11:02 am
significant attack and according to iran's ambassador to syria, at least five people were killed in the strike that essentially leveled or ron's consulate there in damascus? he put the blame squarely on israel. now, we have not gotten confirmation from the israelis about whether or not these were their missiles that destroyed this building but we are learning from iranian state media that a top iranian islamic revolutionary guard corps commander was killed in this attack veteran commander the irgc, who was the head of irgc ground forces. now the irgc of course, is a ron's military wing. and importantly, he was a member according to iranian state media of ron's force, which is responsible for some of the more dramatic operations that are on carries out around the world. and so iran has now said that it is going to respond quote decisively. and the question of course, is, how is this going to escalate the conflict? the state department e's responding at this hour and
11:03 am
they are saying that they are in conversations with partners in the region to try to gather more information about just what happened here. but importantly, according to state department spokesperson matt miller hello. he said we were always concerned about anything that would be escalatory or cause an increase of conflict in the region. and so the us, of course, does not want to see this escalate and it is important to note that we have seen a dramatic drop-off to the point where they have completely ceased in attacks by iran-backed militants in syria and iraq on us troops who are stationed in those countries. the question now of course, is that as or-awn vows to respond extremely decisively to this attack on its consulate in damascus. will those attacks startup again, is there going to be some kind of dramatic ramification here because of the strike. but again, still no words the israelis, on whether this was a strike carried out by their fighter jets, by their missiles. but of course, the state department continuing to try to get in touch with all of the relevant partners in the region to figure out what
11:04 am
happened. >> yeah concerns had somewhat ease that the conflict in gaza would escalate beyond and further in the region. but now that appears to be potentially changing natasha bertrand. thank you so much for the update brianna, after a two-week siege is really troops had withdrawn from gaza's al-shifa hospital. it's not the first time that they've rated that hospital, but this time that reportedly resulted in hundreds of deaths and entire city blocks being reduced to rubble. a witness in gaza telling cnn, quote feels like a horror movie. israel says hamas and affiliated militants were using the medical complex as a base to regroup. let's go to cnn's melissa bell, who is live for us in jerusalem, and melissa protests obviously, were you are have been calling on prime minister netanyahu to resign. they continue what details? emerged in the aftermath of this hospital siege >> well, a great deal of anger amongst these crowds about exactly the kind of images
11:05 am
you've just been talking about, the scenes of devastation nearly six months on a lot just from the start of this war, but also of course, for this crowd here from the hostage taking, that vogt, it and we've been hearing it, the crowds of p3 out now, we've been hearing from hostage family members, but also and i think it's important, rionda, what we've seen in this crowd today are a lot of former soldiers, idf soldiers, commanders former idf commodities were extremely unhappy about how this war has been prosecuted, how long it's lawson having listened to what one former idf had doubt, that the military operation was crucial to the destiny of phase. well we need to remember, we have experienced a terrible massacre of israeli civilians. no nation is willing to take such an ordeal and say, all right, it's okay. so i
11:06 am
think this is the most just war week ever conducted in the near past. but i think that right now this war is terribly conducted by this government all right >> melissa bell, life for us in jerusalem. thank you so much for that report. >> boris let's discuss the developments in the middle east with cnn political and national security analysts, david sanger. his new book is out on april 16th. it's called new cold war's david, i'm excited to read the book let's start with a conversation about the breaking news we led the hour with the apparent strike on the uranian consulate building in damascus, syria of the uranian ambassador pointing the finger at israel. israel says it doesn't comment on foreign media reports what do you make of the attack and the likelihood that this was potentially the idf
11:07 am
>> well, it seems that's the highest likelihood that it was the idf. i'm not a certainty it's a fascinating and in some ways risky move you're going to now bet about how the iranians will respond. >> the >> israelis in till now have taken the position that they will go after iranian commanders or anyone else who they believe are masterminds behind the attacks? on israelis from lebanon and, and all that. but the problem is here that they are still deeply engaged in gaza and the whole effort has been to keep this war from spreading to the north and this may well give the iranians and excuse to do that until now, as you've heard from natasha bertrand we've seen something of a calming down and this
11:08 am
could undo all of that and flame the situation pretty quickly. >> david put that into context for us in the prism of where prime minister benjamin netanyahu is right now because he is at a point of vulnerability as we've watched, these protests escalate over recent days, and especially into the weekend, as we saw with melissa bell with tense being set up outside the israeli parliament. what is the significance of the timing here >> well, there are two possibilities have come immediately. the mine one is the timing was merely a military moment of opportunity where they knew where these commands andrews were and they had an open shot at them and one where they thought they might be able to minimize civilian casualties, though, right now, we don't know what those casualties may have been. the other is that prime minister netanyahu sees the risk of an expanded war as
11:09 am
politically beneficial. potentially to him, that his entire reason for staying in office has been to defend israel in the wake of the october 7 attacks. and of course, the american concern is that he has done this in the hardest possible way. in a way that is caused at least 30,000 lives so far. and those protests that you saw marked the end of that period of grace that netanyahu had, where the israelis took the view that even if he was not their preferred leader, he who's their wartime leader. and you're now seeing that fracture. he may see some benefit in the war revving up. >> well, that is the criticism from some of the folks that are calling for new elections. they say that he's capitalised on this tragedy in this war to further cement his position in
11:10 am
leadership and dodge severe criticism of his handling not only of the war, but of the leadup to the war and the intelligence failures that led up to october 7. as we watch these protests ramp up, is there in your mind enough support? for new elections in israel that may see benjamin netanyahu move on as prime minister >> i think there is probably growing support, but it's pretty remarkable within israel about how much support there is for the war even with the western criticism of the excesses of the civilian casualties you heard in that earlier reports on israelis saying this war has been conducted in the worst possible way, whether or not it has been the militarily worst possible way, it is certainly eroded support for israel around the
11:11 am
world here in the united states as well, you hear american officials quietly saying that they're having a very hard time even defending the american continued provision of arms to the israelis when they're talking to their allies so we're at a break point right now where netanyahu is trying to hold together his coalition internally and trying to create the conditions that would enable them to put off those investigations. you referred to because once those start he's not going to be in control of the agenda, right >> i do want to ask you about the inflection point also coming as israel has vowed, this operation into rafah the us has tried to dissuade is really officials from pursuing it. they see it as potentially >> here huge a major catastrophe for israel in the context of that, the global
11:12 am
optics, as you described it, the world waning and its support for israel, and its cause is there an opportunity for the us here as we understand that they're going to be holding virtual meetings between biden administration officials and members of netanyahu's government is there an opportunity really here for the united states to try to persuade netanyahu to move away from an operation into rafah or to perhaps reconsider the way that it's executed. >> well, the argument that the us has been making is if you're going to go into rafah, do it in some other ways using commando raids, going after the militants here, the way israel, a generation ago when after the perpetrators of the munich tragedy the olympics where they hunted them down over a period of years but obviously didn't engage in the kind of broad bombing we've seen here. >> it's
11:13 am
>> possible that netanyahu may be able to, at some point say, i wanted to go into rafah. we needed to, but the americans wouldn't let me and that might actually be somewhat to his political advantage. so far though, that's not what he's done in the months leading up to this. he has listened to the americans and then gone on with his plans. anyway but in this case, so much of the population of gaza has been pushed down to the southern end. that if he goes into rafah right in the midst of that, you're going to see probably horrific civilian casualties and i suspect the americans are saying to him that could be a breakpoint hi, sanger always appreciate your perspective and expertise. thanks for being with us. >> great to be with you >> look forward to reading the book. thanks again still had this hour on cnn news central, the biden campaign has a new strategy. the very specific voting group they are building the president's schedule around. and fast food workers in california getting a major

11:19 am
in november with a key voting block. now getting a big share of their attention, cnn is learning the problem because of its travel schedule is being built in part around maximizing his time in black communities. and that's because his campaign now believes a win could very well hinge on black voters concerning them, the fact that former president donald trump is making headway with those voters in recent polls, we have cnn's isaac dovere here with us now isaac, tell us about what the campaign is doing and just how worried they are about losing some black voters. it's not as if they would have to lose all or significant portion. this is really something that happens in the margins. >> yeah, and importantly, it's not as much worrying about a black voters moving to trump because that doesn't seem to be happening in large numbers. but, not showing up. if you look at the states where joe biden wants to win, where wants to be competitive, and hopes for a second term. those battleground states michigan,
11:20 am
wisconsin, pennsylvania, georgia, north carolina those all have large concentrations of black voters in milwaukee, detroit, philadelphia, pittsburgh, right? you go through the list there and that is the focus here of getting people to turn out to make up part of the winning coalition that biden will need to have in november, it goes through the list of what black turnout and been over the last bunch of years. and when black voting, black voter turnout has been higher it has lead to good things for democrats winning presidential elections. that's what they're thinking about here. but if you look at what happened in 2016, donald trump won 8% of black voters according to cnn exit polls in 20 12%. again, not a huge, big but he has played into a level of disenchantment and disengagement within a lot of among a lot of black voters feeling like the political process isn't doing much for them. and there's really no point. and if they don't show up, then those are votes. joe biden's going to need to make up elsewhere and it's harder to do how confident are they
11:21 am
that he can perform close to what he did in 2020? and what are they doing to try to make that house? >> it's a big challenge. and the hope here for the biden campaign is to be able to say, look at the things that joe biden has done, look at student loan relief, look at programs for they came out the american rescue plan, all sorts of things that have been to move wealth and in a direction for black americans, where they want it to be, it's a huge growth in that area but what they have been trying to do is go to black voters who have not been hearing from politicians. i was in wisconsin talking to people for this article. it's up on our site. and they said to me that in some of the community engagement, they'd be doing, they call it relational organizing, having people pick up their cell phones and text their own contexts or go to community events and say, look, i just want have a conversation with you, talk about this that half of the people that they're contacting that way, we're not in the voter file there, which
11:22 am
means that they weren't being talked to buy the campaigns in 2022 are in 2020. this is a generation, essentially a black voters that have now to be engaged by the biden campaign in if they want to get them to where they need them to be in november. >> yet really interesting, and they have a lot of work cut out for themselves, isaac, thank you so much for the great reporting for us >> meanwhile, on capitol hill, house speaker mike johnson isn't a fight for his own political future with his gavel being challenged by a member of his own party congresswoman marjorie taylor greene, threatening johnson with a motion to vacate, much like we saw happen with his predecessor, former house speaker kevin mccarthy johnson meantime, is found an unlikely ally of a lawmaker, responsible for ousting his predecessor, congressman matt gaetz gaetz tells cnn he's strategizing with johnson and the speaker is aware that his fate is tied to aid bill. >> let's bring in cnn's >> melanie zanona with more details. melanie democrats and republicans in the senate have been pushing for this bill that
11:23 am
gaetz has been adamantly opposed to. so what does it tell us? plus that gaetz is now strategizing with the house speaker >> well, i think it's very clear that speaker johnson is paying close attention to the demands of his right flank. remember he already infuriated of republican hardliners when he put that bipartisan spending deal on the floor late last month. and so he cannot afford to infuriate them again, when it comes to ukraine or else he could face a floor vote on a motion to vacate his speakership. that is why you've seen johnson strategizing and consulting with republicans like matt gaetz and johnson has been working over the recess break to put together a ukraine proposal that is the least politically damaging for his speakership are manu raju caught up with matt gaetz it's about some of his conversations with the speaker. here's what he had to say >> i'm glad the speaker hasn't rolled over to the $95,000,000,000 ukraine supplemental that the senate passed and i think that he's forging a better path on that
11:24 am
issue. i talked to the speaker often his good friend of mine was sat next to each other for seven years. i gave the speaker some unsolicited advice that we've got to get into a fighting posture and i was very pleased with how the speaker received that advice >> now, johnson has not yet finalized a ukraine bill, but he has offered some clues about what it might look like, including turning the aid into a loan that is something that donald trump has floated. and clearly that would be a way to try to get some skeptical republicans on board with ukraine funding. but johnson has to be careful here because he does need significant democratic support to get this thing over the finish line. so some really big decisions for johnson in the coming days that will not only have implications for ukraine in its war against russia, but also implications for his speakership, boris yeah, that motion to vacate hanging like a cloud over the conference. melanie zanona. thank you so much. brianna. >> all right. let's talk more now with cnn, senior political analyst gloria borger is with us here. it's interesting. he's looking for a proposal on
11:25 am
ukraine aid with some innovations. so this idea of alone is sort of interesting i'm good, i just wonder if you think there's a path forward to him doing all of that, and keeping his job as he talks to some of these folks, there may be if he can convince enough democrats that the lone makes sense where would he be or there's some talk about getting what they call a pay for balanced saying it out, getting the money from somewhere else not deficit-spend. so it's not deficit spending and all of this is just moving numbers around. and i don't know that a lot of democrats are going to buy that so i think not only does he have to get a buy-in from people like marjorie taylor greene and conservatives, even matt gaetz. but he has to get buy-in from the democrats because his margin is so narrow, he has no room to maneuver so his job is on the line and money for
11:26 am
ukraine is on the line. and that is that's the most important thing here. and by the way, a lot of republicans want the aid to ukraine so he's got, he's got a job. he's got to do do you think in a certain point some of these republicans who are inclined to do the motion to vacate to fire johnson, or at least consider it, start to realize that >> they're just going to go through this, all this drama all over again and look terrible. >> they look goofy, but they look like they can't govern. they have the islamist majority. you can possibly have and they look like they don't know what they can do with it. i mean, this has been the least productive congress in recent memory, and this is something that's hanging over their heads that's very important to most people in the house, by the way. and they look, they look absurd and ridiculous and it's not going to help him with the voters. in the election. >> so you just heard isaac dove years reporting about how the
11:27 am
biden campaign is trying to target black voters because they really are, could be the key in these states of matter so much to him, how does he break through? >> well, i think he does it in a bunch of ways. he's traveling to all of these areas. it's going to be helpful, but i personally thank he's gotta use a lot of surrogates. joe biden is somebody these voters are not enthusiastic about. and so what he's gotta do is use different surrogates who might appeal to these voters and get them out there on the campaign trail. and also remind them of what he has done childcare tax credits remind them what it was like during covid and how bad things were. and remind them about the american rescue plan and what he has done for them i think people have amnesia you know, they have a little bit of amnesia about donald trump. and what donald trump did or did not do for a, for black voters.
11:28 am
and so i think he's got to get that message out there and it's not you know it's not going to be easy because the poll numbers show that somewhere upwards of 20% now of black voters in these states, in some of the battleground states say they're going to vote for donald trump. i'm not sure that i believe that that it will turn out that way, but it's it's a big hole for them because they one that vote by such a majority and they have not one vote to spare >> yeah. and he's been creeping up with support from black voters, donald trump has, over the elections marginally, right? but that also matters, especially when you have some folks who might say, i'm not going to participate so pain i wanted to participate in right. you mentioned amnesia. >> there are also >> a lot of people who seem to have amnesia about january 6 right? right. and the possibility of violence in politics that donald trump is very aware of. and yet we saw over the weekend or on friday, he shared a video oh, that
11:29 am
included this picture of president biden tied up and gagged in the back of a pickup truck. and i just think we need to be very clear about what this kind of thing means when donald trump knows what some of his supporters it's a permission slip for people to act inappropriately and violently and lower the >> level of political discourse in this country. and it it, it also, i'm also would include the way he acts towards judges in his court cases and what he sends out on truth, social, it is a permission slip for people to behave badly. and in that particular case, to behave violently and, you know, that is also something i think that the biden folks need to remind people of because this election
11:30 am
is going to be won or lost by people who are not enthusiastic right now, they're not enthusiastic and they have a few choices they can decide they want to vote for biden or trump they can stay home and sit on the couch or and this is really important. they can be so fed up, they'll decide to go with an independent candidate. we'd like an rfk junior, and that will hurt joe biden tremendously and so they've got to point out to these voters, look at what he's doing here and remind them what it was like when he was president and remind them about january 6 and hopefully they can get back some of those voters that way. >> yeah, the debate is not academic. we saw it. donald trump site. and we know what can happen exactly. gloria, thank you so much. >> always appreciate she added. >> next, it is a good day to be a fast food worker in california. but what about a fast food customer? the major

11:36 am
>> cnn's natasha >> chen is live from los angeles. that's quite an increase. i think anyone would love to see that. natasha, what are you hearing? from workers >> brianna, this applies to fast food locations where there are more than 60 nationwide stores. so it's the larger fast food chains that you're familiar with, the workers we've talked to over the last several years. i've been covering the since 20 in 20 this is a long, hard-fought win for them. they have been working toward this for a long time, and at least one worker who's going to speak with me right after this live shot said that she's been living with her two parents, one who also works adam with her and the other who's a construction worker, they've been living in the same space together and the same unit since the 90s and she's hoping that this may be the first step in affording a slightly more comfortable place sometimes buying a cup of coffee and having a little bit of an easier time paying the bills but to be clear, this law
11:37 am
also creates a first of its kind, fast counsel to help address some of the safety issues, wage theft, and other company planks that fast food workers have hoping that this council, with representation from both the restaurant side and the worker side can help address some of that >> it tell us about this concern and who has it that this new law might actually backfire? >> yeah. so obviously, the people coming together to have a seat at this council table they all feel like this is a good step in everyone coming together to solve some problems. the wages are a huge point of debate, right? we have a minimum wage now set for just this industry and that wage can go up based on inflation for the rest of this decade if the council so chooses to do so, there are franchise owners who own maybe just a few locations some of them owning just one location who are now having to
11:38 am
deal with a major increase in cost. and so some are cutting back worker hours. some are implementing new technology like self-serve for kiosks and experimenting with ai and drive-thrus to absorb some of that cost another franchise owner tells me he is really going to try to preserve the people, the jobs, the hours, and instead cut back elsewhere. here just what he said >> people are my most important asset. so the very last thing that i want to impact are the hours of my employees and the positions of my employees. and so i'm trying to do everything that i can through price, through more thoughtful capex decisions to not have to impact folks jobs because human beings run my restaurants >> both he and another franchise owner, i was just speaking to have raised their menu prices across the board in general, about three to 7%

1807123800 >> this is cnn news a new health alert from the cdc measles cases are rising in the, at an alarming rate >> with cases in just the first three months let's of this year surpassing the total number for all of 2023. and as of friday, we're seeing 97 cases across
11:54 am
the country. half of those ending and hospitalizations with chicago been particularly hard hit. cnn health reporter jacqueline howard is following all of this for us and jacqueline tell us what's behind this surge in cases well, briana, two things are happening. one, we know that some cases are travel-related, so the person acquired the measles virus outside of the us and then traveled here. but two and what's very concerning is many of these cases are tied to low vaccination rates here in the, we know that some of these outbreaks are occurring and pockets of communities where we're seeing low vaccination rates and we have a very effective vaccine against the measles virus. the measles mumps and rubella vaccine. so as we look at the numbers so far this year, as you said, there are 97 total cases that have been reported across 17 in states and new york city here in the 97 is more than all of the cases we saw last year in
11:55 am
2023, there were 50 cases total for the country. today is april 1st, brianna and we're already at 97. so this is something health officials are watching closely, measles is so contagious joseph, an infected person coughs or sneezes. it can linger in the air for up to two hours, but we do know the vaccine is 97% effective. so that's the main message here, is we really have to rely on getting vaccinations and vaccination rates up to help reduce the risk of these kind of outbreaks occurring. brianna and also want to ask you about bird flu because the second case is just been reported in the and it's connected to cattle >> that's right. this case was reported in the state of texas and we know that the health department says this patient works on a dairy farm and became ill following contact with dairy cows, prison zoomed to be infected with avian influenza, with bird flu. so this does not change the risk
11:56 am
level for the nation, but it is something that health officials are watching closely seen this possible connection with dairy cows is something that's really, really good in a lot of attention. but again, this is not raised the risk level for the nation. it's the first case in the state of texas and like he said, the second case nationally and it's something that health officials are keeping a close eye on brianna as they should be jacqueline howard. thank you so much for that report. we appreciate it. >> and coming up next hour, we're expecting into here from maryland officials with the latest on the bridge collapse in baltimore, the governor is expected to speak and we're going to bring that to you, live stay with us >> check >> we hear nothing. >> a spatial i don't accidents, usually not one thing. it's a series of events is that part of the wing coming apart? >> space shuttle columbia,
