this is cnn brick news. >> welcome to our viewers and the united states and around the world area here in the nation's capitol, we are following some breaking news this afternoon. buckingham palace says king charles iii has been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. max, what are you learning?

>> reporter: i am getting a few more details in terms of, you know, that it's not prostate cancer. is it related in any way, sort of questioning that. the second, receiving appropriate treatment, we are told that insurance pacific details at this stage but he is receiving expert care and he will return to public duties when he can. he has returned to london. he has been advised by doctors not to appear in public. he is receiving outpatient care. we know that prince harry has been speaking to his father and is traveling to the united kingdom and that prince william is in regular contact with the king. the crucial thing they're emphasizing is that the king will continue with his top- level constitutional duties, signing laws, appointing ministers, making sure things

can continue, so there is no threat to that. in terms of the public facing nature of the monarchy, it will no longer be represented by the king for now. it will be expected that the queen continue representing the monarchy and we also know that prince william is back to work. not expecting him to be back at work as quickly. he was looking at his wife but he will now be expected to step up and continue the continuity, which the british monarchy is really all about. the palace just trying to be as transparent, they say, as possible. without giving that detail of private medical information which they feel the king has a right to like any other figure. >> they say they put out this note, this statement to prevent speculation. max foster, stay with us. i want to bring in oncologist

dr. zeke emanuel. thanks for joining us today. we are getting some details but not a lot from buckingham palace. king charles just left the hospital after being treated for benign prostate enlargement. you heard max foster reporting that the cancer that king charles has is not prostate cancer. the doctors are going to be treating him, but not enough. he is receiving out patient care. what do you glean from what little we know right now? >> first of all, we should give our sympathy to king charles and his family. in the time you were diagnosed with cancer, even if it is a relatively benign cancer, it is a shock to the system and forces people to reevaluate their entire lives and it takes a lot of adjustment i want to express my sympathy for the family and hope that they can accommodate this. the fact that it is out patient and she was diagnosed in the course of treating the benign

prostate enlargement, it could be anything from a blood test revealing that he could have a blood related cancer. those can be relatively benign. you can live decades with them. it was very, very aggressive. this obviously isn't that time -- kind, because they would not be treating him in outpatient. if he is being treated as outpatient, it's unlikely to be rectal cancer or something like that. this is all speculation. at the moment, i suspect it's going to be not too invasive, but it's going to be sufficiently invasive that he might lose some hair or have other albums like nausea and vomiting that could make public appearances problematic. that's what it suggesting.

>> dr., i am curious about how his family has three of dealing with cancer might be related or might have an impact on this diagnosis. obviously, queen elizabeth, his mother, dealt with cancer. king george also dealt with cancer. his grandfather. what you make of that? >> will grow old. 21, 22% of deaths are interrelated and developed countries. as you grow old, these issues become more common to have. his family has fares in and melanoma. not just ferguson. she is obviously not related to, but there are a large number of the population in any developed countries that have cancer. not a surprise, frankly, that people do develop cancer.

we, in the united states -- jimmy carter is a very good example. ronald reagan. these are relatively common occurrences. >> dr., what would you like to hear in terms of munich getting to the public, beyond the diagnosis, perhaps the treatment, in terms of informing and using this as a teachable moment for the public and what more would you like to hear? >> that's an excellent question. if this is the kind of diagnosis that can be screened for, like melanoma, by an examination of the skin by the patient with her dog her, that would be a very helpful teachable moment, if this is, you know, who knows, but i doubt it, colon cancer. if it's: cancer, that again is something that we can screen four. king charles is just at the cusp of the age. 75 is when we stopped screening

for colorectal cancer because it tends to be relatively slow- growing and the longevity outlasts the cancer. so the public might find it helpful to know that you can screen for whatever cancer he has. we don't know the cancer and we don't know the treatment of treatment for cancer has come a long way in the 30 years since i was in training to become an oncologist. we have huge advances in the kinds of treatment. not merely in many cases as stock because they once were. we just had a recent report for example, not in king charles' case but in breast cancer were half the decrease in mortality is because of better treatment. obviously will have to learn more about his cancer but it's

not the death sentence that it once was read that to be a very helpful teachable moment for the public at large. >> please stand by. we also have christian miser and emily nash. we showed the timeline of these developments in king charles held. about three weeks between announcing his plan to undergo treatment for the large rusted, which was discovered to be benign, and now, announcing that he is this form of cancer where he has begun outpatient treatment. what do you think of this timeline? >> you know, it really speaks to the fact that he is a test of the best medical care, that he is taking the diagnosis seriously and his medical team is looking out for him. i wish we lived in a world where we were all so fortunate where going in for something

routine could really uncover something immediately and then, you know, within days of that being uncovered, that we also get outpatient treatment the waking charles is and i'm really happy on his behalf and i hope that we can someday live in a world where we all have that. it does speak to the access that he has and people are looking out for him. he's got a team looking out for him. >> what can we expect to see going forward? obviously, the king is extremely active. i imagine others will step in for him. then there's the question of counselors of state which max foster reported, won't necessarily -- this is not something that will happen right now because he will continue with some of his activities behind the scenes. given what we know from the buckingham palace statement, what do you think we should expect from the royal family in the coming days? we might have lost emily's

audio there. kristin, can i put that question to you? what do you think we will be seen from prince charles, clean, like, other senior members of the family who are working royals? will be the taking of the king's duties? >> first of all a reminder that we are dealing with a slimmed- down set of senior royals, a slimmed-down monarchy. a couple of years ago we had harry, megan, andrew, the queen. half of this people, we don't have them anymore and we also have eight out of the mission right now as she recovers on her own abdominal surgery that she recently had. we have far fewer people to call on at this point but there is queen camilla and it's been announced that willie m, contrary to what the original plan was, he is going to be returning to duties later this

week. they will be covering a lot of engagement. the palace made it clear that charles is not going to be permanently out of condition. they are treating this like you will be taking a break from some of his duties. the messaging around this is really nobody freak out and he's not completely retiring is not stepping away fully. he's taking a break from some of his duties. his being as active as he is, i think you will be back other relatively soon. the oncologist you were talking with earlier said considering this is an outpatient treatment that charles is receiving, it's safe to assume this is not the most severe version of cancer we are dealing with here. >> we are also getting word from the british prime minister to what extent this is actually an official medical diagnosis

remains to be seen. the prime minister saying i have no doubt that charles will be back to full strength in no time. and i know the whole country will be wishing him well. he wishes his majesty full and speedy recovery. going to ask you all to stay with us. we will have much wine or breaking news just ahead. king charles iii diagnosed with a form of cancer. stay with us. we will be right back.

welcome back. breaking news out of the united kingdom this afternoon. buckingham palace is king charles iii has been diagnosed with a form of cancer. straight to london with cnn max foster. you've been speaking to sources nonstop since the news broke. what is the latest you are hearing? >> i can tell you he is at home in london just up the road as opposed to buckingham palace never really moved out and thereafter being prince of wales. he has not wanted counselors of state. they were talking about that earlier. he does not intend to appoint counselors of state. these are members of the family who can happen to carry out his duties of were somehow unable

to. these sorts of situations would be if he was under anna's data core became incapacitated. he does not see that happening at this point. that maybe suggest something that the doctors can understand from the sort of treatment he is receiving. also the hospital where he is being treated as an outpatient, he has had a bit of contact with his siblings and two children. we know harry will be flying over in a few days time. also the queen in prince william are both expected to step up their public duties in the king's absence on the public stage. to represent the continuity and show that the monarchy is still strong. he will still be receiving the documents that he receives from government, keeping him up to date on government business. he will also be able to carry out council meetings, for example. those of the key advisors to the king. he is able to carry out the top

duties of being monarch but we won't be seeing him in public. now it's the case of managing public at dictation without going into too much medical privacy. a big challenge behind me right now also for the prince of wales and the queen. i think we will's the more prince admin and princess and who are also working royals. the group of working royals has reduced drastically. the queen died, obviously. prince harry and megan left their roles. prince andrew was forced out of his role. we've also got the princess of wales recuperating from an operation, as well. a lot more pressure on the current working royals to give that perception that the monarchy is still strong and able to carry out his duties. >> going to bring in a former

royal wedding commentator. thanks so much for joining us. on the point that max was just making, how do you think the palace and king charles are going to manage the communication with the british public? clearly there is an awareness that there is a need for transparency. went to the hospital for an enlarged prostate. seeing that the lack of information about what kind of cancer this is. we will go back to you. we just lost this, but this is a notable statement from buckingham palace. without providing too much information. as his surrogates go out to walk along the rope lines, they will get covered with questions about that health of the king. millions are going to want to know how their monarch is doing.

how do you expect them to address these questions? >> had a bit of a taste of this last week when the king went into the hospital with an enlarged cross date. does not have prostate cancer. something else that they discovered. after that, asked the clean about the engagement. doing fine and looking forward to getting back to work. going to be huge amounts of media. while the king is out of the public eye. that will be our best education about how he is feeling rid of got the sense tonight that he feels a sense of guilt. he feels apologetic that he will not be able to carry out his public duties and work with the charities in particular. he will focus on his to snow duties. many causes that he takes very seriously. i know he stays up late at

night often beyond midnight working on reports for those charities. he's not going to be able to do that. he feels bad about that. stepping out of the public eye is a big step for him. not his natural does position as it were but i understand it was his medical team that advised him to get out of the public eye. that gives indication about how concerned they are although he is able to carry on his public duties read if he was really concerned about being able to carry on in his position, he would be appointing counselors of date. they've gone out of their way to emphasize, and he has not done that. did not have to give us the detail necessarily but is not planning to appoint them. it does feel as if they are in control of this. he is at home, able to carry out his work and also aware that this will cause a huge amount of alarm. >> significant implications to draw from that.

please stand by. we've ironed out some of that technical difficulties that may have. former royal wedding commentator with us. your reaction to this announcement that king charles iii has cancer. we may not have actually ironed out those tech difficulties, but we will try to get her back. we are going to take a quick break. lots more to discuss about the diagnosis of king charles. news from buckingham palace. that the king has been diagnosed with a form of cancer. stay with us. we will be read back.

this is cnn. life-threatening downpours are slamming california, putting 14 million people at the highest risk of letting. the powerful storm has already caused landslides and power outages. sunday was the rainiest in los angeles nearly 2 decades. one month of rain in just one day. it has left numerous roads flooded or blocked. thousands canceled and an entire report out of commission. nick is on the ground in l.a. county. what kind of conditions are you seeing there? >> the key here is just how much water we are dealing with in l.a. county. this is below the creek. usually not much to write home about. in the spate of nine hours, it rose by 11 feet and see how far

it came up by the look at the debris. a few hours ago i would have been standing underwater. the reason we are having a much here is this storm is just moving so slowly, dumping all this water. she mentioned rainiest day in downtown raleigh in 20 years. we can expect to see a lot of records tumble throughout the day. this system should be moving down towards san diego but it's unclear. it might just hover around l.a. why is this happening? the ocean of the pacific is warmed by climate change. we have an el nino situation, which directs a lot of the storms at california. it's the atmospheric river up in the air. they can carry about 20 times the amount of water than the mississippi river carries. that water is right now being dumped over l.a. 10 million people in the county

and when you have the rain hitting a part of the country that has got quite a lot of rain, quite saturated. it's heading saturated ground, concrete, asphalt uhrich that's why we have this flash flood danger. that's why we've seen houses washed away up in the hollywood hills. so the rain is still going on. we are still monitoring this. we will see where it goes if it hangs here or heads furthers. either way, a lot more of this and more moisture to come. >> it certainly is extraordinary. rain still coming in southern california. nick walked in los angeles county, thank you. senate republican leaders are planning to meet over the landmark order bill that would allow the united needs to shut down the border of migrant crossings hit certain thresholds. counterparts just sent them a rare joint statement saying that the bill is, quote, dead on arrival in the house. senators should reject it.

adding that it does not go far enough and has too many loopholes. the proposed law provides $1.4 billion in aid to help cities overwhelmed by the migrant crisis. cities like denver. reportedly today, denver started discharging migrant shelters -- families from shelters in response to overcrowding. councilman, thanks for sharing part of your day with us. this is obviously a sensitive issue for the ci. ntthat are be housed by this video as we speak are now being asked to leave, many of them are, where they going to go? >> before i start, i want to say on behalf of the folks in the city and i will say on behalf of myself that our thoughts and prayers go out to king charles and his family. we know the diagnosis of cancer

is impactful. just the diagnosis. i am a 12 year cancer survivor. just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge the impact on him, his family, and to the country. know that our thoughts and prayers go with him. i want to answer your question directly. we have within the city and county of denver provided support for over 38,000 migrants over the last six months over the last year. we currently have over 4000 migrants residing in shelter within the city and county of denver. the shelters are full. and you are correct, there will be a process in the next coming weeks in which we are moving migrants out of shelters into some other level of stable housing. but the city and county of denver absolutely need support and help to be able to find places for all of these folks who are seeking help from our

country. we are not a border state. we do not receive federal funds from the government to sit or this migrant policy that we are having to build, so we do need support. >> to that point, if the current numbers persist, mayor mike johnston says the taxpayers will roughly be spending $180 million $180 million this year alone on the city's migrant crisis. the agency has budget cuts to pay for that what you say to constituents who see this is unacceptable, that they might see their public services diminished over this help that the city is offering to people who are undocumented? >> thank you for that question. i will start first on the community that we have. across the board, we have a

spectrum of political ideology when it comes to work authorization. what work authorization provides for us is the opportunity for asylum-seekers, no matter where they come from, to actually get to work. two build work while they're waiting for their case to go through to be approved or disapproved. that step alone can be done within the federal government without going into comprehensive issues. without this we would not be looking at a $180 million charge or tax to residents of denver. these folks work or stay in denver, or work on to other municipalities. they will be able to do that but it would not be based on taxpayers footing the bill. i think it's important in this country. one of the things we've been asking county commissioners and the mayor and city has been asking the federal government is to act on what bipartisan support is available or, work

authorization. that will make it less impactful to taxpayers covering the bill for folks who are seeking asylum in our city. >> what i am hearing is that your message to constituents with you to go out and vote for lawmakers that would pursue that kind of policy. is that fair? >> that is part of it. i am also encouraging, as county commissioner, who votes for the budget of denver, we are going to look at ways that asylum-seekers are able to move to cities and communities that they really want to be in. denver is very cold. we are not a city of choice for most of these asylum-seekers. until this occurs, we will have to foot the bill because of our broken immigration policies. we will be looking closely at where these things come in. making sure that where there are impacts to our city budget that we are not cutting ftes or

employees and we are not cutting specific services that will harm our eddie. right now this eddie and county of denver and many other municipalities across the country that do not have an immigration policy that are directly impacted by federal government's inability to pass comprehensive immigration reform. we will have to make some tough decisions in the next few weeks. >> darrell watson, we have to leave the conversation there. we appreciate you sharing your perspective. and glad to hear that you beat cancer. thanks for sharing with us. >> thank you. we are very proud of you in denver. great to see you. >> thanks so much. i did spend some time in denver before. thank you. >> we are proud of him here, as well. in the meantime, more u.s. military action in the middle east and u.s. central command says they launched a series of strikes against rebels in yemen. that was on sunday. destroying a chef with missiles

that were threatening targets in the red sea and beyond. those strikes marked the third straight day of military operations in the region. on saturday, the u.s. and uk hit some 36 targets in the human and on friday, bombers destroyed dozens of targets in iraq and syria that were operated by iran backed militia groups in the islamic revolutionary guard force. allied forces in syria have been attacked three times in the wake of these assault. the u.s. has been ramping up operations in the middle east after the killing of three u.s. soldiers in jordan reed officials are vowing further actions. joining us now is the top democrat on the house intelligence committee congressman jim himes. thank you so much for joining us. when it comes to the u.s. retaliating against iran and iran backed groups in iraq and

syria emma you said that the u.s. response needs to be enormously expensive. what does that actually mean? what needs to happen beyond what we have seen in terms of targets that we saw on riding night? >> i'm glad you asked this question. the answer to that is very clear. we are in an election year. there is so much noise out there. the answer is very simple. i ran and the rgc must tell their proxies that they need to stop attacking american bases. the reason that what happened is when this series of attacks against our bases, there were a lot of them before the deaths of the three american serviceman. the response to that needs to be enormously expensive, both to the proxies and iraq -- iran. not trying to wipe out every

last iran sponsored group. that would require a lot of americans on the ground. just trying to get them to stop doing what they are doing. i believe that is achievable. intelligence indicates that they do not want a wider war here and there in pain with these days of strikes now. >> is it striking inside iran? what is actually painful for iran to get them to be deterred and to tell their proxies to essentially stand down? >> what is painful is what happens when you're on the receiving end of the ordinance dropped out of a b-1 or a cruise missile. you're not sitting in yemen or syria, but iraq right now. all of those sites have experienced something fairly apart the poet -- apocalyptic. all the equipment taken away, and not all. you can't do that without troops on the ground. lots of logistics to get there. they lost people. the big picture here, we want

to make sure that this is not enormously expensive. we also don't want to escalate. there have been calls to do strikes inside iran. usually made by people who have no responsibility for standing by what it is they decide should be done. if we kill civilians inside iran, iran has its politics just like the united states. they will undergo a leadership transition. the response to that would likely be escalate tory. the white house is trying to balance between making this very expensive without making it worse than it already is. >> the white house also trying to separate these out and make iraq and syria separate from what they're doing. separate from what the lebanese are doing when it comes to hezbollah. you see these as separate issues or interconnected? >> they don't need to be interconnect did, right? it's the iranian choice to make them interconnected grid simple declarative statement. hamas, which was the

perpetrator of the october 7th attack, is to be held accountable for the october 7th attack. we don't like that, but they don't much need to be involved. it's an iranian choice to get them involved. it's dangerous and escalate tory. at the end of the day if you believe no matter how much you may want to martyr yourself that you can come out on the winning end with a b-1 bomber, do it because you will quickly learn that you cannot do that. this is iran's moment to say let's try to contain this. and already apocalyptic and difficult situation with israel- gaza. i run can make it harder with one phone call. >> he may not want a wider war but there proxies keep on coming. congressman jim himes, top democrat on the house intelligence committee, thank you so much. >> president biden has just released a statement regarding king charles' cancer diagnosis, saying that he is concerned. resident biden's as he is

expect it to speak soon with the king. god willing, he says. we will bring you updates as we get them right here. taking a quick break. we will be right back.

more problems to tell you about for boeing in its embattled series of max 9 jet. holes in the fuselages of several planes and production. these planes have to be reworked. lauren will have to delay delivery of dozens of jets operated by airline companies. aviation corresponded joins us now in studio. the latest setback has to do with the supplier. >> here is the newest development.

the contractor that builds the fuselage for boeing is owning this problem. spirit aerosystems confirms it is the major supplier that drills holes on planes, still on the production line and that notified telling of these problems. nonetheless, another black eye for boeing in its quality control as it tries to clean up its reputation over last month's max 9 door plug blowout. they say while the essential condition is not an immediate flight safety issue and all 737s can continue operating safely, we believe we will have to perform rework on about 50 undelivered airplanes. the company must get it right. so they are slowing down 737 production which could mean delayed delivery of newer veins. not a good luck as airlines like united airlines say they are already not thrilled about being on the order book for the

max. the federal aviation administration said today it will reimagine how it inspect boeing airplanes before they leave the factory. tomorrow, the faa administrator will appear before long is on capitol hill. they've specifically asked for the chief to address its oversight of boeing. we could see a elementary report from the national transportation safety board on alaska flight 1282. this is the incident that reviewed all of this to me for boeing read >> the statement said it was not much of a safety issue, but you hear miss drilled holes on an airplane. what does that mean? >> the bottom line is that this is just one more in the litany of quality control issues that boeing has had with their own work and workplace. aerosystems, their main supplier. we don't know the logistics yet . in windows, we know this

specifically from the faa today but we don't know exactly what it would cost -- cause or lead to. just one more piece of the saga here about boeing's quality. >> does not sound great. yeah. >> appreciate it. >> anytime. 20 of more news to come including the kansas city chiefs and san francisco 49ers touching down in lost vegas. ahead of super bowl lviii. we explain plenty of highrolling action for the first title game in sin city. we've got a preview straightahead.
