>> hello, and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states, around the world and streaming on cnn, on rosemary church. biden vows to retaliate after a deadly strike against american troops in jordan. one of china's largest real estate developers is being forced to big date while giant evergrande could mean the economy. the kansas city chiefs and 49ers head to las vegas with everything on the line. >> good to have you with us. u.s. president joe biden is vowing to respond after three american soldiers were killed
11:02 pm
and more than 30 injured in a drone attack in jordan. the attack on the outpost known as tower 22 marked the first time u.s. troops have been killed by enemy fire in the middle east since the start of the war between israel and hamas. that small military base seen in this satellite image is located near the border with syria. mr. biden is blalaming iran bacd militant groups for the attack, while in iran, state media report iran's permanent mission to the u.n. denies the country had any involvement. the u.s. president is vowing to hold those responsible to account. >> we had a tough day last night in the middle east. we lost three brave soldiers in an attack on one of our bases.
11:03 pm
[indistinct] >> we shall respond. >> cnn's paula hancock joins us from abu dhabi with more. what is the reaction from iran? >> well rosemary the denial from iran was fairly swift saying they had no involvement in this attack. it did come from the permanent mission in the u.n. reported by state media but what we heard from the u.s. side is they believe this was an attack that was carried out by iranian backed groups, by the iranian proxies in the region. they believe the drone originated from syria and it's not clear at this point why there were no air defense systems that actually kicked into place to try to intercept this drone. now, we have heard from the islamic resistance in iraq which is an umbrella group for many of
11:04 pm
these iranian backed and funded and equipped groups in iraq. they have said that they were carrying out a number of attacks on the jordanian and syrian border including on a camp in close proximity to tower 22 where this u.s. outpost is. now, the u.s. personnel we understand from central command were there in order to do an assist mission with jordan. they say that they're there in the region including in iraq and syria to help fight against isis there. were some 350b servicemembers at this particular outpost but of course the question is, what is the reaction from the u.s. side. they have made it clear that they believe that it was an iranian backed group whether or not iran had operational control over this attack is not really what the u.s. is focusing on at this point they have come under
11:05 pm
attack on an almost daily basis in iraq and in syria almost 160 rocket and drone and missile attacks since october 17 last year. there have been a number of injuries but as you say this is the first time that there has been a u.s. soldier personnel loss of life since the war in gaza began, rosemary. >> paula there were already ongoing concerns, the israel-hamas war could widen into a regional conflict. could this event be that trig tore expand the conflict? >> it's a question that everybody is asking at this point, rosemary. the u.s. was already directly involved in targeting some of these groups. they had carried out reretaliatory attacks in iranian backed groups in both iraq and syria because of the constant attack that they were coming under from these groups and we
11:06 pm
have seen also, that the u.s. has directly engaged in yemen. they have been trying to take out houthi rebel bases and some missile launch sites from the houthis who are launching missiles into the red sea against commercial shipping so the u.s. has already been involved directly in attacks against certain elements but it's always been against iranian backed elements, the iranian proxies. there has not been a direct impact between the u.s. and iran and up until this point iran was apparently reticent to become involved that they had enough proxies that terán itself did not to be involved and have denied involvement in this particular attack. the question is know there has been loss of life of u.s. military personnel. the u.s. president will come under increasing pressure and we
11:07 pm
have seen back in washington, to do more, to carry out mortal -- retaliation but he says there will be a response. >> thanks to paula hancocks from abu dhabi. malcolm from the australian policy institute. appreciate you joining us. >> my pleasure. >> reacting to that deadly attack on troops in jordan president biden says the u.s. will respond but how does he do that without escalating this war even more? what possible military options are available to him right now? >> well, i think that's the key question. he has to respond and he has to respond in a much more robust
11:08 pm
way than what the u.s. has been doing in the past few months really to respond to these attacks by these iranians proxies so he can't essentially do more of the same what people are calling pin prick strikes. at the same time, he can't respond in a way or try to avoid responding in a way that would then justify iran in retaliatory fervor and lead to a major war so he's got to back a fine line in this regard. i think there are probably various options he can do not only in terms of attacking the iranian sponsored militia groups in iraq and syria that carried out the attack but also attacking the iranian revolutionary guard troops that may have supported and that could including similar to operation praying man advertise
11:09 pm
in 1987 in the% gulf while the iranian revolutionary guard corps has its own navy so one option the americans covered would be to strike at the iranian revolutionary guard naval capabilities to prevent them from shipping in the% gulf and particularly from stop them from laying mines in the% gulf. that would be the next step along the spectrum to prevent iran to go further in future attacks. >> now this, attack on u.s. troops in and of itself escalates the middle east situation. so how might iran react to any u.s. retaliatory action given iran is denying any role? >> yes, i think it's obvious that any response is going to see an iranian response, so the
11:10 pm
u.s. has to react in a way that reduces iran's response and it gets complicated in responses and you can go on forever, but i think that the iranians could certainly retaliate. one of the concerns would be they could lay mines in the key maritime checkpoints and the key maritime straits. they could do cyber attacks not only in the middle east but also globally. they have a strong cyber warfare capability and do further attacks with their own missile capabilities against u.s. forces and as i said, taking down the iranian revolutionary guard corps navy would be an important step for the u.s. because they were helped by the irgc is optimized for swarming attacks on vessels where hundreds of small craft laden with explosives streak out and attack
11:11 pm
a vessel at sea. so i think the iranians have a number of options and we have to counter those options as well as sending a message to tehran not to continue attacks. >> this all stems from military campaigns in gaza and while that war continues the u.s. will be vulnerable to attacks like this in the region, so would what would the u.s. likely be saying to israel about their war with hamas? >> i think it's important to diminnish between iranian broader attacks in the region that not only include the iranian militias in iraq and syria, but also houthi forces in the red sea, from israel's actions against hamas in gaza. now, there is connection there and i think the iranians continue to push this connection. but in fact, when you look at what the houthis are doing in the red sea the iranians doing
11:12 pm
in iran and syria there's no definite response there by iran to israeli actions against hamas and even if the u.s. could influence israel to wind back its operation and cease all military operations against hamas that doesn't guarantee that hamas wouldn't continue to strike at israel or that iran wouldn't continue to strike at u.s. forces in the region. so, these sort of two separate conflicts going on colocated with a potential to merge into one larger war. >> malcolm davis thanks for joining us and sharing your military analysis and we appreciate it. >> thank you rosemary. >> the main u.n. agency in gaza is urging con trust to reconsider cutting off funding over alling gaigsz staff members were involved in the occupant 7 octobeatcks on on israel.
11:13 pm
as the country shared information with u.s. officials on the intelligence they had on the u.n. staffers allegedly involved in the attacks the officials said they reached out to the agency several days before briefing the u.s. hundreds of thousands of displaced palestinians are dependent on aid from that u.n. organization and same say a pause in funding would be disastrous. >> the situation we live in now has support from all over the world and the whole world is responsible. it is the world that cuts the aid from women and children. we are talking about cutting medicine them would also cut us off from the air if they can. what is our fault as the
11:14 pm
palestinian people? our land has been occupied and our houses have been destroyed and we have been through many wars and this is the worst. we don't have any hope in life. >> meantime, palestinians are mourning the deaths of family members killed in overnight israeli strikes. the hamas run health ministry in gaza says at least 165 people were killed in just the past 24 hours, bringing the overall death toll to more than 26,000 since the war started. it comes as heavy fighting continues in khan younis against members of hamas operating around hospitals. but the palestine red crescent society says the honest have been under sohn jie-ae the past
11:15 pm
week. protestors blocked trucks in gaza demanding the hostages be relieved before any more aid reaches. >> in southern israel protestors snake through fields dodging police checkpoints. eventually forced to walk. >> so we are getting close to the border now. there are a lot of police and a lot of soldiers here. it seems that people can just pass through. >> they come a hundred or so to israel's only functioning border crossing to gaza to blockade trucks. >> did the army and police stop you? >> now they tried, but we came, a lot of people and they are with us. >> a pause as he finds the right words that the soldiers sympathize with them. >> all of us, we have the same
11:16 pm
kids inside gaza. >> sefi organizations the protests. in their last four days they've effectively shut the border, their demand no aid until all hostages are released. >> we are saying the simple thing, very, very simple. we are saying that we will give you everything. give us our people. >> more than 130 hostages still held in gaza. attitudes among some israelis are hardening. >> hamas is killing us and we are at war n. a war you don't give help to enemies. >> since the war began, many israelis so aid to gaza prewar about 500 trucks a day as the same as backing hamas but this is the first time protestors are actually stopping the convoys, already operating way below the
11:17 pm
minimum the u.n. says is needed. >> does it worry you that the trucks that don't come through here today, they'll be starving children tonight because of it? >> the fastest way in my opinion, i'm not a military expert the fastest way to end this suffering is to have the hostages released. >> inside gaza desperation grows and aid trucks this weekend looted in conditions emergency experience humanitarian officials describe as the worst they've seen. doctors without borders chief of mission just returned says more people may die if aid is held back. >> we have different supplies that need to come in and is not coming in. so, as i said people will die, people will suffer more and
11:18 pm
international law will be disregarded even more. >> by late afternoon police and soldiers at the border running when protestors saw truck moving. turned out they were being sent back to egypt. the idf says it's tightening security in the area. nic robertson cnn on the israel-gaza boarder. the u.k. says a british warship in the red sea took down a drone launched by iranian backed houthi rebels on saturday. so far no injuries have been reported. the british defense secretary is calling the growing attacks along the key shipping routes quote intolerable and illegal. the u.k. and the u.s. have been jointly carrying out strikes against houthi targets in yemen but the rebel group says it won't stop the attacks until the war between israel and hamas ends. some russians are having to line up at grocery stores where they are fifinding rise priceces on

the head of nato is visiting the u.s. and expected to meet with senior officials in washington in the coming hours. in an interview staltenberg talked about tying ukraine aid to tighter u.s. border controls stressing that ukraine's needs can't be ignored. >> what matters is that ukraine gets a continued support, because we need to realize that this is closely watched in beijing so it's not only making europe more vulnerable but all of us in the united states more vulnerable if putin gets what he wants in ukraine and this is actually a good deal, because we by using a fraction of u.s. defense budge eth, we have been able to destroy and degrade the russian army.
11:24 pm
>> he argued the economy benefits by supporting ukraine because it leads to more weapons production in the u.s. and creates jobs. as the war grinds on in ukraine president put sin trying to project an image of economic stability in russia, but it's proving difficult. the price of one staple soared. clare sebastian reports. >> when you're husband spoils you with expensive presents, reads the caption, social media brimming with egg memes making light of a new feature of russia's upside down war economy sudden and unexpected price rises. drive an hour outside moscow

so subtle hint eggs were exempts from import duties 6 months and shipments started arriving and belarus ramping up supplies its president unable to resist a dig. >> our needs are pork chicken milk vegetable oils and chicken eggs. send some to us, don't be greedy. >> in putins war economy is the crisis is not decline but g put about higher demand because it's higher wages, partly true economists say but putin doesn't say why wages are up. >> this labor slorj is a huge issue. what does that come from? >> i think to me the key issue is there are a lot of deaths with war and people have to be
11:27 pm
replaced, the russian people trying to keep quiet t the numb of people died. >> then there's the wartime spending. >> the budget for 24 sees record levels of government expenditure so when you put that alongside a supply side tightness with a massive increase in demand, driven by the state, you've got a recipe for inflation. >> president putin now poised for the next price spike a threat to his image of stability before the march elections but likely not his shelf life. >> still to come, one of china's largest real estate developers is being forced to liquidate. we are live in hong kong with more on the court order.

"now before the hearing evergrande shares were tradings down as much as 20 percent and china was halted in evergrande and listed subsit list.

in 2021 it triggered a market panic when it defaulted on offshore debt. evergrande is the most indebted property develop weather $328 billion of liabilities and its founder was suspected of crimes and analysts have been weighing in on the liquidation rublg and say it's good news long-term for the chinese economy but it's going painful process also according to andrew collier of orient capital research. we also heard from gary a senior economist there.
11:34 pm
he said it's not an end but the beginning of a long process of liquidation which will make evergrande's process harder. making reference to perhaps country garden another heavily indebted developer this process for evergrande could be large and complicated. there had been questions about jurisdiction about whether authorities inside china would up hold a ruling from a court in hong kong, but ahead of the decision, we learn that china's supreme court and department of justice here in hong kong signed an agreement to jointly enforce this judgment rosemary. >> all right, thanks to christie lou stout. next on "cnn newsroom" swifties

11:53 pm
california. so you see the series of storms that does. this you'll find rain arriving from washington and oregon on tuesday but the front starts to drip south by wednesday bringing heavy rain from northern california to the state line and down into southern california, los angeles goeting some of that rain by thursday so we have got multiple days of flooding risk in california. you have that slight risk on wednesday level 2 out of 4 from sacramento to san francisco and that threat spreads to southern california by thursday, that marginal level 1 risk including los angeles and san diego into the week so you can see where the rain totals slide south but we are looking at two or three inches of that coming in just one day so something we have to watch and then you see two-inch
11:54 pm
totals could spread far south as los angeles and san diego and looking at a foot of snow possible in the sierra nevada. this comes with gusty winds as the storm hits the west coast, we could find wind gusts up to 40 miles per hour maybe 50 mile-an-hour gusts in northern california into wednesday. so when we talk about impact about heavy rain and gusty winds. numerous showers landslides possible down stories and power lines probably into the week. >> method in below test, people threw soup at the mona lisa. michael holmes explains.
