hello and welcome to our viewers in the united states and all around the world, i'm bianca nobilo in london.

ahead on "cnn newsroom." it became clear that president magill didn't really seem to have a very strong grasp on the situation on the ground on campus. >> fallout at the university of pennsylvania, both the president and the chair of the board resigning. we will have the latest reaction from the college and its students. plus, gaza shelters are teaming with infectious diseases. i will speak to an official in gaza about the rampant spread of diseases among the displaced. and we will also take you live to dough hoe where some of the leading voices are discussing regional diplomacy options for the israel-hamas war. ♪ university of pennsylvania president liz magill and the head of the school's board of

trustees have resigned. it comes after the intense backlash to the comments made by three u.s. university presidents to congress about anti-semitism on their campuses. now, this all began amid a wave of protests over the israel-hamas war. many at college campuses, many of them expressing support for the palestinian cause, but there is a debate over whether phrases such as from the river to the sea amount to a call to eradicate israel. magill and the presidents of harvard and mit struggled to answer a congressman's question about where universities would draw the line. >> specifically calling for the genocide of jews, does that constitute bullying or harassment? >> if it is directed and severe and pervasive it is harassment. >> so the answer is yes. >> it is a context-dependent decision, congresswoman. >> it's a context depend anti-semite decision, that's your testimony, calling for the

genocide of jews is depending upon the context? >> he will ease stefanik had a blunt response to magill's resignation, one down, two doing. it polo sandoval explains what happened here. >> reporter: in back to back resignations the president of the university of pennsylvania announcing that she would step down just moments before the university official who made her announcement announced that he, too, would be resigning. liz magill announced on saturday that she would be stepping down from her position as u penn president. per university statement she will remain tenured faculty at the university's law school and agreed to stay on board while they find an interim replacement. as we've reported before, students, faculty, even donors say that they lost confidence in magill after tuesday's pretty disastrous hearing in which she, long with the presidents of

harvard and mit failed to explicitly say that calls for genocide of jews would immediately violate the respective university's codes of conduct. moments after magill's saturday evening announcement scott vox said that he would be stepping down as chairman of the board of trustees at the university. in his statement writing, quote, former president liz magill last week made a very unfortunate misstep. he writes following that it became clear that her position was no longer tenable and she and i concurrently decided that it was time for her to exit. also defending magill calling her a good person, a talented leader and in his words not the slightest bit anti-semitism. also sharing some perspective about what may have been magill's state of mind the day of this disastrous hearing on the hill, saying that magill was not herself at the time, that she was overlawyered, that she was -- and that she provided a legalistic answer to what was a

moral question and that, he says, was wrong. polo sandoval, cnn, new york. it is just past noon in gaza and israeli air strikes and ground operations are ongoing across the strip. some of the fiercest battles are said to be in and around the southern city of khan yunis which the idf was described as a hamas stronghold. the israeli military is telling people to leave, specific areas, although due to poor communications it isn't clear if palestinians are able to receive those warnings. two large explosions at a building in central gaza early on saturday set off a frantic scramble to pull victims from the wreckage. one woman said their situation was unbearable. >> translator: the people died. we were asleep with the children. the tower was full, maybe 150 families.

150 families. we woke up to the bombing. look, none of this is our fault. we are already crushed under press. there is no benefit for us at all. we are ruled by iron and fire and then the wars. i don't know. people have died. everyone has died. they might as well kill us collectively and that would be the end of it. all people have died and have been displaced. we are under pressure and we are hungry. >> the hamas-run health ministry in gaza claims more than 17,000 people have been killed in gaza and nearly 49,000 wounded since the war began two months ago. cnn can't verify those figures. we are following all of this here in london. elliott, what is the latest on the ground? >> reporter: intense fighting continuing earlier this morning israel saying that it carried out more than 250 strikes on targets over the previous day including on a military communications center run by hamas adjacent to a mosque that

was in the southern part of the strip. now, there's also been intense fighting throughout in other cities in the gaza strip, we have also heard from, for example, hamas itself talking about fierce battles from zero distance taking place. israel also saying that it's closing in on the command and control centers it says hamas has been maintaining in the northern part of the strip. i also released striking video footage of soldiers firing automatic weapons and rocket propelled grenades at militants in the streets of gaza strip and also a raid on a house in gaza, throwing grenades in there, you see the explosions taking place and afterwards the blurred images of the militants israel says it killed in that particular battle. bianca, 17,700 is the hamas-run health ministry's total for the number of people killed, israel saying at least 7,000 militants have been killed by israel since it launched its attacks on hamas in the wake of the attack on october 7th but we can't verify

either of those figures. >> elliott, do you have any updates on the hostages still being held by hamas. >> the latest is there are 137 hostages being killed. israel did say there was another death of a 25-year-old hajj, one sasha barra who was also killed. it also said in a raid israel tried to tree a hostage, didn't say it was specifically sasha, tried to free them unsuccessfully and soldiers were wounded in that account. israel determined to release those hostages, there were more demonstrations in tel aviv yesterday calling for the israeli government to do more and the international community to do more and they heard first-person testimonies from people, a 77-year-old woman talking about when she was held militants took away her oxygen canister, they were deprived of sleep, food, medications as well and this continues to be very much uppermost in the mind of the government of israel as it tries to not just destroy hamas

and prevent it from continuing to govern inside the gaza strip but also to try to get those 137 hostages, men, women and children, back home into israel. bianca. >> elliott gotkine, thank you for joining us all morning. the war was left israel's relations with turkey severely strained. turkish president ray sip type erred won was called israel a terrorist state, but the two stations still have strong trade ties which could prevent a total diplomatic breakdown. >> reporter: this is the voice of israel's domestic intelligence chief played out in a recording obtained by israel's kahn tv. in it he vows to take out hamas no matter where they are. >> translator: the cabinet said it's a go, in the words of the street it is to eliminate hamas and we are determined to do it, everywhere, in gaza, israel, lebanon, turkey, qatar,

everywhere. >> reporter: in response turkey which has hosted hamas leaders before issued a warning. according to officials who spoke with a state news agency, there will be serious consequences if israel attempts to carry out assassinations in turkey. this latest exchange shows how far the relationship between the two countries has fallen since the war began. from this first ever handshake between president erdogan and prime minister netanyahu in september to statements like these just weeks later. >> translator: hamas is not a terrorist organization but a liberation group that struggles to protect its land and citizens. i say very clearly and frankly that israel is a terrorist state. netanyahu who is a butcher of gaza beyond being a war criminal will certainly be tried as a butcher of gaza. >> reporter: netanyahu said last

month that israel refuses any lectures from turkey saying that erdogan supports the terror state of hamas and bombed turkish villages inside turkey itself, a reference to its decades long war against kurdish militants. >> they hate one another. >> how far back has this war set israeli and turkish relations? >> well, so long as bibi and erdogan are in power i don't think they will meet again. >> reporter: relations go back more than 70 years when turkey became the first muslim-majority country to recognize israel. but the palestinian issue has always been a sore spot. after nine turks and an american of turkish origin were killed by israeli troops en route to gaza. since the war began turkey has seen huge pro-palestinian rallies, one led by the

president himself. president erdogan was cut off communications with prime minister netanyahu and turkey has recalled its ambassador to israel, but there are still billions of dollars in annual trade between turkey and israel that hasn't gone away. >> trade relations continue, flights continue, oil goes to -- oil goes to israel through the strait. so long as turkey and israel believe that strategically they need one another, however the political relations might be, this is going to continue. >> reporter: some ordinary turks and institutions have been publicly boycotting brands with alleged links to israel and turkey says that since the war began trade has dropped by more than half, driven by consumers and traders, rather than any official sanctions. and despite the growing outrage and fiery rhetoric, erdogan insists that turkey can still broker peace. >> what he seeks is to be a

partner to a resolution. >> it doesn't seem like calling israel a terrorist state is likely to -- >> he thinks he can walk back from that. >> he hasn't gone too far? >> i doubt that he thinks that way. whether or not the others think that way, we will see when this war is over. >> reporter: scott mclean, cnn, istanbul. turning to the u.s. where a state of emergency has been declared in some communities in eastern tennessee after twisters swept through the area. an eyewitness captured video of this tornado as it moved over madison, causing electrical flashes and an explosion. >> oh, [ bleep ]. oh my god. >> at least six people are dead and nearly two dozen are injured. this is the scene in clarksville on saturday where buildings were torn to shreds. the mayor lamented our hearts are broken. officials say they are still in

a search and rescue phase and are trying to see if there are any more casualties. authorities are urging residents to stay away from the damaged areas as emergency crews work. witnesses described what happened. >> walls bursted, the windows bursted, everything just like exploded. this is what it really felt like, it felt like everything exploded, like a lot of pressure built up and just popped. leaders are meeting in qatar for the doha forum and the palestinian prime minister has just weighed in on whether israel can achieve its goal of eliminating hamas. we will have a live report from cnn's becky anderson in doha coming up p next.

welcome back. the desperate plight of palestinians in gaza is the primary focus of an international forum now under way in doha, qatar. we will take you there live in just a moment. weeks of israeli bombardments have left parts of gaza in shambles. israel says it is targeting hamas after the palestinian militant movement attacked the country on october the 7th, leaving about 1,200 people dead. amid the bombing of gaza two large explosions at a building

in central gaza early saturday set off a fran sick scramble to pull victims from the wreckage. residents say many people had taken shelter there. and in the southern gaza city of khan yunis the israeli military is telling people there to leave specific areas, but due to poor communications it's simply not clear if palestinians are able to receive those warnings. joining us now is cnn's becky anderson, she's just moderated a panel at the doha forum where much of the discussion was on the israel-hamas war. becky, great to have you on the program. what did the world leaders have to tell you about this continuing war in israel and gaza? >> reporter: well, i sat down with the qatari prime minister who is also the foreign minister here, jordan's foreign minister, and the palestinian prime minister, all on the same panel. we started by talking about what is going on on the ground and getting an assessment of that. remember, the israelis have

categorically ruled out a ceasefire and an end to the military operation, they say, which will continue until hamas is destroyed and all the hostages held in gaza are freed. look, two months on there is still 137 hostages being held and israel is yet to come up with compelling evidence to support the idea of their goal of eliminating hamas and freeing the hostages without continuing catastrophic loss of life. now, qatar of course has been at the heart of these mediation talks for two months now on trying to get these hostages freed and palestinian prisoners released in exchange. remember there was a truce for a week where 100 hostages were freed and three times that palestinian prisoners released, but that was it. that was a truce, a humanitarian

truce, which elicited those efforts, which elicited those releases, but then that stopped. now, qatar, i say, has been at the heart of these negotiations, integral to getting those talks up and running, and the qatari foreign minister and prime minister told me just earlier on that he is deeply disappointed that both parties, both israel and hamas, are not willing to really properly engage as they were in those talks. they do continue, but nothing like the pace. he went on to say this, though -- >> for the way forward we are going to continue, we are committed to have all the hostages being released, but also we are committed to stop this war and to stop the bombardment of the innocent palestinians. it always takes two parties to

be willing to such an engagement. unfortunately, we are not seeing the same willingness that we had seen in the weeks before. >> yeah, and you can hear his frustration and disappointment there. look, part of the conversation that we had today was also about not just what's happening now, but what happens the day after as it were. what happens once this conflict ends? what does a post conflict gaza look like? who governs it? how is it run? and what does a political horizon look like for the palestinians living alongside, you know, if possible, the israelis going forward. what does peace, security, dignity, self-defense look like in the days, weeks, and years

ahead? the u.s. administration is keenly eager to engage particularly with regional partners here in the gulf and around this region of the middle east in how they might be involved in what that gaza and wider palestinian story would look like going forward. the region is very reticent to do that, given that they have been calling -- and these calls are echoed around this region -- for an immediate ceasefire. and do remember the u.n. resolution which called for exactly that last friday, led by the uae which leads the arab group, that resolution was vetoed by the united states which staunchly still stands as a steadfast ally of israel and says it has a right to defend itself. i talked to the palestinian prime minister, though, about what these plans for a post-conflict gaza might look like.

he is working with the u.s. to develop a plan that the palestinian authority would be involved with in governing gaza going forward. remember, the palestinian authority is not involved in the running of gaza at present. that is the political wing of hamas. the palestinian president, prime minister, has said on record that he believes that hamas could have a junior role in that governance going forward. but here is where we stand, israel is bent on destroying hamas. so i started by asking the palestinian prime minister whether the eradication of hamas was even realistic. we went on to talk about whether it was realistic that hamas would be involved in governance going forward. but he told me it was absolutely not going to happen that israel would destroy hamas. he said that that was completely

not supportable so far as the palestinian authority was concerned. but on the issue of hamas being involved in a sort of governance story going forward, if they were to sign up to it, this is what he told me. >> i think it's very important that we should all realize that hamas is an integral part of the palestinian political mosaic and, therefore, for israel to claim that they are going to eradicate, eliminate hamas, i think this is something that is totally -- first of all, it's not going to happen and totally is not acceptable to us. >> reporter: that was the palestinian prime minister speaking to me earlier. so, as i say, two months on with a conflict raging, you've just been reporting there on what is going on on the ground and as antonio gutierrez described

here, the continued catastrophic loss of life. he's been talking for weeks about the head of the united nation nations, the chief of the united nations talk being gaza being in the midst of a catastrophe. he is calling on the united nations security council to do more. there have been draft resolutions on the books that have been pushing for ceasefires, but those haven't even been tabled mostly because of the inevitable vetoing by the united states. so the friday story once again at the united nations extremely disappointed and the u.n. chief says he will continue to press the united nations security council for more, but as things stand at present it does seem there is no end to this crisis. bianca? >> becky anderson in doha, thank you so much for bringing us all the very latest from the key players in the region. i'm bianca nobilo in london.

story this hour for you. the president of the university of pennsylvania has resigned following a firestorm of criticism over her comments about anti-semitism on campus. president liz magill's testimony to congress last tuesday ignited widespread criticism and a donor's threat to pull a $100 million donation. she struggled to answer when asked if advocating for the genocide of jews would violate the university's code of conduct. the chairman of the university's board of trustees, scott bok, also announced that he's stepping down, minutes after announcing magill's resignation. the presidents of harvard and mit who also testified are under withering criticism for their comments but they remain on their jobs. reaction to magill's resignation is coming in from the university of pennsylvania students and faculty. a jewish student who is suing the university over alleged anti-semitism on campus says it is more than incidental. in fact, an endemic part of campus culture.

>> i think this has been a problem for a long time coming and i think what the congressional hearing showed the world is what a lot of us have been saying for a while, is that there is an indifference to anti-semitism and a culture of hostility that has been brewing on campus for some time now and i think if the true cultural change is meant to happen and should happen, then magill is just one figure that has allowed this to happen and there are continuous steps that need to be taken in order to safeguard and protect all students on campus from such hatred and hostility. >> and a professor at the u pen medical school says it is time for magill to go because she had lost the trust of the campus community. >> i do believe that liz magill could not have continued being the president given the number i

would say mistakes that she and people who, i guess, maybe lawyered her up and prepared her made. i think she lost the trust of the community of faculty, donors, students, of course, people have very complex opinions about the israeli-palestinian conflict, but this is about something completely different. an international forum under way in doha, qatar, aims to keep the plight of palestinians front and center as israel's military operations expand across the strip. israel says it is targeting hamas after the palestinian militant movement attacked the country on october 7th leaving about 1,200 people dead. and the bombing of gaza amid the bombing of gaza, two large explosions occurred at a building in central gaza early saturday setting off a frantic scramble to pull victims from the wreckage. residents say many people had taken shelter there. the hamas-run health ministry in

gaza claims more than 17,000 people have been killed there, nearly 49,000 wounded since the war began two months ago. cnn can't independently verify those figures. the hamas run health ministry in gaza says more than a dozen infectious diseases are spreading in the shelters there. they say they found more than 300,000 cases of diseases like upper respiratory tract infections, scabies, measles and meningitis. there have been no cholera cases. they say there are more than a million internally displaced people in gaza who are struggling just to get basic necessities, fundamentals, like water. >> translator: look at how much we suffer to bring water. all this water is salty, it's dirty, it's got diseases in it and we drink it, we wash with it and the children have got diarrhea from it. >> let's bring in leo kanz, the head of mission for palestine

for doctors without borders and joins us live from jerusalem. thank you for taking the time to speak with me today. the world health organization is holding a special session right now to discuss the health conditions in the occupied palestinian territory and the president just said that, quote, nowhere and no one is safe in gaza. would you agree? >> yeah. yeah. totally agree. you know, i just hung up with a phone call with my team, some of them were in khan yunis and were calling us to know where to go. they were desperate and they asked us where is a safe place to go? they don't have information, it's very difficult for them to get information, which place is to be evacuated and they rely on us and the communication with them is very challenging because of the breakdown in communication. so, yes, nowhere is safe in gaza. >> leo, we just mentioned that the hamas-run health ministry in gaza says its identified more than 300,000 cases of around 15

infectious diseases in the shelters across gaza, most of them upper respiratory tract infections and diarrhea but other ones, too, like meningitis and measles. how acute could things get with the spread of these type of diseases? >> you know, it's no wonder. right now you have the perfect recipe for a bigig epidemic outbreak. you have c crowded people, t th are cocompletely crowded, not enough water in terms of quantity a and not enough h watn terms of quality. so you have the triangle, lack of quality, lack of quantity and overcrowded d places with h peo. of course, we will have increase in diarrhea and d respiratory y infectioion, so it's o on the r but there is no other solution, there is no other way that the

epidemic are coming up for sure. >> i'd just like and our viewers to take a listen to this displaced father who is in one of the shelters. >> translator: living here is very difficult, not even suitable for animals. i can't make food available for him. he is here with me and god only knows the diseases, the pain, his health isn't good, he's eating himself out. this isn't milk, this is basically water with a spoon of powder. even less than a spoon. anything so it just smells like milk. just so i can trick him into thinking it is milk so he can drink it, but it isn't healthy. it doesn't give him any nutrition. >> of course he is not the only one with a story like this. far from it. it's difficult to comprehend not just the impact that have kind of living in terms of malnutrition for children, but

psychologically and for the rest of their lives. >> yes. yes. totally. and, you know, it's a heartbreaking story and we have -- all of our staff they are displaced people and are living more or less the same story and try to work for the people and to save life, but it is extremely challenging. and on top of this it's lack of dignity because we have to realize that these people lack everything, they lack food, they lack water, they lack clothing as well, but just a few kilometers away from their place and literally a few kilometers away, 5 to 10 kilometers away there's plenty of supply, plenty of food, plenty of water ready for them. it's completely unacceptable. this political decision to cut off the humanitarian aid in the gaza strip. there is no justification for that and i am outraged, we are

outraged by the situation. there is no reason why we cannot get medicine in, food in, and water inside the street to be delivered to the population. and on top of that it is totally illegal under international law. >> the issue of water supply is becoming increasingly critical and we have been hearing even from those sound bites that we have recently played about the increased spread of diseases through water as well. do you anticipate this becoming a larger issue and what would you ask the international community to do to combat that specifically? >> yeah, you know, the best way to combat this is to let the supply in, let the fuel in and let the water in through the bottles. there is a rafah border which is not the only border that is open from time to time, but then there is also borders on the israeli side and these borders have been designed to let

supplies in. rafah border which has been designed just to let people inside. so for us this call is to open the border. let the aid in. we cannot do without it. right now all is done to impede the humanitarian aid. it prevents to us work and it's extremely frustrating as doctors without borders we could do so much more in the gaza strip, we could save so much more life in the strip and we are completely prevented to do this without any justification. so it's really -- it's really unacceptable. you know, i just talked yesterday with doctors in the hospital, he told me like 60% of the wounded people have infection because we cannot change the dressing. 60% of them and these infections are slowly starting to be dangerous for their life and we lose people, we lose patients

because they die of infections. it shouldn't be like this. this is totally unacceptable. and we have the stressful story from all over the place. in the last hospital where we were, one psych lodge gist was telling me again that he was talking to a five years old child and this child had like suicidal thoughts. at five years old he was expressing to the psychologist the fact that he wanted to die and this is -- this is the s situation that is putting put voluntarily, it is collective brutal punishments that are cast on the whole population indiscriminately and it's a distressful even for us, we are used, you know, to many war zones and difficult situations, but this is more than i have

seen. >> leo cans, thank you for taking the time to speak to us today. >> thank you. >> we will be right back.

wireless that works for you. it's not just possible, it's happening. president biden is shifting into attack mode as he goes up for a possible rematch with donald trump next year. it's happening after prosecutors filed more charges against the president's son, hunter biden. as kevin liptak reports, that's piling up the political pressure on the white house. >> reporter: the white house is remaining mostly tight-lipped about these charges filed against hunter biden, saying that president biden loves his son and supports him, but not weighing in on the substance of the charges, and certainly this is one of the most sensitive issues inside the west wing. there are very few aides who discuss this matter with president biden. and when you talk to them, there are few who says they have firsthand understanding of how the president is processing all of this, but certainly it is weighing heavily on president

biden, his son's legal issues. these are no different and some of the personal issues that were raised in that filing will be problematic for president biden as he gears up for reelection next year. and certainly this will be a political headache for the president as he enters 2024, and you already hear republicans trying to conflate hunter biden's legal issues with the legal issues facing president trump. but, of course, these are very separate cases. president trump was in the white house and he was running to be in the white house again. hunter biden has never been president and won't be president b you this is still a political headache for president biden as he enters this reelection year and certainly the challenge for him will be making this a contest between him and president trump and trying to frame the stakes of this election. and you are starting to hear him sharpen his attacks on his predecessor and most likely rival, and, in fact, when he was in las vegas on friday talking

to passenger rail investments, he went after president trump by name. listen. >> trump just talks the walk. we walk the walk. look -- he likes to say america is a failing nation. frankly, he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. >> reporter: it's certainly likely that you will hear that kind of argument in television ads, digital ads. of course, those will cost a lot of money and that is why president biden is out here in los angeles this weekend raising campaign cash at a series of fundraisers and, in fact, behind closed doors at those fundraisers he is even sharper in his attacks on president trump. on friday night telling donors, literally i believe the future of american democracy is at stake. the greatest threat trump poses is to our democracy because if we lost that, we lose everything. so certainly you see president biden there fine-tuning his

attacks on president trump as he gears up for this election season. now, i was talking with jeffrey katzenberg, the movie mogul but also a co-chair of the biden campaign. he told me this 36-hour stretch of fundraising out here in california will be the most successful campaign fundraising stretch that president biden has engaged in since he announced his reelection effort in the spring. kevin liptak, cnn, los angeles. in u.s. presidential politics the first real test for republican candidates is next month when iowa holds its caucuses, but between now and then are the holidays, which means that gop hopefuls have very little time left and with trump the clear front runner, candidates are telling iowa voters why they would be the better choice. take a listen. >> what i know is you don't defeat democrat chaos with republican chaos, and that's what donald trump gives us.

rightly or wrongly. i had a great working relationship with him, but rightly or wrongly, chaos follows him. you know i'm right. chaos follows him. and we can't have a country in disarray and a world on fire and survive this chaos. >> it's important to point out that normally in an iowa caucus you've got five or six candidates that are running as conservatives and conservative voters are having to look through. that's not the case this year. i think, you know, you have donald trump who has obviously moved left, is not even putting in the work to earn people's votes. it's a u.s. tradition for more than a venturi now. still ahead, the annual army-navy football game. we will recap the action in one of the america's great rivalries.

we turn to sport now and perhaps the most unique and special matchup in all of america, the army-navy football game, a rivalry that dates back more than a century. coy wire joins us live from outside boston, massachusetts. coy, for our viewers around the world who might not know, obviously i'm not one of them,

can you explain why this game is different from any other in the caliendar to a layperson? >> reporter: yeah, what's up, bianca. welcome to gillette stadium, home of the six-time super bowl champion new england patriots. this 124th edition of the army-navy game was historic. held here in new england for the first time ever, the birthplace of both the u.s. army and navy and dating back to 1890, bianca, america's game is loaded with tradition and pageantry, making it one of the greatest rivalries in all of sports. now, as for the game, army came in ranked as the third best defense in the nation at forcing turnovers and they got two more in the biggest game of the year, max didomenico had a tremendous interception but kalib fortner scooped up a football and took it all the way to the house for the score for army. but in this defensive slugfest it came down to a goal line stand. navy had one last shot to punch

it in but army finishes strong, final score 17-11. afterwards army starting the epic celebrations. this is like their super bowl. army has won six out of the last eight now. we caught up with head coach jeff monken and his team after the game. >> man, both sides battled right to the end. welcome to the army-navy game. down at the 1 yard line at the end of the game. >> our culture, our never give up attitude. we've talked about how we started off and how that's completely different than how we finished. this is a culminating event for the all the work we've put in and i'm proud this have team. >> reporter: they say that this game is the only game where all the players playing are willing to sacrifice their life for everyone watching. next year's edition will move to the nation's capital and be played at washington, d.c. >> coy, what other news are you following at the moment? what more sporting assignment can we expect?

>> reporter: well, we had two champions crowned, it was a huge day for america in sports, we will start with footy, big congrats to columbus, your new mls champions, the crew holding off the defending champion lafc 2-1. it was soggy, it was chilly in central ohio. they won their second title in four years. it's their third in franchise history. also, big congrats to those los angeles lakers, winners of the nba's first ever in-season tournament. a big night for anthony davis, scoring a season-high 41 points to go along with 20 rebounds, powering l.a. to a 123-109 victory over the passers in laig. speaking of rain, shohei ohtani is making it rain cash, the angels star headed to the l.a. dodgers for a reported ten year $700 million, i can't even say t bianca, it's that much. that's worth more than six

entire nhlfranchises, $700 million comes out to making $191,000 every day, every year for the next ten years. what would you do with that? >> coy wire, thank you so much. i will ponder that the rest of the day. always good to see you. thank you. and that wraps our hour of "cnn newsroom." i'm bianca nobilo in london. for viewers in north america, you've got "cnn this morning" next, for the rest of the world it will be "marketplace asia."
