On mobile and desktop today. Im yasmin vossoughian. Were live in israel where there could be a Ground Invasion at any moment. Here is Josh Lederman from the report. This morning, new signs that israels ground war and gaza maybe a minute. Israel vowing to increase attacks as a prepares for the next stage of the war. Releasing video of what it says in an Infantry Brigade practice in the battle plan. Air dropping leaflets warning civilians in Northern Gaza to flee south. As israels Chief Of Staff tell soldiers, we will enter the gaza strip. At the same, time new efforts to get more aid to gaza. Humanitarian organizations are saying that it is still not nearly enough. The u. S. Is increasing its Military Presence in the regions Secretary Of State, anthony blinken, was asked about the fears of a larger conflict. We are concerned. In fact, we expect that there is a likelihood of escalation. Escalation by iranian proxies perpetrated against our forces, against our person. We are taking steps to ensure that we can effectively defend our people, and, respond decisively if we need to. We are also covering some other major news as well. Police investigate the deadly stabbing of the president of a synagogue in michigan. And the field is also sad as republicans the house get ready to try to pick a speaker after three weeks without, won a crucial form set to take place tomorrow. Well take you live to capitol hill. This is coming up as. Well we want to begin with new signs that an israeli Ground Invasion into gaza could be in minutes. With israel really seem footage of forces practicing a battle plan, vowing to increase his tax at the next phase of this war. The idf has been dropping leaflets from the sky, warning gaza residents who have remained in the north to move south. Saying their presence was their lives and danger. Meanwhile, the humanitarian crisis in gaza grows more dire, 17 trucks filled with a turn now on the egyptian side of the rafah border crossing. They have not yet entered. And the west bank, israel saying that it had more than 450 people overnight. Calling them activists. Providing few weather details. That news is coming after Israeli Forces said it struck a terror cell. All that was under a mosque. In the west bank. Well bring in bradley, who is live in lebanon to tell us more about all this happening on the ground there. Lets talk first about this potential Ground Invasion. Its been two weeks or so, of course, since october 7th attack. This grand vigil is going up at any moment. It is still not. Happen what more do you know about . Yeah, yasmin, i mean, ive been in the same position with you. Every time my team and i go to bed, we think were going to be woken up by some sort of Ground Invasion news of some massive strike into the gaza strip. So, far for the next ten, 11 days, we havent seen. That as my colleague said in that package you just ran, if there are increasing signs, we have been seen signals every day for the past ten days. Its unclear whether this signal means some sort of imminent invasion. We just got word that there was one israeli soldier who was killed while he was in the gaza strip. And some sort of mission inside the gaza strip. This indicates that things are heating up. There is still an incredibly fierce barrage of missiles being fired by the israelis into the gaza strip, be met by hamas and other rockets being fired out of the gaza strip, into israel. Clearly, the tempo, the ferocity of this fighting is increasing. Whether that means is a Ground Evasion that could be happening within the day or two, in the next couple of hours, thats really hard to say. To be honest, yasmin, im not sure even this really Senior Officers know. The fact, is theres a lot of considerations that go into this. There are still civilians who are in the northern part of the gaza strip, the israelis have been clear that theyre trying to avoid a lot of civilians in that area. Theyve made clear that thats the area theyre trying to go into snuff out hamas. A lot of this depends on a lot of different factors. Really, its still a big target. Yasmin. I want to talk about where you are as well at the border there, between israel and lebanon. Israel has been evacuating some villages near the lebanon border as its warning of hezbollah against further strikes. The u. S. Is giving the same warning to israel as well. How much of a concern is there about the conflict growing where you are. Yasmin, i given a similar message to what i gave about the gaza strip. We have been sitting here, waiting, expecting for something pick to happen. Night after night, day after. Day so far, we havent seen. Anything we have been seeing the same style of fighting thats been going on gently between israel on the gaza strip. The tempo of it has picked out. The ferocity has increased dramatically. Still, neither side seems to have deviated from the kind of choreography, the Rules Of Engagement, informal Rules Of Engagement that govern the interchange of fire between lebanon israel. That border behind me here. So far, everyone is sticking to the proper rules, to the proper plans. That could change it anytime. We just saw today, five hezbollah fighters were killed. Just today. That brings the total number to 25 were killed. This is a clearly increase risk along the border. One that we dont know where that decision from whether or not to escalate, whether thats going to be coming from hezbollah people youve been speaking to. They say hezbollah accidents. On hamas people up and saying that us as well. Even though both groups are backed by iran. Now, tehran is clearly facing an impasse. With the push for some kind of broad maneuver by hezbollah to push them into israel. It would be a major distraction for the israeli military, even as their machine outside the gaza strip to try to get rid of hamas. Did you have to divert their troops up to the north would be a major issue for them. Weve been hearing from even benjamin netanyahu. He said that in his visit to north and israel, where there are citizens that are still being evacuated, some 14 villages that were evacuated today, maybe netanyahu warned hezbollah that they would be destroyed if they tried to go into israel. We heard from jonathan he is a spokesperson for the idf. He said that hezbollah needs to make a decision. And people of lebanon need to make a decision. Whether or not hezbollah will drag this entire nation into war, and nation that is war weary, all the way from back in 2006. The last time they found with the israelis. A country that has been suffering from an Economic Disaster for the past four years. Theres a lot of people here where i am, where they are really supporting the palestinians. They want to see the israelis put in their place. At the same, time there are huge parts of this country. Including a lot of people here in southern lebanon. Including a lot of people who support hezbollah, who just dont have the taste for another round of destruction going forward. Yasmin. Matt bradley for, us appreciate it. At this hour, some of it you touched. On the u. S. Is increasing its active Military Presence in the middle east says fears of this broader war are growing. This new show a, fors including redirecting this eisenhower strike in the middle east instead of to the Eastern Mediterranean where it was supposed to join the ford strike group. So, that some 2000 u. S. Service members in the region are now in this heightened states, quote unquote, ready to deploy. The president has indicated u. S. Troops dont need to be deployed into israel and gaza, has vowed to provide israel everything they need. A short time ago, the State Department updated their travel advisory for rock. Urging people to not travel to the country due to terrorism, kidnapping, armed conflicts, civil unrest, and iraqs limited capacity to provide support to u. S. Citizens. One of reagan nbcs allie raffa. For more on this. If you, well, ali expand on some of what i just laid, out and what we were hearing from the administration on the fear of this becoming a wider war. Yeah, yasmin that certainly top of mind for administration officials. The president , todays white house officials tell us that this is very much a Working Weekend for the president as he remains at his delaware home, focusing on any updates in the war between israel and hamas between the scenes. We know that the president spoke with israeli president , netanyahu, to talk about the latest updates and that war. He was also briefed by his National Security team, that briefing included Vice President kamala harris, Secretary Of State, anthony blinken, and Secretary Of Defense, lloyd austin. We also understand that according to the, pope francis also spoke with President Biden during a 20minute long phone call. They talk about pats for peace in the middle east. Administration officials continue to say that the president s number one priority right now is getting americans out of gaza. An estimated ten americans that are still unaccounted for are believed to be among the over 200 hostages that we know are inside of gaza. They say that a coordination and communication at the highest levels is continuing with israelis, and with the egyptians, sing qatari is to be able to facilitate a fine teen prenup these people after we saw two americans freed last week. The president thanking the israelis for spearheading that effort. White house Officials Say that they also are concerned, and focus right now on ensuring that more aid, more of those trucks, those hundreds of trucks that are lined up along the rafah border crossing, that more them will be able to go into gaza to help just propel stadiums. Tillis and to the special envoy for humanitarian affairs in the middle east. With jen psaki. This is a legitimate needs for the people of gaza. If hamas interferes with, csis, or diverts this assistance, it will, as a practical matter, make it very difficult for this assistance to continue. It will be another demonstration of hamass lack of concern for the welfare of the palestinian people. Yasmin, u. S. Official familiar with these efforts to get more aid into cause that is telling me that they are not aware of any attempts of diversion by hamas to divert any of the trucks that were allowed in yesterday. They say that as far as all those trucks were able to get to you and facilities inside gaza, once they were able to cross that rafah border crossing. Officials say that they are also working on these efforts to get americans out. We know that more than 350 americans have been in contact with the State Department requesting help to be able to get them and their Family Members outside of gaza. What i think is also notable is that Secretary Of State, anthony blinken, was asked about just the future of this war. He was asked by our christian walker, what efforts inside gaza are going to look like if israel, as weve heard the israeli Officials Say, they have no interest in governing any area of gaza. Once this war eventually does. And take a listen to a bit more that. They cant go back to the status quo, with hamas been in a position, in terms of its governance of gaza, to repeat what it did. At the same time, but apart from the israelis is absolutely no, intent no desire to be running gaza themselves. There are different ideas out there, but one could follow. All of that needs to be worked. Is something that needs to be worked even as israel is dealing with the current threat. Yasmin, obviously that leads to concerns over whether this vacuum of governing will lead to potentially hamas or other Terrorist Organizations to use the gaza strip for any further future activity, yasmin. Allie raffa for, as ali, thank you. We have a lot more coming up, folks. In just 60 seconds, we have some Breaking News out of capitol hill. We now know the new candidates who are going for the gavel as the house prepares to take another shot at picking a speaker. A lot reported that coming up next. Coming u next all right, welcome back. We learn just a short time ago who is going to run for the speaker seat as House Republicans are heading back to washington. I want to bring in our reporter on capitol hill to talk us through it. We had a kind of working less yesterday. It seemed as if this list is more finished up. To say, to be more exact, talk us through what were learning, who is on that list, looking at this noon deadline tomorrow. Yeah there was a new deadline today for the House Republicans to decide if they wanted to run for speaker. Nine people have said yes, they do want to put their names and the. Hat is not the news weve heard in the past. Its not jim jordan, ste scalise, not those people. Its nine folks, one of them as the secretary congressn. One of them is a former marine. One of them is a former owner of more than 20 mcdonalds restaurants. That is kevin hern of oklahoma. Then you have tom amber, he is the current house majority. Web he is currently, of course, and leadership. He has more than eight years of experience here in the house of representatives. He is somebody who has the backing of kevinmccarthy, but does not have the backing of donald trump. That may play a role. Regardless of who ends up getting in the speakers gavels, everyone seems to be saying this morning on sunday shows, theyve been saying this for 19 days now, is this needs to get done. This needs to get done quickly. So running through the next couple days, here tomorrow at 6 30 pm, thats going to be a Family Meeting of sorts. What that is goi t look like as every house republican, Whil The Nine candidates stand up and explain why they believe they should be the next speaker of that house. Afr all, those nine candidates, they will go home fonight. Then tuesday at nine a. M. , there will be an internal vote within the republican conference to decide, hopefully, one candidate they want to put on the floor. As speaker patrick mchenry, says he hopes to be able to, as soon as tuesday, have a candidate on the floor. This is something thats been going on for 19 days. I remember looking at a couple days. Here it is currently october 20, for September 30th was the last time this house passed any piece of legislation. November 17th is when the government shuts down. So a lot to do in less than a month, jasmine. Were certainly going to be watching activities on capitol hill in the coming days. See if they can get something, someone across the finish line there, and then get something done and the house, especially with agency, it varies in parts of the world right now. Desperately. Thank you. Coming up in our next hour, i will speak with congresswoman Delia Ramirez about the gops dysfunctional search for speaker. About the letter that she and it doesnt over houston look at a congolese signed calling for an immediate cease fire of gaza. Up next, the tragic stabbing of a synagogue president in michigan.
