And welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states and all around the world. Im rosemary church, just ahead on Cnn Newsroom israel into a missile near Tel Aviv in the latest exchange between hezbollah militants in lebanon and the israeli military Ukraines President tells the un Security Council, russia can only be forced into peace as he prepares to lay out his Victory Plan to the u. S president and the u. S. Gulf coast braces for tropical Storm Helene with forecasters predicting it will be a major hurricane upon landfall later this week. This is Cnn Newsroom with Rosemarie Church you with us and we begin this hour in Tel Aviv where the israeli military says it has intercepted a single surface to Surface Missile launched by hezbollah marking the first time ever a missile fired by the Militant Group has reached close to the city says it was targeting the headquarters of Israels Intelligence Agency, mossad. There are no reports of damage or casualties the idf released this footage, which it claims shows a strike destroying the Missile Launch im sure that targeted Tel Aviv. Another dramatic video shows an israeli Air Strike on a town along the lebanese Crossborder Fighting between Israel And Hezbollah has increased over the past few days. Lebanese officials put the Death Toll in the country at well over 500. And cnns Paula Hancocks joins me now, live from Abu Dhabi so paula, what is the latest on this intercepted missiles from lebanon after sirens sounded in Tel Aviv happened earlier. This wednesday morning, and the israeli military has now confirmed that that is the closest to the city that has been targeted by lebanon. We heard from the israeli military spokesperson saying that it was a heaven be and long missile and we understand also that it was shot down by one of the Missile Defense systems. Israel has not the iron dome, which is the most widely used by the davids sling, which has a higher altitude in intercepting a missile so certainly this does appear as though it is somewhat of an escalation or at least a step ahead from what were seeing in hezbollah road. But recent days we have been seeing a lot of shortrange missiles. We had been seeing them targeting northern israel and in particular Military Installations what we have heard from hezbollah in their statement is that they were trying to target the Masad Headquarters near Tel Aviv saying that they were doing it in support of the people of gaza. And also in the defense of lebanon. So this certainly is something that is out of the he ordinary. The very fact that there was an Air Raid Siren in Tel Aviv and also that there was an airraid siren in nataliya thats just a little further north. Thats the first time theyve had a sirens since october 7, now we have heard from the hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in the past that if beirut was targeted then the israeli economic center would be targeted as well. Rosemary im paula, what impact have israels airstrikes on southern Lebanon Head on hezbollah so far. And of course, how likely is a Ground Incursion in the days ahead and how possible is an All Out War which is the big concern for everyone israeli military obviously wont be drawn on whether a Ground Offensive is imminent. Theyve certainly said that they have the plans in place. We heard from the chief of staff saying that the next phases are already planned. We did hear from yoav gallant, the defense minister, he was visiting with troops just in the north of israel as well. And he said that Hezbollah Today is different from the organization. We knew a week ago. So pointing out that hezbollah has been hit hard, saying that they have additional strikes prepared and that they have suffered a series of significant blows to their capabilities but we are still seeing these missiles coming over from hezbollah to israel. And of course, Thats Missile this morning, targeting close to Tel Aviv. So gallant also warned the troops that israel that hezbollah is still very determined to inflict damage and they need to be aware of that rose me. Alright, our thanks to Paula Hancocks for that. Appreciate it nominee, Donald Trump rolled out a series of economic proposals during a speech tuesday and savannah, Georgia Trump announced he would work with Georgias Governor to deepen the port of savannah. It also proposed higher tariffs and Tax Cuts to encourage companies to manufacture products here in the united states, the former president made a lot of promises that he says would bring about a quote, New American Industrialism The Deal that i will be offering to every major Company And Manufacturer on earth. I will give you the lowest taxes, the lowest Energy Costs and free access to the best and biggest market on the planet. But only if you make your product here in america, this new american industrialism will create millions and millions of jobs, massively raise wages for american workers and make the united states into a Manufacturing Powerhouse like it used to be many years ago will be able to build ships again, we will be able to build aeroplanes at a much higher level. Again, will you will become the World Leader in robotics and every other field the u. S. Auto industry, which has been decimated over many, many decades, will once again be the envy of the planet but economists have warned that raising tariffs will lead to higher prices for american consumers democratic president ial nominee Kamala Harris is promising that if she becomes president she would get rid of the Filibuster Delay Tactic in the senate in order to pass a Bill Codifying Abortion Rights that stance has cost her a potential endorsement from senator Joe Manchin, a former democrat, turned independent critics say some lawmakers have abused the Filibuster And Van did the senate from doing what the american public wants. But manchin and others say that You Filibuster forces the senate to reach consensus. Unlike the house, where legislation can be rammed through by a simple Majority Vote considering endorsing her change your mind, go happen. Youre not going to dorsal. Im not endorsing i think thats basically something that could destroy our country and my country is more important to me than Anyone Person or any one persons ideology meantime, harris is planning to visit the u. S. Mexican border while shes in arizona On Friday, according to a source familiar with the discussions, shes trying to narrow trumps lead in the polls on immigration. One of the main issues in this Years Election joining me now is jessica levinson, a Law Professor at loyola law school, and host of the passing judgment podcast. Appreciate you joining us good to be here. So a new cnn national poll shows a president ial race virtually tied with just six weeks to go to the election, 48 of likely voters support kamalaharris, 47 support Donald Trump. That is within the margin of error, of course, and represents the tightest race it modern history. But national polls of course, she had very little light on the outcome of elections like this. Its the Swing States that will decide this. What shifts are you seeing in those critical states . And what do you make of those latest Poll Numbers . Well, i think that what you said is the most important thing to think about national Poll Numbers, which is they really dont make much difference. And i actually just came from giving a speech to my old High School and i explained the Electoral College and how we really shouldnt focus on these national polls at all because it is rosemary exactly as you said, there are 50 different contests and thats how we determine who the winner of the president ial election in each State Votes except for two states, the winner of that state gets all of the electoral votes. So were focused on about nine to 12 different states. And its those polls in its demographic shifts that we look at in those particular polls that we need to focus on, right . Dan data and what what do they tell you . So i think what they tell us is that when it comes to youth vote, when it comes to women, when it comes to many minority voters, Kamala Harris is gaining ground and you can see that number from september or excuse me, from the summer after President Biden stepped out, were Kamala Harriss numbers its just kind of start to go up and up and up. But there is some softening with respect to her support for non college educated white men, for instance. And there are places where i think when shes looking at that socalled blue wall, those midwest states that are key where her campaign will have some thanks of course, this latest Cnn Poll does show that the economy ranks as the most important issue for likely voters. 41 despite the u. S. Economy bouncing back from the pandemic faster than any other nation across the globe, 50 50 of likely voters say they trust trump to handle the economy while only 39 trust harris. Why has the biden administration failed to get the message across to voters that the u. S is actually in good shape with inflation down from 9 to 2. 5 , Interest Rates coming down. I mean, its actually better than most other nations. Europe looks but within v at the united states doesnt it that is absolutely true. I think two things are going on. One absolutely. This is a failure of the biden administration in the sense that they have a real Success Story to tell and they havent been able to tell that in a compelling way. Having said that, yes, our economy let me and many aspects our economy or not only strong, but getting stronger. And i think that is helping Kamala Harriss polling numbers. But when it comes to certain products that we all purchase on a daily or weekly basis. A lot of people very rationally feel like were paying more than we used to. That isnt inflation. Inflation has come back down. It was very difficult to explain to people, but look at other aspects of the economy when the thing that is hitting their pocketbook, the most directly, which is at the market, had the gas station, things cost more. Its hard to convince them vince them that the bidenharris its administration has actually done good things for the economy, except again, if they could, they have a great story to tell when it comes to a lot of these big pieces of legislation that have helped bolstered our Economy And Support for harris. As you mentioned, has skyrocketed since she entered the race, but not enough to attract support from former democrat. Now panda leading senate moderate Joe Manchin, who says he wont be endorsing harris because of her plan to get rid of the filibuster in order to codify abortion rights. How significant is this and particularly with Cnn Polling showing harris has a double Digit Lead over trump among Women Effect that he wont accept manchin frankly does not have huge coattails. And so obviously Kamala Harris wants to win every state she doesnt want to lose any Democrat Slash independents support. But lets be honest, i dont think Joe Manchin sways elections. I think he knows that. And i think the fact that we are talking about him is probably a win in the sense that he went for him in the sense that he said, well, maybe all run maybe ill throw my hat and when president Joe Biden said, im not running anymore, i think when all the wins turn towards harris, he realized that was untenable. But there is not a lot of support either in the party they or otherwise. And i dont think his failure to endorse is going to become outcome determinative here. Jessica levinson, always a pleasure to get your analysis on these issues appreciate it. Thank you helene is gaining strength. Its expected to become a hurricane soon as it barrels toward the u. S state of florida. Evacuations are on the underway helene could hit as the strongest storm to make landfall in the us in over a Year Cnn Meteorologist Chad Myers has the latest helene still a tropical storm and is going to become a hurricane and then make a swipe at canned keau temperatures are in the upper 80s when it comes to the water temperatures. So this could rapidly intensify and its forecast to do so all the way up to 120 miles per hour at landfall were still going to have to see if this is going to be on the left side of the right side of the cone, because that makes a significant difference here with the amount of damage that could possibly occur along the West Coast of florida for sure. And if we start to push some of that surge into tampa, we could start to see that coastal saltwater flooding. There. Youre Hurricane Warnings are in effect. There from Anclote River all the way over to about mexico beach. And this is the area thats going to see most of the surge, ten to 15 feet of Saltwater Surge pushing back into the rivers, into the estuaries and into the marshes here. By the time overnight, wednesday night, and into early thursday, thats when the first tropical Storm Force winds will hit the u. S. But but then by later on in the ec, those Hurricane Force winds as well, probably 110 plus certainly forecast is for 120, but that 110 plus goes all the way almost to tallahassee cant imagine what that town will look like with all of those beautiful trees getting pushed around by 100 mile per hour wind. Also the threat of ai a tornado or two, that always happens with a land falling hurricane we have a front across parts of the southeast. All of that moisture is going to bump into the front and make significant rainfall. So yes, we have Flood Watches in effect. And this area in purple thats ten inches of rainfall or more over the next few days. And look how wide of an area that is from asheville, almost over towards charlotte and toward atlanta. So much rainfall in the hills, Southern Appalachian Hills could see significant flash flooding, freshwater flooding, not the saltwater simply because of all the heavy, heavy rainfall thats going to be coming down for days on end be careful out there still to come.
