>> that is illegal. the normal person cannot inflate the value of properties in order to get a benefit. >> reporter: amid clashes monday, trump reportedly acknowledged he had a role in valuing his empire. he said, quote, i would look at them and maybe have some suggestions. when asked by the attorney general whether he ever thought the values were off or inaccurate. he responded, yes, on occasion, both high and low. the judge already found trump and his company liable for fraud. so this trial, anne-marie, will detemine how much trump will have to pay in penalties. the attorney general's office is seeking $250 million and to bar trump and his children from doing business in new york. anne-marie? >> all right, chanel. shanelle kaul in new york. thank you. now to the israel/hamas war. today marks one month since the horror began when terrorists descended on the israeli state

around the world, including in the u.s. and is rile where angry citizens are calling for the regular ig nation of benjamin netanyahu, many of them calling him responsible for the security issues. you heard a moment ago from u.n. secretary-general antonio guterres. he was formally launched an aid package to assist the gazan people. the number of aid trucks, still far below the number before the attack. >> just a drop in the bucket. doug williams in tel aviv. thank you, doug. well, demonstrations over the israel/hamas war turned deadly in los angeles. police say a 69-year-old jewish man died from a blunt force head injury sustained during an altercation at a pro-israeli, pro-palestinian demonstration. a suspect struck the victim with a megaphone, causing him to hit his head on the ground. he was taken to the hospital where he died the next day. the medical examiner's office

the brennan center for justice predicts 2024 will be the very first presidential election for more than one in five local election officials. >> we're certainly seeing an exodus of election officials across the country, and every election official that i've talked to is aware of it and really making plans and trying to mitigate that loss of institutional knowledge. >> reporter: former washington secretary of state kim wyman has also served at cisa. it will dispatch ten election security advisers nationwide to help more jurisdictions identify cyber risks like ai spreading false information. >> so if something happens, how are you as a local election official going to respond? how are you going to communicate with voters that the video they just saw isn't true? >> what are you most worried about in 2024? >> acceptance of the results. >> reporter: a reason why elections officials are doing
