rock the block. all new monday night at nine on hgtv hello again. >> everyone thank you so much for joining me this sunday. i'm fredricka whitfield. are new this our us senate majority leader, chuck schumer says the us is ready to swiftly respond to any potential iranian attack. cnn has learned the us is on high alert and actively preparing for a significant iranian attack that could come as soon as this week targeting israeli or american assets in the region all this follows an airstrike in syria last week that killed top iranian commanders an attack which iran blamed on israel, white house correspondent priscilla alvarez is in washington forests. priscilla, what exactly is schumer elaborating on? >> well, he is saying the us is prepared to respond and respond swiftly in response to that potential attack by iran that could come in the coming days

and responses you mentioned there. but in response to i should say, that is really air strike in damascus that killed multiple top iranian commanders. now, the us and israeli governments have been on high alert. they've also been in close touch and knowing that this could happen and going so far as to say that they see it as quote, inevitable. now, we're not clear on how this attack would unfold nor when it would happen exactly. but officials and dissipate that it would target us or israeli assets in the middle east. and so senate majority leader chuck schumer, making clear that the us is preparing for any outcome care, take a listen i know the president and his team are working hard to prevent escalation. and our bare to defend any attack and response with leave if necessary, tensions in the middle east are very high that's why we want to pass the national security

supplemental. it's critical. >> and we are all >> urging speaker johnson to put it on the floor of the house >> now according to officials, the worst-case scenario here would be a direct strike buyer ran on israel that could rapidly escalate an already tense region. the white house, of course, trying to avoid a broader regional conflict. again, the senate leader are saying today that us though, is prepared for all possibilities all right. >> priscilla >> alvarez. thanks so much. and washington her were also following a major development in the war in gaza after months of intense fighting, israel says it is withdrawing its ground forces from the southern city of khan yunis israel described the area as a major hamas stronghold, and we're also learning that israel's planned reopening of the erez border crossings in the north of gaza is being delayed. it would have allowed for more aid to flow into gaza. and it all comes as israel marks, a grim

milestone, it has been exactly six months today since hamas attacked the gaza ministry of health says more than 33,000 palestinians have been killed in the war. nic robertson is in jerusalem for us, but wedeman and beirut nick, let's go to you first. what is it? israel saying about that withdrawal from khan yunis >> the way that it's framing it in the language that it's using is intended to convey that this is a significant shift. the timing because important talks are again, trying to bridge that gap between hamas israel, over hostage release and ceasefire. so potentially it has significance, their significance of course, for the troops themselves who've been in khan yunis since december, and significant, of course, for the palestinians of khan yunis, who many of whom obviously fled and today had a chance to go back see some of the damaged.

but the way the idf is fleeing this, they say it is marking, it is effectively more or marking and affective ending of ground operations in gaza in their current form? so this was a very big division. the 98th division that's pulled out. we were on the border today. we saw strikes still going into khan yunis. we saw the dozens upon dozens of tanks and dozens upon dozens of armored fighting vehicles. now out of gaza, parked up in their field, in the fields, troops were stripping equipment out of repairing them and the idf is saying that the troops now we'll get recuperation and preparation for their next operations and the idf is leaving very clearly the door open for an operation on that major place where palestinians living in the south of gaza rather, but they're also saying they're leaving significant forces in the north both of gaza, hundred and 62nd division and an another brigade of tough

combat troops there. so the message is clear. there's a drawdown, but the war is not over. and i think we've got a sensor that from general herzi halevi, the army idf chief of staff, saying we still know that there are there are hamas commanders who are hiding out. and the clear implication is they will reach out and target them as the opportunity arises. >> all right. nic robertson, thanks so much. it's going to bend wisdom. and now in beirut israel is also saying today that it's preparing to move to attack posture from defense on the border with lebanon. what's the interpretation of that? >> well, this is a statement they came out from the israeli military in arabic, as well as in english, the english statement said? just talks about readiness for the transition from defense to offense. the arabic version, however, as translated came out is it's preparing to move from

defense to attack. so that's set off alarm bells certainly here in lebanon now, over the last few days, we've had a series of developments that certainly indicate the tensions are rising yesterday, there were as many as ten hezbollah strikes on israeli positions and also yesterday hizballah was able to shoot down up hermes 19 is rarely drone in lebanese airspace. that is a very sophisticated drones that has the capacity to fire missiles as well as collect and relay information back to base. also a few days ago, we heard that the israeli military has canceled all leaves for combat units and was recalling reservists for air defense units as well. so certainly tensions rising and it's not made any better by the fact

that everyone is anticipating some form of iran in response to the attack on the iranian consulate, the israeli attack on the iranian consulate in damascus. now the other your day, we did here the secretary general of nasrallah, of hezbollah, hassan nasrallah saying that the iranian response is habitable, but it will be in iran in response, not via any of the ron's proxies are allies in the region that rica, all right. >> ben wedeman, nic robertson, thanks >> to both of the appreciate it. >> all right. let's bring in aaron david miller now he's a former state department middle east negotiator. and as senior fellow at the carnegie endowment >> so good to see you. let's focus on gaza. what's happening there or not happening because israel says it's withdrawing from khan yunis what do you believe is behind that

>> if you're always initially may have deployed 100,000 forces for their ground campaign and i think they've demobilized six significant number of reserves and now i think there are simply down shifting they're making a virtue out of necessity. >> i'm not sure. >> they would >> argue that there's a need for heavy-duty military response using ground forces and comprehensive airstrikes. >> i think there's >> perhaps to a more selective use of military force to try to target senior leaders. tried to hold to some degree the areas that they cleared and of course, to continue to look for intelligence with respect to where hamas senior leadership is hiding in almost certainly surrounding those leadership or the, uh, hundred and 34 hostages, 31 the israelis, i think believed were either killed on october 7, their bodies taken to gaza to trade or they guided died in

captivity. so i think it's significant so as sources sharing information with cnn a little bit more about the phone call that happened between president >> biden and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. and that biden said, there are some conditions you've going to have to do more to assist and help with the humanitarian need there. and now we're hearing that the erez crossing, which was part of that conversation, apparently has not been reopened, i guess, as promised, at the time in which it was promised. what does this say about the cooperation or lack thereof, even after a conversation involving the president and the prime minister about anyone imposing any kind of conditions on israel. as a result of the humanitarian crisis, continuing to grow grow. and we're i think the administration has certain metrics, opening crossing points is clearly one

of those metrics score better coordination to say the >> least, to avoid that, a catastrophic attack by israeli drones against world kitchen central on and the deaths of seven aid workers, you know, err is the erez crossing where it was never a crossing point to facilitate the movement of large amounts of material and trucks. it was viewed as a crossing point for palestinian aid workers. excuse me, that was sitting workers working in israel. there was also a report today that 322 trucks need to confirm that went into gaza delivering humanitarian assistance, which is the largest single number of trucks entering gaza strip since october 7. so i think the administration has put mr. netanyahu on probation. i do believe however, the president is not looking for a major fight, and i think he's given the israelis frankly a test they could easily pass this.

this should have happened months ago. the port of ashdod is only what, 15 to 20 miles north of gaza and has all the screening facilities necessary to accept screen humanitarian assistance, and then truck this stuff in northern gaza without the need to go the extra mile house to rafah or kerem shalom. the other two crossing points that are open. so i think the israelis, you're taking this seriously, but de trust but verify. >> and of course that called between men yahoo and biden came after those seven aid workers were killed. and now listen to what jose andres soon as the head of the world central kitchen, what he said earlier today about the israeli strike that killed his seven colleagues obviously idf has a lot of questions to ask themselves. what is ugly? are they there are they, they are really two bring home safely all those hostages that the are

suffering of shorey, israel had the right to defend itself of show what happened to on october 7, two israeli something should never happen that was an atrocity what are your thoughts on his challenge >> i mean clearly, i mean three things. number one, i think it's a sad commentary to be sure that it took all of this time in the killing of seven aid workers and jose andres, he does extraordinary work of $500 million charity, but it took all this time to get the administration's attention and to bring necessary pressure against israel to surge, try to surge humanitarian us. it's in the gaza. >> you have to wonder who has power and influence >> thousands of palestinians >> suffered food insecurity. now on the verge of catastrophic star so that it took jose andres to basically get the administration's attention. i think it's a sad

commentary. i'm glad he did sad commentary. and what oh, we consider cool. we consider important and what we consider and look, the guy is obviously an enormous amount to an a distress. so understandable, don't agree with everything that he said, but clearly unbalanced. he's doing remarkable things. >> yeah, very powerful. all right. aaron, david miller. good to see you. thanks >> thanks, ryan >> are sturdy ahead. >> excitement as billing as we count down until tomorrow, solar eclipse how some cities in the path of totality are gearing up for this rare celestial events plus severe storms could threaten some people's view of the eclipse will look at what's in store after the break >> we'll play bankers with a national champion this is the greatest stage and all of sports is what dreams are made.

go through the day today because those wins were really start to relax. so you can see, we can still find some gusts. 2030, 40 miles per hour from north platte back towards denver garden city there. but they do kind of calm down, relax, and ease up the wind conditions should be better as we continue to go through the de to then into tomorrow. so that's some good news for people that are still in the dark. now, we also have some dry air in place with these incredibly gusty winds and what that does is that sparks buyer conditions when you have the dry air, the dry ground, an incredibly gusty winds. so again, not great news for people in texas that have already dealt with significant fires earlier dear? yeah. all right. lisa, thank you so much. it's gotta camila bernal. she's with us as well to give us an idea of how many people were without power right now, what are they doing >> well, look, trying to figure out what they can do without that power and trying to hopefully stay safe in terms of the fire, it is it's better to have those power outages in

case there's any potential for more danger as of now, we know that in colorado, this morning, about 300,000 people were without power. but we were told that about 150,000 of them were because of the actual impacts of the wind the rest were more preventative measures to avoid any more pollen disability of danger because we are seeing these hurricane-force winds combined with those very dry conditions that at was talking about. and that's what caused this fire danger in much of the west starting half of the southern central plains. in fact, about 10 million people in the plains were under red fire warnings. and what that resulted in was a number of roads being closed, some evacuation orders, thousands without power, and even to firefighters that were injured in oklahoma. in particular, there were different fires spreading across six different counties, and that's the area we're two of the firefighters were taken to the hospital because of burn injuries. we were also told that they brought in air resources and so

they were able to lift some of those events orders early this morning and late last night. we were told that no homes have been destroyed as of now, of course, firefighters continue to work around the clock and of course, we mentioned in colorado those power outages and road closures, officials telling people to remain indoors and to report any fires because of any of them do start. we are told it's going to be very difficult to contain them. >> fred, indeed are right. camila bernal, keep us posted elisa rafah. thank you so much as well >> all right. straight ahead. donald trump's campaign takes in a huge fundraising haul, but isn't enough to bridge the financial gap with president biden's campaign more on this after the break this suis, but kaitlan collins, week nights at nine >> well done viv you've got the presence, the balloons, and the raptor cake now how about something to put a smile on your face has been dental

>> republican national committee leaders are praising donors after a huge fundraising haul last night, the private event headlined by former president donald trump and former first lady melania trump, brought home more than 50 million to the rnc's campaign coffers, while a large portion of that cash will go to support trump for president, are in si, leaders say it will also be used in major efforts to scrutinize a state run elections cnn's steve contorno, joining us live with more on all this dv. so this all shows some of the gop's biggest donors are rallying around the presumptive actually not presumptive, but he is the number one, right. i mean, how how is the former president reacting? >> fred? it's a staggering sum of cash, $50 million. it's going to go a long way toward helping the former president's campaign make up some of that fundraising lag that they've had with president biden's

campaign and the democratic national committee, there was about $100 gap between the? biden campaign, the dnc and the trump campaign and the rnc going into this month, that fund raise is going to help them quite a bit. so obviously they are very encouraged by the outcome of last night. i do want to caveat that we are relying on the trump campaign and the rnc for those figures won't be able to verify the numbers until they are reported in federal election reports. however, they happen up putting out statements, talking about how this will give them the funds to carry them through this election cycle. and donald trump on social media yesterday saying, quote, it's the biggest night in fundraising of all time. he went on to compare his fundraising haul to the amount of money one that president biden brought in in his recent star-studded fundraiser with president's biden and click and excuse me, clinton and obama. >> and >> then today, earlier today for rnc chairman, recently installed by trump wildly, was

talking about how the rnc could potentially use this money listen to what he had to say >> we are going to spend every single dollar that we raise on two key critical core missions for the rnc, which are getting out the vote and protecting the ballot. we've got to make sure that we have the rules of the road in place in every state to ensure a fair election. so we are working with state legislatures were working with boards of elections, were working with secretaries of state to make sure that we get the rules of the road right >> now, fred, one other thing that money could go towards is trump's legal bills, obviously that has eaten up a large chunk of his fundraising to date, and that is one of them. think one of the committees that has been underwriting trump's legal bills so far, is one of the committees that was listed as a recipient of those fundraising dollars. >> all right. as steve contorno. thanks so much. coming up we have new insight about last week's contentious
