Im John Berman with Kate Baldwin and sarah sidner. This is Cnn News central breaking overnight. Israel intensifying airstrikes on hezbollah in lebanon, sparking major concerns the conflict could spiral into a wider regional war. Over 500 people have been killed in the strike so far. In whats being described as the deadliest day in lebanon in nearly two decades, has been firing back overnight, launching more than 100 rockets from Southern Lebanon into Northern Israel so far, no one has been injured from those rockets. All of this coming as President Biden prepares to it the Rest World leaders on the global stage at the United Nations, just hours from now, cnn international diplomatic editor Nic Robertson is in Tel Aviv. Nic, a Ground Invasion would spell out War Has israeli prime Minister Netanyahu ruled that out at this point . His Idf Spokesman was precisely all that question. And he didnt rule it out. And neither has the prime Minister Rule that out for the israeli government. It does seem that all options are on the table when it comes to a ground incursion, what theyre talking about they say is whatever it takes to allow those 60 plus thousand israelis to get back to their homes closed for northern border. And the way that that has been spelled out is Hezbollah Hasta pulled back from the border regions are strikes that israel has had today into lebanon. There has been two waves of them, airstrikes deep into the north of lebanon in the Bekaa Valley Israel today some of those landings as far as sort of 30 miles inside israel, some closer to the border, fires sparked and some areas are one man when a miss ill hit a road got moderate shrapnel injuries and was evacuated to a hospital here according to men but by and large there is no significant toll on the israeli Civilian Population across the border and lebanon, as you say, 558. Now, people killed since yesterday, and we understand that more than 90, uh, women and 50 of them children the tension remains extremely high. There are regular now sirens sounding in the north of israel along, along the border and towns even deeper into the country all right, so what are you learning about the u. S. Militarys response to all of this and whats been happening in on the border with Israel And Lebanon diplomacy. The focus that were hearing from lebanese officials is that there is still active diplomacy underway. We know that u. S. Is involved. The french are involved other nations are involved. But when it comes to troop deployment, what Hr Understanding from us officials that they are sending a small number of us troops into the region because of an abundance of caution and because of the upscale of tensions at the moment. But what theyre not saying, what officials arent saying is precisely how many troops they are, what . Soda troops they might be, what theyre capable of or importantly, where theyre going. But clearly this represents President Biden on all that is happening there in the Middle East. Nic robertson. Thank you so much. Appreciate your reporting there from Tel Aviv for us. Yeah. And President Bidens is preparing to speak to World Leaders this morning. His final address to the United Nations general assembly. And this dangerous moment in the Middle East likely to overshadow most other topics that are going to be coming up during this gathering this time around. Cnns kayla tao, she is out front at the United Nations for us in New York first and foremost, how how is the escalation in the Middle East impacting events in New York . Okay. Senior administration officials acknowledged that the escalation in the Middle East is going to be front and center for World Leaders in their discussions both on the sidelines of the assembly here in New York, but also in the formal remarks to the forum throughout the course of the week i see senior officials say that these discussions are going to be focused on stabilizing the situation with President Biden being briefed around the clock and trying to present a further urgency for the need for peace in the region throughout the course of the week, we are going to hear from the leaders of qatar and a run there speaking today. But then later in the week on thursday, were expecting to hear from the palestinian president as well as israeli Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu. And so the focus is really on what they plan to say about this situation as it stands on thursday and what they see as any potential for a ceasefire that the u. S administration has been working so hard behind the scenes to try to get in place, but it just underscores how much has changed since President Biden addressed this assembly, this time last year, then the focus was really on rallying World Leaders around coming to Ukraines Defenses and trying to shore up support here at home for a massive Funding Package for Ukraines Defense and well, President Zelenskyy is expected to address the un Security Council Today and the assembly later in the week, us officials will say this. They say The World has changed and its gotten more difficult in many ways. But they say that is the reason why President Biden is continuing to place a focus on the partnerships that hes four to five in the last four years. And those partnerships are they say more important than ever . And kevin, what more are you hearing about President Bidens speech specifically today well, hes going to talk about what officials described as a very difficult year in the Middle East at the first, nearly full year of this raging war between hamas and israel. And so hes going to talk about that. Hes going to talk but the need for a ceasefire, but also peace efforts more broadly around The World with wars raging and more global flashpoints emerging by the day. But hes going to talk about coalitions and partnerships and allies and the importance of those relationships, not just in the Middle East. Also when it comes to nato, for Instance Ukraine and protecting and keeping stable relations in the indopacific as well. And so were expecting to hear him hit on some of these very familiar themes, but also use it more as a capstone addressed if cement his legacy on Foreign Policy to talk about what hes done over the last four years on climate policy. Hes taking a meeting later in the day. With a coalition of countries trying to fight fentanyl trafficking. All issues that hes worked on in the last four years as he tries to cement his place in history on The World stage kayla.

Turns out, i have enough money. I could just shut up but baptists 5 on Cnn Donald Trump is headed to georgia today after telling pennsylvanians early voting is stupid as he tried to get them to vote early. Cnns Alayna Treene is with us this morning, sometimes bestlaid plans alayna, dont dont work out quite so well. Thats right. It was quite a contradictory statement actually, from Donald Trump on this. He had first told pennsylvanias to get out and to avert vote early before calling it. Stupid. Look, i mean, the contradictory statements really, i think exemplify how Donald Trump feels on this issues he, this issue he often argues that he thinks early voting is vulnerable to potential election fraud. He argues it cost him the 2020 election. But at the same time republicans have increasingly embraced early voting. You have the rnc and people like Lara Trump on the rnc pushing for people to vote early, recognizing that it is a necessary tool to help them when in november. But i do want to just shift gears a bit, john, about what were going to see from Donald Trump today when he heads to georgia, this is actually Donald Trumps first visit to georgia in seven weeks, even as his team continues to argue that this is a state that is vital to him winning. This fall and the kyiv planned for him today is to talk about the the economy. Now we actually heard Donald Trump Briefly Talk about the economy yesterday. He met with farmers in pennsylvania and one of the key things we know that is key to his economic plan is tariffs. Now he has put, he has vowed to hiked tariffs very broadly imposed sweeping tariffs on different manufacturer first, if he becomes elected once again, but that comes even as a lot of people are concerned about, yeah, maybe this will help some domestic manufacturers, but it could hurt others. And we did hear one farmer when he was meeting with them at a roundtable in pennsylvania yesterday, asked him whether he was concerned about whether tariffs could potentially a affect affected people like John Dean here in manufacturers like john deere, he immediately turned that into Attack Line on harris where he argued that if she were to win, that you wouldnt have a farm anymore. I want you to take a listen to what he said with all of you as i speak, is energy in two ways. Number one, you want to be able to collect royalties and other things, or even have a Job And Energy thats very important to help your farm and the other thing is you got to keep the prices down. So were gonna do both and well do it fast to yolo be itll be largely taken care of within 12 months. I predict within 12 Months Itll be down to five or 50 and if they get in your Energy Costs are going through the roof, okay. I gotta go through the review, wont be you wont have a farm very long. I will tell you that now, john, that line there, you wont have a farm for very long. Ill tell you that. I mean, this is classic Donald Trump at some of that Fear Mongering we hear from him repeatedly, just like last week when he was speaking to jewish supporters in washington, dc and he warned that if they do not vote for him, that israel would not be country anymore, that it would cease to exist. So this is the same type of rhetoric we can expect, but i think looking ahead to Georgia One of the reasons Donald Trump is talking about the economy is because we actually just saw that polling from the New York times Sienna College Poll that showed Donald Trump has a slight edge over harris in georgia. They of course want to keep that, but one of the key reasons in that polling and then people voted for him was because they said that they believe that he could handle the economy better. So of course, that is a key message, really, the key message that Donald Trump wants to convey to voters as we look ahead to this final sprint, John Landed Treene for us in washington, alayna, thank you very much, sara.
