hi, everyone. i'm zinhle essamuah. my co-anchor is on assignment. "nbc news daily" starts right now. today, monday, january 29th, 2024. breaking news, troops attacked. we just learned the identity of three american soldiers killed in a drone strike in jordan, the u.s. saying an iran-backed group

is responsible. deal in sight? the biden administration and bipartisan group of senators appear to be on the verge of immigration. royal relief, king charles and princess kate are both home today after their hospital stays. and ready for a refund? tax season is officially here, folks, and this year there are some big changes. what to know before you file that can save you money. we'll begin this hour in the middle east, where we're waiting to see how the biden administration responds to the deadly drone attack which killed three american service members, on sunday a drone packed with explosives hit tower 22 a logistics support base in northeast jordan, according to two pentagon officials this was the third time the base has been targeted in just the last six months more than 40 others were injured. the white house saying some of the troops were asleep when the strike hit. president biden is blaming the attack on iranian-backed

militant groups and they've been trading strikes with the u.s. for months. this is the first time american troops died in an attack. the president and his secretary of defense are promising retaliation. >> president and i will not tolerate an attack on u.s. forces. and we'll take all necessary actions to defend the u.s. and our troops. >> let's bring in courtney kube and ali raffa. we just learned moments ago the identity of those three soldiers who died. >> reporter: all three of them deployed out of georgia, specifically out of fort moore in georgia, they are sergeant william rivers from carrollton, georgia, specialist briana alexandra moffitt, all assigned to an battalion deployed out of

georgia. we're learning more about the attack, though, that took their lives and now as we have just heard from the pentagon briefing just moments ago at least 40 additional service members were now injured. this attack was one-way drone, they landed near a living room, sleeping area for troops, that's why the casualty high was so high here, where troops were sleeping at the time and more than 40 people injured and killed in this attack. now as you mentioned we have learned that this is not the first time an attack drone has targeted tower 22, on the northeastern side of jordan, just on the other side of the border in syria, from syria, so, this now the third time we're told in about the last six

months or so that a drone has targeted tower 22, but this was the first time that this was a successful attack. we're learning according the pentagon briefing still ongoing right now, that one of the leading theories here is that a hezbollah an iranian-backed militia group, a branch is one of the major groups they're looking at who may have been responsible for this attack. >> three american soldiers kidd, at least 40 injured. ali, the president met with his national security team earlier today, what are we learning about those discussions? >> reporter: yes, the white house actually shared this photo of president biden meeting for the second time since this attack on sunday night, with his national security team, this time in the situation room to weigh his options on how to respond to this attack and that's something that admiral john kirby with the national security council was repeatedly asked about in the white house

press briefing saying he wouldn't get ahead of the president's decision. he also added this. listen here. >> we'll do that on our schedule, in our time, we'll do it in a manner of the president's choosing as commander in chief. we'll also do it fully cognizant of the fact that these groups backed by tehran have just taken the lives of american troops. i think i'll leave it there. >> reporter: kirby was also repeatedly asked about the potential for the u.s. to strike directly on iran, something that a lot of gop lawmakers are now calling for, kirby notably not saying either way whether the president was considering this, just saying that the u.s. doesn't want to escalate tensions in this region, this is a very delicate decision-making process for the president as he tries to not escalate the situation but also trying to respond forcefully. >> thank you so much. at this hour, we're learning

new details about negotiations between the united states, israel, egypt and qatar to free more hostages. they're agreeing on framework that would release the remaining american and israeli hostages. that draft is being presented to hamas today. raf sanchez joins me now from tel aviv. hamas officials have previously said they would only release more hostages if israel ended the war, what makes this new proposal from negotiators different? >> reporter: that's the big question, we know that israeli negotiators at this summit in paris, including the cia director, signed off on the frame work of this agreement, we don't know yet what hamas' take on it is going to be, our own adrienne mitchell sat down with a qatari mediator. when he was asked how hamas is

likely to respond, this is what he had to say. >> we don't know and we can't predict what hamas' response will be, and we'll be faced with some challenges and obstacles. it's not an easy process from day one in the war but we're committed to continue to come up with some solutions. >> reporter: and israeli war cabinet is looking at this proposal tonight so we may get formal approval from the israeli government little later on. >> another development, israel detailing its accusations against the u.n. agency that provides aid to palestinians, alleging members of its staff participated in the october 7th attacks and in response more than a dozen countries are now suspending their funding to that agency.

>> reporter: so, earlier we obtained an israeli security document and it outlines allegations of 12 members of staff at unrwa. one example, one school counselor is alleged to have entered israel on october 7th and taken part in the kidnapping of a female hostage there, these allegations serious enough that the u.s. and other countries cutting off funding in the middle of this dire humanitarian crisis in gaza, unrwa, this agency said its ability to help 2 million palestinians depending on it, impacted by these cut in funding. >> thank you so much. here in the u.s., convicted murderer and disbarred attorney alex murdaugh is back inside a courtroom today where murdaugh and his team are trying to prove that jury tampering led to his murder conviction. kathy park has been following this case from the very

beginning and she's outside that courthouse today. kathy, can you remind us what today's hearing is about. >> reporter: hey, there, alex murdaugh's attorneys find a motion for a re-trial in september of 2023, accused the clerk of court becky hill of jury tampering and in that motion, several affidavits attached, one in particular, one that's especially notable from juror 630, said that becky hill told members of the jury to watch alex murdaugh closely. today the judge brought in all of the jurors individually, questioned them and there were very specific questions, one question was, did you have communication with becky hill and if so, did this have any impact on your verdict? that's playing out in court today and becky hill just was on the stand, she hasn't been

dismissed, she was just questioned by both sides a few moments ago. >> kathy, who else did we hear from today? >> reporter: so, we heard from all of the jurors, all 11 of them, the 12th juror actually had to take the stand on friday due to a scheduling conflict, but what was interesting all the jurors we heard from today, all their questioning they said they were not influenced by becky hill except there was one juror, juror z who had a different response and said, yes, i was influenced by becky hill. meanwhile, speaking of becky hill, she's really at the center of this legal fire storm and here's a little bit from her testimony a few moments ago. >> i usually give a little pep talk to the jurors, it's sometimes hard sitting a long time. but my usual and i do remember saying, pay attention, this is big day today, whatever you need, let mr. billion know and

they'll be glad to get it. >> were your comments in any way phrased in favor of one side or against an other side? >> no. it was not for one side or the other. >> reporter: so, becky hill once again is no longer on the stand, she continued to deny the allegations of jury tampering. today will be an interesting day. the judge is known to rule from the bench, but it could be a day or two before we have a final decision. >> kathy park, thanks so much. time now for today's must be minute. social media platform has blocked searches for superstar taylor swift and a new edition is coming to amazon prime video. let's start in china, the largest property developer evergrande was ordered to liquidate over the weekend after a restructuring deals fail.

urgency for congress. julia ainsley joins me now, what do we know about what's in this proposed border deal? >> it comes with a number of provisions to try to make it harder for migrants to cross the southern border when they present themselves for asylum, a trend bringing more migrants to the united states in the last decade, this would increase the number of people who are working for cbp as well as i.c.e. and asylum officers, it would add more detention beds awaiting court hearings. speed up the asylum process. but all of that hinges on money. these logistics haven't been ironed out and if they don't put enough money towards this i'm told they could end up policies that are unfunded mandates and

put them in a bind. if you can't release migrants, nowhere to put them, just more of backup. >> house republicans are revealing articles of impeachment against homeland security secretary mayorkas, what do we need to know about that. >> reporter: expect fireworks tomorrow at the house home land security committee, will bring articles of impeachment to say that mayorkas is not fit to be the homeland security secretary because of his willful neglect of the border. we don't see smoking guns according to the law. republicans say because of the way border security has been lax under the biden administration he's to blame. expect fireworks. this is all a vote to move the process forward.

it would go before the entire house for a vote, but it looks like it's path to nowhere, unlikely that the senate would vote to convict mayorkas which happens after house impeachment. this may just be a political stunt, but for republicans they say it's important that mayorkas has an ast risk next to his name. now to an update on the recent health concerns on the british royal family. king charles and princess of wales are back at their homes today recovering. meagan fitzgerald joins me now from outside buckingham palace, meagan, what's the latest on the royals? >> reporter: well, princess kate and king charles are said to be doing well, this morning kensington palace releasing a statement that princess kate was discharged from the hospital after that planned abdominal

surgery that was noncancerous, she's back home in windsor recovering her. not long after we heard that kate had been discharged we found out from buckingham palace king charles himself was also discharged from the same hospital where he underwent under this planned corrective procedure for enlarged prostate on friday. his condition is said to be benign. he's also recovering. the palace does say he'll have a shorten recovery period, he has postponed all of his events until after that recovery is done. >> all right, we're glad they're both on the mend. meagan fitzgerald, thanks so much. coming up, a colorado mother accused of murdering two of her

decision, a political decision, on whether to send her back and other considerations about whether she could face the death penalty in the u.s. given that the uk doesn't have the death penalty, that shouldn't be a problem here because colorado also doesn't have the death penalty, but there are a whole lot of appeals that she could file before she extradited back to the u.s. to ultimately face justice, today one step in that long process for this mother of two children, now accused of killing both of these children, to return back to the u.s. to face her day in court. >> josh, thank you so much. an important warning this hour about the upcoming presidential elections and the role of artificial intelligence.

voluntarily released his tax returns, no law requires that disclosure, mr. trump refused to release his, there are bills pending in congress that would require presidential candidates to release their tax returns but so far none of them have passed. >> all right, ken dilanian, thanks so much. let's stay on taxes, may be hard to believe that tax season is officially happening starting today, that means you can start filing your 2023 tax return and hopefully get some money back in your pocket, what's new this year and how can you get the most on your return, sharyn epperson is here to break it down. what are the biggest changes people need to know about before

nice to meet ya. my name is david. i've been a pharmacist for 44 years. when i have customers come in and ask for something for memory, i recommend prevagen. number one, because it's safe and effective. does not require a prescription. and i've been taking it quite a while myself and i know it works. and i love it when the customers come back in and tell me, "david, that really works so good for me." makes my day. prevagen. at stores everywhere without a prescription. you want to see who we are as americans? makes my day. i'm peter dixon and in kenya... we built a hospital that provides maternal care. as a marine... we fought against the taliban and their crimes against women. and in hillary clinton's state department... we took on gender-based violence in the congo. now extremists are banning abortion and contraception right here at home. so, i'm running for congress to help stop them. for your family... and mine.

i approved this message because this is who we are. in today's mental health check a new survey out today shedding new light on the top issues american teenagers are facing, kids and teens aren't feeling positive about how things are going for them, just 31% said they're going excellent or good.

joining us now is head of the research at commonsense research. let's talk about some of these results. only 41% of young people between the ages of 18 to 24 think they'll be better off than their parents when they get older. what are the main issues young people are concerned about? >> well, they're concerned about a variety of things, certainly there's concerns about their economic future and what the future holds for them in terms of opportunities, but one of teens' biggest concern is mental health. teens think this is one of the biggest challenges for people of their age. they want to see adults start taking action and expanding opportunities for access to mental health care, better reimbursements for mental health care and make school a site of mental health care. >> of course, the survey is coming as many are saying we're in mental health crisis in this

country. what issues did they say contributed to that? >> we followed up and we asked them the main issues. the two are the negative effects of social media and bullying, or cyberbullying. the biggest drivers of their mental health. >> you know, we did a segment about third places, many people say kids, teens have three places they go to, home, school and their phones, only 8% of teens said public schools were doing an excellent job for them, how much of a role does the pandemic play into that result noting that so many of these kids were doing school at home and adjusting to going back to in-person learning. >> what we hear that's certainly a concern and the pandemic learning loss comes up for adolescents and their parents. families think about the education -- they're not just

thinking about learning but they're thinking about schools as place of safety, a place where mental health challenges rise to the level and rise to top. they're also worried about teacher burnout and pay. variety of issues parents and teens are pointing to when they express concern about k through 12 education and it's not really meeting their needs right now. >> it's safe to say, kids and teens are maybe more informed than prior generations, right, they're very aware of what's going on, this is a big election year, 60% of kids and teens said politicians and elected officials did not reflect their needs or experiences of young people. which issues would they like to see politicians focus on? >> yeah, i mean, i think young people really, they very much want the things that i think their parents want and what we see in survey, real bipartisan support for young people who aren't necessarily of voting age, bipartisan support amongst

likely voters for at will of investments in helping kids and families have sort of a broader, more stable life. massive support across the aisle for the child tax credit, support for things like, supporting children -- people who provide childcare, other types of policies, lot of types of policies, lot of different kinds of suprt wepo before my doctor and i chose breztri for my copd, i had bad days, (cough, cough) flare-ups that could permanently damage my lungs. with breztri, things changed for me. breztri gave me better breathing. starting within 5 minutes, i noticed my lung function improved. it helped improve my symptoms, and breztri was even proven to reduce flare-ups, including those that could send me to the hospital. so now i look forward to more good days. breztri won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. it is not for asthma.
