down what to expect when trump's former fixer, michael cohen takes the stand tomorrow and pro-palestinian protests on us college campuses collide with commencement ceremony. we have what's some college students who had their high school graduations disrupted by the covid pandemic in 2020. and now this new unrest have to say that at all all right, we begin in gaza this morning. >> where israel is carrying out airstrikes and this morning, palestinians say they have no safe place to go. israel is striking targets in northern central and southern gaza, hitting areas they say contain militant infrastructure israeli forces dropped leaflets hours before the strikes began telling people to leave the civil defense in gaza says an estimated 10,000 bodies are trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings in gaza in the south. >> these really military says about 300,000 palestinians have evacuated rafah to what israel calls expanded human monetary and areas. but the president of the european council calls

those areas unsafe zones and unacceptable. meanwhile, trucks carrying aid meant for gaza are backed up at the rafah border crossing egypt is refusing to coordinate the shipments with israel. israel took control of the gaza side of the crossing earlier this week for more on. this, we have elliot, god can joining us now, elliott tells what is the latest on these operations going on across gaza dani, the strikes were seeing taking place in the north are effectively having to take place despite israel weeks, months ago saying that it was job done, destroying hamas in those places. >> what's happened is that israeli forces i have withdrawn and then hamas militants have returned. so that's what's been going up, going on in the north. and indeed we know that residents have jabalya and other places have been told to move to what israel says our humanitarian zones in rafah in the south. israel very pointedly noting that this is in its word, precise and limited operations. in other words, not the full blown ground operation that president biden has been warning against yet we seem with airstrikes on

rafah already over the weekend, 15 people killed according to local hospitals sources among them, four children. and of course, as you also noted in your introduction, israel has been calling for the evacuation of more than a dozen neighborhoods in rafah, advising people to move either to khan younis north of rafah or to al-mawasi, which is due west of khan younis, which is effectively a barren stretch of beach lacking in all basic infrastructure. so not particularly good options for those palestinians being told to move what you're also seeing is those living in other neighborhoods have rafah, haven't been told to evacuate yet. they are also taken the view that a look we may not have been told to evacuate just yet, but better to do it now because it's only a matter of time. and that way will at least be able to get to a relatively safer place before it fills up. and of course, as all of that is happening, as you noted, egypt is in control of the border area between rafah and egypt. egypt, egyptian official who's telling us that it is no longer coordinating with israel to get humanitarian aid trucks into

the gaza strip there because it cannot guarantee their safety. and that will remain the case. so i'm gonna israeli tanks remain on the ground and as a result of that, we understand from border crossing, all authorities in the hamas-run enclave that not a single age truck has gone in through rough are the main conduit for aid for the past six days or so, israel has been getting some aid in through kerem shalom to the south its border with the gaza strip, some 200,000 liters of fuel and also flower as well. but there wasn't enough aid getting in before this current situation. and now that aid isn't getting seeing through the rafah crossing either. the situation is becoming even more dire. danny, amara and elliott, the hostage negotiations, obviously at an impasse, right now. and as a result, you have these protests across israel happening. they're angry about the status of this negotiations. and of course, also so at prime minister netanyahu, tell us more they are indeed that these, these talks are at an

impasse delegation. israel's delegation has come back from cairo, so they are on pause for now. and as a result of that, we are seeing these protests growing. they're happening, week in, week out and they had added poignancy this week as it comes on the eve of memorial day israel, yom hazikaron the people protesting calling not just for, of course, for the living hostages to be brought back to israel, but the dead bodies as well, so that they can receive a dignified burial. these protests, mainly designed to put pressure on the netanyahu government to do a deal with hamas, but also now calls for fresh elections. actions and for prime minister netanyahu to resign as well. we heard from president biden, of course, over the weekend at a fundraiser in just outside seattle, telling people there that if hamas agreed to a hostage deal, but there would be a ceasefire tomorrow. >> amara grad elliott got can thank you so much for your reporting. let's bring in david sanger now a cnn political well and national security analyst. he's also the author of new cold war's,

china's rise, russia's invasion, and america struggled to defend the west. david, it's always good to see you. i just want to get your take on what's unfolding right now in gaza as we're seeing these stepped-up military operations all around gaza also in the southern part, in rafah are we seeing this rough offensive? actually happening just in sector by sector as opposed to a full-scale invasion all at once. >> well, amara, happy, happy. mother's day. thanks for having me on yes. >> i think that's what's happening with the israelis have decided that this is better to do in stages you saw the beginnings of it last week. you're seeing the next part of the operation now. >> but even if it is unfolding slowly, what's happening here essentially is exactly what the biden administration had feared, which is that once you start dropping large-scale

ordinance and you see from those pictures that's what's happening. you're going to jump up the casualty count in an area that at the israelis had told the palestinians to go to in the south. and now we're telling them to leave. we think about 300,000 people have left the area in the past two days. but there was an estimate pretty reliable estimates from the un that the whole rafah general area had more than 1 million people and now that leaves a lot of people who have been displaced from the north and who may now be struck again in the south. >> and so many people there, the palestinian saying there's just no safe place to go the area. the idf spokesperson on saturday, i tweeted out or are posted on x, i should say. said that people in rafah and the neighboring camp should move northwest to, as you see it there on the map today expanded humanitarian area of al mawasi

is it truly an expanded humanitarian area? >> david expanded in that presumably be israeli saying that will not be pete bombed. but as early as january the biden administration was asking me is rarely as if they were going to go into rafah to provide them with a detailed plan of how they plan to go take care of the refugees and my understanding that plan has still not really been put together. there are some tense there, there have been some things set up but as you just heard in the earlier report from elliot, you're also seeing a cutoff of fuel and other aid coming in through the gates that are closest to rafah. so it's not clear once they get to that expanded area, that there's going to be very much food or fuel around to go take care of them. >> and this is really been at

the core of the argument between president biden and prime minister netanyahu, which is to say that the president biden has been unconvinced that there is a serious plan for how you take care of the palestinians, much less a serious plan for how you would govern gaza, even if they were successful at their goal which of course is to wipe out hamas and the us supports that goal. >> just not in this way. >> yeah, i guess the other question is, what will a netanyahu's next move b and then biden's response, will he moved withhold more weapons, but we're going to have to leave the conversation there davidson hanger. good to have you this morning. thanks. >> great president biden, former president donald trump are taking a break today after a busy day on the campaign trail biden wu, donors at a private fundraiser in seattle. >> he called his predecessor, unhinged, saying something snapped and trump after he lost the 2020 election well. today the president is back on the east coast and we'll have a live report with cnn's kevin

lip tech from delaware just ahead at seven. >> all right. meanwhile, trump stopped in a wild would and south new jersey, which is his third campaign rally since the start of his criminal trial in new york, a month ago, he's also pushing back on reports that former rival, nikki haley could be his vp choice. >> he denied the reports on truth, social. now with limited days off from court, a campaign stop and historically blue state may seem like an odd choice for trump. but cnn's alayna treene explains why his campaign may have chosen that spot former president donald trump traded the courtroom for the jersey shore this weekend where he delivered a speech 2000 of rally goers in wild would new jersey and look, amron, danny, new jersey isn't exactly a critical battleground state at something his advisers acknowledged me and donald trump lost new jersey to joe biden in 2020 by roughly 16 points. however donald trump on saturday claimed that he thinks he could be competitive in this

state in november and said, i think we can win it. and so that's something i think we're going to continue to hear. the former president claim in the weeks ahead now, i also just want to bring your attention to what i found really interesting was his comments on the israel hamas swore in the middle east, trump made it clear in some of his most explicit language, yet that he supports their military presence in gaza. take a listen to how he put that i support israel's right to win its war on terror. i don't know if that's good or bad politically. i don't care no. >> amron danny, donald trump also spoke more generally about his trials and even at one point spoke specifically about his hush money case in new york and baselessly claimed that president joe biden and democrats are behind that indictment. but luck, he did not go anywhere near violating the gag order, something i think people were wondering if he would maybe be tempted to do after that explosive testimony

from stormy daniel's last week. and of course, ahead of michael cohen's testimony testimony on monday, he did not do that. and so i guess we'll wait and see how he responds in court next week alayna treene, cnn wild when new jersey i thank you very much. >> all right. coming up a major showdown is brewing in a new york courtroom tomorrow. former president trump is set to come face-to-face with his former fixer, michael cohen, in the criminal hush money trial our legal analyst checks in next with what to expect when cohen takes the stand. >> also, a new faa re-authorization bill aiming to keep the tarmac and sky safer, could pass the house this week. what it means for passengers let's call it like it is after laying an egg in front of their home team crowd, the boston celtics respond on the road to a rocking crowd in cleveland oscar be was at the absolute peak of his celebrity in olympic heroes, shocking her

>> if everything goes right for the prosecution what is the best-case scenario for michael cohen's testimony? danny, good morning to you listen, are great question. here's the answer. i think everyone's waiting for the cross-examinati on of michael cohen, right? i think that we certainly know what he's going to say that is michael cohen. think about it this way to date, all be witnesses staff, the prosecution had right around this issue of conspiracy and cover up. that's the theory. and michael cohen will bring it home. and so if all goes right, that theory that there was a conspiracy and cover up with respect to what? with respect to this whole catch and kill scheme, not in and of itself illegal, but with regard sealing it and covering it up by invoices that will phony by other types of business records like ledgers, like checks that were meant to reimburse, not for purposes of retainer fees or anything legally, services

that were provided, but as a bonus and of course is repayment of michael cohen's covering this up to boost election prospects of donald trump and so if everyone else puts donald trump in the room, certainly michael cohen puts donald trump at the table because he could speak to the issues of how this all came about, what the grand scheme was all about, how allen weisselberg, who serving time in prison, who was the chief financial officer of the trump org organization was involved. it's not testifying by the way. so that is going to be the prosecution's wish that he just brings it home. he is in michael cohen, who establish this conspiracy, its cover up, and two, otherwise established trump's guilt. that's the best-case scenario. but again, danny, everyone's waiting for the cross examination of michael cohen well, let's talk about the joy because i know you've been talking about this for several weeks now. the main problem that michael cohen faces is this big question of credibility. he has been convicted of perjury, which he says he did for the former president. but i guess especially after seeing the

cross-examination of stormy daniels last week does the defense do you think need to beat up michael cohen on this credibility issue or just leave it at you can't trust anything. this guy says and walk away so i think there's a couple of imperatives, right? >> there's what the right thing to do legally to establish your case from a defense perspective. and then there's what their boss title trump wants to see. you mentioned stormy daniels. what was the essence of the cross-examination on the second day of stormy dans, you got this everything out the first day that you want to argue when you're closing, that she hates the president, couldn't be she couldn't be trusted, and she knows nothing about the records, but trump says, get in there, you merely eight her and i think that in answer to your question is, what we'll see as it relates to michael cohen. trump wants him to be really annihilated. and so we're going to hear about your perjure. is that right, sir? nothing that comes out of your mouth. we can trust it. in fact, you've made a living off of, a savaging the president.

you were wearing a shirt that had him in jail, right? that was on your podcast. we're going to hear hello about that you wanted to go to the white house. he wouldn't take it in white house. so all of those things are gonna happen. that issue with me, danny's whether that matters. why do i say that? because so many of the other witnesses already said what michael cohen is going to say, as i noted the other witnesses in tandem have trump involved in this whole entire hi, your deal to really conceal and cover up, et cetera, they just again, put them in the room. they just don't put them at the table. and that's what michael cohen's going to do by saying we have these face-to-face meetings. there was this oval office meeting where we talked about the whole reimbursement that's where we said how we would do the deal so that no one would know, but yes, what everyone found out and the issue now is going to be what, if any, involvement trump had. i think other witnesses would otherwise suggests he had a lot of involvement, but michael cohen will tell everybody about the specific nature of that involvement and that's the

open question. >> let's think june just before we go, i'm curious your perspective because i think that we actually saw a lot of restraint when it came to the former president and truth socialising everything after the stormy daniels week. just quickly. do you think this actually may be the hardest week for former president trump to not violate the gag order i think every day is a hard de danny and answer to a question in terms of violating the gag order, but i do think that he's gotten it on the control. i think the judge has said, listen, i'll find you for now. i don't want to put you in jail, but if i have to, i will i think there's been contingency plans underway with respect to whether that happens hopefully the president will continue to message other things. it's the biden prosecution. biden not involve the da of manhattan is doing this off of political reasons, attacking the judges corrupt if he sticks to that, which is permissible, it'll be okay. he starts attacking witnesses, then it becomes problematic and of course we know there is no

love loss as it relates to michael cohen. so yes, it'll be very difficult for the president. >> joe jackson, president joey jackson. thank you so much. aso is really appreciate it always, the house vote on the critical faa bill is this week coming up how this legislation could increase passenger safety and help you get a refund if your flight is delayed storing the debate over transgender athletes that i believe thank you to sacrifice skiing trans in order to swim, we can't neglect fairness and popes to be inclusive. >> the whole story with anderson cooper tonight at eight on make your first move with battery power. >> made by steel right now save

past the senate passed the $105,000,000,000 bill last week and also approved a one-week stopgap extension for the faa, allowing time for the house to clear the longer term package this upcoming week, cnn's meloni's a nonna, has more good morning, danny and amara. >> so converse is on track to pass a key federal aviation build this week, but they haven't quite landed the plane yet after being stalled in the senate for weeks, the bill finally did pass on thursday in a big bipartisan vote. and now it will head to the house where e is expected to path this week. but one of the main sticking points that had really been holding things up was this provision to add more flight slots to ronald reagan national airport here in washington, dc he see that was something that lawmakers from dc, virginia and maryland had really pushed back on warning that it could overwhelm an already overwhelmed system and warning, it could lead to even more flight delays and cancelations.

so they had tried to strip that language out and ultimately they were not successful. now, other than that provision, most of the other provisions in the bill are non-controversial and really designed to improve safety. i want to reduce some of the provisions in the bill. this bill would increase the number of air traffic controllers provide more safety inspectors at manufacturing facilities, and require the faa to use new technology designed to prevent collisions between planes teams, on runways. now the initial deadline to get this done was on may 10th, but the senate also did pass on thursday, a one-week extension to give the house more time to act. so now they have this until this upcoming friday, which is may 17, to get this done. and again, we are expecting that to happen. danny and amara? no right meloni's a noda. thank you. joining me now is cnn safety analyst and former safety inspector for the faa, david sue see david. good morning. thanks so much for being with us. >> so let's let's talk about just different parts of the this bipartisan bill at first, the increasing the number of

the air traffic controllers. >> it's the goal is to close the gap of 3,000 vacancies and we've heard so much about these shortages in the fatigue that the traffic controllers have been facing as you've been watching, a lot of near collisions are close calls on the runways happen a lot, but more than more than we want to see how quickly david do you think we'll see some of these shortages alleviated take quite some time. >> i mean, it's selecting to get 3,000 people. they're going to have to go through about 9,000 candidates. the washout rate for air traffic controllers is about 30% or excuse me, more like 60% so it's not easy to find that many people to fill those positions okay. >> and what about this technology to prevent collisions? there's additional runway technology that will be installed by the faa. what can you tell us about this technology and how it helps prevent collisions with the idea is that it's more

autonomous, that it's going to watch these things automatically, which is long overdue, that should have been done a long time ago, but it has to get passed by congress to get aid for because it's not cheap. >> it's something that we talked about the longtime putting in place even the trains if we've talked about the positive train control you, congress issues that band-aid to do to put these controls on, to make sure that trains don't crash around a corner. it's similar to that. we you say, let's put it in place. but are you willing to fund it? are you willing to actually put it in place and that's really mean means a lot. the fact that this bill adds the funding that's necessary to put that into place. so very excited that they passed it. >> yeah. >> whatever that needs to be done to increase safety and more eyes on what happens on the runway i remember back in february, listening to the faa administrator, michael whitaker testified to congress and he talked about the current system, not working because you said it's not delivering safe aircraft and he was referring

to the oversight excuse me, the way that employees of aircraft manufacturers were inspecting there on planes, do you expect that oversight to be overhauled or changed where you don't have let's say boeing employees inspecting their own planes well, there's still going to continue that, but you have to clarify this a little bit because what we're asking them to do is to have more oversight over those people who do work in the in the in the facilities. >> so for example, the organizational dar is someone who is given the authority to say this is what we have have to do in the inspection. what do we have to look at? do we have double oversight? do we have the required inspection items looked at? that's what these people on are going to be looking at. they're not going to be out there looking at every single part of every single airplane that's not with intent is the intent is to have better oversight over those people who determine what is safe and what is not, which had

been which again is long overdue, that should have been done quite awhile ago probably after the max eight accidents. that's when this should have been put in place. let's get the money together to put the people in place to do it. that's what i'm excited about now they actually have the the authority to go ahead and hire the people that need to be on site and looking at those things that were not looked at before. >> and lastly, before we let you go, this sticking point that meloni's a note i mentioned about provision that would allow i think an additional ten flights a day at reagan national airport and and it seems like there was a lot of disagreement between lawmakers, between airlines in some of the lawmakers saying that looking at rigueur national is already too busy. it's too restricted to add more flights. what are your thoughts on that? >> well, reagan national what we have to understand is that they've been under restriction ever since nine, 11, so they put a lot of restrictions on that airport. so i think that the airport is capable of

handling those extra flights. i'm not sure really what the pushback is here because they have enough capacity to handle it. there. just i think it's more of a political reason for the fact that these congress the congress does not want to be responsible for adding stress to a system that's already there. so it's kind of strange to me that that's even in this bill, but i don't see any problem with having it in there. i'm not sure what the pushes yet must be. a political push more than a technical push. right. got it. >> well, david x2i really appreciate your time on this. >> thanks so much good to see you all right. >> still to come the northern lights, look at that lit up the sky for a second. de on saturday, turning this guy brilliant shades of pink, purple, and green. of course, i'd never see it, but we'll take a look. where are these magnificent colors were visible right now from tried and true
