World. Im rosemary church, and this is cnn newsroom. Saudi arabia is offering its explanation for what happened to Jamal Khashoggi, but many in the International Community are not buying it. In a fox news interview, the Saudi Foreign minister called the journalists death a murder that was a tremendous mistake by a rogue operation. Adele ajuber added Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman was not aware beforehand. He called the eldest son to express condolences. Our Nick Robinson joins us now from istanbul with more on all of this. Nick, how likely is it that Jamal Khashoggis body will ever be located . Reporter well, what we are hearing, the latest if you like, from the foreign minister in saudi arabia, is that they dont know where his body is. And as they have the men that turkish investigators would most like to question, the 15 minute turkish investigators say were the hit squad that came from saudi arabia the day Jamal Khashoggi disappeared, it would seem the preponderance of information should still be with those people in riyadh back in saudi arabia. But its not clear if those are among those 15 people or among the 18 that the saudis have detained. But the trail here on the ground does seem to be running somewhat cold now. The trail for Jamal Khashoggis body is going cold. Video released the turkish media over the weekend reveal the hours before his death. This is saudis offer their first accounting of events. This wasnt a rogue operation. This was an operation where individuals exceeded the authorities and responsibilities they had. They made a mistake when they killed Jamal Khashoggi in the consulate and they tried to cover up for it. Reporter a fist fight, a choke hold, the implication being khashoggis death an accident. In riyadh, 18 people arrested, but there are still holes in the saudi narrative, not least, they say they are cooperating with turkish investigators, but still khashoggis body is missing. Where some of these consular vehicles went in the hours africa shogis disappearance, still a mystery. Saudi leaks say his body, given to a local collaborator. Forests and farms outside istanbul have been at the center of rumors. His body may have been dumped there, but as yesterday, no evidence. On saturday, turkish investigators questioned consulate employees, including the consul generals driver. But still no body. His friends demanding its return. Translator give it back so that we can raise his funeral. Let the whole world watch Jamal Khashoggis farewell who was killed in a darkroom with horrific details, and whose body is tried to be hidden. Reporter President Trump asking, too. Somebody knows, but nobody of the various investigation groups at this moment know, but well find out. Reporter the u. S. President now beginning to question the role his saudi ally, Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman may have had in khashoggis death. Its possible. You dont know that, but its possible. Reporter so, if they do find or rather maybe when they find Jamal Khashoggis body, that could be very helpful for investigators to provide forensic information and perhaps shed lie light on why one of saudi arabias top Forensic Experts was on that socalled hit team that turkish officials talked about. Rosemary . And, nick, we have learned that saudi Prince Mohammed bin salman called khashoggis oldest son to offer condolences. Do we know how his son responded to that call from the crown prince . Reporter we noah corresponding to the Saudi Press Agency that his son thanked Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman for the call. One wouldnt expect, a, the Saudi Press Agency to say anything else, or in the circumstance that Jamal Khashoggis son finds himself in, wouldnt expect him to say anything else either. His situation in saudi arabia has a lot of speculation around it, a lot of questions about his freedom to travel. But at the moment he is the principal member of the family in saudi arabia with the closest ties to his father. Most of the rest of the family, close family, have left. And, of course, he like his friends would dearly, dearly like to know precisely what happened to his father. And he, like everyone else, will have to wait for the investigation, rosemary. Understandably. And, Nick Robertson with the very latest from istanbul. Appreciate that. And in an interview with Washington Post, the u. S. President is offering conflicting news on the case. He said theres been deception and theres been lies, but he stopped short of blaming Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman. Nobody has told me hes responsible. Nobody has told me hes not responsible. We havent reached that point. Nevertheless, u. S. Lawmakers are doubtful and pointing the finger at the crown prince. Republican senator bob corker says the u. S. Should punish Mohammed Bin Salman if an investigation confirms he was involve in the killing. Corker spoke with our jake tapper. I think he did it. I think he did it. If he did, i think there should be a collective response. I talked to ambassadors from other countries. In the west, theyre looking for the United States for leadership on this issue. But they also want to make sure that they coordinate a response with us. They, too, have arms sales to saudi arabia. They, too, have tinterests ther like we do. This is something youre going to see the United States, united kingdom, france, germany working collectively with others if he did this, to respond in an appropriate way. And fellow republican senator Lindsey Graham says he is beyond skeptical. If the crown prince truly loved his country, he would not have put his country in this position. If he truly respected the relationship between the United States and saudi arabia, he would never have thought of this. The question is, was he involved. I think the answer is unequivocally yes. First answer was a lie. The second story line is just manufactured. The reship is important, but our values are more important. Ive been there enough to know. Ive been the leading supporter along with john mccain of the u. S. saudi relationship. I feel completely betrayed. Us treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin will attend a meeting combatting terrorism. Even though he pulled out of an Investor Conference because of the khashoggi case, his travel plans have been closely watched as an indicator of the Trump Administrations response to the situation. Joining us now from istanbul is matthew briser. He is a former u. S. Diplomat and a former coordinator of u. S. Policy in turkey with the National Security council. Thank you so much for being with us. Thank you. So, Jamal Khashoggis body has still not been found. We do want to just listen to what the Saudi Foreign minister said about that when he was questioned about it on fox news over the weekend. Lets bring that up. You said you dont know where the body is. Someone obviously knows. Was it chopped up . Was it dismembered . Do you know that . We are working on this. We are working on this with our turkish colleagues. The public prosecutors continue his line of questioning. And we are intent on determining what happened and we are intent on uncovering all the facts that exist in this case. We want to make sure we know what happened and we want to make sure those responsible will be held to account. Matthew briser, how likely is it that the body of ka shoug ee will ever be found . And how committed do you think the saudi government is to getting to the truth of the matter when it comes to the murder of khashoggi . I think it is unlikely theyll find the body, though we dont know what details president erdogan and the turkish government are going to divulge. President erdogan says tuesday, tomorrow, he says no facts will be hidden. But that doesnt mean you can find the body. To me, foreign minister aljuber are dodging questions. There are alleged facts turkey has provided. Hes addressed none of those issues. He desperately tried to get out of the question and said, well, well see what the independent investigation determines. Again, those facts have been leaking out a weekandahalf now. He also on saturday or sunday yesterday, the crown prince had any culpability, that really rang hollow to me. Right. And President Trump told the Washington Post theres been deception and lies, but he did stop short of blaming the crown prince. What did you make of that . What did you read into that . Well, first of all, yeah, when President Trump said it could have been him, or it might not have been, to me that was the opening of the door for the Saudi Foreign minister to make just a desperate claim that the crown prince wasnt involved. So, to put it differently, it is an incredibly Inconvenient Truth for President Trump, for king salman, for the saudi government if it becomes known that the crown prince was the one who ordered this. So, i think President Trump is hoping that some sort of story will be concocted that will provide enough wiggle room that there will be doubt in the air and business can return to usual at some point in the future after the midterm elections for sure. Now, as you mentioned, turkeys president will reveal more on tuesday, but why has turkey been reluctant so far to reveal all it knows about the death of khashoggi . What is it hoping to achieve by doing that . Is it getting some sort of leverage at this point . I think it is. I think turkey is playing a careful game. Number one, it is quite remarkable that the turkish government has been leaking these details. Had it not, we wouldnt really know anything. Number two, president erdogan i think is still angry at the crown prince for saying a few months ago that turkey is part of a triangle of evil. Thats iran, qatar and turkey. But that said, president erdogan doesnt want to rupture relations with saudi arabia. Saudi arabia is a huge player, a sunni muslim majority population, the keeper of the holy sites, an economic power house, and so i think that maybe president erdogan is dripping out this information stepbystep, precisely for what you said, to have some semblance, some sort of leverage over the saudi government, whether financial, strategic, maybe hoping that saudi arabia will stop pressuring turkeys close friend and ally qatar, but without blowing up the relationship. Right. Just very quickly before you go, in light of what we have learned so far, how should the u. S. And other allies punish the saudis for the murder of khashoggi . I think probably demanding the replacement of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman should be meted out. There should be sanctions against individuals who are culpable. Speaker ryan talked about the magnitsky act. It seems like such a vote will go forward now, so i think at a minimum there should be some cutback on those arms shipments. Beyond that, i guess it will be important to see what sort of punishment is meted out in riyadh against those who are culpable. Its hard to see how a normal relationship with saudi arabia can continue at this point without some form of punishment. Matthew bryzer, thank you for joining us. An apology in the making. Why many says it is too little too late. Plus despite obstacles and literal roadblocks, thousands of migrants are determined to reach the United States. Whats driving them .

Australias Prime Minister is offering an emotional apology to thousands of people who survived institutional child sexual abuse. In a parliamentary speech with survivors in the audience, Scott Morrison said the nation failed its children. His statement comes after a landmark inquiry into rampant sexual abuse that took place over decades. Now will ripley joins us now live from hong kong with more on all of this. So, will, this apology made by the australian Prime Minister was heart felt. It was emotional. But it is a long time coming, isnt it . How significant is this, and how is it received . Reporter not only is this apology coming after a fiveyear study by the royal commission, rosemary, but after decades of systemic institutional child sexual abuse that was kept hidden. And so the apology is being received understandably by some survivors as too little too late. They feel that the institutions that have been complicit in the abuse of so many children, 8,000 victims uncovered by this study. And, of course, that is probably only scratching the surface. You can bet that there are many more who havent been interviewed. Cases that havent been discovered. Theres nothing that can be done to compensate those people and their families for the pain that they have endured, and really the lifelong implications that can help to many survivors of child sexual abuse, everything from substance abuse, to Mental Health struggles. But the Prime Minister did, nonetheless, make a vow that australia will now take ownership of this issue and will take steps to help victims come forward and feel brave enough to speak out and to know that when they do that, they will be believed. They will not have their cries for help cast aside as they were for so many decades. Listen to what the Prime Minister talked about when he addressed specifically the issue of sexual abuse in the church because 60 of those 8,000 survivors that were interviewed suffered abuse at the hands of clergy. As a Prime Minister, i am angry, too, at the calculating destruction of lives and the abuse of trust, including those who have abused the shield of faith and religion to hide their crimes, a shield that is supposed to protect the innocent, not the not guilty, and i stand condemned. The Prime Minister Scott Morrison spoke with one activist in australia Chrissy Foster whose story is truly heart breaking. She is a mother of three, three daughters. Two of her daughters were abused by a local priest that they trusted growing up. One of the daughters ended up taking her own life. She overdosed, and the other was in a car accident that left her disabled after a binge drinking incident. It goes to show how their physical scars on top of the emotional ones so many of these victims have endured, rosemary. It is simply devastating. Our will ripley bringing us details live from hong kong. Many thanks to you. Just days after the u. S. Announce it had would pull out of a Key Nuclear Treaty with russia, a top National Security advisor could come face to face with vladimir putin. The kremlin says a meeting between the two is being prepared during john boltons trip to moscow. Bolton landed there just a short time ago. On sunday, one of the men behind the agreement, former soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev told infer fax news agency rejecting the treaty is a mistake. Fred platkin has the story.

It stands for intermediate nuclear forces. The treaty was signed in 1987 between the u. S. And soviet union and ultimately led to almost 2700 medium range Nuclear Missiles being withdrawn. Experts saying by and large, the agreement has worked. It was designed to provide a measure of strategic stability on the continent of europe by banning missiles of a range between 300 and 3,400 miles, both cruise and ballistic missiles. So it it was really meant to take the temperature down and it resulted in the destruction of literally thousands of missiles and it has been in effect ever since. Reporter russia denies violating the treaty and accuses the u. S. Of breaching it by developing antimissile systems. Vladimir putin recently making what some felt were troubling remarks about possible nuclear warfare. Translator in this situation, we kind of expect that someone will use Nuclear Weapons against us. We do not do anything ourselves. Well, yes, but then the aggressor should still know that vengeance is inevitable, that he will be destroyed, and we are the victims of aggression. And as martyrs, we will go to heaven and they will simply die. Reporter the u. S. Also believes the inf treaty puts it at a disadvantage versus a resurgent china which is not part of the agreement. Another reason the Administration Says the pull out of a deal. Cnn, moscow. Mexican Authorities Say more than 1,000 migrants have requested asylum there over the past three days, but huge crowds are still trying to reach the United States. Despite the fact that President Trump says they are not welcome. On sunday, he tweeted this. Full efforts are being made to stop the onslaught of illegal aliens from crossing our southern border. Adding, that the u. S. Will turn away anyone who doesnt apply for asylum in mexico. The migrants journey through Central America has been grueling. Cnns bill weir shows us what theyve gone through so far. Reporter after 24 hours stuck on a bridge between nations, the caravan finds another way. Most go back to the guatemala side and pay a few pace os for an inner tube ride, while others pry a hole in the fence and jump. While the stress of it all is too much for the sick and the weak, a few of the strongest manage to scavage a ladder and rope and help others down including a mother. The migrants on the bank gasp and cheer as she is lowered to the bank. Yes, we can, is the chant. After a splash of relief from the heat and the thirst, she looks up anxiously for her babies.

The little boy was fascinated by the riot gear and helmets and one member of the federalis displayed touching humanity amid all the chaos. I assumed his family was among the lucky few allowed through for processing, but they were actually separated from candy in the teargas panic. So she went back to find her and another way north. What made you decide to climb onto that ladder . Translator to complete the dream that i have. Reporter this bridge, this river, they cant stop me, she says. I am an all terrain woman. But there are people who see what just happened and say youre using your child as a shield to break the law. Translator i dont think we are abusing the kids, she says. We cant leave them at home. They have to eat. I want them to study, have a good future. I do this for my kids. I ask you with all my heart, wouldnt your mother do the same for you . Reporter do you know that President Trump is threatening to use soldiers to keep you out . And he has even separated families. Hes taken children like these away from their mothers. You know this . She knows, she says, but she has faith in god. He has the final word. In town, they are met with cheers from fellow travelers and a bit of mexican hospitality. There is shelter here and advice from human rights workers and precious nourishment for the kids. She borrows a phone to call her mom. Theyre okay, she tells her, and are not turning back.

The transport Ministry Says about 180 other people are injured. Several train carriages were overturned in the incident. Officials are still investigating what caused it. We are just 15 days away from the u. S. Midterm elections. Their results could change the trajectory of d trajectory of Donald Trumps presidency and indeed the country. Voters will head to the polls and decide whether republicans deserve to keep the house and the senate or the democrats to serve as something of a check for President Trump for the rest of his current term in office. The state of florida is home to some key races this year. There is a senate seat up for grabs and voters will choose a new governor. A new cnn poll shows the democrats have a big lead. Democrat an grew gillum is up 12 points against his republican rival ron desantis. On sunday, cnns jake tapper hosted a debate for the two candidates, and heres what they had to say about immigration. We should not be terrorizing people here in this country who are babies, that are nursing with their parents, with their mothers. Right now we have no real comprehensive way to deal with this challenge. And what ive simply said is what were not going to become here in the state of florida is a state where we basically become a show me your paper state based off the color of somebodys skin, the language that they speak, what neighborhood they live in. Thats not the american way. That is not who we are as floridians. Im concerned about mayor gillums platform about abolishing immigration and Customs Enforcement and having an open border and having a sanctuary city and sanctuary state. Thats a wet kiss to the drug cartels. We have a major opioid epidemic. Most of that is being fueled not by Prescription Medications but fentanyl sent in from china and Central America and across the border. He says he wont cooperate with the Trump Administration with respect to illegal immigration. But if someone is here illegally and they are committing a criminal offense, youve got to honor the detainer request. And viewers outside the u. S. Can catchall of the Florida Governors debate coming up in an hour from now on cnn. Its 4 00 p. M. For viewers in hong kong and 9 00 in the morning for viewers in london.

Volunteers are calling voters cell phones in spanish. In they have, organized labor, most of them latinos going door to door, but signs that turnout trouble may be looming. The numbers are alarming sometimes, but we have to dig a little deeper. Reporter what do you mean the numbers are alarming . Theyre not registering support or theyre undecideds. Theyre holding back on choosing who theyre going to vote for. Reporter a voting block democrats hoped would surge in the upcoming midterm election. If the emphasis were put on the latino vote thats put on suburban white women, what kind of game changer would that be . We would be represented. Right now were not represented. Reporter the latino vote could significantly impact midterm races in these states with high hispanic populations. After two years of President Trumps animosity from separating families at the u. S. mexico border to antiimmigrant rhetoric. Theyre not sending their finest. That i can tell you. And were sending them the hell back. I dont like to vote. Reporter some told us they just rather stay home. They dont do nothing for us. I just dont want to at all. Reporter you dont feel you have a say, you dont have more of a say in government if you vote . No, the government doesnt help us for nothing. Reporter the latino voter turnout rate in midterms has dropped since 2006. In 2018, candidates across the country are going bilingual. On both sides of the aisle. But its the democrats who are counting on latino turnout to win seats in congress. Do you feel that the democratic establishment is paying enough attention to the latino vote . Not enough, but there are inroads. Little by little i think were getting to the numbers. And by them paying attention, then you can motivate them to turnout. And that was cnns ken law reporting there. A new category 5 strength hurricane is churning across the pacific ocean, and in its path are mexico and parts of the u. S. State of texas. Lets turn to our meteorologist pedram javaheri. He joins us from the cnn Weather Center. This category 5, pedram, who is in the path of this . Its almost there sitting at 155 miles per hour. So negligible difference between that and 157, which is what dictates a category 5. But willa is not a lolone. Very similar to what we saw with Hurricane Michael at landfall, exact same wind speeds, of course exact same category. Were talking about a storm that went from a category 1 to a category 4 within a 36hour period. Once again, similar to what we saw with Hurricane Michael just about two weeks ago. This particular system sitting just west of mexico, and at this point you look at this alone, across the pacific, eastern pacific in particular, weve had ten major hurricanes so far in 2018, tying second alltime and only one major hurricane behind 2015 for the alltime record. But we do have hurricane watches, hurricane warnings in plays. To has mazatlan, per we think i weaken a little bit. Bring it potentially down to a category 3. Still a major hurricane at landfall. Mazatlan tuesday going into wednesday. That story is a part of whats happening here on the coast of mexico. To the south, Tropical Storm vicente parked in place. The good news with this one, it is going to be predominantly a rain maker. The bad news is willa will produce solve rainfall, potentially 2 feet in some spots, this comes in as a tropical depression. The rain on top of a recently falling hurricane is not going to be good news across that region, rosemary. Certainly isnt. We thank you, pedram, for keeping a close eye on this and on the situation. Thanks again. Well, no one seems to be above the law in chinas big anticorruption drive. Celebrities and otherwise rich or powerful players can find themselves gone without much of a trace.

Well, human rights advocates say two recent disappearances in china should be a wake up call about whats going on there. The activists say the message from communist leaders is clear. No one is too big, and anyone could be next. Cnns matt rivers reports. Reporter the alist actress and the interpol chief, two of chinas most Famous International citizens, and yet in president xi jinpings authoritarian security state, each has proved powerless. Fan bing bing is one of the biggest stars. They accused the actress of not paying proper taxes and in weeks she vanished. No one saw her in months. In 2016 he became the president of interpol. He disappeared. His wife told cnn his wifes last message to him was a knife emoji. Translator at the beginning i couldnt be certain what happened to him. Then after i received his message, i knew that he was in danger. Reporter he has been accused of taking bribes and other crimes, but remains missing. Both disappearances are part of xi jinpings domestic policy, a ruthless anticorruption drive estimated to have netted more than 1 million government officials so far, plus big fish, too. A good way for xi to get rid of enemies and terrorize their families. I dont know his life or what happened. Reporter it is a feeling she knows well. Her husband is also in state custody. She hasnt seen or spoken to him in more than three years. My biggest fear right now is whether or not hell come out of jail alive. She has protested for his release, too, but her husband isnt rich. Hes just a middle class human rights laura cues of subversion of state power imprisoned with other lawyers and activists since 2015. They are often held in socalled black jails, unable to communicate with the outside world. Prisoners weve spoken to allege torture though china denies it. We found one of those jails in 2016. And to be honest, we didnt know what to expect when we were walking up here. But around here it is relatively quiet. That is an unassuming building, but it does belie what activists say what goes on inside. On wednesday, back in beijing, we saw fan bing bing in public for the first time in four months leaving the airport. She was accused of tax fraud, fined nearly 130 million. The only way, it seems, to emerge from the ranks of the disappeared is to grovel at the foot of the state. Without the favorable policies of the communist party and state, there would have been no fan bing bing, she wrote on social media, her only Public Statement so far. In china, it doesnt matter if youre a huge official or a famous actress. If they can disappear, anyone can. It means anyone can be next. For chinas president xi jinping, the countrys most powerful leader in decades, and the man donald trump calls a good friend, there is no celebrity too big or human rights lawyer too small who cant be taken down as a threat.

Charged a Russian National with funding online propaganda last week. Authorities say she worked for a russian troll group that tried to wreak havoc in the 2016 u. S. Election. She allegedly was working on the 2018 vote as well. More recently, twitter says its taken down a suspected bot network sending pro saudi messages, and they were parroting saudi government talking points about the disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi. And not all this misinformation is political. A cnn investigation identified a network of 1700 suspicious facebook pages. They were designed to look like they were run by local womens march organizers. In reality, they were a coordinated effort run out of bangladesh to sell merchandise like tshirts. Well, cnn business Senior Technology correspondent lori siegl looks at how facebook is fighting other similar threats. Reporter the room isnt that big. Just enough space for around 20 people and their computers. But the undertaking is enormous. Its really the culmination of two years of massive investments weve made. Reporter just weeks ahead of the midterm election, facebook has created what its calling the war room. We have a bunch of dashboards you see around the perimeter of the room which actually are backed up by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to be able to flag any anomalies or problems we see. Once that happens our data sign tiflts are able to review it, understand whats happening, and pass it along to our engineers and operations specialists to take action against harmful content that we were see on our platform. Reporter its been nearly two years since facebook was caught flatfooted. There was the russian interference aimed at manipulating the 2016 president ial election. A privacy scandal that lets users wondering if they could trust the platform. Now Ceo Mark Zuckerberg has vow today get ahead of the issues and facebooks new war room is part of those efforts. They are actually monitoring our systems in real time for any sort of new threats we may see, investigate them, and then make decisions about how to take action against violating content that we see on our platform to prevent it from going viral. Reporter leading up to the midterm elections, this room will be operating 24 7. The people in this room are supported by the 20,000 facebook employees across the globe hired to work on safety and security. We have actually been running this for the first brazilian election last week. During that time we saw a spike in potential Voter Suppression related content. Reporter two years after the 2016 election, the attacks have changed. Nathaniel glacier who seshd on Barack Obamas National Security council now leads facebooks efforts to r for troll and suppression campaigns. If you have sophisticated actors, they devolve their tactics. They dont do the same thing again and again. We think about our threat model. What are the new challenges that are coming .
