sa reef to try to keep his job. >> why some people who initially welcomed the islamic militants are now having second thoughts. i'm good for the time being but i need to let people know that i'm getting desperate. >> desperate pleas from captives in north korea. what message pyongyang is sending by granting these interviews to cnn. in pakistan the prime minister is about to appear before both houses of the country's national assembly. >> prime minister sharif is facing mounting pressure to step down over allegations that last year's elections were rigged. demonstrators in the street have been demanding his resignation. they've been protesting for weeks and getting louder and louder. in islamabad, of course initially we thought he would be talking within the last hour. but we're still waiting.

what is happening there, exactly? >> reporter: rosemary, the joint session is now under way. the prime minister has arrived and actually the interior minister has just started addressing parliament during this hour. a lot of criticism about the interior minister's handling of the situation. not only by some for allowing protesters to get so close into the red zone, so close to those key buildings like parliament, like prime minister's house. but also following the clashes and how they've been dealing with protesters to disperse crowds. violent clashes we saw over the weekend saturday left three people dead. more than 400 injured. we're still not sure about those figures as well because there's a lot of -- there's not much clarity with these figures. people saying that a lot of officials are trying to manipulate figures and not give us the right fig united airlines of those.

yesterday again protesters emboldened perhaps by how close they can get to and around the red zone spread out. we were there to take a look at what happened. hundreds of protesters took over the pakistan television building, taking the channel off-air for a short time. the police were nowhere to be seen. the military has been asked to guard state institutions. soldiers are now marching into the state broadcast area. the protesters have not managed to breach this area before or get so close. many of them, though, clearly happy to see the military, despite concerns by some about military intervention. >> as we're going in, people are patting the military on the back. they're shouting "long live the army." they sealed off the area,

pushing protesters back. police today, it seemed, taking a back seat. but the protesters hadn't tired. from what we can tell, hundreds of protesters charged up from main constitution avenue where the main protest is and the sit-in is. they came here. this area was where police had positioned themselves. police have now stood up in full riot gear and confronted the protesters. the protesters spread out, trying to take more ground. we saw police charging them. but soon they came running back. police fired tear gas. aimlessly into the crowds. so much of it, the air was thick with the milky-white fumes. there was no clear indication of a plan here. some had no interest in facing the protesters.

others calling on their colleagues to unite. many fighting with each other. we saw protesters with chains, handcuffs, and even a noose meant, they told me, for the prime minister. who says stepping down is out of the question. rosemary, as we said, the interior minister is speaking in parliament right now. he's just told this joint session, essential specially called by the prime minister over the weekend that they believe their 8,000 to 10,000 at its peak of protesters out on the streets. that's in the evening, likely when people finish work and come to join the protests. they believe that drops down to no more than a couple thousand in the day. but that only adds to the criticism of why the interior minister can't lead the police to cleave the protesters. police incredibly unpopular, many claim to be politically

affiliated. that's why we're seeing time and again the military coming in to try and negotiate with protesters. >> as we wait for pakistan's prime minister to address the perform at, let's talk about what he's likely to say. we've already heard as you said in your report he has said stepping down is out of the question. so we can't expect any dramatic announcement, perhaps, here. so what is he doing this fall? >> yes, it's interesting. late last night, all the local tv channels were saying, yes, we're expecting him to resign in dramatic fashion in this joint session. not likely, as you say, he has said that he will not go. last night the defense minister spoke to cnn saying that it's absurd to believe that a prime minister who came to governance in a democratic election would step down, with a majority. of course the protesters, let's remind everyone, believe this wasn't a democratic election, that it was rigged, and that

they want to see not only a recount, which they've been asking for a year now, but also a re-election. that's not likely to happen either, rosemary. what we believe and what our sources are telling us, many politicians and people inside the assembly, we think the prime minister will call for unity, he will call for all the politicians to back him and support him. we understand that either that will be done by the prime minister himself or a politician from his party will call to move a motion to do so. >> all right, saims moissin joining us live from islamabad as we await the live address from the joint parliament and wait to hear from prime minister sharif to hear what he has to say. >> there are a few thousand protesters outside and there's 180 million people who live in pakistan. so of course, you know, they are noisy, they're getting a lot of attention. but do they actually represent the vast majority of people?

we should also stress that gnaw wa sharif has obviously been democratically elected in one of the rare corruption-free elections of the year. >> no doubt he's feeling some pressure. >> sure. he obviously was a victim of a coup in 1999. he's very much aware of all of that right now. other news, the u.s. military has carried out an operation against al shabaab militants in somalia. the pentagon would not release further details but a somali governor says a camp where a top al shabaab leader was meeting was targeted by a suspected drone strike among those at this camp, al shabaab's top commander. the u.s. declared the al qaeda-linked group a terrorist organization in 2008. al shabaab is trying to overthrow somalia's government, regularly launches attacks inside somalia and neighboring countries as well. three americans held captive in north korea have urged

president obama to do what he can to secure their release. this is incredible. cnn was unexpectedly granted permission to speak to these three men. >> kenneth bay has been held the longest of the three, since november 2012. the north koreans have been reluctant to negotiate his release. as brian todd reports, our rare access to the three men could signal the start of a new tactic from the north korean leadership. >> hi. >> reporter: kenneth bay asks his family to pray for him. says he works eight hours a day, six days a week, in a labor camp. in an interview with cnn's will ripley bay spoke about his failing health. >> i do have a disorder right now, severe back pain, conditions not doing so well. hands get numb. tingling hands. it's been very difficult sleeping at night. also working in the field every day. >> reporter: bay's family says he has high blood pressure,

diabetes, kidney stones. jeffrey edward fowls, speak fast and nervously, said he was desperate to be released. matthew todd miller looked robotic, said he deliberately committed his drim when he tore up his visa and asked for asylum this year. >> i prepared to violate the daw of the dprk before coming here. >> why now? why would the north koreans put these guys out for interviews now? >> first of all, their motivations is behind this interview has been to gather u.s. attention and then try to pave a way for the high-level dialogue with washington. >> reporter: while the north koreans may view the three americans as criminals, experts say they likely also see them as important bargaining chips. >> as an american there, you can be considered a very high-value target if you are detained by their government. >> reporter: analysts say the north koreans are likely angling for an envoy with huge stature to come to north korea and take these men out. much like bill clinton did in 2009 when he won the release of two journalists.

could bae's case prompt such an event? he's been held almost two years, sentenced to 15 years hard labor. bae says he goes back and forth between a hospital and a labor camp. conditions in north korean prison camps, thought to house more than 100,000 people, were revealed in a u.n. human rights report in february. the report had drawings from former prisoners depicting skeletal, starving people eating snakes and rats, emaciated human remains left for rats to eat. kenneth bay may not be in one of uh those facilities. he says he's the only prisoner in the camp where he's held. >> i've been a presser in in the camp the last year, year and a half. >> reporter: analysts say kim jong-un's ren jet stream doesn't want bae to get seriously ill or die in their custody. >> their negotiating ploy with u.s. is to try to get us to agree to nuclear arms control. to accept them as a nuclear state which we can't do. >> reporter: the white house and state department have responded

to cnn's interviews with the three men, both entities saying they're doing all they can to secure their release. the state department requesting the north koreans pardon kenneth bae and grant him special amnesty and immediate release so that he can reunite with his family and seek medical care. brian todd, cnn, washington. >> bill richardson joins us on the line from chatham in massachusetts. you're a former u.s. ambassador to the u.n., former governor of new mexico, you also spent a lot of time in north korea, four days at least, dealing with north koreans in 2007, trying to negotiate the release of the bodies of american soldiers. you were also there just last year with the chairman of google. you have a lot of experience in dealing with north koreans. and the narrative now seems to be that by parading these three americans with the cameras, the north koreans want to talk. so is it too simplistic to assemble if the americans send a high-level envoy like yourself or bill clinton that the americans would be released? >> no, i don't think that's the case.

it's much more complicated than that. the reason being that the north koreans are sending a signal that they want to negotiate. that's why they're parading the three americans. but i think what the u.s. wants, and i'm not speaking for the u.s. what the u.s. wants is for north korea to take some steps to denuclearize. not to be shooting their missiles. nuclear detonations. so it's more complicated than that, than just sending a u.s. envoy. >> the response from the state department so far has been to request the release of the three men. that seems like pretty weak tea. but is there much more going on behind the scenes that we just don't realize at this stage? >> well, you know, i'm not sure what the administration is doing. i think that this is going to cause -- this interview by cnn is going to cause the administration to make a policy review and try to deal with the nuances of what does it mean to

talk to the north koreans directly at the six-party talks, or bilaterally, just the u.s. and north korea, and what steps need to be taken so that these three are released on humanitarian grounds. >> very quickly, is it possible to separate the fate of the three americans away from the issue of denuclearization or is that just a nonstarter? >> probably a nonstarter. the north koreans want a linkage. and i think the united states -- i think properly so, wants them to take some steps, at least moratorium on detonating any more nuclear weapons. they really have been excessive in their belligerence and their use of these weapons to scare the entire world. so i think something must be worked on. i think it will. so i saw these interviews as a good sign that may start a process of negotiating the rightful release of these three

individuals who are obviously suffering. >> sure. bill richardson, thank you so much, we appreciate that. the british prime minister wants to take bold steps to safeguard his country from islamist militants. after the break we will show you what he wants to do. also ahead, a celebrity hacking scandal is shaking up hollywood. how you could be putting your own secrets at risk. without even knowing it. in your skincare? but do s neutrogena naturals. a line of naturally derived skincare with carefully chosen, clinically proven ingredients and no harsh chemicals. healthy skin-starts from within. neutrogena naturals. hello! three grams daily of beta-glucan... a soluable fiber from whole grain oat foods like cheerios can help lower cholesterol. thank you!

we turn to the growing threat from isis and other jihadist groups. british prime minister david cameron is proposing new laws to fight islamic extremism. the measures would increase air travel checks and allow police to seize passports of suspected terrorists. the uk wants to stop radicalized britons from traveling overseas to join isis, then return home and carry out attacks. >> mr. speaker, me are proud to be an open, free, and tolerant nation. but that tolerance must never be confused with a passive acceptance of cultures living separate lives or people behaving in ways that run completely counter to our values. >> critics say mr. cameron's proposals are vague and they might just be impossible to enforce. u.s. air strikes continue to

target isis positions near iraq's mosul dam. meantime, the u.n. plans to investigate alleged atrocities by isis in both iraq and in syria. anna coren has details on the reign of terror isis has imposed on the city of mosul. >> reporter: when isis brazenly took control of iraq's second-largest city in june it sent shock waves throughout the country and the region. alienated by the maliki government and persecuted by his security forces mosul was fertile ground for the militants. but nearly three months after isis raised its black banner over the city, residents describe heavy-handed oppression and brutality under the rule of these islamic extremists. when they first came to mosul they told us they would protect us and that this was a revolution, explained this man. too afraid to reveal his identity. but after the people got to know

isis they felt hatred towards them. the people of mosul now live in fear of arbitrary arrests, punishment, and death. with eyewitness reports of a young man accused of adultery publicly stoned to death. conditions in the city are rapidly deteriorating. with short ans of power, food, and medicine. "we are afraid to even go out," says this woman, who must wear a veil and be accompanied by a male relative. "the best freedom is to stay inside your house. we have known islam for years but we have never seen anything like this." it was in mosul isis leader al baghdadi made his appearance as the self-declared khalif. to others his vision bears no resemblance to his beliefs. "1,400 years we have believed in islam and we have never seen this. how is it possible they came up with a whole different interpretation of islam? this is a stupid interpretation."

he adds that isis forces them to swear allegiance or face death. for those escaped like these businessmen who spoke on the condition we wouldn't show their faces it's been torture with family and friends still in mosul. "i speak to my family on the phone. they say, we wish we would die, only to be free. we never wanted to live under their control. all the people of mosul are now imprisoned." they believe there are people planning to resist isis. last week a group claiming to be in armed opposition to the militants posted this video. but the businessmen say isis and its supporters are too powerful and can't be defeated without outside assistance. a move that would involve enormous risk. "we fear they will use the people of mosul as human shields," says this man. "we need the international community to help." but if no one comes to their rescue, they morbidly believe

the only safe haven for the people of mosul is death. anna coren, cnn, erbil, kurdistan, iraq. we'll take a short break. a british couple is arrested after pulling their cancer-stricken son out of the hospital. a lot more on that up next.

welcome back to cnn. the parents of a 5-year-old boy with cancer have been detained in spain. they told a spanish judge they refuse to return to britain. >> authorities say they withdrew their son from a british hospital last week without authorization to seek treatment elsewhere. >> reporter: it's a nightmare for any parent. their 5-year-old son suffering

from brain cancer. the family and doctors disagreeing about treatment. according to a video the boy's father recorded for youtube. >> they looked at me straight in the face and they said, with his cancer, which is a medulo blastoma, it would have no benefit whatsoever. i went back to my room and looked it up. and the american science and french science and switzerland science said it would be very beneficial for him. >> reporter: proton beam treatment is a type of lower-dose radiation therapy used in cancer treatment, which targets the tumors but does less damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. the hospital says, we are aware of the comments made online by his father throughout asher's admission we have had conversations about the treatment options available to him and we had offered the family access to a second opinion as well as assistance with organizing treatment abroad. asher's parents took him from

the hospital in britain on thursday. the family, including the boy's six siblings, left the country, triggering an international search. the parents were arrested over the weekend at a hotel in malaga, spain. they say they went there to sell their vacation home to raise money for the proton therapy for their son. >> it's the best treatment. >> reporter: now english police are facing questioning about whether they overstepped. >> medical experts were saying if he didn't get the care that he needed, there was a potential threat to his life. faced with those circumstances, i make no apology for the police being as proactive as we possibly can to actually find asher and ensure that he gets the help he needed. >> reporter: appearing at a madrid court monday, asher's parents face possible extradition back to great britain. britain authorities haven't confirmed what charges they will face but say cruelty could be one of them. parents now battling in court as their little boy continues his fight against cancer. samuel burke, cnn, london.

>> it is a really tough call. you've got the parents obviously very concerned, them to make sure they've got the right treatment for this little boy. then of course the hospital and the police caught in the middle. it is difficult. >> i wonder what the legal grounds are. what are the rights of the parent when it comes to deciding the care of the children who you are essentially responsible for? >> absolutely. >> who makes that final call? the doctors make it, do you make it, where does it lie, what do you do as a parent? >> i don't want to have to confront that. >> sure. we'll take a short break. when we come back, rebels are making gains in eastern ukraine and ukraine is blaming russia's open aggression. we'll have the very latest in a live report from kiev. plus, anger over israel's plan to annex more land in the west bank. cnn talks to some of the people who stand to lose the most.

welcome back to our viewers in the united states and all around the world. thanks for staying with us. i'm rosemary church. >> i'm john vause. it's time to check the headlines

this hour. pakistan's leader is appearing before both houses of his country's national assembly. prime minister sharif is facing mounting pressure to step down over allegations that last year's elections were rigged. despite weeks of protests on islamabad streets mr. sharif has steadfastly refused to resign. british prime minister david cameron is proposing new laws to fight islamic extremism. measures would increase air travel checks and allow police to seize passports of suspected terrorists. the uk wants to stop radicalized britons from traveling overseas to join isis then return home to launch attacks. ukrainian president petro poroshenko is accusing russia of open aggression as pro-moscow forces make big gains against ukraine's military in the east. moscow warned ukrainian forces to retreat from civilian areas. let's get the very latest on what's going on there. live in kiev, rosa, ukraine's

defense minister said russia was launching this great war, that thousands of people could die. the russian president said russian forces could sweep into kiev in a few weeks. nato is following what's called a rapid reaction force. this seems to be escalating on a number of fronts. how does this de-escalate, where's the off-ramp here? >> yeah, when you see a conflict intensifying like this, you want to look for any kind of opening. even the smallest indication that perhaps there's room for a negotiated solution or a compromise. and that sign perhaps came yesterday in belarus. that's where all sides of this conflict met. ukrainian officials, russian, european officials meeting with representatives of the rebels from southeastern ukraine. and it looks like the rebels have eased off their position and their demand for independence in southeastern

ukraine. essentially yesterday in belarus, representatives of the rebels saying that they'd be fine with a guarantee of some sort of autonomy and self-determination in southeastern ukraine. and in return they would be satisfied and they would support a sovereign and united ukraine. that seems to be a position that would match what moscow wants. what russian president vladimir putin wants. which is some sort of autonomy for the ethnic russian regions in southeastern ukraine, under what would be a federalized ukraine. it looks to be potentially some sort of potential for compromise. but there wasn't any kind of breakthrough yesterday. the talks picked back up later this week. we'll see what happens there, john. >> is kiev likely to accept that kind of compromise deal that essentially it's kind of just changing the names here? they would be part of ukraine but they would be fairly autonomous and russia would

still have all the influence there. merely a change of tone coming from those republics. is this the kind of deal leaders in kiev there are likely to accept? >> at this point, john, there's no indication that's a deal they're going to accept. it could change in days to come. but for now, they want to transition to what would be a centralized government. in the meantime, on the battlefield, things escalating as well and all sorts of indications that the momentum is shifting towards the rebels. ukrainian forces suffering heavy losses. another loss came yesterday, a critical airport in luhansk falling to the rebels. petro poroshenko, the ukrainian president, continuing to sound the alarm, accusing russian forces and russian tanks of supporting the rebels. here's what pore shen cohad to sayed. >> translator: direct and open aggression has been launched against ukraine from a neighboring state. this has changed the situation

in the zone of conflict in a radical way and raises new and more difficult questions for our security bodies. >> of course, moscow continues to deny that russian troops, russian tanks, are on ukrainian soil. but whatever the case, ukrainian forces were ordered to leave that airport yesterday. that airport now in complete control of the rebels in a conflict whereby all measures, the rebels are winning at this point. >> with that in mind is there linkage between the success of the rebels on the battlefield in the last couple of weeks and those talks in mincing? does that mean pro-russian separatists have the upper hand in these negotiations? >> i think when you look at the battlefield, certainly it looks like they have the upper hand. and i think we have to take a close look at the critical port city of mare uppoll. for the past three or four days pro-russian rebels have been stationed just outside of mare i don't know poll, seemingly

poised to attack. they haven't done so yet. and perhaps that's an indication that they're using that particular region as leverage on the negotiating table. so what happens on the battlefield certainly has a lot to do with what happens on the negotiating table in days to come. >> thank you, live from kiev, appreciate it. the violence is taking a heavy toll on the residents of eastern ukraine. and as civilian casualties mount many are turning their anger not toward russia but toward their own president. the report from donetsk. >> reporter: petro pore shen cowill have a hard time winning back hearts and minds in this city. as the people of donetsk sweep up the debris of their homes and livelihoods they are hardened against a president they say is killing his own people. "we are ukrainian but they kill us," this man says, "so we probably need our own country

because these people in kiev, they are not brothers for us." the shells hit these homes days ago. but the tears are still fresh. [ speaking foreign language ] >> translator: we live on the ground. it's worse, so hard for two weeks, especially for 27th, 28th, 29th. only today it's quiet. >> reporter: two people were killed outside this block of flats last wednesday. one of them was a 50-year-old woman, the other a 34-year-old woman. her husband, who won't talk to us, he says he's in shock, managed to make it to the cellar with their little child but she didn't have the time. this is a story that repeats itself over and over in dozens of apartment blocks with civilians being killed by the constant shelling around donetsk. the city's trauma hospital is filled with the civilian

wounded. shrapnel embedded in the flesh and bone of market sellers' legs. the broken lips of pensioners far too old to run. "there was one war and this is the second war," this old lady tells me. "i was born in 1940, in world war ii. i will probably die before this war is over." valentina popova in the next ward lost her leg and arm to indiscriminate artillery shells. switching to the ukrainian language, she makes a heartrending plea to the president. "we used to dance, sing, do everything in ukrainian," she says. >> poroshenko, mr. poroshenko, please listen to us. why don't you understand your people? be a man. be human. please stop your aggression. stop this war." but there is little sign of that. this once-thriving city is now half-empty, its railway station bombed. the forces unleashed by this

conflict greater perhaps than mr. pore shen cocan control. cnn, donetsk, ukraine. the united states is calling on israel to back off plans to annex palestinian land in the occupied west bank. the plan is for the israeli government to seize some 400 hectares in the bethlehem area. >> israeli officials tell cnn the move was linked to the killing of three jewish teens in june. but it has enraged many palestinians. ben wedeman has more from the west bank. >> reporter: for the past 42 years, mahmoud has tilled this land near bethlehem on the west bank, growing vegetables in the summer, olives in the winter. the farmers in this fertile valley work in the shadow of the

burgeoning jewish settlement, one of the biggest in the west bank. sunday israel declared almost 1,000 acres in nearby areas would become state land. making way for the construction of yet another settlement. israeli officials tell cnn the decision is linked to the kidnapping and murder of three vo israeli teenagers in june, although the killers have yet to be found, the trial yet to be held. the decision affects land on the margins of this valley. some cultivated, some not. 66-year-old mahmoud doesn't see why he and other farmers should bear the consequences of the cripes of others. "we're the neighbors of the israeli people, we share water and air and everything, we have to find a way to live together." the civil administration which rules over disciplines in israeli-controlled areas of the west bank has posted no trespassing signs in the valley.

"i saw the sign," says this 80-year-old, "no trespassing. but they're lawyers and if the landowners defend their land, israel continue confiscate it." farmers have 45 days to appeal the israeli decision. haji seems largely unconcerned, too busy pulling weeds from his pumpkin patch. above, construction continues at a feverish pace. the united states describes settlement expansion as counterproductive and has called on israel to reverse its decision to appropriate even more west bank land. it's hard to understand how settlement expansion and land appropriation is going to help the peace process. but then again, it's been a long time since there's been a peace process. a representative of the group

peace now is baffled by the government's latest move. >> it's a crazy idea. in my view, it's a collective punishment, not only to palestinians, but also to israelis, that is actually killing our chances to get to peace someday in a two-state solution. >> reporter: the spokesman for the israeli prime minister declined to appear on camera to comment on the decision to declare nearly 1,000 acres state land, while some government ministers have criticized the decision. the fruits of this decision may prove bitter for all. ben wedeman, cnn, on the west bank. a short break but still to come on cnn, as the battle to contain western africa's ebola outbreak rages, we go to liberia's ground zero deep into the quarantine zone. @j

liberia's president says the ebola crisis there remains grave with a health system that's under stress. >> all nonessential government workers in liberia have been ordered to stay home for another month. this is the second month this has happened. to try to contain the spread of the virus. now for this exclusive report, traveling deep inside liberia's quarantine zone to where the current outbreak began.

>> reporter: a health team are on their way out. gloves, gowns, bleach going with them. the locals here call this ebola country. for months the team have been called out every day to suspected cases. today, we're going with them. a woman suspected of ebola has died and they're going to bury her. did to come anywhere near the body we have to suit up as well. first the team leader sprays her house with bleach. then and only then can the rest of the team enter. as the body is carried out, the family mourns from a distance. this is the closest they'll get to good-bye.

everything that has come in contact with the body or with any surroundings that the deceased woman might have touched before she died has to be thrown in and has to be disposed of. it is the only safe way. from the burial, the team traveled to zango town. half the population here have either died or fled. many not even stopping to carry their belongings. why are these houses abandoned? johnson told us he lost his eight-month-pregnant sister, his brother, niece, and many others. too many to name. >> the house right behind me, they died. seven of them died. >> reporter: we go further into

the jungle. through a quarantine gate into nearby bacuda. some 8,000 people live here. no one has been allowed to leave. this community has been completely isolated. of the over 1,000 deaths from ebola in liberia, 20% have died right here in this town. the town chief tells us they're worried if the virus doesn't kill them, hunger and disease will. this is what it's like across the area, locked in, afraid, and alone. sometimes the county health workers are called in to investigate a case and when they get there they discover it's one of their own. this clinic had to be locked up after all the health workers in it contracted ebola. only one of them survived. >> it's heartbreaking. sometimes we go there with

everyone ebola, nothing else. >> nightmare. >> yes, yes. >> reporter: in spite of the risks and the fear, he and his team say they'll continue to do whatever they can. >> stay at home or running away is not a solution.

welcome back to cnn. the fbi is looking into

allegations that nude photos of hollywood celebrities were leaked online. >> and stars, including jennifer lawrence, have reportedly contacted authorities. cnn's michelle turner has the latest on the investigation and the stars' reactions. >> reporter: hacked celebrities are firing back after a slew of nude photos of jennifer lawrence and other celebrities appeared online sunday night. the photos were leaked on the website forchan and were allegedly obtained through a massive hack. a publicist confirmed the photos' authenticity and released a statement saying the hack was a flagrant violation of privacy and added the actress plans to seek legal action. other celebrities also spoke out, including horror movie actress mary elizabeth winstead, who lashed out on twitter saying to those of you looking at the photos i took with my husband years ago in the privacy of our home, hope you feel great about yourselves. knowing those photos were deleted long ago, i can only

imagine the creepy effort that went into this. feeling for everyone who got hacked." hackers also posted photos allegedly showing olympic gymnast michaela aloneny, victoria justice. although michaela, grande, and justice have denied the photos were real. this isn't the first time celebrities have faced a hacking scandal of this kind. in 2012, a man was sentenced to ten years in prison for hacking into the accounts of scarlett johansson and mila kunis and posting their private pictures online. michelle turner, cnn, new york. this latest hacking scandal shows just how vulnerable our online data is. last hour i spoke to jeffrey carr, a cyber security expert, about how you can help protect yourself. >> hackers that are interested in doing this don't really care about the average person. they target celebrities,

politicians, because of the name value. so having said that, if you do have sensitive information online, valuable information that you cannot afford to lose, take it offline. because nothing is completely safe. >> so that's really the only way. you're not going to tell us, come up with a more complicated password, look at other ways to protect yourselves? you just say, remove it, just keep it on your computer but don't store it? >> i personally don't even keep it on my computer. the few things that i know are very valuable, i have on an encrypted flash drive, like a usb stick. and that way, when i need to use it i can plug it into my laptop and access. when i'm not using it, it is not on my computer, it's not in the cloud, it's nowhere. somebody would have to break into my house in order to get it. >> a reality is that most people are going to keep storing stuff out there because that's what happens with photos and then of course you have streaming. and even if people delete photos, this i found extraordinary, even if they

delete their photos from their phone it's apparently too late. those pictures have already been uploaded. but how long do they actually stay there and remain vulnerable to hacking? >> there's really -- that's hard to say, it really depends on the service provider. most likely they'll remain there. >> the stolen nude pictures of celebrities all over the internet, of course. you can see it trending on twitter. what happens when people click on these links, click for those photos? what happens to their computers? are they compromised? >> they could be. that's a great point. this is one of the reasons why i think you need to be very careful about not falling for traps online. in the case, for example, one of the actresses, jennifer lawrence, i think most people are cooperating with not posting those pictures online. however, you may see tweets or other links that say, click here to see nude photos of whomever.

and that's often a trap. so when you do click it, your computer is now infected and hackers can take control over that computer and remove pretty much everything that's on it. >> a word of warning, don't go looking for the nude pictures. >> don't do it. some of you, it's too late. >> yes, it is. you're already infected. your computer, i mean. hello, dolly. hello, karen mcginn necessary with the details. >> we have our latest tropical storm. this one has developed in the atlantic basin, specifically the gulf of mexico, which is included in the atlantic basin. here's the gulf of mexico. this is the coastline of mexico. and this system looking a little more impressive. but still poorly organized. they sent hurricane hunters in to check it out and it looks like it has strengthened to tropical storm intensity and its name is dolly.

typically we start to see the peak of hurricane season across the atlantic basin that first week of september. so here we are and presently there are tropical storm warnings out for this central coast of the east coast of mexico. well, over the next 24 hours we're expecting this wind field primarily right around tampico. it isn't necessarily going to be the wind that's going to be problematic although you could see downed trees and power lines. it looks to be the primary rain event that could produce mud and land slides. some areas predicting over 120 millimeters expected. take a look at these pictures out of china. in beijing, rain is on the way. there you can see some light precipitation. but in a four-tier system there's a yellow alert for potentially heavy rainfall, 100 to 200 millimeters expected. now, in southwestern china, chong king, we are looking at

between 10 people killed there, possibly more, about 30 reportedly missing. mudslides, landslides, large boulders on the roads, it closed some highways. as much as 300 millimeters reported there and a raging river from all of that rain produced these pictures. back to you guys. >> those images from chongqing, thanks. you have been watching cnn's special coverage. i'm rosemary church. >> i'm john vause. stay with us, "cnn newsroom" is up next for our viewers internationally. >> if you are watching in the united states, "early start" begins after this short break.
