. a nation in disbelief. sorrow and anger overflow in turkey after two bombings leave 95 people dead. a live report ahead. spiraling violence in israel. where is this going? we bring you the latest from jerusalem and the kremlin claims to focus its attacks on isis. russian officials meet to discuss russia's operations in the region. from cnn world headquarters in atlanta, i'm george howell. this is cnn newsroom.

good day to the viewers in the united states and around the world. we begin in turkey where it is 11:00 a.m. in that part of the world. it brings sorrow and anger after two bombings that rip through a peace rally. it happened in ankrah. it wounded more than 200 others. some are blaming the government for failing to keep citizens safe. in the meantime, investigators are trying to figure out who was behind the explosions that happened seconds apart. turkey's prime minister is blaming terrorists. listen. >> a terrorist is a terrorist. whoever commits the attack would commit a crime against humanity. we will keep investigating this attack. at the moment, the organizations that have the capacity for performing these such attacks are clear. the islamic state of iraq and syria, isis, the kurdish workers

party, pkk, the marksist lebanon party of turkey and the liberation party, bhkpc. >> let's go live to an cara. standing by for us live. arwa, we see you're near one of the areas where the blast happened. >> reporter: that's right, george. we're actually trying to get up to the area where it did happen. because at this stage, people are trying to lay flowers and carnations in front to pay their respects. and they tried to get in through the other side. the police blocked them off. they fired some sort of gas into the air, forced the crowds to disperse. they're made up of some opposition mps, including those from the pro-kurdish party who saw some of their members killed

in yesterday's attack that took place about 24, 25 hours ago. the attack site was just down the road over here. we're going to have to see if they'll be letting police through or not. you can see actually quite a sizable crowd there. coming back throughout the entire country, we're expecting demonstrations. we are expecting people to come out and be expressing their solidarity with those who died with what happened. the turkish prime minister saying yesterday that this was reportedly, initial reports are the work of two suicide bombers. no claim responsibility just yet. this has served to polarize what is already a very polarized country at this stage, especially when it comes to the politics. you have the government, the prime minister saying that there's been an attack on the state. but the main pro-kurdish

opposition party leader saying this is the responsibility, this is the work of the state even if the state did not have a direct hand in this kind of violence. they say that the state had a responsibility to try to protect the population. arwa damon live for us in ankara. as you mentioned, you see these live crowds. if we can go back to these images, this large gathering of people coming together to pay their respects to the dead as arwa played out, these attacks polarizing an already polarized society. for more perspective, let's turn to the director for international security at the asia-pacific foundation and now joins us live via skype from london. john, good to have you with us. you just heard from our correspondent on the ground there talking about these images that we see today happening right now as people come together to remember the dead.

given turkey's role, though, in the fight against isis and the fight against the pkk, is there a feeling that turkey has become a more attractive site for retaliation? >> george, unfortunate live, because of all the different internal international threats that turkey faces, it very much now is in the crossfire of a lot of challenges. of course, isis is there, turkey has finally allowed the u.s. to use its air bases to launch strikes against isis installations. there are also the internal components and battling against the pkk, a recent cease-fire broke down. we have to also understand that this is a complex country with a lot of internal social challenges. an attack that took place in ankara will create social and political repercussions. in the buildup to the elections, it could further damage the social fabric of turkey.

>> we heard from the turkish president calling for people to come together in solidarity. given what we've seen as you heard from our reporter a minute ago, the society already polarized, what do these attacks accomplish? >> weshlgs unfortunately, as is always the case when there's an act of terrorism is the innocent civilians are primarily the focus. this is what happened yesterday. this was supposed to be a peace rally. this was supposed to be about bringing turkey together to show unity amongst the turks and the kurds and the other ethnic groups. this attack has very much ripped that apart. it's very important to cool heads prevail that there is a proper investigation, that the culprits are identified quickly and also then brought to justice. because there's still some time before the elections and the people have been warning that an attack like this could take place. there's still an evaluation about could more have been done.

there are a lot of question marks that remain and unless there are answers, public anger could potentially grow. >> you mentioned the elections where kurdish party did relatively well and another round of elections -- wanted to dig into a deeper issue. they're a nation where east meets west. given the violence that we've seen, why would the internal factions resort to domestic terrorism to prove their point? >> keep in mind, that the turkish state has been battling the group, the pkk for a long time. pkk has been wanting a separate state, especially in southern parts of turkey. there was a cease-fire. as soon as that broke down, the worry was that the tension it is. and you have the political component of the kurdish party, the hdp which did very well in the last elections, it prevented from the party having an overall

majority for the first time in over a decade. this is why we're going back to the polls now. but the fact remains that this is a country that is unfortunately, for getting its history set by the person who transformed turkey in the post world war i period. made it a modern country, brought east and west together. unfortunately, some people are forgetting the history and the positiveness that was created and that hurts the country overall. >> we've been talking about the storied and rich history of turkey, how it's playing o into what we're seeing today. john, thank you for your insights as we see the live i am angs at this hour as people mourn the dead. an israeli police officer was wounded in an explosion near the west bank at a checkpoint leading in jerusalem.

the blast happened after police officers were alarmed by what they described as a woman driving a car in a suspicious way and then they pulled her over. this comes as israel's prime minister orders police reinforcements in jerusalem amid growing violence on the ground. covering it all is our aaron mclaughlin with details. good to see you, erin. what more do we know about this car explosion? >> hi, george. we're getting new details into the sort of incident that authorities here have been very worried about. israeli police stopped a 31-year-old palestinian woman from jericho in her car near a check point in the west point. the woman exited the vehicle and the device went off severely injuring her and lightly injuring a police officer. they brought her to a hospital for treatment. they say her car had israeli license plates.

they say she intended to drive to jerusalem. bringing back bad memories for people here, car bomb attacks were -- in gaza, israeli military conducted two air strikes targeting hamas. a weapons manufacturing facility. gaza city fire departments say that one of the bombs dropped in an open field causing a house to collapse. in that house was a 35 year hold pregnant palestinian woman and a 3-year-old child, killing both of them. injuring three. now, israeli military says the strikes were in response to rocket fire from gaza, a rocket fired into southern israel. it was intercepted by the iron dome. it was the second rocket attack in gaza toward israel in recent days. george? >> erin, what measures are authorities putting in place given the recent violence we've

seen week after week? >> they're increasing security, george. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu saying they're going to call up 1300 additional border police reservists after a string of what has been characterized as mostly lone wolf attacks to take place throughout israel as well as the west bank, as well as in jerusalem. that is in addition to already heightened security in cities throughout israel as well as the west bank. they've called in four additional israeli military battalions there. the fact of the matter is, israeli authorities say it's very difficult to prevent and deter the kind of lone wolf, so-called lone wolf attacks that they have been seeing. so it's unclear what morris rail i and palestinian officials can do to stop the bloodshed. some people hearsay they're preparing for what could be the new norm. >> cnn's erin mclaughlin live

for us in jerusalem. covering the event. erin, thank you so much for your reporting. on to afghanistan. the taliban claiming responsibility for a suicide attack on foreign troops. it happened in central kabul. the bomber targeted forces riding in a convoy. at least seven people were wounded in the incident. the united states says it will make condolence payments. it's an air strike that was a mistake when the doctors without borders hospital was hit. the official says the amount of the payments has not yet been determined but will go out to those wounded in the attack and to the families of those killed in that attack. the hospital bombing is calling greater attention to the afghan military and continued need of help from forces. will afghan forces be able to sustain themselves without support from the united states and its troops. cnn's senior diplomatic editor

nic robertson spoke with the afghan defense minister to get some answers. >> president obama is considering drawing down u.s. troops. do you still need u.s. troops here? >> when we look to the situation today, there's a lot of progress. we're taking over most of it on our shoulder. now the afghan soldiers are fighting everywhere against the international tourists. one thing is clear, we're now fighting on behalf of all international community with this international tourism, but this is the time that we will continue to need shom level of support that will enable us, particularly enable us that will help us to really address that. nobody can fight alone with global terrorism. >> what wha areas doos the army have the greatest needs at the moment? >> i think the greatest need as you mentioned, that we need the time that we have to build our

air capabilities. >> how come the afghan national army were not able to hold kunduz? >> we should still make an investigation. it was not the failure of the army. so it is not that the army was defeated in kundus. it's because they were infiltrated inside the city like any terrorist organization. when the fighting started, it was the issue of the civilian casualties. you have to be careful not to do something which creates that bigger problem. >> some of the people of kunduz think the government of taliban come in. >> this is part of the propaganda. part of the issues that -- how to create differences among the people, make them suspicious of each other. make them suspicious of the government. make them suspicious of the government and also the

international partners. >> what are the lessons that the afghan army has learned this year? >> the biggest lesson we learned this year is in areas where we stick together with the people and the people were helpful and harmonized, it was mostly very successful. in areas where there were differences, in competition among them and they competed with each other, it was the worst. >> what can you do about that next year? >> we already sought in our political leadership, we sought that. the unity is critical for the success of the country. >> with only a few days left before the cnn democratic debate, there's new speculation about whether u.s. vice president joe biden will join the race for president. will he or won't he? we look into it next. plus, a bombshell accusation into the investigation of the 2012 benghazi terror attack. the latest as cnn newsroom continues.

and we'll have to use like double! maybe more! i'm going back to the store? yes you are. dish issues? get cascade complete. one pac cleans tough food better than 6 pacs of the bargain brand combined. cascade. now that's clean. only a few days left before the cnn democratic debate and

the democratic candidates for the u.s. presidential nomination, they are getting ready. but there is a burning question. could joe biden eventually be among them? sources close to the u.s. vice president say that he is spending the weekend deciding whether or not to make a run for the white house in 2016. cnn's chris frakes takes a closer look. >> vice president joe biden spent the last week proving how popular he is with key democratic groups, a status that could come in handy should he run for president. he was the keynote speaker at a dinner for the largest gay rights organization. >> there's still those shrill voices in the national political arena trying to undo what has finally been done. but they're not going to succeed. don't worry about it. >> he slammed republicans for their immigration positions in an appearance before a latino political action committee. >> these guys don't remotely speak for america. the american people are so much better. they're so far beyond.

they are so, so, so much different than these guys appealing from everything to homophobia to this notion of -- they're like the know nothing party. >> hillary. >> sources say privately, biden is leaving the impression with some allies that he's leaning toward a run and they say he'll likely announce his decision within the next two weeks. meanwhile, the candidate to beat, former secretary of state, hillary clinton, continues to attack left on the keystone pipeline, wall street reform and the pacific trade deal. >> what i know about it as of today, i am not in favor of what i have learned about it. >> clinton is trying to blunt the rise of bernie sanders and draw distinctions between herself and president obama. if biden runs, he would likely do the opposite. >> when the president and i took office, we knew we had to make some tough and incredibly

unpopular decisions. >> that was cnn's chris frakes reporting from washington, d.c. of course, cnn is hosting that first debate among the democratic u.s. presidential candidates. our anderson cooper will moderate. don lemon will pose questions submitted from facebook. our live coverage starts in las vegas, nevada on tuesday in the u.s. on the east coast. you can watch the entire replay at 8:00 p.m. wednesday in london, 9:00 p.m. central european time. only on cnn. there's also a replay wednesday at 7:00 p.m. in hong kong, 8:00 p.m. in tokyo. only on cnn. there are new accusations of partisanship in the congressional probe into the 2012 attack on benghazi, libya. a former staffer with the committee investigating the incident says it was politically motivated. major bradley tells cnn the group trained its sights almost exclusively on former secretary

of state hillary clinton. clinton's campaign responded saturday by calling benghazi panel a sham. hillary clinton claims that investigations into the benghazi attack have concluded that neither she nor anyone else did anybody wrong but is that true? our jake tapper checks the facts. >> hey everybody, jake tapper here for cnn state of union and fact check.org with our weekly fact checking of the presidential candidates. hillary clinton was on the "today" show recently. take a listen. >> there have been seven investigations led mostly by republicans in the congress and they were nonpartisan and they reached conclusions that first of all, i and nobody did anything wrong but there were changes we could make. >> so is that true? did the reports conclude that "nobody did anything wrong?" . no we're not going to go into every detail of the reports but let's take a look at three of the reports. the state department set up an independent review panel at that released findings in december 2012.

they say that the responsibility for the attack rests "solely and completely with the terrorists." however, this report also said ", systemic failures in leadership and management deficiencies at senior levels won two bureaus of the state department resulted in a security posture that was inadequate for benghazi and grossly inadequate to deal with the attack that took place." a few days r, another committee issued a bipartisan report and also found security quite lacking. they said the temporary diplomatic facility in benghazi was, quote, particularly vulnerable and the decision to leave the facility open was a grievous mistake. the house select committee on intelligence issued their report in november 2014. they focused on the intelligence community like the cia, not on the state department. but they did have a lot of conclusions that are relevant to secretary of state hillary clinton. their report states that "security personnel testified

that state department diplomatic security agents repeatedly stated they felt ill-equipped and ill-trained to continue with the threat in benghazi." they also felt any u.s. official responsible for personnel there had sufficient warning of the deteriorating security situation in benghazi and the demonstrated intent and capability of anti-u.s. extremists in the region to attack western and specifically u.s. targets. in the aftermath of the first report, four state department employees were put on administrative leave but eight months later they were reinstated and reassigned to other jobs at the state department. no other disciplinary actions have been taken. no reports have specifically singled out hillary clinton as having failed. but did they point out that senior officials at the u.s. state department working under hillary clinton were responsible for inadequate security at benghazi, leaving those individuals particularly vulnerable to attack?

yes, they did. a remind to all the candidates, you're entitled to your own opinions, not your own facts. i'm jake tapper, cnn fact check.org. you're watching "cnn newsroom." russia continues to engage isis targets in syria. as it does so, it's having talks about safe flight operations with the u.s. details on that in a live report ahead. plus, north korea's controversial for sure but not much known about it. you'll look at his life to rise and power as news continues this hour on cnn international and cnn usa.

welcome back to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. you're watching "cnn newsroom." good to have you with us. i'm george howell. the headlines this hour. turkey's prime minister declared three days of mourning after a deadly attack on a peace rally in ankara. at least 95 people were killed when explosions tore through the crowd. they happened seconds apart. more than 200 people were wounded in those incidents. an israeli police officer was wounded by an explosion just outside jerusalem. officers were alarmed by what they described as a woman driving in a suspicious manner on sunday. the blast happened shortly after police pulled the woman over. at least seven people were wounded in afghanistan when a suicide bomber attacked foreign troops in a convoy that happened in central kabul. the taliban are claiming responsibility.

the united states says it will make condolence payments to the victims of the kunduz hospital bombing. the doctors without borders hospital was hit in afghanistan in an air strike that the united states calls a mistake. the u.s. defense official says the amount of the payments has not yet been determined. russia says its latest round of air strikes in syria hit isis targets very hard. russia's defense ministry says they've engaged in at least 55 isis targets since friday and have destroyed what it says are the main and largest isis logistics centers. also on saturday, the u.s. and russia held discussions about safe flight operations in syria. the pentagon says the 90-minute video call was productive. covering is all is ian lee who joins us from cairo, egypt with more. what more can you tell us about this video call and the conversations between the united states and russia?

>> reporter: george, it lasted for about 90 minutes. it's been described as professional but narrowly focused discussing ways to make sure that there isn't an air incident over the skies of syria. the last thing the united states wants is one of the pilots to be ejecting out over syria. also, russia wants to avoid that as well. we're hearing from the russian state news agency that the russians have a draft document for the americans. details of that document are still unknown. but there has been discussions over the past couple of weeks to make sure that nothing does happen. right now the united states has a rule where warplanes won't go within 20 miles of a russian jet. if there is a russian jet in the area, they'll abort the mission. a few missions have been aborted. they'll also be discussing making sure the russians don't

infiltrate or violate territory airspace. that's happened a number of times. that is not just a concern for the united states and turkey, but also nato. a lot of things to discuss there. >> turkish president even made it clear that russia needs to be aware of that crossing into its airspace. ian, what more can you tell us about russia's attacks on isis targets. they're pointing out they hit many of the major logistical centers. what more can you tell us about that? >> reporter: yeah. those 55 targets include command and communications weapons depots, also going after their bases and training facilities. this all according to the russian defense ministry. and these targets were really up and down the western part of syria, hitting damascus, aleppo,

and also going after isis stronghold, this according to the russians. now, the russians have been accused of also going after anti-regime fighters as well, fighters that threaten the regime of bashar al assad, the united states criticizing them on that. but russia says that they're there to fight isis and they have carried out quite a few strikes, although many of those against other anti-regime fighters. >> as russia increases its strikes to support bashar al assad, at the same time, the united states is suspending its program to arm and train syrian rebels. what's the response given that? >> reporter: yeah. they have this program, half a billion dollars in the hopes to put roughly 3,000 fighters into the battlefield this year.

when the general who is leading that program talked to a senate committee in the united states, said they only had four and five fighters in the battlefield, one senator called the program a joke and since then it has been suspended. the u.s. now focusing on getting weapons to the syrian arab coalition, in the northern part of the country. they're hoping to replicate the advantages that the kurds have had. the kurds have taken the initiative, combined with air strikes by the united states to make gains against isis. they're hoping to replicate that in the northern part of the country sand ideally take -- cut off the supply routes for isis to take control of the border completely with turkey so that foreign fighters and supplies cannot get to isis. >> a lot of moving parts in this situation. we talk about the political landscape. but at the same time we cannot forget the fact that there are

so many people, ian just trying to flee that region to find safer ground. cnn's ian lee live in cairo, egypt. thank you for your reporting. moving ton to iran. a state funeral was held for a high ranking general. it happened thursday outside aleppo. this funeral procession for hussein ham danny was held a few hours ago in tehran. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah khamenei said he -- the man was reportedly advising the syrian army in the fight against isis when he was killed. the death will be a setback, a psychological blow for the fighters supporting the assad regime. north korea celebrated the 70th anniversary of the ruling party with a huge celebration that lasted all day through the night with a military parade with hundreds of thousands of

marchers to a rainy nighttime joout rally. all happened with north korea's leader watching and said the country is prepared to defend itself. we take a closer look at kim jong un, north korea's controversial ruler. >> totalitarian, dictator, owner of a nuclear arsenal of unknown size. approximately 100,000 political prisoners. this is the leader of north korea, kim jong un. very little is officially known about kim jong un. he was born sometime in the early '80s. the third and youngest son of kim jong-il, the second leader of north korea. he died in 2011. the young leader accompanying his father's casket as north korea grieved. then soon after, debuted as north korea's leader. new and young.

there were signals of a different era for north korea. kim jong un allowing his voice to be heard on state-run television. embracing modern images of the west. his own wife appearing in western suits allowing in new music, borrowing heavily from western pop music and embracing an unusual friendship with former chicago bulls basketball player dennis rodman. kim jong un has continued north korea's military first policy. the same cycle of threats and provocations, missile launches, political and cultural oppression of his people. kim jong un is proving to be blood thirsty purging his closest advisers, even his own uncle. like his father, he doesn't take lightly to any mocking. >> i have a gift for you. >> the movie, the interview, parodied him on film. shortly before the release of the movie, sony pictures was the

subject of a massive hack and data drop. u.s. intelligence blames north korea for the cyber attack. if there was any hope the young leader might be different from his father, that is gone. >> that was cnn's kyung lah reporting for us. you're watching "cnn newsroom." justice or else. that was the theme of the rally commemorating the 20th anniversary of the million man march and thousands of people gathered on the national mall and the u.s. capitol for saturday's big event. our mary maloney has this story. >> for 20 years since we tried to rock the vote, they've been trying to hide the vote. >> organizers used the 20th anniversary of the million man march in washington to call for justice for groups they say have been marginalized. michael brown, sr., whose son's death sparked the ferguson, missouri's protests spoke. >> i want to thank everyone for all the support. >> as well as family members of trayvon martin and sandra bland.

the theme was justice or else. louis farrakhan said young people are the future of the cause. >> what good are we if we don't prepare young people to carry the torch? >> no stranger to scandal himself, farrakhan called out political leaders for corruption and dishonesty. >> if you love god with all your hearts, mind and strength, nobody could give you enough money to make you betray yourself. >> he said the presidential election and the amount spent on lobbyist gifts were a farce. >> there's no government on this earth, not one, that can give the people what the people desire. >> justice organizers of the marseilles is a birthright of

derek van dam with more on that. >> this isn't a major threat for the country, including mumbai. it could bring a significant amount of rainfall to that area, just kind of causing more of a nuisance, more than anything. where the path of the storm is going is the interesting part. i'll show you what i'm talking about, george. take a look at this. this is tropical cyclone 3. doesn't look like much now. you can see the tops of the thunderstorm clouds indicated with that shading of orange and red. that's the cloud tops. it's around 45 kilometer sustained winds near the center of the storm. projecting out, it takes a westerly path and it's traveling towards the coast of amman. that would be for later in the workweek and it could very well strengthen into a proper tropical storm. something that would be classified at 65 kilometers per hour or higher. here's the storm system. the outer bands of this will bring rainfall to mumbai.

like i said, maybe between 50 to 100 millimeters of rain in some of those locations. you can see the rainfall accumulation picking up across the region. the general movement of this tropical cyclone is in a westerly fashion. so moving away from the west coast of india. here's the current storm forecast winds. you can see anywhere between 30 to 40 kilometers per hour. i'm going to take you to the other side of the world. this is south america. of course, we've got a beneficial rain coming. if you're tuning in this morning from chile, thank you for your viewership. look what's headed your way. a late season storm. remember, we were in the southern hemisphere here. this was into the spring months across this part of the world. so this is good news for santiago considering that it's surrounded by the andes mountains. a lot of the snowfall that's supposed to form over the winter months has just not done so and

and the united states now a source of inspiration for a halloween costume. a mexican company has designed the mask in the image of joaquin "el chapo" guzman, the drug lord who staged a spectacular escape from a mexican maximum security prison in july. >> translator: he became the most popular man in mexico the mask maker says. the most wanted but the most popular. that's why we thought of creating the mask. it's been one of the top news stories in mexico this year. the company had designed masks of presidents and other characters. but the one of the cartel leader has rapidly risen to the top in terms of sales. >> translator: we've had the kind of success we didn't expect, he says. we knew it would sell well, but we didn't expect to sell so many so soon. >> mexican attorney general said thursday that 34 people linked

to the escape have been arrested, including a pilot accused of helping him. she didn't disclose any information about where the drug lord might be or whether they're getting any closer to catching him. the mask maker says the costume reflects the criticism mexicans have against their government in a country of spectacular escapes and where impunity remains a challenge. >> translator: we mexicans make fun of ourselves he says. we're also making fun of the government because it's the second time guzman escapes. >> reporter: the company produced 2,000 masks and costumes just to begin. they're now making an additional 1,000. they have been distributed throughout mexico and the company is planning to sell the costumes in the united states where the news of the escape shocked mexicans and others alike. rafael romo, cnn atlanta. randy quaid is making headlines again but not for his latest movie role.

a nation mourns. turkey pace homage to the dozens killed in two bombings in ankara as the government vows to hunt down the people responsible. israel on edge. a bombing near jerusalem and rockets fired at the country's south. we'll have the latest on the deteriorating situation there and will he or won't he? democratic candidates as they prepare for the next debate. the question, will joe biden run? we look into it. from cnn world headquarters in atlanta, i'm george howell, this is "cnn newsroom."

good day. welcome to our viewers here in the you state and around the wofrld. we begin in turkey where there is outrage and sorrow that continues to grow for the day after two explosions that tore through a peace rally. protesters blame the government for not preventing the blasts. the twin explosions that killed 95 people and wounded more than 400. police used tear gas to break up a crowd of protester. arwa damon was caught up in the scuffle. >> everybody is -- [ coughing ] further back. exactly what no one wanted to see happen here. all they wanted to do was lay flowers down at the scene of where the attack took place.

we are being fired on and we're also being pushed back at this stage as well. >> let's go live to arwa damon in ankara. arwa, i can see you're in a better position. can you tell us what you went through with that large crowd behind you as well. >> reporter: well, the clip that you were airing earlier, that happened very close to the scene of the attack where pro opposition mps and the leader of the pro-kurdish opposition party were trying to get through to lay carnations and commemorate those who had passed away in yesterday's horrific attack. they were eventually after that scuffle let through. not before tempers flared. behind me, one of many demonstrations happening throughout the country, mostly leftist parties. speaking right now is the leader of the pro-opposition kurdish

party. people have been calling for standing in solidarity amongst themselves but also a lot of chance against the government of the president here. people calling the state murderous and saying it will be held accountable. there will be continue to be widespread concerns about how polarizing this attack is going to be when it comes to turkish society because it has already been at odds and at this stage, we do not know how this is going to be playing out. the government is saying that it was the work of two suicide bombers, no claim of responsibility. just yet at this stage. but the turkish prime minister yesterday did say that they had caught two other suicide bombers, one in ankara, one in

istanbul. if they had intelligence, the people wanting to carry out the attacks trying to do so according to the prime minister from northern iraq into turkey. this attack yesterday's attack, george, was the deadliest in turkey's modern history. the deadliest single attack. the country reeling from all of this. of course, we have those very critical parliament errie lxs coming up november 1st. a lot of concern on the run-up to that and what it's going to do to turkish society. of course, a lot of concern understandably amongst the people what the future is going to hold and whether or not they can feel safe. this shattered the country and shocked the people and broke so many people's hearts. caused so many families and people to lose loved ones. no one knows at this stage what the future is going to hold. >> arwa, as you pointed out, it's already a polarized

population. now this attack at a peace rally. arwa damon live for us in ankara. thank you for your reporting. i spoke earlier with someone regarding whether the attacks will unify the nation or cause more discord. take a look. >> unfortunately, as it always the case, the innocent civilians are primarily the focus. this is what happened yesterday. this was supposed to be a peace rally, supposed to be about bringing turkey together to show unity amongst the turks and the kurds and the other ethnic groups. this attack very much has now ripped that apart. it's very important that cool heads prevail. that there is a proper investigation, that the culprits are identified quickly and also brought to justice. because there's still some time before the elections and the people have been warning that an attack like this could take place. there has to be an evaluation into the security, could more have been done. there are a lot of question

marks that remain in this incident. unless there are answers, public anger could potentially grow. >> that is the situation in turkey. we will continue to follow it. now on to afghanistan. the taliban are claiming responsibility for a suicide attack on foreign troops. it happened in central kabul. the bomber reportedly targeted forces riding in a convoy. at least seven people were wounded in the attack. more violence in israel. this time it was an israeli police officer wounded in an explosion near a west bank checkpoint leading into jerusalem. the blast happened after officers were alarmed by what they described as a woman driving in a car in a suspicious way. they pulled her over. this comes as israel's prime minister orders police reinforcements in jerusalem amid growing violence on the ground. covering it all is erin mclaughlin live in jerusalem this hour. good day to you. what more do we know about this car explosion? >> reporter: hi, george.

the latest incident is the kind of thing authorities here have been very worried about. israeli police saw a suspicious vehicle near an israeli checkpoint in the west bank. they said the 31 year 'ol palestinian female driver from jericho was looking very nervous. they stopped her. when she got out of the vehicle, they say a device inside the car detonated severely wounding her as well as lightly wounding an israeli police. they took her to a hospital for treatment. but they say the car had israeli license plates. they say it was on its way to jerusalem. now, overnight in gaza we're also hearing from israeli air force saying they targeted two hamas weapons manufacturing facilities. gaza city fire department, though, saying one of the bombs fell in an open field causing a nearby building to collapse inside that building. a 35-year-old pregnant woman and her 3-year-old child, both of

them died. three were injured. now the israeli military saying that those strikes were in response to rocket fire from gaza towards southern israel overnight that had been intercepted by the iron dome. the second such rookt tack in recent days. george? >> erin, what measures are being taken to provide more security given the violence we've seen? >> yesterday, prime minister benjamin netanyahu announced he would be calling up border police reservists, about 1300 of them to be deployed in cities throughout israel as well as jerusalem. this, in addition to what was already a heightened security presence for additional military battalions have been sent into the west bank. the prime minister, netanyahu saying that the measure was meant to prevent and deteriorating the kind of attacks we've been seeing of late. israeli authorities saying that many of these attacks are

so-called lone wolf attacks. very difficult to predict. very difficult to prevent. so people here are on edge. now, also yesterday we understand that u.s. secretary of state john kerry had two separate phone calls, one with prime minister netanyahu, the other with the president of the palestinian authority, mahmoud abbas. according to the readout from the state department, he said that the u.s. will remain engaged in efforts to restore calm. he reiterated the importance of con seming violence and upholding the status quo of the holy site known as a mobile sanctuary and to juice jews as the temple mount. a key source of tension -- clearly, the u.s. secretary of state john kerry trying to weigh in to calm things down. >> erin, when it comes to calming things down, we've been talking about the cases of

violence week after week after week. is there a sense on the ground that this violence will continue to escalate? >> reporter: well, that certainly is the concern, george. israeli authorities characterized this as a wave of violence and it is unclear if it's going to escalate or persist if this is simply the new norm. also, unclear what else can be done on the part of israeli and pol stinian authorities to stop the bloodshed. >> erin mclaughlin live in nurse lem. erin, thank you so much for your reporting. a state funeral was held in iran for a high ranking general. it happened thursday outside aleppo. this funeral procession was held a few hours ago in the capital city of tehran. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah khamenei said the general attained the honor of march tar

come. he was reporting -- he says it will be a setback for the fighters supporting the assad regime. now, russia in the mix. it continues air assault against isis targets inside syria. its defense officials and the u.s. have been talking about safe flight operations. the pentagon said progress was made during saturday's 90-minute video conference. there has been concern over keeping coalition planes safe from russian fighter jets. to talk more about this, ian lee on the ground in cairo, egypt. ian, good to have you with us. what more can you tell us about the conversations between united states and russia? >> reporter: george, this conversation was described as professional and narrowly focused discussing air safety over syria. we're hearing from russian state

media that the russians had a draft document that they're proposing to the americans to help keep the air over syria clear and incident-free. this is a very important issue as both countries are running missions over the country. they have had a few incidents where the united states has had to abort missions because of close calls whenever an airplane comes within 20 miles of a russian aircraft. they abort. there's been a few of those. one thing that both countries want to avoid is an incident in the air between them where aircraft is destroyed or even if a pilot has to eject over the country and really as we saw with the jordanian pilots who was captured by isis and brutally executed. something both countries want to avoid. there have been incursions by the russians into turkish airspace as well.

this is something they're also discussing. there's been a few of those and that's been concerning for turkey, for nato, for united states. they want to prevent that. they have accused the russians of doing it on purpose. although the russians have denied that. russian planes have also followed u.s. drones. that's another point of concern. really a lot to talk about and a lot to cover in these meetings. >> ian, what more can you tell us about the russian air strikes? russia saying that it hit some 55 isis targets and hit major logistical centers. what more do you know? >> reporter: well, these 55 targets, they say, encompassed command and communication, ammunition depots as well as bases and training facilities of isis. this according to the russians. this took place all up and down the western syria hitting

damascus, aleppo, also hitting the isis strongholds of rocka, but the russians have been accused of going after anti-regime fighters, nonisis fighters. at times isis has been able to take advantage of the strikes against anti-regime fighters and gain ground. the united states saying that it has -- they have helped but the russians have a clear objective. their man on the ground is the regime leader of bashar al assad. they want to see that he remains in power. so some of their strikes have been against anti-regime fighters that have posed a real threat to the regime and while they say their main target is going after isis, the united states has disputed that. saying that really their goal is to prop up that regime. >> it is a complicated situation there. cnn's ian lee covering it for us in cairo, egypt. ian, thank you so much for your

reporting. you're watching "cnn newsroom" and still to come, a bombshell at the nation in the investigation into the 2012 benghazi terror attacks. we have the latest coming up. plus, with only a few days before the cnn democratic debate, there is new speculation about whether this man will join the race for president. that's ahead as newsroom continues. more "sit" per roll. bounty is two times more absorbent.

so one roll of bounty can last longer than those bargain brands. so you get more "life" per roll. bounty. the long-lasting quicker picker upper.

there are new accusations of partisanship into the probe of the 2012 attack on the u.s. consulate in benghazi, libya. a former staffer for the committee investigating says the probe was politically motivated. the group trained its sights almost exclusively on former secretary of state hillary clinton. this comes on the heels of controversial comments made from the house majority leader, kevin mccarthy. it seemed to link numbers with the committee's efforts. democrats jumped on mccarthy's comments saying they're on a witch hunt designed to ruin the political prospects. mccarthy denies those claims. >> benghazi is not political. it was created for one purpose

and one perpendicular only. been very clear about this. don't use politics to try to change this around. >> worked for nearly a year on the committee before he was fired this summer. he plans to file a lawsuit for wrongful termination. the democratic candidates for u.s. presidential nomination. they are getting ready for tuesday's cnn debate. but the burning question now, could joe biden eventually be one of them? sources close to the u.s. vice president say that he is spending the weekend deciding whether or not to make a run for the white house. cnn's chris frakes takes a closer look. >> vice president joe biden spent the last week proving just how popular he is with key democratic groups. a stat thaus could come in handy should he run for president. he was the speaker for the human

rights campaign. >> there's still those shrill voices in the national political arena trying to undo what has finally been done. they're not going to succeed. don't worry about it. >> he's blamed republicans for immigration position this is an appearance before aya latino political action committee. >> they don't remotely speak for america. the american people are so far beyond, they are so, so, so much different than these guys who are appealing to everything from homophobia to this notion of they're like the know nothing party. >> sources say privately biden is leaving the impression with some that he's leaning toward a run and they'll say he'll likely announce his decision within the next two weeks. meanwhile, former secretary of state hillary clinton continues to attack left on key

issues, including the keystone pipeline, wall street reform and the pacific trade deal. >> what i know about it, as of today, i am not in favor of what i have learned about it. >> clinton is both trying to blunt the rise of rival bernie sanders fueled by the progressive link and draw distinctions between herself and president obama. if biden runs, he would likely do the opposite. >> when the president and i took office, we knew we had to make some tough and incredibly unpopular decisions. >> that was cnn's chris frats reporting from washington, d.c. and of course, cnn is hosting that first debate among the u.s. democratic presidential candidates. anderson cooper will moderate and don lemon will take questions via facebook. it comes live from las vegas, nevada and it's on the east coast. if that's late, you can catch it 8:00 p.m. in london on wednesday. justice or else. that was the theme of the event

commemorating the 20th anniversary of the million man march in washington on saturday. thousands of men, women and children gathered on the national mall in the u.s. capitol. they called for unity and reform on social issues affecting the african-american community. speakers included louis farrakhan who organized of the original march back in 1995. social justice was also a hot topic for the world's most powerful economic minds in lima, peru at the imf summit. christine lagarde says the money will spring directly from policies that address climate change and inequality. >> sound a bit funny when the imf works on inequality. sounds a bit funny when the imf works on gender and on women's participation in the economy. sounds a bit funny when the imf worries about climate change and determines that the excessive

subsidies for oil for instance is something that should be transitioned towards a better use of public funding. well, we believe, i believe very strongly that it is micro critical and it deserves the brain power and the attention of the imf. >> they also said the world's rich countries would probably be able to reach a goal of providing $100 billion to help poor countries to combat climate change. ten days after a massive landslide struck southern guatemala, the death toll has risen to 271. government officials say many, many more people are still missing. much of the small village was covered after heavy rains triggered mudslides. and from landslides to flooding, we have some extraordinary images from southern italy. our meteorologist derek van dam is here with us to talk more about that. >> george, we saw this coming together for extremely strong

thunderstorms in italy. particularly the sicily, region. they developed with quite a vengeance. take a look at the visuals out of the area. extreme flooding from a lot of rain in a short amount of time. washing cars, vehicles as well as even some motor homes down this stream and this torrent much water. getting to my graphics, you can see that four tornadoes actually developed across sicily. that footage, by the way was from a town over the northeastern sections of this island. as we look across the rest of italy, i should say, we had impressive rainfall totals far exceeding what we should typically see for the month of october. and to the campo bass a region. look at this. wind gusts reported as well. it's thanks to this huge area of low pressure that continues to go across the adriatic. even north of rome as well.

we've had a very wet and active weather pattern across that region. low pressure system continues to move eastward. it's bringing the possibility of severe weather with it. this time across the baltic state. look at the eastern sections of greece as well as western turkey and southern bulgaria. that's where we have our bull's-eye for large hail today. the possibility of tornadoes and waterspouts. of course, a waterspout is just a tornado that forms over the ocean or the water. you can see on our satellite imagery, the thunderstorms that developed and caused havoc across southern italy, they have continue to move eastward moving north and east of the athens region. they'll continue to move into the western sections of turkey over the next six hours. look out for impressive rainfall totals across that region and strong gusty winds. the good news, we'll see a clearing trend by the second half of the weekend as we head into early monday as well. that is promising. they certainly need a break.

it has been a rough go into that part of the world. >> derek van dam, thank you so much. >> thanks, george. you're watching "cnn newsroom." still to come, victims of the doctors without borders attack received an apology from the united states and will soon receive monetary compensation. details on that coming up. plus, we'll have more on the escalating violence between palestinians and israelis in jerusalem. that's as this broadcast continues on cnn international and cnn usa. when you're not confident your company's data is secure, the possibility of a breach can quickly become the only thing you think about.

welcome back to our viewers here in the united states and

around the world. you're watching "cnn newsroom." i'm george howell. the headlines we're following this hour. police in turkey fired tear gas on a group of protesters. the demonstrators are rallying against the government for what they say is failing to prevent a bombing. in yesterday's attack in ankara. that attack killed 95 people and two explosions. basically hit a peace rally that was happening at the time. >> while russia steps up its attacks in syria, defense officials spoke with the u.s. on saturday. held a 90-minute video conference call focused on safe flight operations over syria. u.s. defense department says the talks were productive and there will soon be others. a former staffer for the u.s. congressional committee investigating the benghazi consulate attack says "the investigation was politically motivated and that it focused almost exclusively on former secretary of state hillary clinton." clinton's campaign responded by

calling the benghazi panel a sham. israel's police officer was wounded in an explosion near a west bank checkpoint leading into jerusalem. police say the officers, they were alarmed by what they described as a woman driving in a suspicious manner. a blast happened shortly after she was pulled over and comes amid growing violence in jerusalem. the u.s. says it will make condolence payments to the kunduz hospital bombs. the u.s. calls it a mistake. a mistake that killed 22 people when the doctors without borders hospital in afghanistan was hit. the amount of the payments has not yet been determined but will go out to those wounded in the attack and to the families of those killed in the attack. on to north korea now. the country celebrated its 70th anniversary of the ruling party with a huge celebration that lasted all day and through much of the night. from a military parade with

hundreds of thousands of marchers to a nighttime youth rally. this all happened with north korea's leader watching and telling his country he will respond to any aggression by the united states and defend his country. kyung lah takes a closer look at north korea's controversial ruler. >> totalitarian dictator, owner of a nuclear arsenal of unknown size. this is the enigmatic leader of north korea, kim jong un. very little is officially known about kim jong un. he was born sometime in the early '80s. the third and youngest son of kim jong-il, the second leader of north korea. kim jong-il died in 11. the young leader attending to his casket as north korea

grieved. soon after debuted as north korea's leader. new and young. there were signals of a different era for north korea. kim jong un allowing his voice to be heard on state-run television. embracing modern images of the west. his own wife appearing in western suits allowing in new music, borrowing heavily from western pop music and embracing an unusual friendship with former chicago bulls basketball player dennis rodman. kim jong un has continued north korea's military first policy, the same cycle of threats and provocations, missile launches, emphasis on building nuclear weapons, political and cultural oppression of his people. he's proven to be blood thirsty, purging his closest advisers, even his own uncle. like his father, he doesn't take lightly to any mocking. >> i have a gift for you. >> the movie "the interview"

parodied him on film. shortly after the release, sony was the subject of a massive hack. >> if there was any hope young leader might be different from his father, that is gone. >> that was cnn's kyung lah reporting for us. back to the story we've been covering on the latest outbreak of violence in israel. there are growing concerns that this has the markings of another up rising like the ones we saw years ago. for more on this, let's bring in daniel levy, the director of the middle east and north africa program at the european council on foreign relations and joyce us live via skype from england. daniel, good to have you with us. are we seeing similarities between violence now and the beginnings of uprisings witnessed in previous years? >> i think, george, that's the question not only on your mind

but as is being discussed into a third -- too early to tell. more significantly, i think right now we are still primarily looking at frustrated individuals venting that frustration and an israeli military response to that palestinian frustration and this has not yet hit a barf there being organized kals -- to challenge the -- through an organized uprising. right now, there have been 23 palestinian fatalities, four israeli fatalities, hundreds and i think crossed the thousands of palestinians injured by ten -- the borders in the israeli court in terms of how harsh the breakdown will be, whether that

leads from this going from something spontaneous to something more organized and therefore more prolonged. >> daniel, our ben wedeman filed a report earlier. the gist of his report shows the two sides really are entrenched and there's not a lot of conversation when it comes to peace between them. the question to you, do you see any rhetoric from the israelis or palestinians to suggest that violence could be quelled in the coming days? >> i think, george, yourself and ben raise very important points because the real issue here as one steps back from the immediate pictures that we're viewing out of gaza with the killing of the pregnant woman and her 4-year-old daughter out of jerusalem, out of the west bank, et cetera. the real question is what is done with these prolonged extended periods of relative quiet or relative security at least for israel is and what

happened is that those periods of time have not been used in order to advance peace, in order to limit or end the occupation in order to head towards a two-state political collusion. those period of time have tended to be characterized by more settlement building, more en tran muchment of the -- i think most people look at this and say almost an inevitability that if you do not see periods of quiet used to advance peace that you will see a return to rounds of violence. what we see right now is a palestinian leadership that is divided and that is relatively weak. but a palestinian leader who remains committed to nonviolence and to a political two-state solution. a much stronger state behind him what who is really not walked

walk when it comes to being willing to make the political compromises for peace, to accept the palestinian's state alongside israel and do the things that would entail. i think much of the frustration, whether in the u.s. or he will elsewhere in the international community is they don't think that on the israeli side they have plenty of questions about the palestinian side, but the bottom line is, there's a palestinian side ready for peace and an is real i lieder say he's a rejectionist when it comes to will you make peace or not. >> fascinating insight for us. daniel levy joining us live. daniel, thank you so much for your insight. you're watching "cnn newsroom." as the world marks the international day of the girl. you'll meet a kenyan woman who saved runs of girls from the harmful cultural traditions that were grown up with.

these nine girls call her mother. today josephine is visiting this group at a primary school in kenya's region. eunice is 13 years old. >> i wanted to come to school. >> translator: but that man wanted me to be a third wife. wanted me to be a third wife, but i told him i will not be a wife. ♪ >> she's rescued over a thousand girls just like eunice from early marriage. female genital mutilation and beating.

who secretly wanted to save their daughters. >> translator: all these girls have been beaten. the youngest one here is only 7. already promised to a man. >> the beating but, they're allowed to pick a girlfriend among the girls who are not married. sometimes they don't have -- you have to buy beads for them and you have to put them around their neck. that's just -- [ inaudible ] she's like, no less than nine. nine years. going to marry her off. she wants to -- somebody want to marry her off. that's why they're asking for her now. >> even though female mutilation is illegal. cultural traditions are hard to break. girls as young as 7 are mutilated before they're married off against their will. often to men much older than

drug lord joaquin "el chapo" guzman. but this halloween, he may not be hard to find. that is because many people may be wearing the face of mexico's and the united states' most wanted man. rafael romo has the story. >> the most wanted man in mexico and the united states now a source of inspiration for a halloween costume. a mexican company has designed the mask in the image of joaquin "el chapo" guzman, the drug lord who staged a spectacular escape from a mexican maximum security prison in july. >> translator: by his caping, he became the most popular man in mexico the mask maker says. the most wanted but also the most popular. that's why we thought of creating the mask. guzman's caescape has become a they've designed masks of other presidents and other characters. the one of the cartel leader, the mask maker says, has rpdly
