answer questions you may have call now and we'll come to you 808 to 14000 this is cnn breaking news we're following breaking news into cnn from the middle east. israel says it launched a strike in beirut, lebanon targeting a hezbollah commander that it blames for a rocket attack on the golan heights that killed 12 children this is new video of the aftermath of that attack. you can see rubble on the ground debris, they're strong across this street. we also new video showing a cloud of smoke in the air. this as lebanese state media is reporting that the attack was conducted by a drone that fired three missiles though the idf has not provided details about exactly how this strike was conducted. >> and we are getting some live pictures here from lebanon, which has been on edge ever since that deadly attack on the golan heights is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu had vowed serious consequences following that we have cnn
11:02 am
senior international correspondent ben we need them in live for us in beirut. ben, what more are you learning well, we understand this. >> strike took place just before 8:00 p.m. local time, just over an hour ago, when according to the official national news agency, a drone fired three missiles into a building in the hotter how can neighborhood of the southern part of a beirut. now according to the national news agency, one woman was killed in that strike. so far that's the number we have several other people were injured. now we have yet to hear official comment from his butler but we understand from reports in israel that the target was full and shook his nom the gary's abu mazen, who apparently rents remit some of the military operations of hezbollah certain. now this was a strike, not necessarily unanticipated,
11:03 am
since saturday, lebanon has barely been been very much on edge prime minister netanyahu has said that the response would be in his words severe. so far of this is the second strike on beirut since the beginning of hostilities in october back in january 2, january a senior hamas official was killed also in that part of beirut now, we've heard time and time again from his butler of its strikes on beirut particularly the southern suburbs where many of his butler's leaders operate would represent a crossing of a red line. we don't know what kind of response is coming plenty to come from his body. but certainly raised tensions. now, i'm hearing that, for instance, people are lining up outside petrol stations of fueling up in anticipation of far worse to come. we've seen over the last few days,
11:04 am
cancelations by airlines coming into beirut, advisories from various embassies for their nationals to leave lebanon as quickly as possible. so we'll just have to see at this point, brianna what sort of response his butler will have to this strike this evening on paper and ben, it's notable that there has been some tension between the lebanese government and hezbollah, even through tacit statements that they've made, how are the lebanese responding to this incident? >> obviously beirut, the capital of that country? >> but it depends who you actually speak to. there are many supporters of his butler in beirut, but many opponents as well. many people feel that hezbollah has gotten lebanon into a situation where it's on the brink of war, a war that today don't want many people we don't want. there is little appetite is as a country don't forget that lived through a 15
11:05 am
year civil war multiple wars with israel. the beirut port blast on 4 august 2020, there is no appetite for this sort of thing. now, i spoke to the form prime minister the other day who said that when it comes to his butler, there helpless in terms of the the course of events, the actions that his bullet text the foreign minister told me he regularly speaks with senior officials in his butler but in the end, hizballah does what his bulla wants to do and that oftentimes does not coincide with the desires of a the lebanese government and b, many of the people of lebanon, boris ben wedeman, thank you so much for that report. >> we know that you're going to continue getting more information there on the grid brown with us now to discuss, we have cnn, global affairs analyst kim dozier. cnn's chief national security analyst, jim
11:06 am
sciutto, and cnn's chief national security correspondent, alex marquardt, and cnn military analyst and retired army lieutenant general mark hertling jim to you first on this israel was particularly quick to confirm sometimes they haven't been, but they did hear and i wonder if your read on that is that they were trying to signal that this was a proportional response. what do you think? >> i mean, they could signal all they want, right? but they're striking inside the inside beirut, which, which hezbollah had said it as a red line. listen in this region, folks are setting red lines all the time. had sometimes they're not and it's hard to read what those red lines are but, but from hezbollah's perspective, this is striking very close to home here. and in the realm of options that israel had, this one is certainly at the higher end, right it's a direct shot at their home base in effect here, that's extremely risky in this environment. it is our understanding that they gave the u.s. a. heads up here. they haven't always given the u.s a. heads-up before the strike,
11:07 am
that doesn't mean that the u.s. wanted this to happen. the u.s read as i understand, it, has been that they do not expect this current back-and-forth to lead to a broader regional war they don't believe the party parties want it, but the trouble is the u.s. cannot control the response of any of the parties or their reads of what is a step too far. and this is certainly pushing the envelope with hezbollah, which is something that, as we've talked about many times netanyahu has not been shy to do, right? you had another decal capitation operation inside beirut prior and you saw reaction to that. so this is a dicey time. this is not an insignificant attack. and now you're going to be looking at how hezbollah response i should note that that hezbollah has often said, if you strike beirut will strike tel aviv, whether they can pull that off given the defense's but you have to imagine that in hezbollah's range of reactions, there are significant, significant options as well. we have to pause the panel for a moment. >> want to go straight to the
11:08 am
press room and the white house where there is a press briefing and a question was just asked about the strike. let's listen israeli strikes in lebanon today do you view them as escalatory? do you think they're appropriate response to what? >> previously so obviously we are aware of the reports out there that the idf just conducted a strike against hezbollah in lebanon and i leave it to israel to speak for their own military operations. >> i do not have an immediate comment as this just happened, literally just happened a few minutes before i walked out. so i'm going to leave israel to certainly idf as they have been doing to respond to this and just don't have an immediate comment at this time. >> and then just to follow up on collins question earlier, the lula called so no immediate comment from the white house about the strike in beirut previously, we'd seen the spokesperson of the national security council, john kirby come out and address this a bit
11:09 am
surprising that he's not there. but alex, to, you, he recently please said that threats of an all-out war in the region, were exaggerated. even though the u.s. had told israel that they should be cautious of a direct strike on beirut? yeah. i think that was really notable. i was on that call yesterday with kirby and i think it took a lot of us by surprise because we have heard these warnings for months about the possibility of this spiraling out of control, not just with hezbollah lebanon, but with other proxy group, iranian proxy groups in the region. iran itself, of course, we saw them strike israel on april 13. i think he was certainly telegraphing confidence there. you also heard ben wedeman saying that he was told by the foreign minister that they had received assurances that this would be a relatively narrow spawns, but i think jim is absolutely right when you strike dahia, southern beirut, this is the hezbollah stronghold in the lebanese capital. you are certainly running a real risk here. >> what we know for sure now is this was the israeli response
11:10 am
to that strike over the weekend that killed those 12 kids in the golan heights. >> the big question now is is that is that it is there more coming this will certainly prompt a significant response by hezbollah because we do believe that this was a senior commander. how many other people were killed and then if there are more israeli follow-on strikes against israeli infrastructure elsewhere in beirut against the airport, for example, against civilians millions that could certainly cause things to spiral out of control. but you're absolutely right, boris, the white house is confident, or at least where they were yesterday, that the fears over this escalation were exaggerated. and perhaps some of the tea leaves, we can read some of the tea leaves right now that the idf said in their statement after they said targeted a senior commander, that they're not changing their posture you're on the home front, they're not telling, for example, israeli citizens to take cover in a way that they haven't prior. jim did note that many tens of thousands or no longer in their homes in the northern part of israel, the u.s. state
11:11 am
department was also asked whether they're changing their posture when it comes to american civilians. and so far, they are not, they have urged americans to take advantage of commercial travel while it's available because if things do escalate, they say they would encourage americans to shelter in place. >> him kirby saying that, you know, batting down concerns, that there may be an all-out war. is that reality or is that more of an aspirational statement as you look at what's happening well, surely that's hopeful signaling, but the white house understood that israel needed to respond. the target that had been hit in the golan was a druze community. that's not israeli. these were not israeli citizens. they had citizenship cards, but not citizenship so they had identity card and so there had to be some sort of military response. the target seems to have been very carefully chosen. now, there are a lot of names that can be similar, but
11:12 am
supposedly the target hit was flawed sugar, and there is a flawed shook are listed in the u.s. state department rewards for justice program with bounty on his head of $5 he's listed as his villa is highest adviser to hassan nasrallah so this could be a target that was chosen very carefully, knowing that how can the white house criticize hitting someone that is high on their terrorist wanted list jim, i know it might be hard to speculate but as far as the response from hezbollah, what can we expect to see? >> listen, i mean, they've got an enormous arsenal of rockets and missiles, which they can target northern israel as they have for months going back to just in the days after the october 7 attack and the israeli response, if they have an order of magnitude larger, an arsenal of missiles that they had during the last israel, lebanon war in 2006.
11:13 am
and some of them quite sophisticated and with a volume that you could conceivably get through israeli defenses if you were to go if you're a push that har that's possible. but of course they know that that what then generate and israeli response. and here we are again and what's, what's the cycle of violence in the middle east? i will make this point when i was in northern israel after october 7, and the folk folks forget this, but an alex reference, this tens is that thousands of israelis have moved south because it's not safe to be in the north there's a lot of israeli public support for military action against hezbollah. you hear a lot there of like, we got to finish the job, right? once geysers done, got to finish the job in the north and you hear that from many israeli officials as well. that's a factor, right? i mean, even if you get through this period will there be another period where israel chooses to take more significant military action? it's very possible. >> all right, everyone stay with us. we are watching this breaking news. israel has claimed responsibility for a strike in southern beirut. it says that it was targeting a hezbollah leader, responsible

11:19 am
killed. the white house, the briefing there karine jean-pierre was just asked another the question about this strike. let's listen in i may kirby said yesterday that fears of an all out between israel and hezbollah were exaggerated. >> i still white house's assessment after today's strike. >> so we do not believe that an all-out war is inevitable. that is not something that we believe and we believe that it can still be avoided we did you know, this is a president you've watched him the last three-and-a-half years. he believes and diplomacy, diplomatic solutions especially as we're talking in this moment along the blue line, that, that is true as well. and so that will end these attacks if we have some diplomatic solution from hezbollah once and for all, and allow israel and lebanese citizens on both sides of the border to return to their homes and live and live in live in safety. and that's what we want to see so we that's what we believe. there's a diplomatic solution
11:20 am
here, and that's what we're trying to get to our panel joins us again, and i want to go to retired general mark hertling, who was patiently awaiting as we were processing all of this news. >> general karine jean-pierre, those spoke of a diplomatic solution to the tension between israel and hezbollah. but many experts have pointed out that any solution without a ceasefire between hamas and israel is likely not going to last how critical are those two components to actually moving forward with a stable situation on the northern border? for of israel with lebanon well, anytime you're talking about a conflict, boris, you have to have some kind of political end state in this case for israel, a political end state is getting rid of hamas, protecting their citizens from strikes from various tourist organizations, getting there hostages back and finding a forward solution in hamas or in gaza rather.
11:21 am
>> so all of those things are part of a potential political solution. and i know that's what the united states has been working harder and doing. when you're talking about the shift from a focus of attention on hamas to hezbollah what i'd suggest today we've been talking about this one strike in the southern boundaries of the city of beirut. >> i'm looking at it from the standpoint of a military analysis of what was the time of the strike. >> it was early in the evening about 1,900 or so hours. so 7:00 in evening, the target it was a terrorist leader who had allegedly used his power under the shadows of the beirut government to strike an area within israel. the weapons system that israel used tonight was a drone in a very precise attack. and the effects were the killing of that individual according to what's been reported so far, the message that's being sent though i
11:22 am
think is critically important. israel wants to maintain security for its citizens. there have been multiple strikes from southern lebanon into israeli territory. in fact, probably more in the last few months from southern lebanon and we've even seen in the last few months from hamas out of gaza. so repeated rocket attacks, repeated attempts at killing civilians all that which has been defended by the israeli defense forces the message being sent right now, i believe to hezbollah is first of all, we knew where that target was. we knew we had to come after him because he was a terrorist who had struck inside of our country the effects where we hit that target wherever it was going, it was, it was a pattern of life, if you will, of that target that caused them to strike early in the evening as opposed to 2:00 in the morning like most kinetic strikes are john when there's less population in the area. so all of those things tell me that israel, at least
11:23 am
now, is attempting to prevent a future expansion of this conflict into lebanon. and that's a good thing, is the expansion inevitable like so many people have been questioning i believe that it is not but it takes some very careful not only political messages, but also some military approaches. and i think today if this was the only strike that. israel uses, they have sent the message and it's a limited proportional response to the killing of israeli citizens over the weekend and kim obviously, this is seen as something we don't see pancaked buildings. this is something smaller and yet this is hugely significant as well. what is the appetite for? and also maybe the red isn't for a broader conflict within israel and also within hezbollah well, his blot up to this point, has shown a lot of control it's
11:24 am
either ratcheted its attacks up or down depending on where israel is on the battlefield in gaza. so i think like mark is saying you're going to see no great response to this. maybe some limited response of hezbollah targeting of israeli military targets. but unless we have another mishap that leads to high civilian casualties, unless this strike inside beirut lead to high civilian casualties. i think this is just going to end up being another salvo in the back-and-forth because his villas maine adviser on this is iran and iran is holding its fire, so to speak, it has helped his villa arm with something like more than 150,000 sophisticated missiles and other projectiles that can hit almost every three major populated target inside israel. but once you go to using that that's hard to restock and
11:25 am
that's the kind of thing that can lead to some sort of a nuclear response, some sort of a world war three types situation. iran doesn't want that his below, which is part of the lebanese government, doesn't want that and so i that's why i think this limited strike might be what we see for now and we go back to the for tat that will continue as long as fighting continues in gaza. >> alex, do something notable that kim said was the fact that this rocket strike and the golan heights, it was it was actually a mishap right? >> there has been this for tat tat, as kim says, since october 8 you know, it's been a lower simmer compared to gaza, but the nightmare scenario guys has been that one of these hezbollah rockets would take out a large number of children. that's exactly what happened. this is a slightly different situation in that it hit a kids playing on a soccer field in the occupied golan heights. these are this is a druze community that in a large way
11:26 am
rejects israel and rejects israeli citizenship. but of course, israel he sees this as a strike on israeli territory, but officials, i've spoken with do acknowledge that this was a mistake by hezbollah. nevertheless, this was a mistake that has now precipitated a response. major questions of course, whether this military commander as the idf said they targeted, was actually taken out. that remains to be seen major questions about whether they will expand those strikes. i think kim is probably right, this is what we're going to see. i think for now, there is furious diplomacy going on behind the scenes. so often we talk about the gaza ceasefire deal. there's a parallel a diplomatic track that is being led by amos hochstein out of the white house to try to broker not just peace on that northern israeli border, but a way in which those tens of thousands of israeli civilians can actually go home. so what they're looking for, what the u.s. and israel are hoping for. is that hezbollah would actually pull back from that southern border at least six
11:27 am
miles or ten kilometers winners there are a lot of people who think american officials included that this is very much linked to a gaza ceasefire deal. to your point, boris, that without the fighting stopping in gaza, you're never going to have peace on the northern border israel sees those two things as separate. but of course, when you look at the damage which that was done in downtown beirut tonight, big questions about what comes next is certainly alex. thank you so much. kim, general hertling. we thank you as well. and coming up on cnn news central turning to the race for the white house and vice president kamala harris speaking in atlanta tonight with a big decision on her mind, who should be her running mate for the democratic ticket. we're going to talk about the veepstakes and how her pick mike he able to help her win will have the next everything you want is right tear disney plus hulu next

easy, gets started today at costuming.com laura coates, live tonight at 11 eastern on cnn from lost cause to once again in play, potentially, vice president kamala harris is set to hold a campaign rally in the key battleground state of georgia later today, these are images moments ago from her departure at joint base andrews as she heads to the peach state, a state that president joe biden flipped in 2020, the first time in three decades, the democrats have won there and we're harris campaign official say they're seeing renewed enthusiasm. >> doozy sm, they'll need to
11:33 am
once again capture georgia. the campaign is also targeting a key voting bloc. this affected georgia republicans citing former president trump's attacks on top republicans in the state and nikki haley's strong showing during republican primaries, even after she had dropped out of the race. the campaign stop in atlanta comes as we're learning that vice president harris is going to travel to a series of battleground states next week with her newly chosen a running mate cnn senior data reporter harry enten joins us now because harry, we've been talking about this all week and that is the impact that a potential vp contender can have on the ticket. so walk us through the track record here. the vp math yeah. >> let's walk through the vp math who will vice president harris choose to be what she hopes to be? her vice president. so let's take a look because, you know, the fact is, i believe past is prologue when it comes to vp selections, that is, how did they perform amongst the voters who know them best in their
11:34 am
home states? so there's a pretty good way to understand that. how much did these gentlemen outperformed biden's 2020 margin in their own election in 2022. and i want you to look, there is a clear runaway winner on this metric. it's josh shapiro from the state of pennsylvania. he won by 15 points in a state. joe biden won just by once we outperformed of my 14 point look, mark kelly and arizona, not too bad. in fact, he was the best running democrat statewide in arizona in 2022, but he only outran biden by five points. and then tim walz has been getting a lot of press at least on social media lately. the idea perhaps you want to choose someone from the midwest, but he in fact didn't really outperform the baseline very much in 2022 just by 0.6 percentage points. again, compare that to josh shapiro, who outran biden by 14 points. and i'll also note in 2020 when he ran for attorney general, he was the top vote getter for the democrats. and that year as well. so josh shapiro, the clear runaway favorite, at least on this metric and harry, what signs do you have that a vice
11:35 am
presidential candidate can help a president carry their state yeah pennsylvania, pretty key state, arizona, and other key state. >> so the question is, can these guys actually help you in these states? if you put them on the ticket. so i want to just sort of look at what the political science tells, tells us i'm a little bit of a nerd, but we kind of look at this and we try to gain an understanding of whether a vp nominee can actually help the top of the ticket in their state. and what do we find? we find that in fact, there does seem to be a proven benefit. now it is small, it is small, 0.5 to two points added to their running mates margin on average. but again, boris, you know, elections in this country, how tight are they, right? you know, you go back to 2020. what was pennsylvania decided by 1.2 points? you go to arizona. what was it decided by? by about 0.3 points. so the idea that maybe you could add half a point to two points to the top of the ticket. that could be the entire ball game. and given how close this election seems to be
11:36 am
shaping up between harris and trump, i would definitely think harris wouldn't mind adding 0.5 to two points in either arizona or in pennsylvania it could make all the difference. >> so every which of the potential vice presidential home state could likely make that slight difference and give the white house to vice president harris yeah. >> where do you want to add that? 0.5 to two points? well it's pennsylvania boris, it's pennsylvania. it's not only that josh shapiro runs very strongly in pennsylvania. you might be sensing a theme going on here, but also pennsylvania is likely, or at least the most likely state to determine who wins this election. so the chance that one of these states put someone over the top, look at this pennsylvania a 30% so in chance, a 30% chance that pennsylvania is the state that ultimately puts a candidate over the top. you compare that to arizona. it's just 4%, right? minnesota is less than 3%. why is this the math? well,
11:37 am
boris, it's the math because pennsylvania has 19 electoral votes. arizona has just 11 electoral votes. she would much rather add that 19 electoral votes to your column, mr. sanchez, and you combine that with the fact that josh shapiro has done so well in pennsylvania and currently has get this a 61% approval rating in the state of pennsylvania. it's pretty clear to me where the math does point for vice president harris, its josh shapiro notably, it's also the state that republicans see as most getable within the blue wall states that democrats so badly need to win. harry enten, appreciate the math has always. >> and i appreciate you, boris. >> thanks we should note that one of those vice presidential contenders will be on cnn tonight with anderson cooper, minnesota governor tim walz joining us at 8:00 p.m. eastern. don't miss that conversation, brianna since it seems pretty obvious that we're going to be saying vice president kamala harris, his
11:38 am
name a lot. let's talk about pronouncing it correctly and why former president donald trump refuses to hear he was just this past friday at a campaign rally in florida they were explaining to me, you can say camila, you could say kamala. i said, don't worry about it, doesn't matter what i say. i couldn't care less if i mispronounced it or not, i couldn't care less for someone who says he doesn't care, trump shore seems to care at least about the fact that he's now facing harris instead of president joe biden in this election. we've all mispronounced name. this is obviously not that trump has a history of purposely mispronouncing names specifically of people who aren't went white, or emphasizing traditionally non-white names as a racist dog whistle for instance, the biggest perpetrator of the birther conspiracy theory is also the longtime president of the barack obama middle name, fan club we're okay obama
11:39 am

11:53 am
gunman to shoot the former president. listen i went to the roof of the ajr building were they assailant fired shots and i laid in prone position to evaluate his line of sight what i saw made me ashamed as a career law enforcement officer and a 25 year veteran with the secret service. >> i cannot defend why that roof was not better secured roe was testifying alongside fbi deputy director paul abbate. >> both men now vowing to bolster security measures actually saying that some of this has already started. in fact, cnn senior justice correspondent evan perez is here with us. evan, this was the latest in a series of congressional hearings on this assassination attempt. what really stood out to you, it really was the most substantive hearing that had to date because we got a lot of information not only from the fbi, from paul abbate, the deputy director, but also from
11:54 am
mr. rowley, the new acting director. and you could tell that he started off from the right place, right? he said he went to the scene of the attack, which is something the director previously who who stepped down, she didn't do before her own hearing and so one of the things we learned is that it appears again over a period of minutes, 90 minutes, that local law enforcement had seen some a suspicious person and they were trying to figure out who he was and over a period of time that information, according to the fbi, to the secret service, acting director did not make it to the former president's detail, and that's a key piece of information because it means they didn't have time to make a decision as to whether to keep him behind stage while they were trying to figure this possible threat. listen to this exchange with the senators it's about the lack of information i think he was
11:55 am
identified as being suspicious by local law enforcement and nothing happened while i know that local law enforcement was attempting to locate him. would you say the roof being unattended, breaches standard protocol for setting up a security perimeter what i would say center or is that that roof should have had better coverage and we will get to the bottom of if there were any policy violations and one of the things we also heard during the hearing was at the secret service didn't have any drones operating there, but they did have the capability to defeat drones we know the shooter flew a drone near the site there, but it appears that the system to defeat that wasn't operating at a time for another hour because of cell phone signal problems. notably, evan early on in the testimony we heard that officials have been able to piece together what they believe was a social media account linked to the shooter that had hundreds of posts and were related to antisemitism
11:56 am
and anti-immigration views. is that right? >> right. so they're investigating a couple of different accounts. one of them it is an account that had these postings or had these content that appears to be anti-immigration, anti-semites, anti-semitic is bouncing violence. there's another account that we know has been made public by the ceo of gab that both of those are being investigated. keep in mind these are these are postings and these are contents from years ago. he was 20-years-old, right? so if it was from four years ago, he was 17, 16-years-old. so it's not clear that anything more recent that would maybe give us a sense of his his his point of view has emerged as part of this investment yes, really amazing. >> evan. thank you so much for the latest on that. we are following breaking news out of the middle east the israel defense forces confirming it was behind the strike in southern beirut, targeting a hezbollah commander. our coverage will continue after
