going to see temperatures above 90 over the next few days, maybe not every day, but certainly you will there's where the heat will be for today, a little bit farther toward the west tomorrow. and really just expanding toward even dc by the weekend where temperatures will be almost 100 degrees and that's not heat index, that's thermometer. we still have these excessive heat warnings and watches all the way across the us where we're just now seeing just long duration days, whereas day after day, over 90 degrees, over 95 degrees in some spots, even new york city today, all the way to 90 92. and if you are not in the wind or if you are in the sunshine or between buildings with the concrete, it will feel warmer than that without a doubt, today's heat index in syracuse, a lovely 99 this afternoon, and 99 not with heat index, but with the air temperature for dc saturday and for sunday, lot of folks gonna be doing things out and about in dc make sure you try to stay

where all they can do is nurse the shock that everything they own might be lost the not-knowing is a numbing feeling. he says is incredibly helpless feeling where there's literally nothing you can do. it really is and for the past 24 hours, we've been in this little motel and i think well, we don't have anything left. now, where did we go? >> to massive fires around ruidoso are burning across 20,000 acres emergency officials say the wildfires have destroyed 1,400 homes and structures we reach some of those neighborhoods and saw the charred remains of dozens of homes, even found dear making their way through the scarred hillsides yeah, i can see the fire right outside this window. kurt delgado evacuated his home to the edge of town where he set up his puppy to love food truck and started feeding firefighters and emergency crews from the window of your food truck? >> yeah. you can see the smoke and the canyon where your houses? yeah. morehouse is

literally right there where that smoke is delgado says he'll stay here as long as he can my parents are that airstream might there were ready to go. >> we're going to do what we can to just stay vigilant about 8,000 people have evacuated the rio dso areas. it's monday, the mountain village is an eerie smoke-filled ghost town. there are a few people left though, like jordan route, i imagine a moment like this is pretty nerve-wracking yeah. >> yeah, i thought i didn't think it was going to come this close to us. next you happen so fast. >> our conversation was interrupted by police urging residents to evacuate immediately. we managed to find our way into michael scott's neighborhood in ruidoso. many of the homes were burned to the ground. but somehow michael's home is still standing. slice of good news, surrounded by devastation and sadness we were

able to show michael scott a picture of his home. he said he had tears of joy seeing that his home was still intact, but he and thousands of others are still not in the clear. these wildfires continued to burn, but the good news is, is that weather forecasters say reign, which has already fallen a little bit on wednesday, is expected to continue into thursday. and the hope is that that will give firefighters the relief they need to get these wildfires under control. i'd love indira cnn, ruidoso, new mexico like al ced, my has reported a little earlier high temperatures are set to continue across the us through the weekend. >> it comes after more than a dozen daily high temperature records were either broken or tidal wednesday in the northeast some new england states will see a brief reprieve from the heat. thanks to a cold front sweeping it on friday, but others are busy thinking of ways to stay cool

mykey and hide crazy, overwhelming, but it is what it is. >> staying cool this is a process this week, i think eating a lot of ice cream, taking lots of showers and being grateful for air conditioning, we are so blessed to have it stake hydrated, and be well out there let me putin is spending the de in vietnam in a bid to boost economic ties after his trip to north korea or dignitaries welcome the russian leader at her noise presidential palace a short time ago, mr. putin is trying to dispel the perception that he's increasingly isolated by western sanctions over the war in ukraine. >> he's already met with the vietnamese, is president, and we'll speak with the prime minister and communist party chief in the hours ahead. the russian leader has expressed his will willingness to help vietnam with its nuclear power

program and increase tourism between the two countries. >> well, let's bring in cnes beijing bureau chief steven jiang. steven explained to us the importance of putin's trip to hanoi. >> and i guess how it differs from his stopover in p on yank knowing very well that russia and vietnam she had these very deep and long relationship yeah, this stop in hanoi, of course, as part of russia's effort and putin's effort to show to the us and its western allies that russia still has friends on the global stage and for hanoi, of course, russia has remained it's number one arms supplier. >> and that is an important role that russia obviously wants to maintain because hanoi has been trying to diversify its sources of weaponry, especially following russia's invasion of ukraine. but the two sides are still very much tied up on this from, and there also maintaining a very strong ties economically especially in the oil and gas field with

their joint venture in vietnam's biggest oil field, for example, generating millions of dollars for both sides. and politically, of course, hanoi has been very adapting playing the straddling game, trying to maintaining and improving ties with all the major powers that really have been trying to hanoi. and not only with moscow, but also with beijing and washington. and that seemed to be quite a successful strategy so far. and putin, of course, as you have seen then all these visuals that both in hanoi and pyongyang really enjoying this the status of being welcomed and received as a head of state, even as he increasingly become a pariah in the eyes of the west and that kind of upgrade a relationship with both had no and pyongyang it's definitely a messaging to the western world as well from where i am standing, china has not said much about these developments. there also, the obviously watching very closely, but i think they are secure and confident enough

about their relationship with russia and north korea. and understanding that their role is indispensable well in propping a both economies, obviously they've been providing north korea with an economic lifeline for decades, but increasingly they're doing so with the russian economy as well, helping moscow dodge severe western sanctions by a rapidly expanding economic and trade relationship with moscow. and that's why they are very much confident that these newly assigned agreement between pyongyang and moscow, they're not going to affect a china's row and china's position and china's relationship with both moscow and pyongyang. anna it's even john joining us from beijing. we appreciate the update. thank you israel and hezbollah, a trading you threats of wool, the militant group's leader is warning cyprus against opening its airports and bases to israeli forces. >> after israel warned given all-out war the iranian backed

ammunitions to israel cnn's mj lee reports from washington those comments from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, where he accused the us of holding back weapons and ammunitions from israel, really not sitting well with us officials. >> a one senior official telling me that they were perplexing and simply wrong what cnn is learning is that us officials actually privately conveyed that sentiment to prime minister netanyahu in a meeting us envoy almost hochstein been told the prime minister that those comments were unproductive and completely untrue. and meanwhile, us ambassador to israel, jack lew said in that same meeting, basically sort walked through all of the arms that are being provided to israel and have been delivered to israel basically to make the point that he believes the ambassador is wrong. and what we've seen us officials do,

it's publicly emphasize that there's only one shipment of arms that the us is currently so the holding and that is the shipment that president biden has talked about publicly. now, there is an israeli delegation that is currently in washington to have a series of meetings with their american counterparts. and we're told that a meeting that was slated for thursday appears to have been postponed, though one official said that that was actually a reaction to prime minister netanyahu's comments in that video, other officials told cnn that it was it was actually just a scheduling matter. but either way, we're of course, continuing to see those tensions between us and israeli officials continuing to mount as this war goes on, mj lee cnn at the white house the us has re-anchored. >> it's temporary pier to the coast of gaza, according to two us officials, the pier was dismantled earlier this month for the second time in

surrounded by chinese vessels with chinese sailors brandishing shop weapons and slashing a philippine vessel the incident happened near the contested spratly islands from all let's turn to our ivan watson here with his here in hong kong. >> and i've a new, of course, of witness these skirmishes up close firsthand, but this incident certainly appears to be far more aggressive short, this definitely looks like an escalation. yes, i've been on board a philippine coast guard ship. i've witnessed how chinese coast guard ships and maritime militia that they will swarm and surround and bloc and harass and intimidate. but what's different here in the footage that has been released by the filipino armed forces is these are smaller boats china coast guard, what appear to be either philippine marines and or nevi and the confrontation involves a injuries the philippine armed forces, they say that several of their sailors were injured. one lost

a finger they have shown video of the chinese personnel in uniform waving an ax and other clubs and knives. they've accused them of basically an act of piracy and of taking materials and bags from onboard the philippine boats. and also of destroying some of their equipment. the chinese government has responded and basically blamed all of this on the philippines. take a listen china urges the philippines to immediately stop its infringing and provocative actions. china will continue to resolutely safeguard its sovereignty and rights in accordance with the law at issue here, anna is a territorial dispute that goes back years, but has been heating up for a number of months now, the south china sea, it has a number of

countries surrounding it, but china claims almost all of it for itself. >> and that includes area three is like the spratly islands and the second time is shoal, which are much closer to the philippines. if you look on the map than they are to mainland china. and that is where the confrontations have been taking place over much of the last year as these have escalated, the philippine government has basically said, hey, if one of our personnel, if one of our citizens is killed, china will have crossed the rubicon. it will have crossed a red line. and that was spelled out by the philippine president marcos junior in singapore just a few weeks ago go if a filipino citizen is killed by a willful act that is, i think very, very close to what we define as an act of war and therefore, we will respond accordingly. so these are serious words being

thrown around it is a david and goliath confrontation, or china here being goliath, much larger with the world's largest navy versus the philippines. but anna the philippines in manila have a mutual defense treaty with the us. it could be invoked and some experts say that the manila has grounds to do that. the us continues to reassert that its commitment to this mutual defense treaty is ironclad. and you've had the top diplomats from both countries communicate about this us secretary of state antony blinken, accusing china of provocations and illegal acts in international waters. >> anna i want to talk about that can be bent because the us says that it has the philippines back. i mean, what can it do or more importantly, what does it likely to do? >> well i don't need to

explain to you that there are already a number of major deadly conflicts taking place in gaza, risk of another one between israel and lebanon, the raging war in ukraine as well. i think the last thing that the the, world wants to see right now? is a major conflict, but the south china sea, this is not a new area of tension. you routinely have us and chinese planes and ships shadowing each other. i've seen that i've witnessed that firsthand a board us navy planes let's for example, but there are other actors at play here, not just the philippines, but vietnam, indonesia, the australians, european navy ships will go through these waters as different governments seek to challenge china's claim to this heavily trafficked body entirely for itself so during some of these confrontations that i've witnessed between philippine and chinese ships, us navy ships have not been far

away. and one of the things that measures that manila has taken in recent months is to grant the us additional rights to access military installations on philippine territory. and two even move weaponry into there, something that china has objected to. but all of this shows different sides building up tensions, building up, and a miscalculation could lead to further escalation. that is something we should all be concerned about. >> i'm what's great to get your reporting. thank you so much. >> well, debate preparations are underway. >> with just one week until us president joe biden and former president donald trump face off on stage how they're getting ready just to hit. plus vietnam rolls out the red carpet for vladimir putin, how the war in ukraine is factoring into another state visit for the russian president 'm thinking,

position on the war in ukraine he's also hoping to show that efforts by the west to isolate russia are not working is visit comes after stopping north korea, where he signed a trade and mutual defense pact, which some experts say maybe an attempt to justify the reported use of north korean munitions in the war in ukraine. for more, let's go to clear sebastian life for us in london and clear this mutual defense pact that was signed in pyongyang. what does this mean for the war in ukraine? >> well, and i think if you look at this in the context of the knots at all, subtle rhetoric that we saw in the lead up to this trip. and during this trip from birth, pickton and came on confronting the west, what bouton called the imperialist policies the us and its satellites. and if you look at putin's criticism right before he talked about this defense pact of the us and the west supplying weapons to ukraine, including essex deans of the lifting of some restrictions on using them to hit russian territory. it's pretty hard not to see this as

some kind of counterpoint to nieto's article five both korean state media also released the full text of this agreement later in the day, and it did clarify that if the if one side was attacked, the other would provide assistance including military. so it does look like some kind of collective defense pact, but we don't have much flesh on the bones as of yet in terms of what that would actually mean, would it mean that russia? just formidable nuclear deterrent now extends to north korea? would it mean that they're going to hold joint drills, perhaps setup joint forces of some kind. would anyone else be invited to join the packed in future? it's certainly raises a lot of questions and this is why ukraine, in terms of the more immediate danger of what it would mean in for a weapons transfers between the two countries is very concerned about this clear. >> we know moscow and pyongyang, they denied trading arms, obviously banned under un sanctions on north korea. but us intelligence believes there

have been thousands of containers of weapons sent to russia specifically for its war against ukraine. is there a fear that this will further escalation under this new defense pledge? >> yes. yeah, that definitely has. south korea has also said that north korean factory is working at full speed need to provide weapons for russia to use. and ukraine debris from north korean missiles has been found in ukraine. us intelligence has analyzed it and the meeting suddenly left the door open for this. president putin talks about the agreement he said does not rule out the development of military technical cooperation between the two sides. they also railed publicly against what's bruton called politically motivated sanctions, un sanctions don't forget on with grit explicitly prohibit the transfer of weapons and don't forget that russia had already it back in march, veto the extension the mandate of a panel of experts at the un that was monitoring north korean sanctions

violations. so it's one thing to rail against sanctions. it's another to stand up there, having already denied that this is happening and publicly at dismantle them, but certainly this meeting left the door open that this kind of trade, if it's already begun, could continue close the best and joining us from london, we appreciate the reporting. >> thank you just one week, us president joe biden and former the president donald trump will face off in a live debase right here on cnn. >> are both men are preparing for the pivotal showdown in what could be a defining moment in this year's presidential race? the white house press secretary said this about mr. biden's preparations that is squarely in the camp of the campaign. >> so i have to keep that there and i'm not going to speak in details about that. >> trump who skipped all the republican primary debates, is ramping up his preparation for

this high-stakes moments. cnn, political analyst, maggie haberman explains trump is taking this more seriously than people allow publicly, right? i mean, in public, his aides often downplay the prep that he does. he's been doing not standard debate prep. he doesn't have stand-ins as of now for both. they are focusing on various issues that could come up. abortion, health care energy covid, and then very specifically in this was one thing that came up last thursday. what trump will say when asked january 6 related questions and. >> the, rice remains tight and you, fox news poll shows mr. biden has inched ahead of trump for the first time since october. but as you can see, it's still a close match. >> the campaigns are clearly eager for the showdown with the biden team, marking the juneteenth holiday by tearing into what he calls trump's flagrant racism. his campaign

also released this ad we celebrate freedom. >> freedom to live play jews marry vote we are the culture. >> we blaze trails we define our future we are the heart and soul of america, and we must add in this moment, how will we continue our legacy? >> how will we continue to define america with are hard-earned rights under attack? >> from those who looked to divide the nation the biden campaign released a statement marking juneteenth and attacking trump, it reads in part, quote, donald trump has spent his entire life denigrating black americans he spent his entire presidency harming black communities. and he's spent his entire campaign. this cycle engaged in empty racist gimmicks instead of meaningful outreach. like

americans haven't forgotten his lifetime of racism the guidance gum, just days after donald trump tried to court black voters as he campaigns in detroit. over the weekend. >> well, a contentious republican primary in the state of virginia could be heading for a recount congressman bob good is locked in a tight race with state senator john maguire. they're a little over 300 votes apart and there's one man who could cost the incumbent. >> he's sit cnn's bryan todd explains republican congressman bob good in a nailbiter as he fights to retain his seat in virginia's fifth congressional district after tuesday's primary night. good trails his opponent by a razor-thin margin. and the race could be headed for a recount. good, normally checks all the boxes for being a far right. you maga republican. he's an election denier, support strict immigration measures, opposes all abortions, but he now could lose because of one moon is

when a congratulate and thank governor ron desantis. good. initially endorsed there's florida governor ron desantis in the republican presidential primary drawing ray from the man who ended up dominating the race bob good who is actually bad for virginia and who will stab you in the back like he did me. >> it didn't matter to former president donald trump that wants to satis bowed out. bob good went back to endorsing trump. good even made a poem mitch to trump's hush money trial to curry favor. >> we are president trump's voice. we have his back. >> none of it mattered. the marker of betrayal had been laid down. >> i think it's safe to say that donald trump holds a grudge and we've seen that if anyone, whether they're inside of his administration when he was president or their republican in congress that if they do anything that he considers disloyal, then he will go after them, trump endorsed good's challenger for the nomination. >> virginia state senator john maguire, a former navy seal known for his expertise in commando tactics. but good also drew the wrath of former house

speaker kevin mccarthy by being one of eight house republicans who voted to oust mccarthy from the speakership last fall. >> and so because of that, kevin mccarthy put some weight into this race as well behind bob good's challenger, the good maguire race isn't the only battle drawing attention to virginia and the trump dynamic in the state. eugene vindman, a whistleblower who served in trump's white house and raised alarms about trump's infamous 2019 phone we call with ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy that led to the then-president's first impeachment will win his democratic primary in virginia. cnn projects both presidential candidates are focusing attention on the commonwealth, even though president biden handily won virginia in 2020, biden held a fundraiser. they're tuesday night that included bill and hillary clinton, at which biden implored attendees to support abortion rights. trump recently campaigned in the state. >> republicans really want, really think that this, this is a state that is ripe, that if there is a wave or if there is a strong republican birth in

state capitol in atlanta. >> this cnn will protesters in kenya demanding the government scrap a controversial tax bill, huge crowds march in several cities, including the capital nairobi, with police, they're reportedly arresting hundreds of people kenya's government has announced amendments to the

this all started from the proposed finance bill that the government of president ruto brought forward that included higher taxes and basic commodities, including breads and eggs, and milk, and sugar and financial transactions. a lot of the important things that people use in the day to day after a huge public outcry and tuesday as protests a lot of those proposals were dropped, but some of them remain, for instance, a fuel maintenance levy hike that would make fuel more expensive. and those who oppose this finance bill has said, if you'll is more expensive, almost everything else will be expensive. it's an extraordinary to see these protests have been covering protests and kinesis 2007. i have never seen this level of youth participation largely led by young people, by women, by gen z is organizing and tiktok to have their voices hard encouraging the appears to come out. and that is why you see this kind of heavy-handed response to it. if you look around here you see a huge security presence in this row that's completely blocked off.

the government of president ruto to respond to the hustlers when he was running for president, he said he was a hustler. he understood the the plight of the common man. and now that's the column, the streets yet for him to resect that what's happening inside the national assembly right now is that the members of parliament are discussing some amendments and proposals. but the called aside is not to amend this finance bill is to abandon it entirely i remember do we know you'll be covering the protests throughout the day. we thank you for your reporting. >> will still to come argentina will defend the title, win copa america gets underway today in atlanta slated all week for this mr. saturday morning. so rise and shine. your chariot awaits you didn't get a greene frameworks just to hurt your windshield gas mowers, feelings you got it because greenwood's perfected lawn care on the
