mass car at a historic black church. the admitted killer says he shot the church goers to start a race war. >> nikki haley as started a debate to remove the confederate flag from the grounds. >> reporter: with the debate flairing, nikki haley looked to ease tensions. >> we are here without ill will to say it's time to remove the flag from the capital grounds. >> reporter: flanked by democrats and republicans, haley tried to unify her state as the flag controversy threatened to tear it apart. >> the murderer says he hoped his actions would start a race war. we have an opportunity to show not only was he wrong that just

the opposite is happening. >> reporter: several g.o.p. hopeful praised haley's move which gives them cover on an issue they struggled to navigate. lindsey graham said this. >> there is a confederate war memorial out front and an african-american memorial. >> that works for you? >> reporter: but today he said it is time for the flag to go. jeb bush says that we acted, removing the flag from the state grounds to a museum where it belongs. marco rubio who opposed the move in florida in 2001 this weekend said it was a state issue. >> that is up for the people of south carolina to make. >> reporter: as did rick santorum. >> this is a decision that needs to be made in south carolina. >> reporter: and mike huckabee dismissed the issue. >> everyone is being baited with this question as if it has to do

with running for president and my position is it does not. >> reporter: others received money from earl holt the leader of a white supremacist group linked to dlon roof. all three candidates are donating it to emanuel church hope fund to help the families. there was a tweet from mitt romney. he condemned the confederate flag on south carolina's capital grounds, creating a conundrum for republicans in an early primary state where the republican base determines the viktor. and the confederate flag debate has a top lawmaker in mississippi calling for changes to its state flag. the confederate battle emblem is incorporated into the top left

corner of the mississippi flag. the state's house speaker, philip gunn says the confederate flag has become offensive and needs to be needs to be removed from the state flag. wal-mart tells cnn it will stop selling confederate flag merchandise in stores and on its website. reuters is reporting that sears says it will remove sales of confederate flag merchandise by third parties on its online marketplace. sears does not sell confederate flags at its stores. president obama spoke candidly about race in the wake of that racially motivated action in south carolina. >> the president used the "n" word to explain there is more to be done about racism. >> reporter: the president with one word in a comedian's garage

for a podcast hits more bluntly than any speech. >> and it's not just a matter of it not being polite to say nigger in public that's not the measure of whether racism still exists or not. it's not just a matter of overt discrimination. societies don't overnight completely erase everything that happened 200 to 300 years prior. >> reporter: the shock value lost on no one but it's the white house denies that was his intent or that it was even planned. says it just came out. >> the president was merely making an argument in an informal setting. >> he had to have known that this was going to get a reaction? >> i don't think he was surprised by that. but i do think tx>f it has prompted careful, can of what he said. >> reporter: it's the latest of several strikingly emotional statements after the charleston shootings. >> communities like this have

had to endure tragedies like this too many times. i refuse to act as if this is the new normal. >> reporter: this may be the first time since the trayvon martin shooting that the president spoke directly personally enough that it was controversial. >> if i had a son he would look like trayvon. >> reporter: but president obama has received criticism for often trying to carefully temper his words strike a perfect balance. he campaigned on trying to move the national conversation beyond race. >> is there not a black america and white america and latino america and asian america, there's thenitis of america. >> reporter: as for the surprise of hearing the president say the "n" word he did write it in his book "dreams from my father" on how that word effected him growing up and shaped his private views on race more of which we're hearing now.

some analysts are saying it is about time we are hearing president obama speak so directly on this issue. and of course not everybody is happy he decided to use the word and some people are surprised that people are surprised by it. but it's hard to imagine that the president didn't think of the provocative power of using that word. this is a word that we don't feel comfortable using when we're talking about that word but it's it's clear that this kind of discussion is exactly what the white house wants. michelle kosinski cnn, the white house. an end could be in sight for greece's debt crisis. leaders are make slow progress to a deal after wrapping up an emergency summit in brussels on monday. >> greece submitted a new proposal over the weekend that has received some support from international creditors, but

angela merkel remains cautious. >> translator: what greece has submitted is progress but what is also clear from the discussions is there is still a lot of work to do and the time we have for it is very short. >> and for more on the greek debt crisis we want to bring in linda live from athens greece. time is fast running out with that june 30th deadline approaching. what is likely to be in that final deal and whatever all parties decide in the end a final agreement has to go to the greek parliament for ratification. that could take time. where do things stand right now? >> well at the moment we're looking at a euro group tomorrow where we're likely to have some kind of more solid decision about what the proposals are and what they entail and that is likely to be taken a an eu

summit on thursday and friday to get a final agreement. and once we have that a new round of possible complications begin. then this new agreement will have to be taken first to the greek parliament something that we expect could happen as early as this weekend. and only if it's ratified there, then it will be taken back to europe where a number of national parliaments may need to ratify a new agreement. this is one reason why it's possible that an extension may be given. it's something that is very much talked about just to avoid some of these procedures. of course time really is of essence. greece's bailout ends at the end of this month on the 30th of june and greece would be without a bailout and without access to the markets and without access to external funding. this is what everybody is trying to avoid and it's the time that greece has to pay the imf the

money it owes. if it doesn't greece could be defaulting. by now we have seen so many rounds of talks. the optimism is there that we are getting close to a solution that would avoid the possibility of a greek default. >> that is what most people want but it's there is a possibility of an extension here. so perhaps that june 30th dead live is not a real deadline. is that what you are suggesting? what if they don't agree by that date? nobody really wants to see greece default here. >> well this is exactly what the next question will be even if there is -- if we make it through this deadline and there is an extension or new agreement, something we will know in a week's time then the problems don't end there, the new deal from what we understand comes with a lot of austerity measures something

that the greek government was completely against. it was voted in to avoid to austerity. but you know we're looking at pension cuts. we're looking at v.a.t. rises. we're looking at a number of unpopular measures as a lot of the ruling politicians may not accept. so what we're likely to see is a number of political developments in the short run and also in an extension if that has been given. but of course the greek people have very clearly said that this is what they want. they want to stay in the euro at least four in five greeks according to the polls have very clearly voiced they believe that greece belongs in the euro. thousands were behind me right outside parliament last night saying that greece belongs to europe and one in two said they will do whatever it takes to make sure they do stay in europe. >> the pressure very much on greek leaders to ensure that

they cut some spending and they cave to some of the requests certainly from germany. linda, while we're talking, we want to have a look at what is happening at the german stock exchange. trading has only just begun but people are going to be watching this closely to see what sort of impact these talks and the possibility of some sort of deal being made here. but as we heard from linda this there is a june 30th deadline. but there will be an extension to try to avoid any default on the part of greece. we'll be watching that closely. u.s. and chinese officials are set to meet for annual talks. but the timing let's call it complicated. the u.s. suspects that china is behind a massive hacking

. welcome back everyone. samsung issued a formal and public apology to south koreas for not stopping the mers outbreak. there are 175 cases of mers in south korea. 27 of those who got the disease died. about half of the illness have been linked to this one hospital. >> translator: our samsung medical center was unable to stop the mers infection and its spread and caused too much suffering and concern to the public. i bow my head in apology. >> kathy novak is following this story from seoul. she joins us now live. tell us more of what jay y. lee had to say and why culturally in

south korea this is considered quite significant. >> reporter: culturally it is a big deal rosemary. we saw this public apology, the deep bow and the fact that it is coming from the top of samsung, one of the major companies in south korea, considered corporate royalty, and the fact it is coming from lee is because his father the head of samsung has been in samsung medical center since he suffered from a heart attack last year. his son is saying he understands some of what the families are going through. but not to the extent of people who lost loved ones. and he offers deep condolences for those losses and apologies to anyone who was effected. we know almost half of the infections can be linked to samsung medical center and promises more will be done to overhaul the operations there once the worse of the mers outbreak is over.

>> does it seem that people are accepting of this apology? you have 27 deaths as a result of all this. >> reporter: it seems that they are, errol. it is in the early stages. we just heard this apology today. but some of the reaction is that the apology needn't necessarily come from samsung and some are calling on the government and president park geun-hye for the government's handling of the outbreak. the president acknowledged there were insufficiencies in the way the government handled it but not in this public and formal way we saw the samsung acting chief do it. it's really now the government that is at the heart of all this and that is where the apology should be coming from. >> we will see if there are more apologies to come kathy novak live for us in seoul. a u.s. senate committee is

washington for talks aimed at improving trust and cooperation. but hanging over their heads are accusations from the u.s. >> they blame china for a government computer breach that could affect the personal data at 18 million current, former and prospective federal employees and that number is expected to grow in the worst security breach ever against the u.s. government. we want to bring in david mckenzie live from beijing. as we mentioned, u.s. and chinese officials meet this week to discuss trust issues and u.s. officials plan to raise concerns about hacking. how is china likely to react? >> well china has reacted today again in their regularly scheduled briefing moments ago. and their reaction is predictable and standard with previous reactions. they are basically saying that

the issue of cybersecurity is something that needs to be dealt with through cooperation, communication and they squarely blame the u.s. for cutting off that communication by accusing china of these alleged crimes that china denied it has anything to do with this latest hack which has federal government in the u.s. and certainly china is saying there is very little proof and these accusations are, quote, irresponsible. >> and why do you think we are seeing a reluctance on the part of the united states to blame china publicly for this cyberbreach. >> most of the blame has come from the legislators and unnamed sources to cnn and others. there is on some level an

attempt to place the blame on china. but the u.s. justice department and the white house hasn't weighed in on this issue which indicates potentially that the investigation is still ongoing or they are trying to gather the evidence to allow them to accuse china. and there is the u.s./china relationship which is complex. and in these talks in the u.s. they will be dealing with issues like iran north korea, economic, bilateral trait. all of that on some level overshadows in importance the hacking issue. maybe officials are trying to downplay it at this time. >> we will be watching those talks between officials from the united states and from china very very closely. david mckenzie reporting live from beijing. thank you. the u.s. releases a highly

nikki haley says it is the right thing to do after the shootings at the charleston church. nine people were killed. a leading isis operative has been killed by a u.s. drone strike in iraq. the pentagon says -- died in mosul a week ago. he had been a battlefield commander in iraq and worked throughout north africa and the middle east. >> he was linked to the attack in benghazi, libya. a u.s. ambassador and three others were killed in that attack. the pentagon says that the death reduces the ability to recruit from north africa. after years of occupation the town of tal abyad is lib rate. >> and cnn was able to get into

tal abyad. awra damon has more. >> reporter: we travelled to the town of tal abyad with the ypg, the kurdish fighting force that is currently in control of the town. and in the brief hours we were there we were able to get an insight into just how chilling life under isis really was. no one is around to tell us who was held here. or what horrors transpired at the tal abyad prison. there is a stench of sewage. on one solitary confinement cell's floor, splotches of red. a scrap of paper, an idea about what is considered a crime under isis. in this case taking god's name in vain. among the many draconian directives of isis rule. another forbidden act, smoking. this is the first time in two years that cigarettes are being sold in the streets of tal

abyad. this man was just saying and this is the first shipment that he's brought in. he's saying that there is a cage at the round about down the street that they would put people in for punishment for doing things like selling cigarettes. we're taken to see it and told the story of a man who spent three days here for playing cards, also banned. the streets of tal abyad very clean. isis ordered perpetrators of crime to pick up trash. at one of the isis security offices the ominous black flag dominates every wall lest anyone forget who is in control here. and we find a handful of blank pads of official forms on an office shelt. shuttered store fronts spray painted red with a word meaning it was claimed as property as

the islamic state. >> there is a group of men back there who don't want to appear on camera because they have relatives living in the isis stronghold of raqqah be they were telling how they didn't dare stand up to them or speak out but they chose to continue living here because what they have here that was everything that they possess in life and trying to survive as a refugee would be just too difficult and all of them who we were speaking to then pointed to this round about. this was called the round about of death. it was here that isis carried out its executions. the remnants of life under isis plagued this town where it seems that reality was worse than what most could ever imagine. isis may have been driven out of tal abyad for now. but the fighting across syria is still far from over and the future of so many still remains uncertain. >> and that was arwa damon

reporting exclusively from tal abyad in syria. coming up tomorrow, arwa speaks with young and old about the physical and psychological scars left behind by isis. >> reporter: a certain unease emanates from adults anger in their voices their answers short and sharp. this man was forced to purchase from isis black clothing for his three girls. the three saying they were scared. and they are enjoying being outside without head scarves and they want to go back to school. >> join us tomorrow for this reporting from inside syria only here on cnn. a woman and child were killed in the attack on afghanistan's parliament on monday.

the video shows how large the explosion was from a car bomb outside the parliament building. 28 people were wounded. six taliban fighters tried to storm inside but security forces held them off and all six were killed in that fire fight. a taliban spokesman says that parliament was targeted because the defense minister was to be introduced to lawmakers. a highly anticipated u.n. report finds israeli and palestinians may have committed war crimes during the gaza war last year. the independent commission calls the loss of life heart breaking and says that children on both sides were savagely effected. >> reporter: this report takes all sides to task. the israelis hamas and other militant groups and the palestinian authority. the report says that israel and

hamas violated international law during the 50-day war and may have committed war crimes. investigators found that israel used precision-guided bombs to target residential buildings and israel used high-explosive shells in dense urban areas, greatly increasing the risk to civilian lives and the final number of civilian casualties. more than 2,100 palestinians died in the fighting and more than 70 israelis died in the fighting. and hamas and other groups fired rockets and mortars at civilians and used tunnels to increase the fear which may have constituted war crimes and condemned the palestinian authority for reports that are inadequate despite violations of international human tear law. the israelis issued a

pre-emptive report a week ago which followed that israel followed international law in the way it conducted the war. now the spokesman for the ministry of foreign affairs says the report fails to recognize the difference between israel's moral behavior during the operation and the terror it confronted. the palestinian leadership praised the report. we urged the international community to recall that the only true path to peace lies in ending the israeli occupation that began in 1967 and in ending crime and the impunity it continues to perpetrate against our people. the report does not say that either side committed wash crimes but they leave it to the international criminal court which has an examination going on now. an annual festival in china is sparking international

an annual dog meat festival in china has sparked an international outcry. while millions of chinese are increasingly keeping dogs as pets others see them as a delicacy. cnn reports on this year's festival. the images you are about to see are disturbing. >> reporter: as a market in southern china a woman hacks at chunks of meat on the table. our cameraman moves in closer to find a pile of dead dogs freshly

blow torched on the ground. the locals lash out at the media attention and continue to show their hostility. [ speaking foreign language ]. >> reporter: for these residents -- killing dogs and selling the meat is a way of life that is celebrated annually at the dog meat festival and this year it's as popular as ever. eating dog meat is the same as chicken or beef. more people have come. we sell what people want. while consuming dog meat is not common across all of china in some provinces it's considered a delicacy. and the government has not stopped customers from arriving in droves. eating dog is good for your health.

dog lovers love your dogs but you can't stop us from eating dogs. but some people are desperately trying. animal rights activists want to put a stop to what they say is a cruel event. this 65-year-old spent more than a thousand dollars to save the lives as 100 dogs but that is a drop in the ocean. at the moment we don't have the ability to change people's habits. this is the government's responsibility, isn't it? if the government had animal protection laws the people would change. but there's no way the few of us who come here every year to buy dogs can change people's habits. joining the fight to save man's best friend is ricky gervais who has been promoting the international campaign to stop the festival which has received 4 million signatures. it's misleading to calling it a

dog meat fest call. it should be called a dog torture festival. and with these images of dogs crammed into cages awaiting their fate. many hope that the days of the festival are numbered. anna koren, cnn, hong kong. 102 people are dead in indiana yeah from toxic moon shine. >> illegal liquor is common in indian and often contains ethanol. the heat is taking a toll in pakistan's largest city. >> more than 2300 are being treated for heatstroke in the city's largest hospital. power outages are keeping many people from cooling their homes
