hello, and welcome to have you as joining us here in the united states are round well the am streaming us on cnn max. >> i'm mostly church just ahead as israel launches new attacks across gaza, us officials repeat their warnings the stay out of a city that's become the last refuge for more than 1 million palestinians. donald trump's former fixer, michael cohen, is set to take the stand. and then the former president's high-stakes criminal hush money trial. >> we will break down what cohen's expected to say and why his testimony could be critical. >> and more than two years into russia's unprovoked war on ukraine, vladimir putin is replacing his longtime defense minister with an economist who has no military experience for

my plan this is cnn nice with rosemarie to have you with us. >> we'll, as israel continues to plan an expansion of its military operations in rafah, the palestinian death toll from the war has passed 35,000. that is according to gaza's ministry of health on sunday, there is large explosion in gaza as the health ministry says, at least 63 people were killed over the weekend meanwhile, us officials are warning that a full israeli invasion of rafah could lead to matter civilian deaths. the us secretary of state is, it could leave a vacuum filled by chaos. so far more than 300,000 people have evacuated from rafah they say they have no safe options let them have a rule. we are tired and lost. we don't know

where to go and a small area we are lost. no one is standing with us, not netanyahu nor muslims are saudi arabia nor any arab country this is the destruction we are working as workers. i left with a shirt and a torn undershirt. i'm working as a worker for ten shekels. we are suffering from the high prices from one side and the war from the other side. we are displaced, i swear since five days, i only had one meal israel says it has opened a new crossing to allow humanitarian aid into the enclave in coordination with the united states. >> they western erez crossing is in northern gaza. the un says, no aid has come through. some hold on gaza, over the past several days. >> and cnn's paula hancocks has more on the aid situation and the evacuations from a rafah 300,000 palestinians are believed to have evacuated rafah so-far these figures were getting not just from the un on the ground, but also the

israeli military. and this is as the idf is continuing its limited operations at this points in eastern rafah, but they are calling for civilians to evacuate. many of them were hearing from unrwa for example, the un group on the ground are literally moving anywhere. they possibly can. they're being told there's an area along the coast, al-muwasi witches considered according to the israeli military, a humanitarian safer zone. but according to the un, it is an inhumane displacement pointing out that this area, that they are being told to move towards is simply not suitable for the sheer number of people and the humanitarian support simply isn't there at this point. now, the humanitarian support and the aid that is getting into these areas of a rafah or and southern gaza had been severely hampered over recent

days since this operation began. we know that the israeli military is in control of the rafah crossing. this was a key crossings to get the humanitarian aid trucks in. and we understand that egyptian officials at this point or not coordinating with israel to get more trucks. and because they are citing security concerns, it's not just managing to drive a humanitarian aid truck through into the gaza strip. you are driving into a war zone and it is extremely difficult to then be able to safely distribute the aid once inside. now we understand according to the israeli military, that they have opened another crossing there. they say in the north of gaza, they're calling it the western erez crossing. but at this point, the critical concentration of displaced is in the southern area, is in the rafah area. and to un teams on the ground, they are rapidly running out of aid to be able to help those people. >> now when it comes to the

fighting as well, we are hearing from the israeli military that it's not just in rafah that they are engaging hamas. >> they are also fighting in central gaza. they are fighting in northern gaza. jabalya refugee camp for example. the israeli military say that they have issued evacuation orders there as well as they are fighting hamas. they say they have intelligence that hamas has try to regroup and try to reassemble in this particular area. and this is an area that the israeli military said that they had cleared and that was controlled by them and had been operated in many, many months ago. so this this really is an indication of how difficult it is for hamas to be totally destroyed as the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has insisted, his military will do paula hancocks, cnn, abu dhabi us national security adviser,

jake sullivan spoke with his israeli counterpart and read those growing concerns about israel's military offensive in refer the white house he discussed how to quote, ensure the defeat of hamas without an expanded invasion of the city cnn's kevin lib tech has more american officials are continuing to warn strongly against a ground invasion of rafah, really channeling president biden's view that american weapons should not be used in an operation that they view as ill-advised and very, very bloody. >> and those concerns were raised in a phone call on sunday between president biden's national security adviser, jake sullivan, and his counterpart in israel, the white house says that sullivan raised those concerns discuss alternatives to a ground invasion of rafah, israeli national security adviser said that those concerns were being taken into account. but at the end of the day, these concerns

or nothing new president biden has been raising them with the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu on phone calls dating back to february. and there are no signs that netanyahu is necessarily taking those views into account. he has said that a ground invasion of rafah is necessary to completely eliminate hamas that view is completely at odds with what we heard from american officials officials on sunday, including the secretary of state, antony blinken, who said that a ground invasion of rafah could launch a hamas insurgency listen to more for a little bit of what he said. >> they will be left holding the bag on an enduring insurgency, because a lot of armed hamas will be left, no matter what they do in rafah or if they, if they leave and get out of gaza as we believe they need to do then you're going to have a vacuum and vacuum that's likely to be filled by chaos, by anarchy, and ultimately by hamas again we have the same objective as israel. we want to make sure that hamas cannot govern gaza. again, we want to make sure

it's demilitarized. we want to make sure that israel gets its leaders. that's what we're determined. we have a different way and we think a more effective, durable way of getting that done will remain in conversation with israel about exactly that. >> now blinken also said that the us believes israel has killed more civilians than hamas members over the course of this war. he also said that the us hasn't seen a plan from israel for security and governance and gaza once this war ends, it's a really taken all together. these are some of the strongest words that we've seen from the biden minutes directed toward israel since the start of this conflict. and it really does go to show that this relationship and this war are very much reaching an inflection can point. kevin live tax, cnn, traveling with the president at rehoboth beach, delaware alon pinkas is former israeli consul general in new york. >> he joins me now ally from tel aviv, israel, appreciate you being with us good morning,

rosemary. >> good to be with you. >> so israel appears to be preparing to expand its military operations into rafah, even as us officials warn that a full invasion could lead to massive civilian in casualties. and as it continues to pause, sending bombs to israel. so what do you expect benjamin netanyahu's next move will be well he's. he's defied everything we thought he would do. his defied reason. he's defined the us. he's defied the reality on the ground. the military reality on the ground and most importantly rosemary, he's defied the very idea of commiting, op are drafting an idea for post-war gaza to right now, if he, if he intends to push forward with this offensive in rafah, which remains to be seen by the way, because the scale and the scope of such an operation varies and, you know, a ground invasion may not happened and

may not happen. and we may yet see this thing burning until found in two, three days. but if he does go on if he if he serious about his on attainable goal of eradicating hamas and israel needs to essentially occupy the gaza strip indefinitely. and i don't see that happening necessarily so why is it that prime minister netanyahu appears to be willing to alienate his country's biggest ally by possibly invading rafah despite calls from the us not to do so. >> and despite advice on how to defeat hamas without an expanded invasion of rafah, well, in one word, rosemary politics and towards personal politics in three words, cindy personal politics and combine, combine these three options and you understand his modus operandi. >> he has a vested interest in prolonging and lengthening the

war. >> he knows that if the war ends now, which by the way, rosemary, any, any hostage deal that is accompanied by a a ceasefire, a six-week ceasefire, and eight weeks ceasefire, four weeks ceasefire would de facto end the war. >> and if the war ends now that he cannot claim victory, he cannot claim that hamas was eradicated or that it was militarily politically, most importantly, politically toppled. i go back to the segment that you showed from secretary blinken. he's exactly right. if israel stays, there's chaos. >> it's israel leaves without a post-war plan. it's chaos. now, mr. netanyahu, since more or less november, rosemary is deliberately seeking a confrontation with the west because he thinks that's good for him politically in terms of maintaining his coalition it's not exactly sparked smart

statesmanship, but politically he thinks it's beneficial so where do negotiations for a ceasefire and hostage release deal stand right now? and what happens to those hostages if the idf does go ahead with this planned in version of rafah tragically and i know it's hot, it's a horrible thing to even suggest on your show. >> nowhere. >> i cannot see negotiations proceedings, certainly not in a positive way. >> given an israeli offensive and laugh, even if it's less than a full invasion then there's the question of duration, even if the invasion or operation is limited in scope, it could still go on for a few weeks in which case i don't see any negotiations. and this goes to the something else how the two sides defined victory, israel defines victory as eradicating hamas hamas defines a win or victory by

merely standing on their feet and waving flag. even eight, waving a flag, even if it's the very last flags. so both sides. and again, this is tragic. both sides seem to have a disincentive to end this at this point because neither can get what it wants and that's the that's the tragedy because in-between are hundred and 30 hostages and hundreds of thousands, if not 1,000,000.5 upon the desolate palestinians them being shifted from one side to another without access to food, water, medicine. >> hello, i'm pingos. thank you so much for joining us and for sharing your perspective on this issue, pushing thank you, rosemary day 16 of donald trump's criminal hush money trial will kick off in the coming hours. trump's former attorney and fixer, michael cohen, is expected to take the stand and prosecutors say it's entirely possible they will

rest their case by the end of the week. cnn, zach cohen has more prosecutors in donald trump's hush money trial are expected to call a key witness to the stand on monday, the testimony of michael cohen, trump's onetime attorney and fixer could make or break the manhattan district attorney's case against the former president. he's the only one witness who will testify about trump's involvement in both the alleged decision to pay adult film actress stormy daniels $130,000 to keep her from going public about a past encounter with the former president ahead of the 2016 election. and the plan to reimburse cohen for advancing the money. now, tying trump to both the decision to pay daniels and the reimbursement is critical for prosecutors who are seeking to prove trump allegedly falsified business records to keep daniels quiet. now, the jurors have her already heard a lot about cohen from other witnesses who have testified over the last three weeks and most fit has been unflattering. trump's defense attorneys would like we try to further undercut cohen's credibility during what a shortage be a attends cross-examination prosecutors

meanwhile, have tried to lay the groundwork for cohen's testimony by introducing documents including emails and texts. they say backup, his version of events ultimately, the case could come down to whether or not the jury finds cohen's testimony credible, or if trump's attorneys are able to convince them otherwise zachary cohen, cnn, washington and earlier i spoke with criminal defense attorney and former new york prosecutor, been either via learner about the significance of michael cohen's turn as star witness while we heard so much about him through other witnesses who tend to corroborate what he is expected to say. >> we still also know from other witnesses that he does have credibility issues, but they key testimony that we're going to hear from michael cohen is about that crucial meeting in february of 2017? side of the white house inside of the oval office. well, michael cohen is expected to testify that he and donald trump had this conversation about the hush money that was paid to stormy daniels and how

he was supposed to be we paid for that hush money in order to conceal that testimony from ever coming until light that about stormy daniels herself while the prosecution views cohen as a star witness who can potentially link and alleged cover-up scheme back to trump. >> the defense paints him as a liar with the no credibility motivated by revenge, which narrative will likely when and which has the stronger evidence so the defense is going to go with that michael cohen is obsessed with donald trump has been obsessed with donald trump four years that he's constantly posting about donald trump talking in the media about donald trump and his soul fixated on donald trump that he has become delusional. and you heard some through the defense is opening statements, so that's how we know. that's where they're going with donald with michael cohen's testimony in terms of the prosecution to prosecution is going to allow michael cohen to be the person that he is and

then later argued that this type of person is the same person that donald trump need it. and trusted to fix his problems to try to harsh storm for me, daniel's to try to hush and conceal this from ever comic delight and end. the prosecution's going to tie michael cohen's testimony and all the corroborating evidence, including meetings, telephone, records that audio recording that we already heard earlier in the trial, as well as statements that were made previously in order to to find and tell this jury that you can find them credible. and as you can find donald trump guilty based on his testimony, but not just his testimony in total, or the testimony that they've heard. >> they rob the defense, of course, is going to try to poke holes through all of that and find reasonable doubt and we'll have my full interview with bernardo via luna next hour all right. still to come catastrophic flooding and afghanistan kills hundreds and wives out and tie villagers. a look at the destruction i made

afghanistan over the weekend, according to the world food programme the floods have destroyed entire villages, washing away homes, livestock, and access to clean drinking water and food. taliban officials and are calling on the international community for help. and cnn's anna coren joins me now, live from hong kong with more on there. so anna, what is the latest on afghanistan as deadly floods rosemary, the images that we're getting out of baghlan province in the north of afghanistan are extremely distressing and we need to warn our audience that what you're about to see me upset some viewers. look, these are videos that have been shared on a journalist group in afghanistan. and it shows the ferocious flash flooding that hit on friday. you can hear people screaming run away, run away. the next footage that we will show you the rescue

efforts. and these are children three, four children that have been plucked from the mud buried in the mud that they are shell-shocked and it is beyond stressing this little girl. >> she is telling the man the flood took everything and that her mother has been swept away. as i mentioned, this happened on friday we believe that men were at prayers at the mosque women and children were at home. so as far as the casualties go, it's women and children who are among the dead. it was unusually heavy rainfall across the north of the country. this is very mountainous areas obviously, baghlan, the worst hit, but there's also reports of flash flooding in her rotting go in taka and bad acts can as well, the taliban, as you say claims that more than 300 people have been killed, over 1,600 injured, thousands of homes,

destroyed these homes. they are they're mud brick homes that have been completely in golf. but there is a wide discrepancy rose marie between the taliban's numbers and those from humanitarian groups we just spoke to somebody from the world food programme who believes that the death toll will dramatically rise. there are areas that are inaccessible that are buried in mud the fear is that there are many, many bodies still so buried in the modern under the debris let's now have a listen to one father who lost 13 family members on have no food, no drinking water, no shelter, no blankets, nothing at all. the fluids have destroyed everything out of 42 houses, only two or three houses remained. the floods have destroyed the entire valley as far as ray, as i said, he lost 13 family members, including many children. the taliban says

it's mobilizing all available resources. it's also calling on the un and other humanitarian agencies let's to come to the assistance of these incredibly vulnerable now, destitute people and a car on. >> we thank you for your report. appreciate it wildfires are raging across western canada. officials say the first major fires of the season, how spread? good across roughly 10,000 hectares or new 25,000 acres thousands of people have been ordered to evacuate in alberta province, at least it's two fires are burning out of control and have grown significantly over the weekend. canadian officials have issued air quality warnings from british columbia to ontario they say the country faces another quote, catastrophic wildfire season. this year, fueled by warmer than normal temperatures still ahead, russia's president replaces his defense minister, the same man who was it's criticized

region after launching a surprise cross-border attack on friday ukraine's army chief says the situation on the northern front has quote significantly worsened, but he didn't comment on russia's claims which cnn cannot confirm independently. >> ukraine's president volodymyr zelenskyy says this is a new wave of counteroffensive actions by russia defensive battles are ongoing, fierce battles on a large part of our border area yes, i keep fisheries. >> there are villages that have actually turned from a gray zone into a combat zone. and the occupier is trying to gain a foothold in some of them, just or simply use some of them for further advancement. so personal daniel, our task is obviously we need to inflict as many losses as possible on the occupier personally will and it is very important that everyone who is directly there in the kharkiv region shows maximum efficiency now, i'm not in the armed forces in the security

forces in local authorities and communities says elisions you towards obs. do everything depends on what you are capable of in a war, whether you can withstand the attacks and hold your grounds so that everyone else can do the same ukrainian officials say thousands of residents were evacuated from the kharkiv region on sunday as russian forces pushed in, but some were reluctant to go good luck here in two years in hell, hell, two years. >> we invert hell you hear that explosions? >> well, it was exploiting next to our ears the house, the windows, the gallery or veranda, the glass is all shattered. we took out for bags of glass yesterday as you enter the house, the windows with the glass are deformed and we put sticks against them russian president vladimir putin has replaced his defense minister, sergei shoigu with a civilian

shoigu was criticized for his handling of the invasion he shouldn't have ukraine. most forcefully, by the wagner chief yevgeny prigozhin the kremlin's shoigu has now been appointed secretary of russia's security council. he will also oversee the country's military industrial complex. the new defense minister, andre balance soft previously served as first deputy prime minister. the kremlin spokesperson explained why putin made the change during a media call on it's sunday mentioned a few wouldn't him up pulley boy today on the battlefield, those who are more open for innovations, more open towards a quick implementation of the innovations when that is why it's natural depend on the current stage, the president has taken the decision pretty civilian to be in charge of the ministry of defense he also highlighted the country's rising military spending,

saying it's approaching levels last seen during the cold war joining us now is cnn's clare sebastian. >> she is live in london, so clear how significant is this announcement from putin that he is replacing his defense? i'm going to start with a civilian and what might that signal yeah, it is really significant. >> sergei shoigu had been in that job for 12 years, so long predating the war, the full-scale invasion of ukraine, it was in some ways expected he had been seen as vulnerable. obviously, russia is now more confident and ukraine than it was, say six months ago. but this is still a war that is now in its third year, whereas the expectation at the beginning was that it would be over in a few weeks has failings also, the stated rate he isn't behind. you've guinea prigozhin attempted mutiny around a year ago. so we'd also seen a corruption scandal and the defense ministry less than three weeks ago a top deputy defense minister, i really close ally of sergei shoigu was arrested this is often a tactic used in russia to try to glean

information about the higher ranks un or ministry. so that's certainly feeded, fed into the speculation that but i think look, in terms of the facts on the ground and ukraine, it's not clear that much will change, that will still be mainly the purview of the head of the armed forces says, i think this is really an acknowledgment by putting an economist in this position on the ribulose of as the former economy minister, he's a trained soviet economists by doing that, it's really an acknowledgment that this is now an economy on a war footing. they need someone able to manage the military spending, which is now some 6.7 when percent of ddb. and so by doing that, it's in its again, what we've, what we've seen said by both sides in this war, the neto secretary general has that this is a war of industrial steel production. if russia is going to win, they need that military to production to be at full throttle with all the challenges involved in that of doing that under sanctions, of doing that in a situation with a war has itself really drained, rushes labor force. so

those are the challenges facing the new defense minister. the russian economy now needs the war, i think as much as the war needed it's the russian economy. rosemarie and clear what more are you learning about the situation in and around how to kyiv as russia appears to be taking advantage of delay in the arrival of additional western military aid russia is definitely taking advantage of this rosemary, the assault which began on friday, was really the biggest cross-border pack that we've seen from russia. >> it was sort of a brigade level attack that we've seen in many months, possibly since the early stages of the full-scale invasion itself the russia by sunday had claimed to have taken five villages in the border regions. i mean, ukraine has not acknowledged, but the head of the ukrainian armed forces saying on sunday that the situation in hockey region has escalated. now there's a few things that could be going on here. one, russia we know has been heavily bombarding the city of kharkiv for many, many months. that's ukraine's second

50 speculation that they were trying to launch an assault in that direction, albeit while military analysts are saying they probably don't have the capacity to take over that whole city the second thing is that the kharkiv region is right bordering the russian border. we know that ukrainian attacks over the border, particularly in the belgorod region, has stepped up. so they may be trying to create a buffer zone. that expand that to try and prevent those attacks and prison zelenskyy has also said that he believes they're trying to stretch ukrainian forces even thinner. they are still pushing hard and the donetsk region in particular, trying to take over that whole region. so by launching this assault up in the north, they then stretch ukraine's already depleted army even thinner. or as me all right, thanks to close the bastion joining us live from london and we'll be right back you think, you know the story, but there's more beneath the surface how it really happens

47 days but we we're just told that the operation has been postponed until, uh, monday afternoon because of the weather. we spoke with the us coast guard just to try and get an understanding of just how complicated this operation is and why every environmental factor matters. >> there is an increment weather in the area today through are a few lightnings trigs. whenever there's a lightning strike in the area that pushes the clock back. and so that clock just kept getting pushed back and push back. and so ultimately we arrived at the decision to postpone until tomorrow. a very dynamic situation that we're dealing with here with the key bridge response it's important to note that we will absolutely not sacrifice is safe now, the unified command and the us army corps of engineers has been looking at and working at the structure for several days now, they have already gone in and and carried out a number of precision cuts in those position cuts, they have placed

miles and change their plans just to make sure that since meant goes on as planned. >> so instead of it being and pomona college, it's going to be here in la at the shrine auditorium. you can see it here behind me. there are security measures already in place. there is a barrier or metal barrier and already security guards, you are not allowed inside the auditorium. if you do not have a ticket, the school of policy plagiarizing and saying not only that this was an inconvenience, but also saying that they would provide transportation for the students to get here to los angeles. nonetheless, students let's just disappointed and say they're not happy about this whole change. take a listen to what one student said. >> i think it's sad and i think it's it's a really bad wade and your college career and i think it's showing exactly where pomona is headed and some universities like columbia and usc canceling altogether this big traditional commencement ceremony. >> and instead of making other plans citing safety reasons and wanting to avoid protests, we

saw students at duke university walking out, right as the commencement speaker was introduced, that was jerry seinfeld. he was able to give his address as planned with no apparent interruptions and this weekend at different universities, we saw students at uc berkeley chanting and protest singh briefly pausing the commencement ceremony. they then walked out of that event and also add virginia commonwealth university at least a dozen students also walking out when the governor was beginning to give his commencement address. so again, that's what a lot of universities are trying to avoid this. weekend. and others who have events later on. and of course, this has also caused us a lot of frustration amongst students who had to deal with graduating from high school the middle of a pandemic. and now again, having to deal with commencement under difficult circumstances or under something that they do not consider a normal commencement ceremony camila bernal, cnn,

here you can see is we start off the day monday that first wave really focused across eastern texas, much of louisiana, and portions of mississippi by the time we get to monday afternoon into the evening hours while it spreads eastward also begins to fill in. so several more areas have the potential to see those strong to severe thunderstorms and it will continue moving ever so slowly to the east, even as we head into tuesday, which is why that third read also continues there. in addition to tornadoes damaging winds and hail, there's also the potential for flooding. now the flooding extends essentially from chicago all the way down to the gulf coast. but really the focus is going to be on monday between mobile, alabama back through new orleans, keeping in mind too, that there is still the potential for flooding across east texas, if you recall, we had some devastating floods north of houston just one week ago. so even though that area is not really the focus for monday, any additional rainfall and net areas likely just going to exacerbate a lot of the cleanup efforts that are still on ongoing in that area most of

these locations, you can see here in the yellow anticipating about two to four inches total over the next few days. but there will be some isolated spots. they could pick up as much as four or even five inches of rain total well, finally, the styles came out for la is gold gala. it's held every year to, on an asian pacific contributions to the creative arts and more, kristie lu stout has the store all right stars arrived at the music center in downtown los angeles saturday to attend the annual gold gala a gathering of who's who in the asian pacific community the event celebrates the non-profit gold house is a 100 list, 100 changemakers making a significant impact, in areas like entertainment, fashion technology, and more it's great to see that kind of visibility there's a long way to go still, obviously, we feel that way. but the progress is being made among this year's
