Good morning, everyone. It is about 00 a. M. Eastern righhere iour atlans studios. Welco back to c this morng were all here ready for you. Heres what were watching for you this mornin more than a dozen aftershocks ha been reported in the hours since that rare earthquake in the northeast hes yestday now, residents are describing that moment and the impact on the Critical Systems inhe area. They us is Onlert Israeli American targets in e middle east was whatrompted the warning. Andow soon they expected to happen plus, we are looking at your eclipse for out. We have a growing severe risk are all along the path of totality. So well take a look at and Caitlin Clark spinal college game. Its going to be for National Titles both eyes beat uconn labs night, but ive controversial call at the end of this game has huskies fans just super mad this morning. Were going to have that coming up all right the us is actively preparing for a significant attack from iran in the coming days, officials in the and israel are on high alert after an israeli airstrike in damascus that killed at least seven iranian officials, including a top commander, the state Department Says it warranted iran not to use the strike as a pretext to attack us personnel and facilities in the region. Were also waiting this morning for word on when israel will reopen crossings two without Aid Into Gaza the Erez Crossing crossing is one of them, american officials worried widespread destruction will prevent aid from reaching those in need Camila Dechalus is covering this for as can be look, good morning to you does the us have any first on this attack that they expect from iran, any specific intelligence about what theyre expecting woke up well, good morning, victor amara, at this time, us officials tell us that an attack made by iran is inevitable. And even though we dont know now the specifics of when and exactly how theyre planning to strike back. We know that he could come as early as next week. Now, this issue was a major talking point. The last time President Biden spoke on the phone with the israeli Prime Minister and both governments say that they are making preparations and preparing for the worstcase scenario. But the Bigger Picture here is that if a does strike back, then this could potentially escalate and become a wider regional conflict. And that is something that isnt an biden has really strived to avoid since the israel and hamas war broke out, victor amara, all right. Camila dechalus. Thank you very much. You know, sources tells the director of the cia, and israels intelligence chiefs are heading to egypt to continue hostage negotiations. A hamas rejected israels last hostage counter offer. An official close to the discussion says that hamas believes israel is offering nothing new lets go now to nada bashir in london. Not are you getting any indication that this new round of talks might be successful considering that very strong conversation between biden and netanyahu and Biden Imploring netanyahu to empower his negotiators. Do strike a deal. Well look there certainly mounting pressure on all sides particularly the on israel from the United States to come to some sort of at least a temporary Truce Agreement at this stage, according to a diplomat familiar with those ongoing discussions, there are still significant gaps which remain in any sort of agreement that is currently on the table. Weve seen both sides. Weve been backandforth between doha and cairo, holding various rounds of talks. We are expecting the cia director William Burns to be in cairo meeting with the mossad director david barnea, again to continue those discussions, we know of course that over the last a few weeks, a major Sticking Point has been discussions around the number of Palestinian Prisoners to be released in exchange for the number of israeli hostages currently held captive in gaza. Be released. And of course we did hear from a senior hamas official earlier in the week saying that they had rejected israels latest counterproposal because they fail to address two of their key and newest demands. Now they are calling for palestinians in gaza to be permitted to allow to return to the north. And they are of course, also still calling for withdrawal of israeli troops from gaza that has not been addressed according to sources and diplomats familiar with those discussions and ongoing negotiations, israel wants to see a system put in place to inspect those attempting to return to the northern. Of course, has said it will not be redeploying its troops from northern or central gaza. And in fact, well continue to push forward and move southward, wants to maintain some sort of Security Presence in the gaza strip. Hamas, of course, also continuing to push for a permanent lasting ceasefire. This is something that many in these National Community on our backing, they do want to see at least a pause in fighting to provide some rest, fight on the humanitarian front and to allow window for further diplomatic negotiations. But as weve heard repeatedly now from the israeli side and from its its Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu. They do not see a ceasefire is being feasible at this point and wish to continue pushing forward with a Ground Operation in the south that is certainly raised concern. But again, mounting pressure from members of the interNational Community, particularly of the bag the killing of Seven Members of the world. Central kitchen ngo, humanitarian organization, growing frustration, including from some of israels closest allies. So it remains to be seen whether that will influence talks taken place in cairo this weekend Nada Bashir Reporting for us. Thank you so much millions of people in the northeast are hoping for a calmer de, after being rattled by at least 18 aftershocks from a 4. 8 magnitude earthquake that can be felt all the way from washington, dc to maine. However, there were no serious injuries or damage reported in the strongest earthquake to hit new jersey in more than 240 years. But the shaking did leave a lot of people and pets startled more than 23 Million People felt light, shaking and much of it was caught on camera. Cnns Jason Carroll has more it should pictures off walls in this home in middlesex, new jersey and had many dogs and at least one cat running for cover and had some east coast residents like this one in bridgewater, new jersey questioning exactly what had happened the magnitude 4. 8 quake hit at 10 23 a. M. According to the Us Geological survey, its epicenter near lebanon, new jersey located about 50 miles west of new york city. It was the strongest to hit new jersey hes since before it was even a state 83 the year the us de e Revolutionary War serve quick. The quake felt as far north as maine residents also reported feeling it in pennsylvania, vermont, new hampshire, connecticut, and Washington Dc the tremor temporarily caused a ground stop at all three major airports rounding new york city, three homes in newark, new jersey had to be evacuated due to structural damage, though no reports of major damage or injuries in the tristate area new yorkers should go about their normal day first Reondersre Rking To Make Su the city safe, the ent, anything, but business as usual, for peoplen city and region of the country not accustomed to the ground suddenly shifting beneath their feet me and my colleague were on the 83rd floor of 30 hudson yards. And so weve got a pretty good shape. We thought it was a metro or the train because it was very weird to feel given the vast Critical Infrastructure of the region, new yorks governor says Structural Engineering teams, dispatched to inspect the citys bridges, tunnels, and subways. We are going to be reviewing all potentially vulnerable infrastructure, state sites throughout the state of new york that is critically important. In the aftermath of an event like this and while the quake didnt last long, ten seconds or so by some accounts, it left an impression with those who felt in Jason Carroll, cnn, new york i find that was everyones reaction to it. Even if you didnt feel its like what there was an earthquake northeast, especially if you sit in new york, new jersey like wait, is this what i think it is . Yes, it was yes, it was anything, carol, thanks so much for that. Well, the total Solar Eclipse is just two days away, but clouds could obstruct some peoples views of this rare event. Cnn meteorologist, at least a raffa joins us now, so its going to be a close call for some people, i guess were watching this really closely because weve got a Storms System that develops in the Southern Plains and actually can bring us some clouds and maybe even some strong and severe thunderstorms that looks like the storms will fire up after the eclipse, but theres gonna be a lot of people in texas on monday. Heres that path of totality. We lined it up with the severe risk and you can see its a level two out of five of your risk for some damaging winds and large hail is some storms fire up later on . In the afternoon, so it will come with some rain, couple of clouds there, especially in the Southern Plains from texas over towards louisiana and arkansas. We will know have some breaks in the clouds along the path of totality. So if youve got clouds, its not that youre not going to see it. It just might not be the most crisper view. It actually looks like new england might have some of the clearest scott so when were talking about cloud cover, it can be broken where its mostly cloudy and theres still some peaks in there. And even what partly cloudy skies you still see the sun here and there. So well have to just kind of be lucky that theres not one cloud passing over at that time. Now, whats another cool thing when it comes to the weather and the eclipse is that because of the moon creates getting that shadow over the sun, temperatures will actually drop. The Weather Services already forecasting Temperature Dips over parts of texas and rochester. During that totality. So youll get a little bit of a cool breeze as well. But those temperatures will rebound as soon as the moon moves on these are off, but thanks so much israel says that it has now approved reopening a key crossing to allow humanitarian aid to flow into gaza for the First Time Since the Israel Hamas War started six months ago, was he is live near that crossing with the latest plus backtoback setbacks and two of Donald Trumps legal cases, well have more on that.

I was still a alvarez at the white house and this is cnn israel has approved a temporary opening of the Erez Crossing to help increase the flow of humanitarian Aid Into Gaza. At the checkpoint located between israel and Northern Gaza thats been closed since the hamas attack on october kober, seven. The announcement came after President Biden expressed frustration about the gaza crisis in a quite tense Phone Conversation with israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu thursday. Cnns Nic Robertson is joining us now, nick, are you hearing anything about the timing of the reopening . Of the Erez Crossing no hard details yet, but there is an expectation that it could be as early as tomorrow. Im just going to step back out of the way because were right down at errors right now mathias, who is going to zoom in there and youre looking at the Erez Crossing now this is a crossing that traditionally was used for palestine justinians mostly to come out and do their day jobs in israel and then and then go back into gaza at the end of the day. But of course, this is one of the main places that hamas attacked and kidnap to idf troops there and shut up the shut up a lot of the facilities there it can get aid trucks through there. And this is what were expecting to happen and we know that the idf was down there speaking with the World Food Program yesterday, we know that the governments under a lot of pressure to make it happen. But after telling weve been along the border here we tried to have a live broadcast with you in the last show and there were the idf troops there, said we couldnt broadcasts from there were so we came here. Its still a tense situation around here. We can hear gunfire from the other side of the border. You can see thats gaza on the hilltop behind me there. You can hear explosion still. So the question in my mind is the white house is looking for action from the israeli government. Theyve said theyll open this crossing. But the action will be those aid trucks going in with gunfire and explosions so close by on the other side, that seems theres going to be difficult to achieve. And we know from Satellite Imagery just over the border there many of the roads leading to the border have have been hit by heavy bombs over the last six months. Some of those roads are so cratered theres no tarmac. So how are these big aid trucks going to get in and out of there . So of course,
