours time that could be key in what happens next in terms of regional conflict trace. >> trace: very true and also talk about the 2-state solution. again here's what antony blinken said about that, jonathan, today. watch. >> i expect you'll see a focus there and particularly how we can get over time two states for two people which in our judgment remains the best or perhaps the only for the best israeli and palestinians the state they're entitled. >> trace: you talk to historians and military experts they think the 2-state solution is unlikely at best jonathan. what do you think? >> there's a lot of talk about the 2-state solution at that time white house and at the state department. i'll tell you this, trace. there is almost no talk about it right now in israel. even those who i've known here for more than two decades who have always said yes, we have to move to ultimately towards a 2-state solution say now is not the time to talk about that. we have no real partners to talk about a 2-state solution with. this is about destroying hamas and the entire focus has to be on that right now trace. >> trace: you have to have willing partner, exactly right. jonathan hunt live for us in jerusalem. jonathan thank you. bring in new york times best selling author and editor of all israel news. joe rosenberg great to have you on the show again. i want to get your take, i have other stuff to talk to you about, you're over there, tha h san nasrallah is about to speak is there concern he is going to fire more rockets into israel. >> a concern is an understatement. the military is on high a late. shake hassan nasrallah the head of hezbollah in lebanon has been upping the anti including an increased missile attack in the last few hours. so all israel is on stand-by. i would say there is fear. on the other hand we're ready for it. but nasrallah has 150,000 missiles aimed at our head. if he starts to really declare full-on war this thing is going to go apocalyptic. >> trace: it really is going to be scary. i want to talk about the bias against israel in the media in some of these organizations. here's abby philip on cnn saying this. watch. >> at what point does american deference to israel and its war actions send a message to the wider world one that potentially indefinite civilian casualties are simply a part of war. >> trace: it's kind of crazy. on msnbc you have joy reid, i'm not shower if you know who that is, even if hamas is using human shields that is real can't attack them because it's a war crime. so there is a lot of bias against israel. >> it's not bias actually. i mean, it is. but it's anti-semitism. >> trace: right. >> there's a double standard here. imagine -- how have we gotten to a situation where 1400 of our israeli civilians were butchered, heads cut off, babies put alive into ovens and baked and killed, people shot in the face, their tours os mutilateed and then the world hates us and considers us the monsters? like this is off the charts. we haven't seen this type of anti-semitism since the end of, you know, world war ii and the holocaust. i mean, this is crazy. and yet the media is buying into it. >> trace: right. >> and giving voice to people who hate us, even though we're the ones under attack. the world has gone completely crazy. >> trace: but it's this kind of narrative, joel, that pushes the biden administration to call for things like humanitarian pauses, aka ceasefires. >> well, look, we're providing for providing humanitarian relief. it's amazing, how can there still be 700,000 palestinians in northern gaza? we've been saying for a month, get to the south. and we are providing a hundred trucks a day and more of supplies of food and water and medical supplies. don't stay in the north. you don't want to die or you're not hamas, move south. and i also want to say on this whole thing of blinken, bless his heart, and the 2-state solution. hamas doesn't want a 2-state solution. they want a final solution, and blinken needs to stop giving aid and comfort. you know, biden has just threatened to veto the israel aid that the house of representatives has just passed. look, what are we talking about? >> trace: i got you. >> vetoes aid to us right now. >> trace: got to go. joel great to have you on. thank you, stay safe. still to come, the verdict is in, we'll have the latest on the case against crypto mogul sam bankman-fried's. kelly o'grady has been covering the trial she'll join us next. and new numbers show how worried americans are about prejudice against jewish people and muslims next. ask about vraylar. because you are greater than your bipolar 1, and you can help take control of your symptoms - with vraylar. some medicines only treat the lows or highs. vraylar treats depressive, acute manic, and mixed episodes of bipolar 1 in adults. proven, full-spectrum relief for all bipolar 1 symptoms. and in vraylar clinical studies, most saw no substantial impact on weight. elderly dementia patients have increased risk of death or stroke. call your doctor about unusual changes in behavior or suicidal thoughts. antidepressants can increase these in children and young adults. report fever, stiff muscles or confusion which may mean a life-threatening reaction, or uncontrollable muscle movements which may be permanent. high blood sugar, which can lead to coma or death, weight gain and high cholesterol may occur. movement dysfunction and restlessness are common side effects. sleepiness and stomach issues are also common. side effects may not appear for several weeks. ask about vraylar and learn how abbvie could help you save. my frequent heartburn had me taking antacid after antacid all day long but with prilosec otc just one pill a day blocks heartburn for a full 24 hours. for one and done heartburn relief, prilosec otc. one pill a day, 24 hours, zero heartburn. >> trace: new tonight, a new york jury found surveillance video have sack bankman-fried guilty on all charges and attorneys for the crypto surgeon situate are figuring out what they are going to do next. kelly o'grady with what they are going to do and why the jury came back so fast. that's the question why so fast. >> reporter: good evening to you trace. all of us were pretty shocked, took them roughly four hours to come back with a verdict on seven very complicated financial fraud charges. just for some context, bernie madoff, it took them four days to convict him. sbf four hours. trace i'll tell you what i think the difference was. it was the fact that he testified, right? that was a hail mary moment but legal experts tell me this type of case it comes down to credibility and he made himself non-credible when he got up there and he couldn't answer questions trace. >> trace: and what about evidence, kelly? i mean, what do you think factored into the jury's decision here? >> so beyond the witness testimony from his co-conspirators that have pled guilty to fraud it was two things trace for me, it was google met a data which is essentially a digital finger principled. showed he opened and seen fraudulent balance sheets that he told carol to put together and second thing his own words he was out there giving media videos tweeting customer assets were fine and they proved he knew it wasn't. that hurt him. >> trace: finally his sentencing is set for march kelly of next year facing what like a hundred years plus in jail? what are the next steps for his legal team? >> that's right trace, 110 years. so of course right off the bat they're going to file an appeal. they've already indicated that. but next steps really, we're going to see that sentencing march 28th but there's also a march trial with more charges. the government has not indicated whether they are going to go through with that. but just one note. i will say everyone's wondering, well, do the customers get their money back. i do have some good news, there's a separate bankruptcy process that's actually working quite well and customers are expected to get the majority of their money back so at least some light at the end of the tunnel on that side. >> trace: that is good news. kelly o'grady live in new york. meantime a new quinnipiac poll shows 75% of voters think prejudice against jewish people in the united states is a serious problem. the highest percentage since the question was first asked back in 2017. the poll also showing that 7 in 10 voters think prejudice against muslim people is also a serious problem. lee carter president and parreder as maslanski and partners. we'll talk about the pole in a second but this is what struck me, the headline reads the following quoting maga and christian nationalism bigger threat to america than hamas could ever be. it's no longer they're just deplorables lee now they're worse than hamas. >> i think that that kind of rhetoric, that kind of headline, that kind of clickbait is so incredibly dangerous. we're talking about an oppressive regime whose sole mission is to exterminate jews. they are stated mission, not seoul mission. stated mission is to exterminate jews and to compare them to maga republicans in the con ex the of the new speaker of the house and 8 republicans causing disruption in the republican party is absolutely a disgrace and does not -- it doesn't even do justice to the issues we're talking about. >> amazing, foxnews.com writes the following quoting here, minnesota muslim leaders vow to abandon biden over his israel support. anger is not going to go away and i want to couple that with this because michigan representative rashida talib also said this. >> the previous president wanted to ban us and probably put us in concentration camps. this one wants us just to die. that's how it feels. >> trace: i mean it feels like all of this is kind of playing into this humanitarian pause the administration keeps looking for. >> well, i mean, today the vice-president announced that she has a policy that we're going to talking about protecting the islamic people when really when we look at the issues that are at hand right now what just happeneded to the jewish people in israel is absolutely atrocious but when you look at -- some take is the cakes came out from the anti defamation lead a thousand % increase in violent messages on line since october 7th that meant an israel and the jews. there's a 400% increase in crime, anti-semitic crime since october 7th. we've got a real issue here. this isn't about morale equivalence, this isn't about -- we have the right to condemn what is wrong, to call out what is wrong. what is happening here is atrocious and i just cannot believe that's what's happening in our country at this moment. >> trace: in that same speech the vice-president talked about anti-semitism, one time she talked about anti muslim sentiment five times. finally the prejudice poll we talked about at the top, 75% of voters think that prejudice against jewish people in the u.s. is a serious problem. we can put that poll up now, the highest since quinnipiac started keeping these and asking this question. any surprise there at all lee? >> i'm glad to see there's awareness of the issue because when you look at the amount of anti-semitic crime jewish people make up 2% of the american population yet 60% of the hate crime so it is a about time the american people caught up to the fact that anti-semitism is a real problem and probably one of the biggest forms of racism we're doing dealing with in our country right now so i'm glad to see people are more aware surprised more people aren't aware 75% doesn't seem enough in this moment. when you fwhi the support for ukraine right after the aftermath of russia attacking it, about 90% people supports ukraine while only 41% supported israel in the days after. there's a real big difference. the only thing you can call on that is anti-semitism and needs to be dealt with. >> trace: lee carter great to see you as always thank you. >> thank you. >> trace: 13 minutes to sunrise in israel as forces surround gaza city. our war correspondents on the ground give us their final thoughts next. we all know that words have power. they set things in motion and make us happy or sad. but there's one word that stands out, because when people say it, lives are changed. it's not a big word. it's itsy bitsy. it's only three little letters. but when you say it, the life of a kid like me can be changed. so what is this special word?

what can you tell us about this? >> trace, when you mention that, i just said, uh-oh, russia's going to give an anti air defense system to hezbollah in lebanon? i mean, no one goes into a war thinking it's going to last 19 years like afghanistan. the one reason they do go long is because people help your enemy. because they want to bleed you. >> trace: yeah. steve thank you. alex, what are us officials saying about protecting civilians in gaza? >> well, almost a quarter of u.s. american citizens who are in gaza who want to leave have been able to do so but the u.s. is still stressing that it wants to protect all civilians, u.s. secretary of state antony blinken who will be here in several hours says he's going to lay out concrete steps to minimize harm. >> trace: jonathan i hear the word is you have good news, maybe a special moment to share with us. >> yeah, trace it's important when you're covering war to always look for and find those moments that restore your faith to some extent in humanity. we had one such moment today. there's a spot, a secret spot in the old city that overlooks the western wall in the dome of the rock. i love to take people there. we went there today and we found this, an idf soldier had set up that area to propose to his girlfriend. it was a beautiful moment. she said yes, by the way. we all cheered and we, of course, wish them a lifetime of happiness and perhaps, most importantly, a lifetime of peace trace. >> trace: yeah, applause for them. lucas before the war nearly half a million people lived in gaza city now israeli forces surround it. what more do you know about that? >> trace, the top israeli general says israeli forces have entered gaza city. the battle of mosa took nine months a city about four times the size of gaza city, just an idea of what the israeli forces are thinking. any of the hamas fighters that are still inside the city are battle hardened and going to fight until the end. >> trace: we've heard that many times they will fight until the endment kevin biden's war in gas a have led democrats to become divided we've seen it again and again. is this going to put a strain on the election. >> manifestly so i think you are looking at probably the biggest threat to a reelection. it doesn't really matter who the standard bearer is, democrats tend to fall in line. but this divide over what's happening with israel and gaza specifically is a major political threat to the party moving forward. >> trace: yeah. and we have seen these progressives saying that a lot of them will not vote for president biden. kevin thank you. bill today we found out border patrol unknowingly released an african terrorism suspect into the u.s. you talked about this earlier what do you know. >> listen to the time line, october 3rd border patrol arrests an illegal from africa crosses into arizona they release him into the u.s. with a future court day. one week later hsi gets notified by the fbi's counter terrorism division that this guy they released is wanted in senegal for terrorism. so hsi cause ice and says you have to go get this guy. ice goes and arrests him one week later on october 17th. he was in new york city. so trace this means this guy was roaming around in america two weeks despite being a wanted ter joist bill thank you. thanks for watching america's late news, fox news at night. i'm trace gallagher in los angeles. see you back here. so i can feel and see that my lines have gotten deeper just from a year out in the sun. i'm still marie and i got botox® cosmetic. i did not want a dramatic change. i wanted something subtle. and i'm really, really happy with the results. it's still me, but with fewer lines. botox® cosmetic is fda approved to temporarily make frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead lines look better. the effects of botox® cosmetic may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness may be a sign of a life-threatening condition. do not receive botox® cosmetic if you have a skin infection. side effects may include allergic reactions, injection site pain, headache, eyebrow, eyelid drooping, and eyelid swelling. tell your doctor about your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, and medications, including botulinum toxins as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. see for yourself at botoxcosmetic.com. skin-carving next level hydration?
