1:02 pm
only on cnn hello again, everyone. thank you so much for joining me. fredricka whitfield. we begin with a major development in the war in gaza after months of intense fighting israel says, it is withdrawing its ground forces from the southern city of khan yunis, israel described the area as a major hamas stronghold. and it put together its biggest ever military division for the operation there as the city became a key battleground in the war, were also learning that israel's planned reopening of the erez border crossing in the north gaza is being delayed. it would have allowed for more aid to flow into gaza. today's developments follow a call last week between president biden and really prime minister benjamin netanyahu and sources tell cnn that during that call president biden gave netanyahu a list of things that he wanted to see done to ease the human suffering in gaza and it all
1:03 pm
comes as israel marks a grim milestone. it has been exactly six months today since hamas attacked we've got full coverage for you, priscilla alvarez is in washington. nic robertson and jerusalem and ben wedeman in beirut. priscilla, you first, what more we learning about the phone call between biden and netanyahu >> well, sources are sharing more about the pressure that was placed by president biden in this 30 minute call with the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. last week. of course, this was a call that came at a critical moment and was put on the books after the deaths of those world central kitchen employees were killed in an israeli air or strike. now, the president, according to sources tick through what changes in policy he wanted to see from israel primarily focused on getting more humanitarian aid into gaza that included opening up a land crossing, as well as a port and also ramping up supplies into the region. now, according to a
1:04 pm
source israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu replied by saying that they were going to do just that. but the president went further saying he wanted to see those announcements soon. and in the hours that follow that call, the israeli security cabinet did approve those measures. now the white house up until this point has welcome the moves that have occurred since that phone call, but said that it's also not enough and that more is still needed on the horizon. take a listen to national security council spokesperson john kirby this morning the announcements. >> israelis have made while welcome and important can't be the end of it. we've got to see sustained changes in the way they're operating on the ground and the way they are allowing humanitarian assistance to get in unmolested now, the us has maintained its support of israel and its right to defend itself. and what they're making clear now is that there could be a change in the way the us is addressing this conflict of israel doesn't make changes. of course what that is still remains to be seen all right.
1:05 pm
priscilla, thanks so much. and nic, their in jerusalem talk more about this israeli withdrawal from khan yunis and what that means the idf is sort of giving it a big push if you will, they're saying the saying that this is effectively marking the >> end of ground operations in gaza in the current form. they're leaving a sizable force in the north, 167 i can division, but the biggest division. and it has been by far the biggest division created for the fight in khan yunis since israel's inception as a state it has been fighting that the 98th division since december early december, they've lost a number of troops they've found perhaps some of the biggest, deepest and most complex of the tunnel networks. they had a fight there, which, which the division commander described to me as like fight, fighting an
1:06 pm
attack a truce puzzle where you sort of get one piece in place and then you find that hamas has come up behind you because the tunnel network, you can take the ground on the ground, but you have no idea where hamas are underneath you. so it's taken a long time for the fight there. and the idf is saying that they've had big successes there however, they're pulling the troops out. they say to recuperate and prepare for their next missions there, indicating even that they could be used in rafah to go into the southern city of gaza where the idf says there are still four battalions of of hamas holding out, whether 1.5 million people >> but it >> does appear to be a significant mood and can contribute to perhaps an improved dynamic at the negotiating table in cairo. so potentially this could over a few days help pave the way towards a ceasefire and hostage
1:07 pm
negotiation deal that hasn't been pulled off yet. >> all right. nic robertson in jerusalem. thanks so much. ben wedeman, you in beirut, israel is also saying today that it's preparing to move to attack posture from defense on the border with lebanon and hezbollah and senate majority leader chuck schumer, also saying the us is prepared for any potential iran attack. so help assess what's going on here >> are really here in lebanon fears of a broadening of the conflict to a regional war have escalated following the monday is rarely attack on the iranian consulate in damascus, which lead two senior commanders of the islamic revolutionary guard dead. we've heard repeated statements from senior iranian officials that revenge is inevitable, and therefore, obviously, nerves are on edge
1:08 pm
here and today, for instance, the israeli military qatari, put out a statement which began readiness for the transition from defense to offense. in arabic, however, it came across as preparing to move from defense to attack. now, when you read further into the text, both in arabic and english it sounds more like preparations for the possibility of of hostilities, talking about getting, making sure that the equipment and the personnel or either in place or ready to deploy. nonetheless, against the background of all that people here certainly saw this and we're quite alarmed coming after a few days when the israeli military announced that all combat units there leaves were canceled and also yesterday has bellow was able to shoot down and is rarely hermes 900 drone, a very
1:09 pm
advanced drone. and we saw yesterday there were ten separate his butler strikes on israeli targets on the other side of the border. so take it in all together. it certainly is reason for concern particularly if you're in lebanon >> all right. >> ben wedeman nic robertson, and priscilla alvarez. thanks to all let me appreciate it for more on all these developments now, under the middle east, let's bring in cnn global affairs analyst, former defense secretary under president trump, mark esper. i'm good to see you. so this move by the israeli military to withdraw from khan yunis, let's focus on that first what does that signal to you about the idf's ground operations in gaza and its intent >> yeah. first of all, good afternoon, fredricka. good to be with you >> it's a little unclear to me frankly why they would do this now you know, typically if you're conducting what we call military operations on urban terrain. you don't pull troops
1:10 pm
out of areas that you've seized and cleared because the concern is that the enemy in this case, hamas militants will come in behind you and either continue to fight from behind you where attack you from behind. and that's what we saw a couple of weeks ago at the al hospital complex where all of a sudden, the idf found itself fighting hundreds of hamas militants. they killed a couple of hundred, they captured 700 more. so it's a little unclear to me, keep in mind too that khan yunis has also the hometown of yahya sinwar, the leader of hamas in in gaza. and he's the man that they're going after presumably he is now in rafah with other senior hamas leaders, as are those remaining four hamas battalions. so it's a little unclear as to why they're doing this. are they doing it, making a transition or are they trying is it a gesture to hamas? for the negotiating negotiations in cairo to kind of pick up some speed and some more seriousness. who knows >> well, are you satisfied with israel's effort or lack
1:11 pm
thereof to show proof of benefits from its strategy is it your feeling or is it even your experience that israel is conveying that the military operatives are conveying that those kinds of accomplishments to say the department of defense or even white house during that phone call, say with the president well, first of all, there's two sides to this coin and they're not mutually exclusive. the first is the israel has the right to defend itself and prosecute this war against hamas and erotic kate, the leadership and destroy its military capabilities. i think they are in need to go into rafah to do that. but at the same time, they need to do a whole lot more when it comes to expanding humanitarian aid and assistance and reducing collateral damage and the killing of civilians. and i'm disappointed to hear this morning, but maybe they shut down the erez crossing again after promising president biden 24, 48 hours ago that they would open it up. i think they should try and open up more crossings. and of course,
1:12 pm
i think they should increase the number of inspectors to increase the throughput as a result. so clearly they need to do more on that front also. >> but it >> also like to add as your reporters played out, they have a tough game here. i mean, they're they're looking at three fronts on the military side between hamas in gaza has built and lebanon and now were very concerned about a pending iran i mean, attack somewhere. and then they have to deal with the political side of this. the political side being domestic politics and israel dealing with president biden 101. and then they have a broader international community that is continues to pressure them to do more on the humanitarian side of things. so it's a really complex, difficult again i should games probably not the right word, but tasked for prime minister netanyahu and israel's leadership. >> and then you perhaps heard from our reporter ben wedeman there that there is also the issue of lost in translation, that the interpretation of that move could be misconstrued trued. does that give you
1:13 pm
pause? are you concerned about whether this war in the region could escalate, could spread as a result absolutely certainly when it comes to a hezbollah and southern lebanon the fighting, the exchange of artillery and rockets and >> missiles has been going on now for six months today, of course, being the sixth month and we were always concerned that at some point that might break out and look, there's been tens of thousands of israelis displaced from northern israel as a result, hundreds of hezbollah militants killed that said his blood does not want to expand this war. the lebanese people do not want to see an expanded war because the last time has blocked. and israel went to war. it was really bad for these people. so i think on the lebanese his blood side, they don't want the conflict that expand probably israelis two at this point in time. but the wildcard right now remains iran because of what happened last week with the killing of senior irgc generals in syria. and of
1:14 pm
course, syria until same extent, lebanon are both launching points for iranian attacks against israel so that's why i think people are on on their nerves over there right now. >> all right. former defense secretary mark esper. thanks so much >> thank you. fredreka >> coming up we're just hours away now from the solar eclipse and excitement is building how cities and towns along the path of totality are preparing for tomorrow's out of this world moment >> but >> severe storms could threatened the view for some people a look at the forecasts after the break >> we'll play national championship. this is the greatest stage and all the sport what dreams are made of >> they talk about we will see you in phoenix >> oh troubles in body. you

1:22 pm
>> is in cleveland and you've got friends that will be accompanying you there as well so today, what's the scene look like? >> it's all happening in cleveland not only is the eclipse having on monday and the end, than cwa final four women's is happening now. so this place is sort of clear it out. this is the great lakes science center tomorrow, 30,000 people plus maybe piled into this area. >> the weather has been fabulous the last two days and is looking pretty good tomorrow as well interestingly, this is the only seal is nasa stuff here, the glenn research center's in cleveland. it's the only nasa facility in the path of totality. so nasa is here and force around three, p.m. the subtle be right about there. these clouds of just come over today. and that's where we expect to see that incredible of son with the plasma coming off of it would
1:23 pm
be just an incredible show. i am convinced it is going to be blue skies tomorrow, the last time they had a total eclipse here 1806, the next time, i guess 420 years. so get here and see it. >> oh, no, we can't wait for 400 more years for something like this to happen. oh, no, that now is the moment right here >> all right. miguel, we're going to find out from lisa, right now. so cloud cover, no cloud cover for our friends and cleveland and indianapolis there are some better places. okay. when in indianapolis with some clearer skies and even if you have clouds in urine totality, you'll see that darkness. you'll feel that darkness. it's a matter of if you can see the corona and all the other fun things about the sun. if you have the clouds or not, but that's severe threat and texas is growing. i mean, we haven't enhanced ands teresa will three out of five now, just to the northwest there of dallas are very large hail damaging winds. and isolated tornadoes. and you can see the storm's do at least hold off until after the eclipse really starting to
1:24 pm
flourish after about three 4:00. but once it does, it's looking like it'd be pretty rainy so when downloads, you're looking at mostly cloudy skies as you are totally eclipse at 1:42 p.m. you can see we have find some of these clouds going up into arkansas. you've got that bright spot in the ohio valley where things are clear and then some clouds over a place like rochester. so you've got the clouds in rochester, new york as you hit your total eclipse at three 20 little rock, a few clouds there too. >> and >> something that you'll also feel is the temperatures drop once you hit there'll be a little bit cooler once you lose the sun. i think that's really neat. i make, you know, so if you are not, if you, if you don't feel like visually that's enough. you we're just gonna it's gonna be a total all body experience, quite frankly all right, at least that thank you so much. appreciate that. let's talk more about this and get even more perspective on the solar eclipse. alfredo va guess, is president of the new york amateur astronomers association. alfredo with us now, good to see you. you are a
1:25 pm
lifelong space, not i understand your words. and you gave me permission to use that >> what are your thoughts on what will be a real rarity of a moment tomorrow >> well i'm really excited. this will be my second eclipse. first one, i took my family to jackson hole in 2017 and we had a great time. my kids stopped complaining after the eclipse was like the best experience inspiring experience. that. so it was, it was, it was really, it was really amazing for him for most of us, you haven't experienced the eclipse and experiencing the clips that in you're not in the path of totality is totally different. you really have to be in the path of totality to get the full experience and to get that sort of sublime experience with the. total darkness is setting in and the quiet paul, that sense across setting. the animals died down. even the insects die down. it's just amazing experience. and as you and as your previous segment,
1:26 pm
the temperature really drops when we were up in jackson hole. i mean, i remember my teeth were chattering. that's how cold it got. it went from like 72, 45 and linked to that was that's a bigger drop than the ten degrees that most people fahrenheit are supposed to expect. so you are in that path of totality, right? so your position just it's right >> yeah. yeah. i'm open stove with my wife and i got brought to my little telescopes here. then i'm going to use to capture the sun and hopefully do a little bit about amateur science as well. what all i'm at it. >> so given that you have experienced at least one before, what do you telling your friends and family? what to expect how how are you kind of guiding them on how to prepare for the many phases leading up to that total eclipse. and then enjoying an in the total eclipse when it happens for just four minutes, but it's going to be an extraordinary four minutes. >> well, it depends how geeky
1:27 pm
want to be, right? really want to be a total geek >> call mcphee. >> yeah >> baily's beads is an amazing, amazing experience. basically, when the lunar mountains effectively block out some of the additional light and you actually see these bright spots. it's just, you have to have a kind of a telescope to see that, but that's really an amazing experience. i'm going to hope to capture that on this setting, but i think my advice to people is don't overthink it because it's a once in a lifetime thing in sometimes when you're when you're when you're being stressed about or wherever you're gonna you're gonna forget to look up. just look up an experience that i mean, it's it's the cosmos and the scale of the cosmos is, this is one of these moments when you can almost commune with, with all other humans no, it really, it really shows us where we are in the scope of university in its vastness since its intricate workings, right? and it really brings us down to the basics of who we are as humans, right? i'm i'll share this. we can offer all the things that are bothering us and all the global conflicts
1:28 pm
and partisans ships that we all have and all these issues that are plaguing humanity and we can all kind of bond and really realize our insignificance in the vastness of the cosmos. it's really kind of one of these trends in experiences. yeah you were helping me feel at ease and i'm feeling a moment right now they're worth >> i can send out oh, that's lovely. >> we're all looking forward to it tomorrow. and now even more so after hearing you speak alfredo vegas. thank you so much. enjoy tomorrow, it will be out of this it's where i'll join cnn for a special live coverage eclipse across america begins tomorrow. 1:00 p.m. eastern right here on and then or stream it on max. and we'll be right back >> get your viewing glasses ready? experience, so rare, it won't happen again for another two decades. joint cnn for live coverage around the country of

designer brands, it has the designers that get your heart racing. had inside a prices new every day, hurrying, they'll be gone in a flash designer sales at up to the 70% or so up gilt.com today are today marks six months into israel's war with hamas. and now more than ever, journalists covering the conflict are in the most recent numbers show at least 94 journalists have been killed in gaza israel, and lebanon since the deadly october 7 attacks. i want to discuss this more with jodi ginsburg, the president of the committee to protect journalists. jodi, great to see you sadly, on this sort of discussion, but being worked correspondent has always been one of the world's most dangerous jobs. has it gotten even more dangerous through this conflict >> well this conflict is certainly the deadliest conflict that the committee to protect dollars has ever documented as you say, more
1:34 pm
than 95 journalists, we believed to have been killed since the start of the war. 90 of those palestinians. >> and of >> course, being a war correspondent has always been dangerous profession, but it's really important to remember the context of this particular conflict that all of those journalists currently reported on the war inside gaza are gaza and journalists, they're not all correspondence. they're journalists who happened to find themselves in an award, no international journalists have been able to go into gaza, except on very tightly controlled tours organized by the israeli army. so these aren't war correspondents in the traditional sense. they're journalists who happened to be covering more. and it's extremely dangerous for them from going into the territory as you mentioned, number of the journalists who have died were already living in country. they're in gaza palestinians their family members, et cetera. so then talk to me
1:35 pm
about how the stories are getting out. i mean, people are risking everything. those who are in gaza, those who are able to continue to the work. what are they doing? what are the great lengths that they are taking an order to get the stories out >> let's becoming harder and harder to do it. there are fewer journalists reporting. many of those journalists who were reporting have had to flee, find refuge, go to refuse g camps. they're trying to report when many of them have had their own homes bombed, so they don't have formal shelter. they're suffering as other gazans are from a lack of food, lack of fuel, they're trying to find connections for their phones. and often we've seen lengthy periods where communications have been cut. so those are the ways that they're it's still trying. they're still going to the hospitals to report on the aftermath of bombings. there's still going to the refugee
1:36 pm
camps, but there's fewer and fewer of them doing it. and now they've been doing this for six months. and increasingly, less food, less fuel, nowhere to be safe and no rest bite traditionally when you cover a war, often you will have crews of people coming in and coming out so that you can get a break. that's what's happened in ukraine's. >> but that's not happening here >> last week, israel's parliament, the knesset, passed a law allowing the government to halt the broadcasting of al jazeera in israel and prime minister benjamin netanyahu labeled al-jazeera a terrorist channel and accused it of harming israel security and your group is calling on when the israeli government not to shut them down. have you received a response and your efforts >> we haven't yet received a response and efforts and we very much continue to call this law not to be implemented. it doesn't just apply to al-jazeera, applied to any foreign news outlet trying to
1:37 pm
