12:02 am
>> six month mark, the israeli military says it has withdrawn ground forces from the southern city of khan yunis. so they can recuperate and prepare for future operations. the idf says it's far from from the city effectively marks the end of its ground operation in gaza in its current form. but the defense minister says troops will return for follow-up missions >> a god your team the troops pulled out to prepare for their future missions. we saw examples of such missions in the operations at shifa hospital and also for their future mission in the rafah region all this coming as a new round of negotiations are underway between israel and hamas, egyptian state media is reporting >> significant progress in talks in cairo over a gaza
12:03 am
ceasefire and hostage release deal and cnn's nada bashir is following developments. she joins me now, live from life and and so nauta, what more you learning about the withdrawal of israeli troops from khan yunis? and of course, the destruction left behind >> well, there has been immense destruction across khan yunis. we've seen video emerging now showing residents returning to their homes. many of them returning now after months of being unable hello to return to khan yunis after israeli ground troops they did the region that southern city. of course, we have seen continued airstrikes across khan as well, as well as other surrounding areas in southern gaza. we heard a little earlier from one resident who was returning to khan yunis for the first time describing the destruction that his upon his return >> it as a shock, a shock. >> what happened was not small really coming on the way in the car. i saw things. the
12:04 am
destruction is unbearable now while israeli troops all withdrawing from khan yunis, we have heard from the israeli military's statement, they are maintaining what has been described as a >> significant troop presence. in other parts of gaza. that this is a conclusion to what they've described as their mission in khan yunis. but of course that this will not be an end to the hochul ground operation of the israeli military. and in fact, we have heard from the defense minister saying that there will be further operations that troops have been withdrawn in order to recuperate and prepare for further operations as we have seen in the past. now typically and israeli regrade would have a few thousand troops within. it's unclear how many many troops are withdrawing at this current point in time, or how many trips remained on the ground in gaza, israeli media reported on sunday that there will be still a presence around the netzarim crossing or corridor, a dividing line established by the israeli military, essentially splitting gaza in two. but of course
12:05 am
again, the details are how many shoots will remain is unclear. of course, important to underscore that this is, of course happening as ceasefire negotiations continue. we did here over the weekend from egyptian state media saying there had been significant progress in those talks. and of course, one of the key demands from hamas has long been a dream pullback of israeli troops in gaza. now it's unclear whether this drawback was before drove cheers from khan yunis is linked to those ongoing discussions and negotiations. but certainly a significant development it remains to be seen, of course, what comes next for the israeli military? we have continued to hear those warnings of a ground operation in the southern city of rafah for some 1.5 million people are currently displaced. but as we know, there has me mounting pressure on the israeli military to protect civilian lives in the south, not least from one of the key allies, the united states and we will continue to follow this very closely. nada bashir joining us live from london.
12:06 am
many thanks for that report and us president joe biden is making on taking a tougher stand warning prime minister benjamin netanyahu that he needs to do more to address the growing humanitarian crisis it's in gaza or face consequences. that warning came last week during a phone call. cnn's priscilla alvarez has more about what was said between the two leaders cnn is learning new details about appointed call between president biden and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. last week, that call coming at a pivotal moment, only days after world central kitchen employees were killed in an israeli attack in gaza. now according to sources, president biden place additional pressure on israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu to change his policies in his war against hamas. that included primarily getting more humanitarian aid into gaza by opening a land crossing, a port and also ramping up supplies. now, according to a source, so he's really prime minister benjamin netanyahu agreed to that,
12:07 am
saying that there would be more done. but the president went a step further saying that it needs to be done sun and indeed, hours after the call, these really security cabinet approved of the measures and the white house has so far welcome the moves and the changes that they've seen thus far, acknowledging that there has been frustration and that more needs to be done. but what is clear is that the us is steadfastly supporting israel and its right to defend itself. it defend itself difference now is that they are more willing willing to change their policy if israel doesn't change, what it's doing, of course, what that would be still remains an open question, as well as what metrics the us is using to determine if israel is making the necessary changes priscilla alvarez cnn washington >> and >> israeli official says the reopening of the erez crossing for humanitarian aid has been delayed. it was set to open on sunday, but officials say they're still making logistical preparations to ensure the checkpoint can accommodate the truckloads of aid, despite the urgent need
12:08 am
and us pressure, the israeli military agency in charge of aid deliveries says, it will announce the crossing's opening, quote, once a date is set the world food programme's executive director cindy mccain says a massive amount of much-needed food food is just waiting to get into gaza. but she says it's important that the right kind of foods getting in especially for children who are in desperate need of nutrients. here's what mccain told cnn on sunday there'll be a p stands ready, we have right now amassed outside on the border food for 1.1 million >> people for three months. we just need to get it in. that's why these crossings are so important and more crossings are needed as you know? >> a group of american doctors who spent more than a week working in northern gaza. so hospital conditions, they are
12:09 am
miserable and unimaginable. >> the >> video you're about to see is graphic and maybe hard to watch. the doctors volunteered most of their time at the kamal adwan hospital. the scene of a controversial idf raid late last year were little to no aid is getting through. they say patients like this one are often lying on the floors in their blood because there are not enough bids. mass casualties are arriving daily, sometimes ten to 20 at a time. and the facility is running on solar power since there's no fuel, for electricity and cnn has gathered a list of vetted organizations that are on the ground responding. you can find details on how you can help on our website at cnn.com it's the final countdown to these solar eclipse today is the de, millions of people in the mexico and canada have been
12:10 am
waiting and even traveling four. however, the forecast for parts of the eclipse's path of totality could thwart the once in a lifetime experience for many, cnn's kristin fisher, reports from indianapolis where many eclipse chasers are rerouting two in hopes of getting a better view of the cosmic extravaganza indianapolis has always been one of those key major cities along the path of totality for this eclipse. but over the last few days, it has really taken on even more significance because so many eclipse chasers have seen the forecast down in texas. and in southern parts of arkansas and said, hey we don't think we're gonna get to see the eclipse if we stay here. and so they are all coming to indianapolis, some going to other places like vermont and maine, places where they're supposed to be picture perfect blue skies. but here this is really a central part of america. and now all these
12:11 am
folks are coming into town. originally, indianapolis was expecting about 100,000 people to come here for the eclipse. now they're expecting even more in many of those people, about 40,000 of them are going to be spending those precious few minutes of totality at the indianapolis motor speedway and some of the things that make this eclipse so unique and different from the one in 2017, is that the moments of totality or about double the length? >> the maximum >> amount for this eclipse is going to be a little over four minutes compared to about two-and-a-half minutes back in 2017. and the other thing that makes this eclipse so cool is the fact that back in 2017, that eclipse was time to a period of pretty subdued solar activity. but this one is timed almost perfectly to coincide with the period of peak solar activity. so when the moon fully crosses in front of the sun, you should be able to see some really cool activity. those solar flares and coronal
12:12 am
mass ejections coming off the sun surface. so now it really just all comes down to the weather and everyone here hoping that the rain and the clouds clear just in time for totality, which is set for 3:06 p.m. eastern time on monday in indianapolis kristin fisher, cnn about 99% of americans are expected to get a glimpse of at least a partial eclipse, but some are worried they may not get to see much with weather reports predicting clouds and severe storms and parts of the country we'd all just elisa raffa as the latest forecast >> we're watching those clouds so closely on the path of totality. it looks like we have a storm system though developing on the southern end of the path where a severe risk is growing for damaging winds, large hail, even isolated tornadoes from texas into oklahoma, arkansas, and louisiana. the good news is though it looks like the storms do blow up after the eclipse.
12:13 am
we've got a couple of showers kinda right as the eclipse is starting that partial eclipse. and then they blow up right after that peak, probably after three or four clocks, you might have a one to two hour window to seek shelter if you're in a place like dallas outside, two watch the eclipse, though, it will come with cloud cover, mostly cloudy skies in dallas, temperatures in the 70s, one is your total solar eclipse time. then it ends at three and those storms will fire up shortly after it's all part of the system that kind of stalls right near that path of totality bringing you some showers for middle tennessee and then over towards the carolinas. we do have some clouds that will come with it from texas into louisiana on the southern end of the path, some clearing across the ohio valley, and even some clearing and new england to also looks like a pretty good spot to catch the total solar eclipse for looking at some places like little rock where we'll have some mostly cloudy skies a little bit close to that system. you're totalities at
12:14 am
1:51 place. i'd rochester also finding some mostly cloudy skies with your peak at 3:20. now, what's so cool about this too, is we will find temperatures taking a dip while you have the peak totality of that shadow because it's cutting off the energy from the sun. so those temperatures are going to briefly calm down. >> and we'll pop back >> up once the shadow moves away from the sun and we get those temperatures to rebound. so 79, we'll have to watch out for closely. so not only will you experienced the total darkness and totality, you'll experience that temperature drop, the relative humidity increases as the temperatures dip closer to that dewpoint, the winds could decrease two, and so could your cloud cover join us later today for the total solar eclipse as it travels from mexico across america and into canada. experience, the total eclipse from numerous locations along with plenty of science and excitement along the way. a special coverage starts at 12:00 p.m. eastern still to

12:26 am
discussing the us and chinese economies and areas of concern for both parties cnn's beijing bureau chief steven jiang joins me now with a so steven, what else did secretary yellen have to say at a news conference and what all did she achieve on this? it's diplomatic trip >> yeah. rose mery, as we discussed during the last hour, she really tried to end her trip on a positive note by saying the constructive role, her conversations and her trips have have played in stabilizing this relationship between the us and china. also of course highlighting the initiatives both sides of launched on topics ranging from anti money-laundering. two, according cool, more balanced growth in the domestic and global economies. that's a platform presumably they can discuss washington is a concern about, as you mentioned, china's industrial overcapacity, which is a key item on her agenda. now, she really emphasized how serious the biden administration has
12:27 am
taken with this issue in terms of cheaply made chinese goods and products, especially green type products, have been flooding the global markets, depressing prices and negatively impacting the us and other economies, even referring back act at a time when china first joined the world trade organization in 2001, saying a similar situation really happened then, and really displacing a lot of american workers. and she said the american administration that biden obstruction is simply not going to let that happen again, they just find the situation unacceptable. but of course mr. chinese have been pushing back very strongly and seeing all of this is a politicized accusation and aim that smearing china now they are of course, the chinese are increasingly angry with the americans, increasingly stringent export controls of key, a key technologies targeting china with their leader xi jinping telling president biden, two in there most recent phone calls that day find that practice that policy, and accept an
12:28 am
acceptable and they're not going to sit idly by. so the tension is very much remain here and also echoing president biden, of course, secretary yellen also raised the issue of warning china not to provide russia with any material support in their war effort in ukraine but of course, as we speak, the russian foreign minister lavrov has now arrived in beijing to talk with the chinese counterparts and a strengthening. their so called no limit partnership and potentially paving the way for another putin visit so all of this of course, is a reflection of the strategic assessment of both sides about themselves and about the other's intentions. it seems the chinese have made this choice of aligning themselves closely with the russians because of their shared grievances against us. us dominated the order, and their desire of reshaping that. and that is unlikely to change even with these visits and conversations, janet yellen has been emphasizing especially in a us election year rose mery steven jiang in beijing monday, thanks for joining. appreciate
