1:04 am
not just to exploit weaknesses in ukraine's air defense system, but its waning international support, highlighting ukraine's need for european and u.s. monies held up by internal politicking. in a week when ukraine appeared to have turned its narrative to one of success, destroying a valuable russian tank transporter ship in crimea, reality appears to be a second winter under sustained systemic russia bombardment. nothing changes, russia's goal is the same, he says. to destroy ukraine as a state and destroy all rebellious ukrainians as a nation. resilience now ukrainians' best friend. nic robertson, cnn, london. in the wake of the russian bombardment, president biden again calling on congress to
1:05 am
pass additional aid to ukraine. lawmakers left washington for the holiday break without agreeing on any new funding. in a statement on friday he pointed to the nationwide attacks saying that it is a stark reminder to the world that after nearly two years of this devastating war, putin's objective remains unchanged, he seeks to obliterate ukraine and sub you gate his people. he must be stopped. barbie nadeau is keeping an eye on the developments and is join us from rome. let's start with the biden administration again pleading for more funding. >> reporter: that's right. i mean, this is especially important at this particular moment. this has become sort of a forgotten war. and it is not just ukraine obviously. fallout of this is all nato allies, all across europe, people are concerned if this funding stops, especially funding even from the european union, there is a hiccup there as well, if ukraine can't defend itself, that will have a wider implication and people are very
1:06 am
concerned about that here in europe. >> and meanwhile there might be more fall joutout with polish accusations that russian missile may have crossed into polish air space. >> reporter: there is a lot of confusion around whose missile that was. initially poland said it was an unidentified object that flew through their air space. now they are saying it is a missile. there is some concern that it was an ukrainian missile used for air defense. russia saying they won't comment because they don't have enough information about it. but it just really does underscore the danger here especially for those border countries. poland very, very nervous from the beginning of this war now almost entering its third year about just what could happen if the fighting comes across the border. when there is a breach of air space, that is a concern not just for poland, but all of europe. >> barbie nadeau, thanks so
1:07 am
much. former president trump is fighting to keep his name on another state ballot. at anytime in the hours ahead the oregon supreme court could weigh in on a 14th amendment case filed earlier this month by a liberal advocacy group. they want trump's name removed because of his alleged role in the january 6 insurrection. but trump's lawyers find themselves agreeing with the democrat, oregon's saecretary o state that it should be tossed on procedure laws. and states from one coast to the other are already considering the issue. legal affairs correspondent paula reid takes a closer look. >> reporter: the supreme court facing increasing pressure to weigh in on whether states can remove former president trump from the 2024 ballot. after maine became the second state to kick him off based on the 1th aecmendment's ban on insurrectionists holding public
1:08 am
office. >> never a secretary of state have deprived a presidential today on ballot access, but no presidential candidate has ever engaged in insurrection and been disqualified a under section three of the 14th amendment. >> reporter: in maine, ballot eligibility questions first go to the secretary of state, not the courts. trump has calllled for t the democrcrat sheheena bell lows t recuse herself because of previous comments about january 6 where she tweeted the jan 6 insurrection was an unlawful attempt to overthrow the results of a free and fair election. she did not remove herself from the matter and now the issue heads to the courts as trump and the state's republican party vow to appeal. >> our voting rights enshrined in the constitution are sacred to us. and to have one particular person remove really the top
1:09 am
candidate from the ballot because she dislikes that person just smells of politics. >> reporter: the question of trump's ballot eligibility has been debated in multiple states with only maine and colorado taking him off the primary ballot. even california on thursday opted to include him. in a statement, the trump campaign accused colorado and maine of election interference, attempted theft of an election and disenfranchisement of the american voter. even some of trump's rivals have criticized states taking him out of the running instead of leaving it to voters. >> makes him a martyr. you know, he's very good at playing poor me, poor me. >> can you have a republican secretary of state disqualify biden from the ballot? because he's let in 8 million people illegally. >> reporter: the colorado gop has already appealed the state's ruling to the united states supreme court asking the
1:10 am
justices to take up three key questions, does section three of the 14th amendment apply to a president? and is section 3 of the 14th amendment to be enforced by states? and also asking whether the gop has a first amendment right to choose its candidates. trump is also expected to appeal. >> they are trying to take the election away from the voters. >> reporter: and in states like minnesota and michigan where they opted to keep trump on the ballot for the primary, the judges left the door open to relitigate the issue for the general election. so if the supreme court does not step in here, this is a question that could hang over the 2024 election through november. paula reid, cnn, washington. >> and as she mentioned, california secretary of state pushed back against some calls from her own democratic party and decided to keep trump on the ballot. here is what she told cnn. >> we have looked and looked and we have observed and watched
1:11 am
every case that has come out. i have 18 attorneys that are basically focused on this in my office as well as our attorney general has been involved with this particular issue. and so we're still looking. we haven't said that we'll keep him quote/unquote on the ballot. he is listed on the ballot because we don't have the authority yet to take him off the ballot. i'd like to see them answer whether this constitutional provision applies to all states, that they come out with a decision that affects all 50 states because otherwise we could have a tremendous amount of chaos with regards to being on certain ballots and not on other ballots and having people challenge counts because certain states weren't included. i think they have to decide if this is a federal issue, a nanational issssue that hahas t addressed. they need to decide whether or not he has engaged in insurrection. this is extremely important. why would you want someone to be
1:12 am
president of the united states who spent their time trying to destroy the united states? i mean, nono other country woul probably tolerate that unless they were engaged in a coup or some kind of revolution. >> california governor newsom also thinks that trump should stay on the ballot telling democrats to defeat him at the polls. maine secretary of state says her office has received threats since her decision to remove trump from the primary ballot. sheena bellows says she's worried about her loved ones and co-workers calling threats unacceptable. >> i was prepared for the possibility of threats and i really appreciate law enforcement and the people around me who have been incredibly supportive of my safety and security. my safety and security is important. so is the safety and security of everyone who works with me. and we have received threatening communications. those are unacceptable. as we head into the holiday weekend, a powerful storm
1:13 am
offshore continues to pound the u.s. west coast. california still getting battered with high waves and flooding. alisha raffa has details. >> coastal flooding continues to be a problem in california as we go through the holiday weekend, waves have been crashing the last day or so with some wave heights in the san francisco bay area up to 28 feet and they could be even higher on statue. the weather service calling this event exceptional. rip currents are extreme and dangerous. we have this potent storm that is heading toward the west coast and packing a punch with intense winds over the ocean. and that is spinning up the waves. and you can see that here. look at these winds that are really just kicking over the ocean. and that is kicking some of the ocean heights. sunday, the waves and winds start to die down a little bit.
1:14 am
but again, what is happening is we've gotten strong winds that is moving around the water creating some of those waves, plus an ocean current doing that as well. so sometimes you get the waves to kind of crash and collide and it could create a rogue wave, and that winds up being two times or more bigger than all the other waves around it and it can be very unpredictable to kind of know when the waves will peak like that. they can be very dangerous. wave heights in general, around 20 feet, around southern california could peak around 40 feet. but again, easing as we go into sunday once the storm passes. and starts to ease up. here a look at the high surf warnings from santa barbara to san diego for 25 feet wave heights, could be up to 40 feet around the san francisco bay area. that could cause some damage to piers and jetties when you get the waves just that high. that could also cause some inland flooding. you have some coastal alerts
1:15 am
because you not only have the really high wave, you also have high tide happening saturday morning. highest of the month. so that could cause that water to run inland and cause low lying areas to flood along with the rip currents. the storm didn't really make it too far east. after it dumps rain in california, it doesn't really make it too far past the rockies. you might have some snow through new year's week through the great lakes, but for the most part high pressure is over the u.s. keeping us dry and quiet going into the holidays. when you look at new year's eve, you are looking at chilly temperatures. you are at freezing in minneapolis, 40s from new york too to boston, but not much rain and snow. at times square, a bit of a breeze and windchills will be in the 30s. so bundle up. still to come, police in europe are stepping up security ahead of new year's eve. how the israel-hamas war is factoring into those
1:16 am
preparations.sperately needed humanitarian aid slowly trickling into gaza. but sometimes it gets held up for days. that and more coming up next..

there are growing concerns that palestinian civilians have nowhere to go and now israel's military says it is extending operations against hamas in the kahn yunis area. and in northern gaza the idf says it destroyed a hamas tunnel system that reportedly included one of the hideout apartments of yahya sinwar, the leader in gaza. since the war began, more than 300 people have been killed while seeking refuge in u.n. shelters, that underscores the reality that nowhere in gaza is safe. nada bashir reports. rbd suits repo . >> reporter: the wounded are rushed to hospitals but there is no respite from the widening
1:21 am
offensive. by day break smoke rises, many who fled here now watch as their loved ones are buried. grief here is never ending. israel says it is targeting hamas who they say are embedding themselves amongst civilians. but the innocent are shown no mercy in this war. gripped with fear as israeli forces completely strike residential buildings and even around hospitals. >> the house we stayed in, we thought it was good and we found shelter finally. the house jiggled and the house went crazy and the windows broke. >> reporter: in rafah, a vital gateway to add agencies, children sift through the rubble of the now destroyed shelters. uncertain of what the world will bring or if they will haven
1:22 am
would. >> where am i supposed to go? children were killed here. i'm terrified. and scared and the thought of me being killed or my other brother being killed, just crossing my mind repeatedly. >> reporter: in northern gaza, it is not just the assistants bombing striking fear into the hearts of civilians but also the fear of starvation. some 2.2 million people this gaza are now set to be facing an acute hunger crisis prompting this sea desperation. crowds grabbing what little food aid has made it in. unsure of their next opportunity. but there is one thing certain in gaza, there is nowhere left to go. >> translator: children, elderly people, some were fasting. they were sitting iand a rocket fell on them. they were displaced from gaza to kahn yunis and then moved to
1:23 am
rafah thinking that it was safer there. but there is no safety. >> reporter: with no safe place to turn, people continue to 12r stream into rafah despite the bombardments gripping the border city. the u.n. says at least 100,000 displaced people have arrived in the already overwhelmed city. the tents their only hope of shelter from the bitter cold of winter. as for the airstrikes, there is no hope of shelter wherever they turn. nada bashir, cnn, london. the u.n. says the flow of humanitarian aid has resumed at the came rkere msha local cross. the u.n. says 81 trucks carrying food and medicine entered on friday from two crossings.
1:24 am
the humanitarian agency says that it is a woefully inadequate amount concerning the average number of deliveries per day was 455 prior to the war. for the second time this month the biden administration is by passing congress to sell military equipment to israel. the package is worth nearly $150 million and includes items like fuses for artillery shells, the state department approved the transfer on an emergency basis citing the urgency of israel's defensive needs. congress typically has 20 days to review sales to foreign militaries. across europe, police are ramping up security to keep people safe during new years eve celebrations especially in light of heightened tensions over the israel-hamas war. michael holmes reports. >> reporter: fireworks in paris. it is always a big party in the city of light on new year's eve. and this year with up to a million people expected on the
1:25 am
champs-elysees, police are stepping up security to try to make it a safe one. the french government says more than 95,000 police and military personnel will be deployed on new year's eve. the tight security in part because of heightened tensions over the israel-hamas war. french officials say people will be body searched before entering certain festivities and drones will be used to monitor the crowds. >> translator: i called for an extremely strong mobilization of the police and armory services against the backdrop of a very high terrorist threat because of what is happening in israel and gaza. >> reporter: berlin too is beefing up security to try to avoid another volatile new year's eve like last year when rioters attacked police and emergency workers with fireworks and other objects, dozens of police were hurt and vehicles
1:26 am
set ablaze. german officials say there is generally increase of violence on new year's eve. and there are fears that pro palestinian demonstrators who have scuffled with police in recent months could cause problems on the holiday. >> translator: we've been preparing for this operation for a long time and are also working closely with the fire service. we'll be taking a shoulder to shoulder approach here. we'll also accompany some of the rescue operations when they are called to hot spots. >> reporter: german emergency personnel released a video via social media asking the public to respect the police and firefighters working to protect them on new year's eve. a plea for a peaceful new year's eve where the conflicts of the world don't spill out on to europe's streets. michael holmes, cnn. still ahead, an end of the year surge at the u.s. border

welcome back to all of you watching us in the united states, canada and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is "cnn newsroom." now to the controversy about whether former president trump is qualified to run for president in the new year. two u.s. states have now disqualified him from appearing on the republican primary ballots, first colorado and now maine. both rulings are on hold caught up in courtshall cohen has the .
1:31 am
>> reporter: sources tell cnn that former president trump's team is planning to appeal those major 14th amendment cases in colorado and maine on tuesday. getting ready to take their challenge in colorado to the united states supreme court and in maine to a trial level state court. they are pushing back hard on the idea that he is disqualified from office because of the 14th amendment which says that anyone who swears an oath to uphold the constitution and then engages in an insurrection can't return to government. that is exactly the rationale that the top election official in maine and the colorado supreme court used to disqualify him from office and remove him from the primary ballot. but look, these decisions have come with fallout, political fallout and a lot of criticism
1:32 am
including some from both sides of the aisle and an avalanche of threats not only in colorado but also we're learning in in maine. take a listen. >> i certainly worry about the safety of people that i love, people around me, and people who are charged with protecting me and working alongside me. that being said, we are a nation of laws and that is what is really important. so i've been laser focused on that obligation to uphold the constitution. >> reporter: this is bigger than just those two states. this has truly become a national situation. trump has already beaten back lawsuits in michigan and minnesota, just a few days ago the top election official in california, a democrat, decided that trump will remain on the ballot there. and another major case is pending in oregon where the
1:33 am
oregon supreme court could possibly rule as soon as this weekend on donald trump's eligibility for office. so there are a lot of key questions in the air. a lot of appeals that will certainly be pursued. and a lot of questions that need to be answered as the 2024 primary cycle rapidly approaches. matte marshall cohen, cnn, washington. u.s. secretary of homeland security is set to visit the southern border in early january. alejandro mayorkas is scheduled to visit eagle pass, texas. that comes on the heels of his visit alongside secretary of state antony blinken to mexico city earlier this week to discuss the influx with mexico's president and his cabinet. december saw more than 225,000 migrant encounters at the border, largest number in more than two decades. the number of unaccompanied migrant children has spiked
1:34 am
leaving thousand in the custody of the federal government. there are currently 11,700 migrant children in u.s. custody. the number of kids in custody has increased 6.5% since december 1. text goveas governor abbott his state has bussed more than 92,000 might have grants to other states since april of last year. operation lone star has bussed tens of thousands to so-called sanctuary cities across the country last week the republican governor sign ed a controversia state law that gives law enforcement to arrest migrants. the justice department threatened to sue texas over the new law. ukraine tries to get back to its feet after a wave of deadly russian airstrikes. still ahead, what is ahead for the country after the attacks

1:36 am
1:37 am
1:38 am
the latest developments in ukraine where three regions are honoring the victims of the devastating airstrikes. they are holding a day of mourning after russia hammered targets across ukraine. at least 31 people were killed and more than 150 people were wounded. moscow says it saw incoming ukrainian drones overnight, they reportedly shot down more than 30 of them in four regions including moscow. ukrainians responded to the russian bombardment by erecting a christmas tree in a courtyard which was battered by the attack. for more, we're joined by director of the yoeurasia democracy initiative. and thank you for being with us. you are there in kyiv. what was it like in the capital during these attacks? >> well, this wasoff ns overnig
1:39 am
be honest with you, i'm now wearing ear plugs in my ears. so i slept through the whole thing. and it tells you that despite the massive damage to the infrastructure around the country, 33 people died as a result of this air attack, people have grown used to this. and this sort of terror from the sky. we are now much more hardened than even before. paradoxically i will add to this this massive air attack may have come at a very opportune moment for ukraine. but there is significant political in-fighting in ukraine that has been intensifying as a result of the unrealistic expectations for other counteroffensive both on the part of the western allies and here internally. so this was a very timely and welcome reminder to the ukrainians of who the real enemy is. the real enemy is vladimir putin who has not given up his initial goal of either controlling ukraine politically,
1:40 am
economically, or if he cannot achieve that, destroying it outright making it a failed state. so in a way as, you know, as counterintuitive as it may sound, i think that this has allowed us to once again concentrate on what is important especially now that the country is discussing new law on mobilization which provides for 500,000 of ukrainian men to be mobilized for what is promising to be a long multiyear war with russia. >> what would the difference between this mobilization and what has gone on before exactly, explain to us the mechanism there? >> well, what has gone on before initially when russia invaded, hundreds of thousands of ukrainian men signed up voluntarily and went into this war and have been in this war ever since. so we're talking about exhausted troops who really need a break, as simple as that. while the rest of the country
1:41 am
has sort of kind of relaxed, you know, seeing that things are happening and ukraine was able to stage quite an effective counteroffensive operations while it liberated kherson, if you remember, part of the kharkiv region, et cetera. and so now we're being told that this is looking much more sinister than we thought. putin has been able to mobilize significant resources. economically he was able to move his economy to a more footing. so now we're having to play catchup to the russians. we have to relieve the exhausted troops, we have to train new soldiers, this will take time. this is being done quite actually late in the game. so this is a very, very nervous moment for all of us especially now that we're seeing our partners in brussels are being slow with their delivery of
1:42 am
financial aid and congress, u.s. congress still not decided what to do with ukraine. this is the worst moment to be sort of hesitant. just now we saw with this a air offensive yesterday, a rocket landed on polish territory. so this should lead to the article 5 by nato, but we're talking about a nuclear power such as russia. so the best way to send putin message that nato is strong and resilient is to allow ukraine to continue its resistance and give it all the weapons that it needs. >> you mentioned this, soyou di behind this which was reportedly the largest air attack since the war began, the timing for russia, do you think putin is taking advantage of the west's disengagement with ukraine to
1:43 am
press home his advantage now? >> he is sending contradictory signals and constantly probing, as a kgb man, constantly probing and provoking. he is sending a message to the "new york times," it was reported that since september he has been sending these sort of feelers, these signals that he is ready to settle for some kind of a peace agreement. on the other hand, he is announcing with this air attack that his goals have remained the same. this also may be part of his, you know, vengeance. he wants to send a signal of strength to his own people because mind you two days ago ukraine destroyed a major russian ship in the crimea port which led to the deaths of 74 russian sailors. keep that in mind as well. at the same time, this may be a start of a campaign of sort of what you saw last year that seeks to knock out our
1:44 am
infrastructure, our power grid, et cetera. so his signals are contradictory, but don't be fooled. as long as putin is alive, his goal to destroy ukraine will not be modified. that is his -- he has said he won't do anything else. he has in fact is banking on continuation of this war and is betting on it as a sure way to remain in power. i don't think that we'll see putin as a president of peace until the rest of his life. >> you can bet on that i imagine. peter, we'll have to leave it there, but always a pleasure talking to you. >> thank you. and we'll be right back. plplease do ststay with usus.
