The fbi and the atf have joined the investigation and the residents have been briefed and well bring you any updates as soon as they come into the newsroom and a live report from maine in the next half hour.

The tanks went in for a targeted raid according to the reporting of the times of israel. But for now the larger ground offensive has not happened. You see the photos, 200 hostages held by hamas this morning. As negotiations for their release continue. Also this morning, as you see the carnage and the wreckage in gaza theres a chorus from several countries calling for a pause. And here at home the conversation happens and icu Berkeley Student seen walking out of class supporting that pause and calling for humanitarian aid and a cease fire. They believe israels presence limits the freedoms of palestinians in gaza. [ chanting ] theres another facet to this protest. When you look at the video at the plaza you see protesters wearing masks. Some students told us theyre worried about the potential consequences of their positions. Theres a lot of backlash coming at people who are in support of this. And mischaracterizations of their opinions. That mischaracterizat ion leads to people losing jobs and getting kicked out and expelled from school. Having future job offers completely wiped off the board. Well, many of the students mindful of berkeley Corporate Law professors recently penned oped in the wall street journal titled quote dont hire my antisemitic law students. Meantime, the New York Times reporting this morning law students at harvard and columbia had job offers revoked after signing a letter expressing support for palestinians. Well, money to support the war effort in the the middle east will be top of mind for the house of representatives this morning after three weeks without a louis speaker, the gop has finally come together to elect conservative louisiana congressman mike johnson.

The 51yearold faced opposition from democrats over his antigay positions and his push to overturn the 2020 election. Heres the man democrats wanted as speaker hakeem jeffries. Joe biden won the 2020 president ial election. Hes doing a great job under difficult circumstances. And no amount of election denialism will ever change that reality. So lets talk about the new speaker and his positions. He has denied the validity of the election. Csu east bay professor nolan higden explains why he thinks mr. Johnson got the votes. I dont think that mike johnson necessarily bridged the divide. I think what was it was that hes not perfect for the job but more about how little hes alienated people in his party. He is in just his fourth term in congress. Time now is 5 08. Many people in mexico waking up to shocking scenes from their communities. The new images coming into the newsroom after otis strikes as a category 5 hurricane. And heres a live look outside before we head to break. It is thursday, or friday junior as we like to say. Were looking live from the mark hopkins cam on the top of when we challenged ourselves to create the worlds most emotional and sustainable vehicle, we had tothink differently. We had to push the boundaries to not just create a car but a movement. Every fisker ocean is produced with over 50 kilograms of ethically sourced, recycled materials. Its about accomplishing something bigger than itself. A clean future for all. New video this morning of the impact of otis along the Pacific Coast of mexico. The category 5 storm slammed into acapulco tuesday night blowing out windows at beach front hotels. The main he he into there was blocked for landslides for most of yesterday complicating rescue and recovery efforts. The roadway is now open for emergency vehicles only. This video shows the moment otis ripped right through a house. You can hear a man yelling at the other people inside to hide in the back room as the rain pelts them inside of their own home and this drone footage shows the aftermath. Streets a golf course and a sports stadium completely inundated in what looks like a hotel or condo building ripped to shreds. Sorry about the water mark on your screen. This is how the video came to us but we wanted to show it to you to really give you an idea of how difficult it will be for people to get out. But thats what people will have to do and our Andrea Nakano went to Oakland International where some are flying in via mexico city. However, she met one man headed in the other direction. Reporter jim wright has seen some of the devastating pictures coming out of acapulco. As hurricane otis ripped through the area. It really feel for the people in acapulco, especially the time frame of how it developed so quickly. And it was a category 5 when it hit, which is crazy. Reporter jim is going to a coastal town just south of acapulco. Its a place where he hopes to retire. Images and information coming out of acapulco are limited as power has been completely wiped out in the area. Calvary chapel has one of its churches just three blocks from the water. Pastor angel baez hasnt been able to reach any of the Staff Members sing the early hours of the storm. He said angel, the wind here is ferocious. We have never seen theyve gone through hurricanes before. He says, pastor angel, weve never seen anything like this and the amount of water thats coming down is just unbelievable. Can i have reporter jim says he doesnt have second thoughts about retiring on the coast of mexico. But this hurricane will make him more cautious about the location of his new home. And one of the reasons that i chose that area, because of infrequency of hurricanes. And you just hope that everybody gets to where they need to be safely. Now it has been downgraded to remnants of otis. So that is a good thing, jessica burch, im sure you know lot more, we see the cycle behind you right now. You know, i just what i ended up doing it doesnt even have a name to it anymore because its the remnants leftover. What im showing you right now is just the past 24 hours on the loop. For our satellite and radar imagery. Now this system really did pack a punch and i mean we dont see a category 5 just like that as it made its way inland up near mexico and a lot of meteorologists i have been following this all yesterday and especially yesterday morning as it was making landfall. It really did come as a surprise for many and heres where its at right now. As it cold fronted to track north all throughout yesterday afternoon into the evening hours and now the leftover storm system is actually up just near texas and along that border. Continue to watch that closely heading into the afternoon hours and of course all the damage that has come from it too. But back here in the bay area, lets talk about our forecast here locally. Low pressure has been moving its way in from the north, weve had two systems this week. Basically two cold fronts. The one that came through yesterday which we all felt and i mean it was so falllike yesterday. We were dealing with cold air moving in. Windy conditions. A little bit of rain up in the north bay. Heading into friday, were going to see a very similar system. Just more dry with that one. More cold air excuse me moving its way in from the north. Lets take a look at the daytime highs today. Today were still sitting in the 60s near San Francisco and upper 60s across the bay bridge into oakland. And right behind me you can actually see the bay bridge. Visibility is great as were waking up and heading out the door. Clear conditions throughout most of the bay. Were sitting at 67 degrees for our daytime highs today this afternoon up anywhere from vallejo excuse me actually vallejo is 60 and 68. 67 up near santa rosa all the way down into oakland. And were warming up into the 60s today and anywhere from livermore all the way down into the Santa Clara Valley. Where were also seeing Clear Conditions there too. I want to drop all this and i want to show you whats going on as we head into the next seven days. Updating our numbers, were really not seeing too much of a change. Upper 60s flirting with lower 70s throughout the next seven days. We will see a lot more sunshine though which hey, by the way, halloween is right around the corner for all the trickortreaters heading out there, theyre going to be dealing with dry conditions but those overnight hours, they get pretty brisk and chilly. Think about yesterday alone and overnight lows dropped down to the 40s and it was very cool. So just keep that in mind of course the layers are going to be necessary for all those trickortreaters and maybe underneath their you know, cute little costumes, heading into the bay upper 60s turn into lower 60s by tomorrow as the next cold front moves in. But notice how we recover pretty fast in the 70s wrapping up this week and heading into next week with cloudy skies and in the longrange models. Lets talk about the freeways right now and i have mostly good news to report. Getting up early on this thursday morning, right now is a good time to be on the roadways. Live look here at the bay bridge, metering lights are off and its actually been a pretty nice ride overall. For the most part this morning. As you work your way making that way out of the east bay over into San Francisco this morning. So pretty easy and calm conditions there. Lets look at some of the maps right now. Where we are tracking a few brake lights is that ride westbound 580, no surprise there. Supercommuters, you are up early and you are making that ride through tracy getting on to 580. You kind of know what to expect overail but we have reports of a crash at grant line and its blocking the right lane. Thats making things just a little bit slower than usual. So maybe give yourself some extra time and grab that jacket and leave a few minutes early to get through the brake lights there. Headed out of the south bay this morning, so far traffic is moving along pretty nicely overall. Were seeing some nice conditions north 101, 280, really no problems right now on any of our south bay freeways. So if you are headed on 101 maybe into the peninsula towards sfo, right now is a good time to be on the freeways. Reed . Well, as parents we know with flu shots and vaccines, kids are not fans of the needles. But never fear. Doctors at lucille pack hard Childrens Hospital have their ways to ease the nerves over needles. Shawn chitnis live with mow a video game of all things helps. Hi shawn. Reporter hey reed, good morning. Yeah, halloween may be just around the corner but this is not the type of scare that kids and really adults are looking forward to. This technology could be a game changer literally with a video game to take the fear away from kids and later when they become adults. Its the visit no kid looks forward to. Getting a shot in the arm. And these days, there are many they have to receive too. So this stanford childrens Chariot Program has a new video game to distract them. And take away any anxiety they may feel during the whole experience. We frequently encounter kids and even big kids, adults, who are scared of needles and shots. Reporter dr. Sam rodriguez is a pediatric anesthesiologist and codirector of the program. Hes also a parent of three kids and knows how difficult this can be. How can we address this needle phobia . So this fear of needles. And target it at a really, really young age so that we dont have adults who are scared of needles in the future and hesitant to get vaccines. Reporter the idea is to get the patient playing the game where they build a pinata and try to collect the prize inside it well before they ever feel a poke from the needle. Young kids sometimes building the pinata is their favorite part and that will be the whole experience for them. Thats all they want to do. Reporter fun graphics, music to help draw them in, and even a rubber chicken to squeeze are all part of the game. And at the end, they get a prize to pick and take home. Anything we can do to increase the amount of patients getting their vaccines, especially on time and staying on schedule, is really valuable. Reporter its not just a win for the child and their family. But the whole community. It is a Public Health measure that not only helps the individual, but society as a whole. Reporter and so of course they are really excited to see what they can do with this vide
