. this is "cnn newsroom" live from los angeles. >> ahead this hour, sources tell cnn that u.s. vice president joe biden is putting together a campaign team as crunch time approaches, but his announcement to join the race for the white house. after a year in jail south africa's oscar piece or russ will spend the wrist of his time. plus, the force that overwhelmed movie websites around the world tonight and the clues in the newly released "star wars" trailer that have social media abuzz. hello. welcome our viewers in the united states and all around the world. great to have you with us. i'm john vause.

>> "cnn newsroom" starts right now. >> we begin this hour with the immense pressure now on the u.s. vice president to make a decision, is he in, is he out for the race for the white house? >> all indications for an announcement by joe biden is eminent and sources tell cnn he had a meeting with his top political advisers monday night. his associates have been setting up interviews for potential campaign staff. the most recent cnn/orc poll shows biden would have an up hill fight. look at these numbers with us. he gets about 18% of the votes compared to clinton at 45% and sanders at 29%. >> also on monday during a lengthy address at a climate change summit in washington mr. biden slipped in this comment about how he can work with republicans.

>> darrell issa, not a republican friend of mine, he's a friend. i don't consider republicans enemies. they're friends. >> that one remark is being seen as a swipe at the current democratic front-runner hillary clinton who just last week included republicans on a list of enemies. she was proud to have made. >> well, in addition to the nra, the health insurance companies, the drug companies, the iranian s, probably the republicans. >> it was a long list. ron brownstein is a cnn political analyst, a senior one, and editorial director at the national jurn cajournal and he with us right now. are we reading too much about that biden clip? it went six seconds. or is he sending out a message this is what the campaign will look like, i'm a nice guy, i work with republicans, they hate her? >> you know what he was doing

there. that was a pretty clear contrast. i don't think it necessarily foreshadows a negative campaign if he gets in but i do think it was a reminder that campaigns are about differences group have to find differences. if he joins the race he will have to find ways to differentiate himself with hillary clinton. >> and he did the same with bernie sanders and wall street. >> biden has been in washington since the early 1970s. he basically grew up in the u.s. senate, elected in 29. he's been the figure of washington really for his entire adult life. he has lived through different eras in washington. one where democrats and republicans worked together quite a bit. in the '70s and '80s and he's been in the more partisan part in washington, in the last 20 years. he's functioned in both. he's been successful in both. the question is does he want to risk his legacy at this point on what would be an up hill challenge against hillary clinton? >> let's look at the numbers. cnn/orc poll numbers with biden

only 18% of democratic voters. hardly a ground swell. where's the pat to the white house? >> the consistent story in the polling has been enough to make it interesting, not enough to make it irresistible in terms of the support for joe biden. this new poll i think follows what we've seen in state polls and other national polls. i've said before, probably said too much, joe biden is a dependent variable in his own campaign. i think this is not fundamentally about joe biden. it is fundamentally about how many democrats are worried about hillary clinton and to the extent that the debate and some of the self inflicted wounds on the house benghazi committee has reduced some fears. this probably less of a market for joe biden than there was a month ago even as getting closer to the decision. >> on the republican side, get to donald trump. this was trump earlier tonight at an event. he basically told a very large crowd in south carolina that president obama is planning to take away american's guns. listen to what he said. >> you know the president's

thinking about signing an executive order where he wants to take your guns away. this is the new. not going to happen. that won't happen. but that's a tough one. i think that's a tough one for him to do when you actualry have the second amendment that stuff because there's plenty of executive orders being signed. you know that. and we can't let that go on. >> he knows that's not true. >> that's not going to happen. that was the most accurate part of that sentence. >> birtherism, isn't it? >> it is -- it is part of both the primary and the general election strategy for donald trump. the striking thing about donald trump, we will talk about this later, is that the core of his support is blue collar. it is noncollege republicans who tend more to gun ownership and so he is talking both to his primary audience but certainly we are going to see in 2016 the issue of gun control joined more directly than any points in 2000. when al gore lost, conclusion,

gun control was a loser electorally. 16 years later, evolution and attitudes in country, and evolution who votes for democrats, i think you're going to see rhetoric like that from the republican nominee but you're going to see more on the other side than we've seen in many years with democrats like hillary clinton making a stronger case for this. >> you have been digging into the numbers and looking for that explanation for why trump continues to dominate in the polls. and it is very much this issue of blue collar, noncollege educated voters, correct? >> at this point you could reduce the republican race to two sentences. donald trump has coalesced the blue collar wing of the republican party around him to a remarkable extent. and no one has coalesced the white collar wing. the white collar wing of the republican party is still fragmented. donald trump is winning 40% in some polls in a field with 15 candidates, 40%. but on the college side, much

more fragmentation, about 20%. >> the conversation -- he's now to his fourth month of leading the polls. if jeb bush had those numbers we would be saying it's over. >> right. >> is he now in a position where the narrative used to be when will he implode, who is going to stop him? >> i think he's not going to implode. i think his hold on his half of the party, i think is real. now, it can be chipped away at. ted cruz may be able to erode it. i don't think donald trump is going away among noncollege republicans who applaud his views on immigration, who like his skepticikep skepticism of f. to me the big question is whether the other half of the party, and the college and noncollege sides are even. the question is whether someone can unify that side. >> is there a person you see clearly? >> part of the problem is right now jeb bush, marco rubio, bernie sanders, carly fiorina, they're all compete for pieces in the end eventually it should

get down to one candidate from each bracket. that's when the race truly gets joined. that's more likely to overcome trump. >> fascinating insight. great piece you wrote there. thank you, ron. always great. >> fine race already. >> it is. >> remarkable. >> many, many more months. >> thanks for coming in. >> thank you, ron. go to canada. media outlets are declaring a big win for the country's liberal party canada's next prime minister is likely to be justin trudeau, jumped from third place to victory in the final days of the campaign. >> promised to fix canada's cool relations with obama white house and poor canadian forces out of the fight against isis to focus instead on humanitarian aid. the liberal win ends a nine-year run by the conservative party. big shake-up in canadian polls there. >> how about that? >> how about that? a group calling themselves cwa is taking credit for hacking into the private e-mail accounts

of cia director john brennen and u.s. homeland security secretary jay johnson. >> you would think they would be safe but they weren't. the group is tweeting out information they claim to have gathered including brennan's application for security clearance. the hackers say they're all under 22 years old. cnn's lori siegel spoke to them in their early recorded interview. they appeared to disguise their voices as they describe what they apparently found. >> social security numbers, plans talking about iraq and syria. there was a lot of, i guess, private information, really. pretty stupid, really. >> well, sources confirm both accounts were hacked but cnn cannot independently verify the documents leaked. if the breaches are, of course, under investigation. u.s. justice correspondent evan perez has more details.

>> anal ledged hacker tells cnn he's part of a group that broken into the private accounts of cia director brennan and homeland security director jay johnson. they say they did this to protest u.s. foreign policy on israel and palestinians. in recent days he has taunting them on twitter and published information officials believe was stolen from brennan's aol e-mail account. one document appears to be a list of members of the intelligence community, security clearances. and another document stolen is the government form that brennan filled out in order to get his top secret security clearance. brennan would have provided this information while he was still a private citizen before he took a job in the obama administration. cia said in a statement, quote, we are aware of reports that have surfaced on social media and have referred that matter to the appropriate authorities. after the alleged hacker chatted with cnn, twitter suspended the account he was using. evan perez, cnn, washington.

united nations secretary general ban ki-moon is urging them to stop letting the extremists win. he released a video message on monday calling for a two-state solution and asking palestinian youth to put down their weapons even though they may be frustrat frustrated. palestinians have been killed since the beginning of the month. >> in an effort to control the situation israel police are constructing what they say are temporary barricades in east jerusalem to separate arab and jewish neighborhoods. now four israel cities have temporariliry banned maintenance workers and cleaners, many of whom are arabs from schools they cite security concerns. >> israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu are warning people not to take the law into their own hands. >> this comes after a migrant was mistaken for an attacker and beaten busivillians during a shooting rampage. phil black has more and we have to warn you, some of this video is very graphic. >> reporter: on the floor of the bus station the man under the

white sheet is the dead arab shooter. he had attacked an israeli soldier with knife and gun and then took that soldier's gun to fire into the crowd, wounding ten others. the terror that followed bringing about yet another day. this security video shows the panic that people running from the shooting. in the upper right of your screen you can also see a man crawling away. moments later he shot by a security guard who mistakes him for a sect attacker. gripped by fear and rage. the crowd turns on the wounded man. this video shows people kicking him as he lays injured and bleeding. break his head, a man is heard screaming repeatedly. he later died in hospital. turns out he was not a terrorist. not involved in the attack at all. police identified him as 29-year-old eritrean migrant. police are trying to find those who beat him.

spokesman adding the police see this in a very severe light and will not allow people to take the law into their own hands. but terror attacks are designed to instill extreme fear and rage and the death of this eritrean migrant, this terror attack achieved its goal, another innocent victim. phil black, cnn, jerusalem. still to come here on "cnn newsroom," olympic runner oscar pistorius sentenced to five years in prison for killing his girlfriend. now the track star is out. we will have details in a live report up next. plus, new pictures of lamar odom as sources tell cnn the former nba player may soon be on the move with we'll tell you where, next. do stay with us.

former plk runner oscar pistorius is a freeman, sort of. he was released from prison on monday and now under house arrest in south africa. >> the paralympic gold medalist known as the blade runner zefd less than one year of a five-year prison sentence.

>> he will be under house arrest and correctional supervision for the next four years. we are joined now life from south africa for the latest on this. david, you're in front of the three-story converted luxury villa with the swimming pool and up market suburb where pistorius will be spending the next four years. what is the onerous restrictions that he will be under and what happens if those restrictions are broken? >> you described what is a plush mansion here in preer ttoria ve different from the jail cell he was in just under a year, oscar pistorius. he was moved in a surprise move. several hours in fact before he was due to be officially released. the national teams at the correctional services didn't even know. it was a decision made apparently by the prison service at the prison. i think they snuck him out to avoid us, to avoid the worldwide media attention, to get him into

the secure location without much fuss. if he does break the strict conditions, we don't know exactly what they are, then he will face the brunt of the law. but for the next few years he will be in this house behind me in luxury circumstance but certainly not released per se. he is under house arrest. john? >> one of the conditions that we have read about, it seems to be fairly widely reported across south africa, is that if reeva steencamp's family asks for a meeting with pistorius, he has to agree with it. could that happen? >> certainly, yes, it could happen, john, is the short answer. there have been tentative moves it seems from the pistorius camp to make as early as the trial i imagine stay. restitution towards the victim is a very formalized part of the proceedings, separate from any civil case.

over the trial period it emerged that pistorius was paying restitution to the steencamp family. of course the victim's family here has repeatedly said that ten months, not 12 months, is too long in prison, too short in prison, excuse me, for someone who killed a person. but his release is in line with the law here in south africa for a sentence five years or less, you can be released under these sort of conditions under house arrest after a sixth of the term. john? >> and with that in mind, david, this trial was to visit at the time, what about how that he has been released from prison, what is the reaction been there in south africa? >> well, john, you know, i wasn't here during the most of the trial. i watched it from afar like you and everyone else and was amazed by their level of attention. there were even channels here domestically that only played oscar pistorius trial. almost like reality tv. and the celebrity nature and the

massive fall from grace for this huge star. he was a huge star here in south africa. has all been riveting for the south african public. i think the public is split. some people still support pistorius and say he should be out of the public eye and rehabilitating himself. others say, well, with the country which has hideous levels of crimes against women, it sends the wrong message to have someone released after relatively short time in prison into the circumstances that he finds himself behind me. that again, in terms of the law, it's all about board, it seems. he could be heading back to prison because the appeal by the state to try and convert that conviction to murder happens in just a few weeks. and there is a chance they could win that appeal. john? >> david mckenzie there live just going on 20 past 6:00 on tuesday morning in pretoria out

the death toll from a slow-moving storm in the philippines has reached 12. tie poon koppu has weakened to a tropical storm but not done yet. thousands have been left stranded. >> several large areas inundated with flooding and landslides. ten of thousands of people are displaced. officials fear that number could rise. >> meteorologist is tracking this storm's path. let's go to our correspondent matt rivers covering this storm's impact live from hong kong. and matt, the real danger now, it's not the wind from the typhoon. what was a typhoon, but rather the rain. and there is a lot of rain. >> there certainly is. and it is not going anywhere. this storm really just hovering over top of this island. as you mentioned the human toll from this storm is rising. we now know from the latest

government figures that 12 people have died including several by drowning. and several more in separate landslide incidents. we also know that the government says nearly 300,000 people have now been affected negatively by this storm, be it by electricity out ans, damage to their homes, or being forced out of their homes. the latest figures tell us that 70,000 people or so remain staying in evacuation shelters, being forced out of their homes by these rising flood waters. because it continues to rain, the risk for more flooding and moreland slides certainly remains. >> and, matt, this is looking to be one of the most costly natural disasters ever to hit the philippines, for the philippines that is saying something. when we look at the damage, how wide spread is it? what sort of damage has been done by this storm? >> the latest figures have about 500 different areas experiencing

varying levels of flooding. really everything from just minor street flooding all of the way up to forcing people out of their homes. we've seen rescue after rescue being done by actually traveling by boat and plucking people off their roofs of their homes where they were forced to as the water rose. we know that the filipino red cross is even involved in these rescue, sending out volunteers by boat. they say they've rescued nearly 300 people in the last two days alone. part of the overall understanding of the damage is still being tallied, however, because of the wide spread flooding and landslides. emergency crews frankly have not been able to get into every neighborhood that has experienced problems. so these tallies, these statistics are still coming in as we speak. >> okay. matt, thank you, matt rivers live for us there in honk con with the latest on the storm. let's go now to pedrum at the

cnn center. in so many ways this is just a slow-moving disaster. >> absolutely is. that is what it's become, john. when you think about this, a lot of people just look into the wind speed and this was a super typho typhoon. it was a menacing storm. winds typically don't kill people. it's the water displaced on the immediate coast that impact people or the water they produce over land in the way of heavy rainfall. that is what becomes life threatening. over the sierra madre mountains, incredible mountain ranges that come out of the philippines. north of manila, a university town, a mountain town. well-known for cooler temperatures in the summer months. they saw upwards of 37 inches of rainfall, or 945 millimeters. that equates to somewhere on the order of 14 billion gallons of water or 50 billion liters of water. 25,000 olympic size swimming pools. the storm itself really has not moved must have. it has gone about seven kilometers per hour over the

past 24 hours. it has not sped up. it has not slowed down. it has kept the same track. massive area of high pressure parked over eastern areas of china. with the high pressure, the steering environment for the storm literally nonexistent. really hard pressed to move out of this region. that's why this becomes a slow motion disaster. unfor naughtily going to hang out over the next 24 hours. rainfall totals around 150 to 200 millimeters could come down over this region with forecast across the area. you take a look, progression of this storm system finally takes it out of the picture over the next 24 hours. we think sometime by mid to late week it begins to bring rainfall towards southern portions of taiwan, to the north. look at the sea surface temperatures. el nino is prevalent in what's going on. 25 named storms, above normal. eight super typhoons. nearly triple what is normal for this time of year. incredible warmth actually down to about the 200 meter depth that is what's fueling some of these storms. plenty of convection, plenty of

wet weather. look out towards the western united states, if you're watching us across that region, like has las vegas. los angeles, 167% of normal for the amount of rain that has come down so far in the. month of october. phoenix, seeing that pattern change when it comes to the el nino season we expect to ramp up. >> el nino is on its way. 2004, another el nino year with typhoons and bad weather as well. >> thanks, pedrem. in the coming hours, selected families will reunite for the first time after decades of being separated by war. 100 elderly south koreans are making the trip to the north to see their relatives. >> for many it could be the last time they get to see heech other. 66 south korea ans are on a

waiting list. we are joined now live from seoul, south korea, with more on the reunions. these reunions are rare and emotional. so emotional for the separated family members. how tightly managed are these meetings? >> well, they're very closely monitored, isha. this is happening inside north korea, a country that closely controls everything that comes into it. it doesn't want the families to be sitting around and talking about life in south korea, life in the outside world. and there will be people watching on as these families reunite. so what they can talk about will be extremely limited. the families that were coming from south korea were given a briefing before they headed up north. they were given advice such as don't talk about politics. they were told about the kind of gifts they would be able to bring, bring medical supplies, toothpaste, kind of small items but nothing of too much value. they were told they can bring cash, somewhere between $500 to

$1500 u.s. but also told that would very likely be taken by the north korean authorities. but of course this is a very rare opportunity. these families have been waiting about six decades to see each other. remember, it's not just to see each other but to hear any news of all of their families. in many cases this is the first news they had that their loved ones were even still alive. so there's lots to catch up on, of course, but a very limited focus of what they can actually really say, isha. >> yeah, the pictures are always so, so heartbreaking, so difficult to see. you know in the past when such reunions have been set up we've seen the north koreans cancel them just days before. let me ask you this. big picture, what does north korea seek to gain from allowing these reunions to take place? >> well, of course it's hard to read the mind of kim jong-un and his regime and what's behind the decisions made there but we do know that these reunions have

been used as a bit of a political football in the past, a bit of a bargaining chip. in these particular reunions are happening as a result of talks that happened back in august, that you may recall is when the tensions were really ratcheted up on the peninsula and they had high level of discussions about how to diffuse that situation and out of that came this agreement there would be family reunions. north korea seems to be holding up its end of the bargain. we don't know what other concessions may have been made in those talks to get north korea to make this kind of agreement. but another thing that an analyst pointed to to me is that this is an opportunity for a country that basically never gets any good pr, to get good pr for free. we know that in the limited times when north korea let's in foreign tourists or foreign journalists it only shows outsiders what the regime wants them to see, be it pyongyang or in this case the resort town of mt. kungond.

i'm just so excited. fans awaiting the new "star wars" movie a vig reason to get excited. disney which brought lucasfilm in 2012 debuted a new trailer monday and opened up advance ticket sales and it is awesome. >> it was a good trailer. latest installment is called "the force awakens." plenty of hype leading up to the release in december. the trailer aired during a monday night football game on the sportsnet work espn who also happened to be owned by disney. coincidence. >> i'm still happy.

they are saying that was another shrewd cog in the publicity machine. we have more on the big teaser release. >> hey, isha, john. it's so wonderful to hear that famous "star wars" theme music again. disney is counting down almost exactly two months until the preprepr premier of the new film. the promotional machine is ramping up slowing the first full length trailer for the new movie titled "the force awakens." disney was using one part of the empire, espn monday night football in order to promote another. i saw a lot of tune-in from "star wars" fans at halftime because they knew the trailer would be premiering. now it's being studied for clues about what to expect. here's just a peek at the new trailer. ♪ >> the dark side, jedi.

>> so what we see there, some of the scenes from "star wars" past, some of the chase scene, some of the things that makes "star wars" famous from the past trilogies. we also see some very well-known faces. people like harrison ford and carrie fisher from the original films. we also know that markh hammel will be making an appearance in the film, luke skywalker, but he don't see him in the trailer and we don't see i'm in the official post rs for the movie. that has fan ace buzz online wondering if there's a major plot twist involving his character. of course, all will be revealed in two months, december 18th is the premier date. and now disney is promoting that in a very aggressive way, promoting ticket sales as well tonight. people are able to logon in the united states and order advance tickets for the premier night's screenings. but some of the websiting had a very hard time keeping up with demand. we saw the same thing in the uk earlier in the day. just more evidence that there is

a real heightened interest among "star wars" fans in the return of the "star wars" franchise. guys, i hope you were able to get your tickets for the advance screenings. back to you. >> thanks. are you excited in. >> you know who else is not in this new movie? princess leia? the scinna brkbuns are gone. oprah winfy is going on a diet again but her pocket book is getting fatter. buying a 10% stake in weight watchers taking a seton board. >> weight watchers stock more than doubled, essentially earning win friday $17 million. she's publicly struggled with her weight for decades. losing 67 pounds back in 1988. and wheeling out a wagon carrying 67 pounds of fat during her show. >> i have lost, as of this morning, as of this morning, 67

if is "cnn newsroom" live from los angeles. >> ahead this hour, after spending less than a year in prison oscar pistorius will spend the rest of his sentence for killing his girlfriend inside his uncle's luxurious mansion. sources say joe biden is drawing closer to decision to

run for u.s. president but is time already running out. the "star wars" trailer is here and two months before the premier, ticket buyers are already out feeling the force. >> hello. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm isha sesay. >> great to have you with us. i'm john vause. "newsroom l.a." begins right now. almost a year to the day since former olympic runner oscar pistorius was sentenced to prison for killing his girlfriend and now he's back at home under house arrest. he was relooed from prison on monday a-day earlier than expected. possibly to avoid the media. >> the paralympic gold medalist known as blade runner was found guilty of culpable homicide on 2013 valentine's day killing of his girlfriend model reeva steencamp. he will spend the next four years under house arrest. >> cnn's david mckenzie is

outside home where oscar pistorius is now currently reside. uncle's three-story mansion, very nice upscale neighborhood there. reeva steencamp's family says he's getting off lightly legally. is he? >> well, no, not legalegally, j because it's the press debt here in south africa, if you get five year or under sentence in this kind of case you are let go into house arrest after a sixth of that sentence. that's what happened. we were already delayed. we were in this scenario in august expecting oscar pistorius to be rest leasleased into this behind me. in fact, the minister intervened at the last minute and said it was too early. there were cries of political interference from the pistorius camp and claims from the steencamp family too early in general after killing a human being. but now he is in this house

behind me enjoying a much plusher circumstances than his jail cell in the prison in pretoria. john? >> will he have to wear any kind of monitoring device as part of the conditions for his release? >> we haven't released all of the conditions. in fact, that's generally kept private at least initially. we don't believe he will be wearing a monitoring device. we do know he will be under strict house arrest. this is a conversion of the sentence to a house arrest. he will have to do community service certainly and he will be spending much of his time in the house behind me. he won't have access to firearms because of one of the convictions and he will be regularly tested, we can presume, for drugs. certainly it's strict conditions but many in south africa have complained given the level of violence against women that this sentencing has sent the wrong message. but again, it's well within the law here in south africa.

>> just curious. while he is under house arrest will he will be to write a book, memoir, give tv interviews? >> that's a very good question. in fact, we were looking at the law very closely to see if that is possible. there might be some pressure, frankly, financially for pistorius to give interviews, to get a book deal. it's unclear in south of course can law because you can't benefit directly from the commission of a crime but there's enough loophole there that probably he will be able to do something like that. but there's also the ethical side as well. the pistorius lawyers and extended family have been very careful to show that he is, in fact, abiding by not just the letter but also the spirit of the law. so i don't imagine anything is going to come out very soon but certainly he will want at some point the opportunity to tell his story. but for the next, you know, the foreseeable future, several

years, in fact, he will be mostly confined to this house behinlgd me other than community service and other things of that nature. but you know, south africa has been riveted by this case. and they are riveted today. it was extremely surprising to all of us that he was released several hours later. the national police commissioners -- the police service here diplomat even know, in fact, that he was going to be released. it was up to the prison itself that took that decision. again, i think, to avoid the intense media glare. john? >> david, thank you. david mckenzie live for us on a tuesday morning there in pretoria, just 7:00 a.m. thank you. i should make this note, pistorius is not in the clear yet. still appealing for culpable homicide. they believe it should have been murder. >> if it's successful, he has to go back. >> pretty high bar. >> it certainly is. early november, that case will

go to trial. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu warning people not to take the law into their own hands. >> he was mistaken for an attacker on sunday. phil black has more now. we have to warn you, some of the video in his report is graphic. >> reporter: on the floor of the bus station the man under the white sheet is the dead arab eritrean shooter. he attacked a soldier with a knife and gun and then took that showed ur's gun to fire into the crowd, wounding ten others. in the terror that followed bringing about yet another death. this security video shows the panic of people running from the shooting. in the upper right of your screen you can also see a man crawling away. moments later, he's shot by a security guard who mistakes him for a second attacker. gripped by fear and rage. the crowd turns on the wounded man. this video shows people kicking him as he lays injured and

bleeding. break his head, a man is heard screaming repeatedly. he later died in hospital. turns out he was not a terrorist, not involved in the attack at all. police identified him as a 29-year-old eritrean migrant. police are trying to find those who beat him. the spokesman adding the police see this in a very severe light and will not allow people to take the law into their own hands. but terror attacks are designed to instill extreme fear and rage. the death of this eritrean migrant this terror attack achieved its goal, another innocent victim. phil black, cnn, jerusalem. for more including the fallout from the migrant's death let's go to senior international correspondent ben wedeman. you're in east jerusalem. how are people where you are reacting to the killing of this innocent eritrean migrant? >> well, on the palestinian side

which is where we are, there's not a lot of attention to that. they're more concerned with the current situation. for instance, right behind me is a checkpoint that's been installed just a few days ago. and the installation of all of these new checkpoints, roadblock, closures has created havoc when it comes to the residents of this city on both sides of the line, so to speak. now, yesterday for instance there was an incident where a woman from east jerusalem died on her -- when she got to a hospital after she had been delayed for a very long time at one of the roadblocks. so there's anger over that situation. for palestinians what goes on within israel itself, the case, the very unfortunate case of this eritrean migrant, that is kind of a different area where there's not a lot of focus at the moment. isha? >> ben, let me ask you this.

is the killing raising concerns about vigilanteism amid the psyche of violence between israelis and palestinians? >> more than anything it has many people concerned about the fact that people increasingly are worried that those who have weapons and those around them may take the law into their own hands. and you've had a variety of statements by israeli officials, essentially saying if you have a weapon and you think there's a terrorist, kill him. now, even the israeli police in theory their rules of engagement in situations like these is not to kill somebody unless there's immediate threat. and in some cases, for insan francisco, look at the case of this eritrean migrant. no one alleges that he had a weapon of any kind. now, the security guard who shot him but then, of course, he was essentially, according to the terminology being used in the

israeli media, he was lynched. and the question is, you know, where do you draw the line? and at the moment, given the atmosphere, it's very likely that there will be similar such incidents. so there's a lot of soul searching this morning about rules of engagement, who should be punished. perhaps the culpability of politicians who are some -- in some of the israeli papers they're accused of inciting this kind of violence. isha? >> cnn international correspondent ben wedeman joining us there from jerusalem where it's just gone ten minutes past 8:00 in the morning. ben, we appreciate it. thank you. canada's little party has won big in the country's national elections. justin trudeau is poised to become the new prime minister. trudeau is the son of a former prime minister. he's just 43 years old and will be the second youngest pm in canadian history. >> trudeau jumped to the lead in recent weeks riding a wave of

anticonservative sentiment and victory speech he praised his party's optimism. >> this is what positive politics can do. this is what a positive, hopeful, a hopeful vision and a platform and a team together can make happen. >> just 43 years old. well, the liberal party blocked a fourth term for conservative prime minister steven harper who has held the job for ten years. there are no term limits in canada. u.s. vice president joe biden is expected to announce any time now whether or not he will seek the democratic nomination for the white house. >> the vice president trails in polls behind hillary clinton and bernie sanders but as jim acosta reports he has some strong motivations to run, both political and personal. >> reporter: democratic sources tell cnn vice president joe biden is believed to be on the

verge of making his move. >> i'm the late joe biden. >> reporter: every time biden steps up to the microphone, all of washington is hanging on his every word. >> i've been in a meeting with the president on another matter for the last two hours. >> reporter: the latest tea leave, biden said to be meeting with advisers tonight as his team is setting up interviews with potential campaign staffers. biden is also personally spoken with the powerful president of the international firefighters union harold, a source familiar with the phone call said biden told him friday his decision is eminent. the two talked strategy and biden sounded like he's running. >> it is getting late in the fall and i do think we will get an answer relatively soon. >> reporter: biden defied the expectations for a decision before. first it was the end of summer, then the first week of october. and the first democratic debate on cnn. what's the hold-up? delaware democratic senator chris coopen is still grieving the loss of his son beau who urged his father to run. >> i think the vice president is

deeply torn. he is trying to honor the wishes that beau expressed to him in his last days but i also think, as father myself, the depths of grief that i've heard from him and his family is stunning. >> reporter: biden once again spoke about beau saturday night. >> as my son beau used to say, just keep moving forward. >> reporter: a new poll finds biden would trail hillary clinton and bernie sanders and democrats seem to be losing patience, less than half say biden should run. down from august. >> have you made you decision yet? >> reporter: speculation is running ram about. brandon boyle tweeted his own source saying biden would run. if he didn't run it's pulling back from a decision that's already been made. the white house is fielding questions on the matter every day. >> there's plenty of speculation about the urgency of the political calendar that we are, as the weather outside can attest, that we are now into the fall. and that's when more of the country's attention and more of

the debate focuses on the -- who the next president might be. but ultimately, you know, this will be a decision for vice president biden to make. >> reporter: sources close to the vice president says he has not made a formal decision yet. several democratic sources say biden must make a decision this weekend when a party holds a dinner for democratic candidates in iowa. the vice president also has to defense around hillary clinton's testimony before the ben xwaz zi committee this week. any sign that biden is trying to capitalize on that would likely backfire. jim acosta, cnn, washington. one of the worse days in u.s. history is at the center of a feud between republican presidential candidates donald trump and jeb bush. >> this has been going on for days, having sparring online and on tv over the 9/11 terror attacks. cnn's dana bash has the details. >> reporter: a political dual about america's catastrophe on 9/11, 2001, playing out in a

very 2016 way, on twitter. donald trump tweeting today at jeb bush, i'm fighting to make sure it doesn't happen again. jeb is too soft. that after bush had tweeted, donald trump talks about foreign policy as though he's still on "the apprentice." at issue, trump's suggest uns that jeb's brother, george w. bush, could have done more as president to prevent the september 11th terror attacks. >> blame him or don't blame him but he was president. the world trade center came down during his rein. >> reporter: delayed trump response to one of jeb bush's most passionate moments at cnn's debate last month. >> such a disaster the last three months that abraham lincoln couldn't have been elect sghed are you know what? as relates to my brother, there's one thing i know for sure, he kept us safe. i don't know if you remember -- >> reporter: trump is now even suggesting he could have stopped the 9/11 hijackers from getting into the u.s. in the first place. >> i'm extremely tough on people coming into this country. i doubt that those people would

have been in the country. >> reporter: for the record the 9/11 commission said only two of the 19 hijackers overstayed their visas but others gained the immigration system. the commission also said the attack was a shock but should not have come as a surprise. still, jeb bush's campaign thinks trump's latest rant handed them a winning issue. >> next week mr. trump is probably going to say that fdr was around when japan attacked pearl harbor. it's what you do after that matters. that's the signed of leadership. >> reporter: jeb bush's aides knew his brother's legacy would be a challenge, especially jeb bush's position on the iraq war which he bungled early on. but 9/11? >> i can hear you. >> reporter: this was not something team bush ever dreamed would be relitigated but they're happy to do so, using it to broaden criticism of trump as commander in chief. >> it looks as though he's not taking the possibility of being president of the united states seriously. >> the bush campaign is asking fordow nations with this e-mail saying, donate $5 and fight back

against donald trump. meanwhile, another bush presidential rival ben carson also insists he would have handled 9/11 more effectively by cutting oil purchases from arab states, forcing them to turn over the al qaeda leader. >> it would have had a major impact on their finances. and i think that probably would have trumped any loyalty that they had to people like osama bin laden. >> reporter: dana bash, cnn, washington. still to come here on "newsroom l.a.," a group of young hackers claims to hack into the e-mails of officials. just ahead. lamar odom is on the mend and sources tell cnn the former nba player may soon be on the move. do stay with us. whatever you're doing, plan well and enjoy life... ♪ or, as we say at unitedhealthcare insurance company, go long. how you plan is up to you.

weakened to a tropical storm. >> officials fear that number could rise. tens of thousands of people have displaced. authorities say some towns are cut off by flooding and land slides. >> cnn's matt rifs covering the story for us live from hong kong. so, matt, the real danger now not necessarily the wind but the rain. there's a lot of rain. >> what we can tell you is of those 12 people who did died, several did die as a result of drowning. several others dying in separate landslide incidents. and they're just several of the hundreds of thousand of people who have been negatively impacted by this storm. we're told by federal officials nearly 300,000 people have been impacted by this storm, whether that be through electricity outages, damage to their homes, or even being forced out of their homes. dozens of evacuation shelters have been set up and as of last

night there were 70,000 people staying in those. that's last night local time. they woke up this morning and have no homes to go back to as of yet, as they wait for those flood waters to begin to recede. that might not mhappen for some time. >> got a few more days in front of them yet. matt, this is looking to be one of the most costly natural disasters ever hit the philippines. how wide spread is the damage? >> well, the damage ranges from coast to coast, really central lieu zone in the provinces there have seen the brunt of the damage from this storm being in the valleys next to the rivers. those rivers over swelling their banks. we have seen 500 or so different sections, different neighborhoods being affected by these flood waters. the federal disaster officials say that that's just what they've counted so far. they can't even make it to all the places that have been

effected so far be it because of flood waters or even landslides blocking certain roads. so what we know of the disaster zone so far isn't really a complete picture. that won't happen until several days after the storm leaves the area. >> matt, thanks for the update. matt rivers live for us this hour in hong kong. meteorologist pedrem is joining us now with the latest on the punishing storm. how much longer is the storm system going to hang around? >> finally seeing some changes here in the forecast. in the last hour suns i spoke to you guys, actually seeing a speed progression as far as progression of this storm, sped up two kilometers by hour. negligible but at least again for the first time in 24 hours the storm is starting progression away from the philippines. we'll show you what's occurring across this region. incredible landscape. incredible terrain when it comes to the sierra madre mountains. storm system came in from the south, impacted the mountains and worked to the north.

one of the cities, four-hour drive north of manila, look at the rain that came down. on the order of 945 millimeters. that's not 37 inches or 10 more inches than what we saw as far as maximum rainfall across the state of south carolina a couple weeks ago. tells you the flooding taking place here. you do the math, equivalent to 14 billion gal lops of water, 50 billion liters of water. take that water and fill up 21,000 swimming pools. that is olympic size swimming pools. that's how much water has come down across this community. you know certainly going to be problematic. to the north we have a massive area of high pressure. this area of high pressure create a blocking pattern. the storm system has been slow to exit the picture. that's why this is such a big story as we're seeing the tropical rains persist. unfortunately with the forward progress, that was good news. unfortunately the rainfall models as far as the next couple of days, they've increased a little bit, up to 250

millimeters potential on top of the 900 millimeters that has come down in a few spots. certainly a dangerous scenario developing when it comes to the potential for land slides to take place through the middle of the week. storm system again will begin to move away from the islands. it approaches southern portions of taiwan by the time we get to wednesday into thursday. at that point a weak tropical storm. a story taken its time and we know now 21 storms so far in the northern hemisphere in 20 is a that have been category 4 or category 5. that's an all-time record when it comes to how many storms you would see this time into the season. look at the warm water temperatures. el nino certainly the convection associated with the warm waters out over portions of pacific had a lot to do with getting the number of large storms. the western united states, we know the rainfall totals for the month of october in cities like l.a., on through las vegas and phoenix, they've been over 100% of normal. in some areas in the case of las vegas, 182% of normal for how

much rain has come down. certainly seeing a pattern shift when it comes to the expected rainfall with an el nino season. it looks like it's beginning to initialize across the western u.s., guys. >> we'll need a few more days of that above average rainfall to make up for the drought for the last four years. >> you'll need a lot more than a few more days in los angeles. thank you. >> thanks, guys. short break here. when we come back, a few families from north and south korea will share a cherished and rare moment in the coming hour. and you will hear from one man who will reunite with his sisters for the first time in 60 long years. can a business have a mind?

good to have you with us. chinese president will address the british parliament tuesday afternoon. he and his wife arrived monday and spent the night at the

buckingham palace. >> went to london to visit the queen. the focus will be on commercial ties between the two countries. a number of multibillion dollars deals are expected to be signed during this visit. critics have accused the uk of putting china's human rights record on the back burner. in the coming hours, selected families in north and south korea will reunite for the fist time after decades of being separated by war. >> about 100 elderly south korean s are making the trip to the north to see their relatives and for many this could be the last time they get to see each other. >> cnn is live in seoul, south korea, with more on the reunions. kathy, he's reunions are so rare and incredibly emotional for these long separated family members. >> reporter: they are very rare, isha. all together less than 200 families will be taking part in these reunions at the resort in north korea, it will happen over

a period of six days. i met one man who will be among them. somewhere past the high rises, beyond the busy streets of south korea's capital, behind the barbed wire, jun knows his sisters are out there. >> translator: just by looking in that direction i remember their faces, he tells me. he has no photos, only memories. when he was 18, to avoid being drafted into the north korean military, he fled quickly. he didn't even say good-bye. now at 85 he lives in one of the most connected cities in the world and he can only imagine how different life is for them. if he could just call, this is what he would say. i would ask my younger sisters to forgive me. i left them with all the responsibilities, he says. my heart is breaking. i abandoned them.

after almost seven decades he can finally tell them in person. he has consistently applied for the chance to reunite ever since the program began in the 1980s. about 130,000 people in south korea have tried. only about 4,000 families reunited. tens of thousands died waiting. words cannot express how happy i am. i feel like i am meeting people who came back from the grave. >> reporter: he'll have to condition dencondense a lifetimf stories into the handful of hours they will have together. and your son? >> reporter: he's taking his son with him. >> do you think your sisters also have grandchildren? >> translator: maybe they will bring photos, he says. i hope they bring their husbands. >> reporter: this letter from the red cross confirming he had been selected was the first news he's had of his family. and it wasn't all good.

his two brothers were never found and his youngest sister passed away in 1983. >> translator: she was so young, he says. >> reporter: still, he's grateful he will see the two sisters he has left. preparing gifts for a bittersweet reunion. when he leaves, he will say good-bye knowing it's almost definitely for the last time. >> reporter: and there are restrictions to the gifts that these people can bring for their families in north korea. the people from south korea have been told they may want to think about items such as vitamins or winter clothing. some will be bringing cash in u.s. dollars, up to $1500, with the understanding that it's very likely the north korean authorities will take at least some of that money, isha. >> kathy, as you talk about restrictions, how freely can the family members speak when they finally meet? >> reporter: well, not very

freely at all, frankly. this will all be closely monitored for the most part. it will be taking place in the large group halls. there has been some time set aside in the program for what is being called individual meetings. we would expect that that is also being monitored because of of course the north korean regime wouldn't want the south korean families to be talking too much about life outside of north korea, what it's like here, certainly not inviting their family members to come and join them here in south korea. that was also part of the briefing that some of the south korean families were given before they set off on this journey. there will be questions they will not be asked. he wants to know how his sister died, he wants to know how his parents died. there's no way of knowing whether or not what his sisters will be telling him is, in fact, the truth, isha. >> these stories are so incredibly painful. kathy novak from seoul, south korea. appreciate it, kathy. thank you.

well, a huge numbers of refugees and migrants have streamed into jrm any and anti-migrant movement has become stronger. >> cnn's that tick a shubert where people are venting their anger in weekly protests. >> reporter: every monday night in dresden, thousands come out to protest, their message, no more refugees, germany is full. the protesters organized by patriotic europeans against i slamization once dismissed as a fringe group of right wing extremists and political amateurs but their protests have persisted and grown, fueled by public fears that germany is not prepared for the more than a million asylum seekers expected to arrive this year. more than half in a poll say they now believe germany has, quote, too many refugees.

a mass is one of them. he told us he fears germany's p traditions are being eroded by muslim migrants. every monday night, he told us, we come together peacefully. we are not nazis, he says. we don't want to be labeled as nazis and we don't want to be painted into the right wing corner. we just don't want to become strangers in our own country, he says. on monday night police estimated 15,000 came out to protest against refugees. and this is the count of protest, several thousand people. very nosy crowd. signs that say, refugees welcome. it's a smaller but noisier crowd, heckling their right wing opponents. the dresden protests are attempting to echo the weekly anticommunist dplon of administrations here that eventually brought down the berlin wall and reunited the country. but many in the crowd listened with growing discomfort at the

increasingly angry speeches centered against migrants. it is a pity for germany and the german people what's being said here today, this man told us. as if they represent the people. what they are saying is in complete contrast to what people here demonstrated for 25 years ago. it's enough to make me cry, he says. protesters on both sides insist they will press on with their demonstrations through the winter, marking a public divide that runs deep. but the numbers show that fear and anger towards refugees is a political reality that cannot be ignored. atika shubert, cnn, dresden, germany. >> tensions clearly running high. >> germany isn't the only country in europe dealing with this whole issue of refugees and migrants. it is split. there's a lot of people who don't want them coming in and others extending near the hospitality and saying they've got to have somewhere to go. >> many people saying this is a test for europe to reveal their

there are stories about what happened. >> it's true. all of it. >> there it is, the third trailer for the latest "star wars" movie, the trailer came out just a few hours ago and it's causing its own little frenzy all by itself. >> the trailer was broadcast during a monday night football. and internet is exploding. everyone speculating frame by frame. for more on the hype, let's bring the senior reporter with the "hollywood reporter." anymore a frenzy. >> i'm mildly interested. the trailer, it kind of did the job. had excitement. didn't give too much away. it was nice they sandwiched

two 1/2s of a football game around it. which is weird. >> corporate synergy own ied by disney. it was great. i thought it was really -- you feel a little bit of the goose ump bes of the iconic john williams score. it didn't give away any plot details which is not surprising. but you get just more snippets, endless things to speculate over in the next two months. and more voiceovers. you know, so, we saw carrie fisher for the first time. >> what happened to the hair? bad call, man. >> it's hard to recognize her without them. i think what is remarkable here is how they have managed to tease out this -- the hype, if you will, the publicity. i mean, going from instagram to the little snippets. incredible how this has been carried out. >> it's brilliant. they did teasers to the trailer

over the past day or so. they showed like, you know, like ten seconds of trailer of the minute and a half trailer that they just showed during monday night football. social media was trending with releasing the poster earlier today. >> let's look at the poster. the new poster is out. we can get some more clues about the movie because we look closely at the poster, there's no sign of luke skywalker. he wasn't in the trailer. and there's also what looks to be like a death star, the third death star. they've gone back down the death star way. >> right. >> really? >> what do you mean, really? >> well, that's not necessarily surprising. death star, you know, being the ultimate, you know, representation of the evil empire. >> absolutely. >> if the empire is actually coming back, you know, now so many years after the original trilogy, they built it, is it bigger and badder than ever? >> i hope so. >> now, i know your brother is a massive "star wars" fan so i got to ask you to channel excited a?

>> first of all, i have to tell you that right after the trailer aired i texted my brother and i said, did you watch it? he said, duh, i put on a diaper beforehand just in case. >> okay. >> how old is your brother? >> he's a 30-year-old man getting married next month. >> he so hates you right now. >> he told me to give him a shoutout. daniel, this shoutout is for you. >> and the diaper. >> diaper. >> i'm sorry to his fiance. >> having fun with the poster and movie on twitter. let's look at what the movie posters out there. sign wars, the cast of "seinfeld" in various places in the poster. kind of funny. >> newman. >> newman was out there. also, which i found funnier was the jaja, all the time. >> and i -- the reason why i found this interesting, jaja symbolized everything that was wrong with the previous one. and if you look at this trailer,

they're going to great lengths to avoid that problem, right? quickly. >> absolutely. this is totally harkening back to the original trilogy. mention of the movies in the late '90s, early 2,000s. >> don't mention the war. okay? thank you for that. >> thank you. i'm john vause in los angeles. >> i'm isha sesay. this is cnn. this is cnn. stay with us. e, c nutrients... ...become especially important. from the makers of one a day fifty-plus. new one a day proactive sixty-five plus. with high potency vitamin b12... ...and more vitamin d. alright team, we've got an f150, needs a systems check and tires. doc, i need you on point for this one. already got the latest updates direct from ford engineering.

ri estate. after spending less than a year in prison for killing his girlfriend, house arrest. >> plus greater tension after more tragedy. israel's leader warning against jij antijustice after a frightened mob beats a bystander. hello and welcome to our viewers in the united states and all around the world. i'm rosemary church. >> and i'm errol barnett. thanks for making us a part of your day. we're here for the next two hours. this is "cnn newsroom."

>> and we begin this hour in south africa with a country's most famous athlete is now a free man but only to a certain extent. oscar pistorius was sentenced to jail for killing his girlfriend almost one year ago. he received a five-year sentence but was released from prison and put under house arrest on monday, a day earlier than expected, possibly to avoid the media. >> the blade runner was found guilty of culpable murder in the murder of his girlfriend. david mackenzie joins us from outside the home of oscar pistorius's uncle's home where the athlete is staying. why exactly was he released

after just one year in prison? >> reporter: well, certainly, errol, it's within the rights of south african law and quite common place for him to be released after a sixth of the sentence. for anything under five years for this culpable homicide conviction. he is in this three story plush mansion here. he was released hours earlier than expected. in fact, we believe to avoid the media glare. there's been intense media interest and south african and global interest in the disgraced olympian and his down fall through this lengthy trial and conviction, and he has moved from a prison to these surroundings where he will be effectively under house arrest. >> reports i've seen suggest that he's physically weaker now. he's mentally in need of help too.

what do we know about his physical and mental state. >> reporter: we learned exclusive details two months ago when he was due to be released earlier that was put on hold. we heard that he arrived in prison very angry, but over time kind of accepted his fate. was a much calmer and more engaging individual. no idea what his state of mind will be now. but one can assume on some level, relief. you must not forget the victim of this crime, his girlfriend. her family has said that it's too early to be released for this kind of crime of killing a person. just shy of one year in prison. he is now under conditions. we know as you asked, he will get mandatory therapy as part of the conditions. he will also be fined to that hospital much of the time. will have to do community service and cannot drink or have

access to firearms. >> i remember when i was in jo han usberg, that there was such intense interest and views among south africans about all of this. how are people reacting to the news that he's basically back home? >> reporter: they're reacting with great interest. as you said, this has been so closely followed here in south africa. and the fact that the trial was broadcast live. it was almost like a reality tv show. the down fall of this famous olympian, and one cannot stress how big of a personality he was for the country. now the opinion is somewhat split here. there are some people who are jaded a little bit by this ongoing story, but still a great deal of anger by those who say that being released after so

little time, according to them, sends a bad message in a country that is rief with violence against women. again, according to a new, nothing was done in terms of releasing him. he's not out of the woods. his appeal, the state's appeal will happen very soon in south africa where they could try to overturn this conviction into a murder conviction, which could see him spend a significant longer time in prison. for now, though, he's here in the mansion at his uncles' house enjoying a semblance of freedom, but it's really just a transfer of his sentence to another location. >> david mackenzie live for us. david, thanks. >> and we go now to the middle east. benjamin netanyahu is warning israelis against justice. the prime minister's message comes a day after an african migrant was killed sunday during

a shooting rampage. >> now, a security guard shot the man mistaking him for an attacker. then an angry mob beat him. >> reporter: the crowd who finds himself at the site should evacuate the area. we have a country of law. no one will take the law into their own hands. >> we'll take you live to jerusalem and connect with our ben wedeman in a moment. but first his report on the walls israel is building to separate jewish and palestinian neighborhoods in an effort to control the violence. >> reporter: we're in the neighborhood in eastern jerusalem. this is a palestinian neighborhood which now is cut off with the cement blocks. this is where three of the alleged attackers come from from the recent attacks. and what you're seeing here are the measures israel is taking to try to stop future attacks.

they've installed about half a dozen of these prefabricated walls. they're just around the house and don't seem to be serving any specific purpose. they are, however, sending a message to the residents of the city that this could be their future like many of the neighborhoods are that are now on the other side of the wall israel built around jerusalem, that they may some day be cut off from the city. a group of policeman go through the barriers. their presence met with resistance. now the riot police are leaving this area after they went to the house of -- we believe -- one of the participants in recent attacks, and here you see local residents not happy that they're in the neighborhood. it looks like just kids banging on light poles, but they're

getting ready with the tear gas. they left without firing, however. israel has long boasted that jerusalem is a united city but when you see scenes like this with israeli riot police fully armed going into palestinian east jerusalem neighborhoods, it's quite clear that this is, in fact, still a very divided city and only becoming more divided. >> and ben wedeman joins us now live from jerusalem. so, ben, how are israelis reacting to the tragic case of mistaken identity where a young man was accidentally killed in the latest violent incident in the region, and talk to us about what prime minister netanyahu is saying about it. >> reporter: well the police are going to conduct an investigation into this incident. the entire incident.

not only -- particularly the shooting by the security guard of this migrant. they're going to try to determine with an autopsy whether he died from the gunshot or whether he died as a result of the beating and kicking that happened after wards, and on that basis, they will determine whether those who were participating in this event, kicking the body on the -- the still live man on the ground or whether it was the result of the gunshot. if it's found that he died as a result of the gunshot, no charges, we understand, from the israeli media will be filed against those who kicked the man while on the ground. so, obviously, this is causing concern. the prime minister is urging israelis not to take the law into their own hands to allow the police in these instances to do what they have to do, and

avoid this sort of incident in the future for palestinians when they see this sort of incident, they say, well, this is actually what happens to us, innocent or guilty, in some instances. for instance, i have a friend who is a -- he lives in east jerusalem. he's a cameraman. he went to that incident, that stabbing incident at the central jerusalem bus station, and just because he looks palestinian, even though he's ar memenian, h was brutally attacked by the mob there. palestinians are saying this is the result of the atmosphere in which there's so much hatred and anger that innocent people fall victim to the crowd. >> all right. ben wedeman joining us live from jerusalem. thank you. >> now to another major story. the flow of migrants into and through europe has been a series of desperate bottle necks as neighbors tighten their borders.

thousands were stranded in serbia facing shortages of aid and shelter there. >> strict border controls on the hungarian serbian border are forcing migrants to go through crow ya satia to get to sloveni. slovenia is making demands to get twice the amount of 2500 migrants. a group calling themselves cwa is taking credit for hacking into the private e-mail accounts of the cia director and u.s. homeland security jeh johnson. >> the group has been sending out tweets with information they claim to have gathered including brennan's application for security clearance. the alleged hackers say they're all under 22 years old. laurie segall spoke to them in their only recorded interview. >> reporter: you guys say you

were able to hack into his personal inbox. what did you find? >> numbers. social security numbers. plans about iraq and syria. there was a lot of private information. >> reporter: if it's true, how difficult would you say it is? >> you mean out of ten? >> reporter: sure, out of ten. >> one. >> run? >> yeah. >> well, sources confirmed the accounts were hacked, but cnn cannot independently verify what documents may have been leaked. the breaches are under investigation. >> much more come this hour on cnn news room. there's an air of anticipation in washington. any time joe biden could

announce whether or not he'll run for president. >> plus the long wait will soon be over for several families who were separated during the korean war. we'll have details on the rare reunions about the take place. >> and the u.s. wants to create a culture accountability when it comes to drones. hear what the government is planning, next. whatever you're doing, plan well and enjoy life... ♪ or, as we say at unitedhealthcare insurance company, go long. of course, how you plan is up to you. take healthcare. make sure you're covered for more than what just medicare pays... consider an aarp medicare supplement insurance plan insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company...

terror attacks. dana bash has the details. >> reporter: a political dual about america's catastrophe on 9/11, playing out on n a very 2016 way, on twitter. donald trump tweeting today to jeb bush, i'm fighting to make sure it doesn't happen again. jeb bush is too soft. that after bush tweeted donald trump talk the about foreign policy as if he's still on the apprentice. >> i don't blame him. but he was president. the world trade center came down. >> it's a delayed trump response to one of jeb bush's most passionate moment at cnn's last month. >> it was such a disaster the last few months that abe lincoln couldn't have been elected. >> my brother kept us safe. >> trump is now even suggesting

he could have stopped the 9/11 hijackers from getting into the u.s. in the first place. >> i'm extremely tough on people coming into this country. i doubt those people would have been in the country. >> for the record, only two of the 19 hijackers overstayed their visas. the commission also said the attack was a shock but should not have come as a surprise. still, jeb bush's campaign thinks trump's rant handed them a winning issue. >> it's what you do after that matters. and that's the sign of leadership. >> reporter: jeb bush's aids knew his brother's legacy would be a challenge, especially jeb bush's position on the iraq war, but 9/11? this was not something team bush ever dreamed would be relitigated but they're happy to do so, using it to broaden criticism of trump as commander

in chief. >> it looks like he's not taking the possibility of being the president of the united states seriously. >> reporter: the bush campaign is asking for do nations saying donate $5 and fight back against trump. >> reporter: meanwhile, carson insists he would have handled 9/11 more effectively by cutting oil purchases from arab state. >> it would have been a major impact on their finances, and i think that probably would have trumped any loyalty they had to peop people. >> joining me is peter binart. donald trump pointed out a simple truth but it's something no politician has done before. publicly criticized the lack of objection before 9/11. how much did the bush administration know before the attacks? >> well, they certainly didn't know when exactly there was

going to be an attack, but what we do know from their former counterterrorism officials is that the bush administration was more focussed on iraq and missile issues. even though people were desperately trying to get their attention warning them an attack might be coming and the folks at the cia were saying the same as well, and they were deeply disturbed by the fact that the bush administration didn't pay more attention to this. >> and our viewers can read more of your article for the atlantic. in it you say the criticism is valid because they knew there was a growing threat. they were distracted by iraq, but was the intelligence about bin laden and al qaeda at that time specific enough? >> no. it wasn't specific in the sense that they knew exactly when and where he would attack. but the point that the

counterterrorism coordinator made is that when bill clinton had these serious warnings of an attack in 1999, he demanded the heads of the cia and fbi hold a daily meeting, and that created an urgency which clark says contributed to them capturing a man who was trying to blow up the los angeles airport. we knew there were hijackers who had brushes with the law. and one was arrested because his flight instructor in minnesota became very suspicious of what was happening. but the fbi agents in minnesota were not given permission to check his computer or his apartment. i think what clark is suggesting is that had there been this kind of memo from the top down coming from the president, this was a serious priority in 2001, maybe

the leads would have been checked more aggressively and maybe the plot would have been unravelled. >> and just raising those questions itself could be damaging for republicans. we've seen there had been infighting among them about what could have been done before and even after 9/11. we saw jeb bush forcefully defending his brother in defense to this. trump made no mention of the role before 9/11. why do you think that is and do you expect this topic to rear its ugly head again for republicans? >> it seems like donald trump is backing away from this a little bit. maybe because george w. bush is still popular among republicans. he would rather argue about something else. but the way jeb bush responded, he says there have a crisis and then my brother kept us safe. it wasn't a natural disaster. if you want to give bush credit for the fact that there wasn't another major terrorist attack,

you also have to factor in the fact that the largest attack in american history happened on his watch. you can't have it both ways. >> and you can expect it to come up again when they face the democrats when that nominee is decided. peter, our commentator joining us from new york today. thanks a lot. >> my pleasure. >> a stunning political victory in canada where voters have elected a majority liberal government. that means stephen harper nearly ten-year run as prime minister is coming to an end. >> the new prime minister will be trudeau who took numbers from the conservative party and from the socialist new democratic party. the 43-year-old is the son of the former prime minister. he ran on a platform of repairing relations with the u.s., withdrawing from the war, and climate change.

he argued canadians want change. >> canadians from all across the great country sent a clear message tonight. it's time for a change in this country, my friends. a real change. >> as for harper's loss, critics point to a host of issues. harper's strength had been the economy, but canada ended a recession earlier this year. he was also criticized as being weak on climate change and anti-immigrant. harper said he congratulated trudeau on the victory. >> tonight's result is not the one we had hoped for. the people are never wrong. the disappointment you also feel is my responsibility, and mine alone. but know this for certain. when the next time comes, this party will offer canadians a strong and clear alternative based on our conservative values. >> so there are the results.

now this grueling campaign was one of the longest in canadian history, a whopping 78 days. when you compare it to the u.s., more than a year away from the election, seems quite small, but good for canada. >> the u.s. government wants mu regulation on drones and they could happen as soon as the holiday shopping season. they want drones registered so they can be tracked down if needed. >> there's growing concern over close cause between the small unmanned aircraft. drones that fly too close to planes can be sucked into the engines or crash into cockpit windows. >> we're going to require aer operators of drones to register their aircraft like commercial drone operators do currently. the details will be developed by a task force consisting of

government leaders and a diverse group of stake holders who will work on a tight deadline to get this work done. >> if you're planning on buying one of these things, keep in mind the transportation secretary says small drones, some of them, such as toys could be exempt from the registration. >> and retailers are saying 7 00 ,000 of these are expected to be bought. >> we'll take a short break here. still to come with their homes coming under fire, thousands of civilians are fleeing. still to come, the intensifying battle for the syrian city of alep aleppo. >> and several south korean families are one step closer to reuniting with their families in the north for the first time in more than 60 years.

>> we keep our focus on the family unit here. selected families in north and south korea are reunited tuesday after being separated by war. >> about 100 elderly south koreans have made the trip to the north to see their relatives. for many, though, it could be the last time they see each other. and cnn's kathy novak lives us live from seoul south korea on more on these family reunions. how closely are these reunions monitored and how much are they cover yo graphed. >> very closely and very tightly cover owe graphed. they've been separated since the korean war in the 1950s. many have been applying since this program started in the 1980s and there are about 60,000 people on the waiting list.

and this time around only about 100 families from the south korean side and 100 families from the north korean side will get this opportunity. the last time this happened was almost two years ago, and this is only the 20th time this is taking place. these people are genuinely excited and genuinely emotional to see these long-lost relatives. but what they will be able to say will be very limited. there will be authorities there from both sides watching on. a lot of the interaction will be happening in large rooms with other people around, with cameras looks on, and there have been advised to not talk about politics. they'll have to keep the conversation very limited, to not ask too many questions and to not reveal too much about life outside it have north korea to their relatives who live in this hugely tightly controlled regime, rosemary. >> and with so many, 60,000 people, waiting for these

reunions, how do the north and south decide who gets to do this, and it begs the yes, what's in it for pyongyang? >> it is a tragic sictuation. many people die waiting to have this opportunity. the vast majority are over the age of 70, and some simply will not get their turn. each side exchanges a list, and then south korea goes away to try to match the families that the north has submitted and vice versa. we don't know much about how south korea conducting the selection process. here on the south korean side, there's priority given to those who are more elderly. otherwise, it is a lottery system that selects who gets to go ahead. as far as the north korean decision to go through with

this, there have been times in the past where the political situation has meant that north korea has pulled the plug at the last minute, but this does give north korea the opportunity to appear like it is doing a good thing. one analyst put it to me that this is an opportunity for north korea to get good pr, a regime that very rarely gets to portray a good image of itself. that may be partly what's behind this. there's also the suggestion that north korea uses these family reunions as a bargaining chip. these were agreed to the last time that there were high level talks between north and south korea back in august, and this is one of the concessions that came out of those talks. we don't know what was exchanged behind the scenes to get this outcome. rosemary and airlierrol. >> so heart breaking at the personal level for so many of the families who don't get this opportunity. kathy novak joining us live from seoul.

in the philippines hundreds of thousands of people are impacted by a deadly slow-moving storm. at least 12 people have been killed by typhoon koppu. >> tens of thousands of people are displaced. and some towns are completely cut off by landslides and flooding. we turn to matt rivers who's covering this and joins us live. matt, we knew that issues would remain for a while after koppu initially hit, but how many people have been impacted by all

of this, and does the government still not yet have a full grasp on the scale of damage? >> reporter: well, they certainly don't have a full grasp. a complete picture on how big the damage is. just to give you some context, as you mentioned, we've been doing this story for several days. the first time that you and i talked, the amount of people that were in evacuation centers was 10,000. the number of people who stayed in evacuation centers overnight and woke up this morning in an evacuation shelter is now at around 70,000 people, and the total people the government says has been impacted by the storm now sits just shy of 300,000 people. by impacted, by mean everything from electricity out stajs to damage to their homes and being forced out of their homes. we know that nearly 500 neighborhoods have been impacted

by varying levels of flooding. some of the streets experiencing relatively minimal flooding. others, the water chest high, forcing people out of their homes up onto their roofs waiting for a boat to some rescue them. really, this storm has the impact of the storm has grown as this storm refuses to leave. >> and quickly, considering all of that and the fact that we know this rain will continue for days, is there any time line the government is providing on how long it will take to rescue people and think about rebuilding? >> they've been hesitant to give a specific time line, but they do anticipate that as soon as this storm moves north off of the island and the rain leaves, as soon as the rain leaves, then the flooding should start to go down. they're pretty optimistic that they'll be able to restore power and get to the remaining people that are stranded. they have made some progress in

the areas of the east coast where this storm first hit. they've made progress there restoring power and getting anyone who was stranded back out. they hope to make similar progress on the west coast as soon as this storm finally makes its way out of the area within the next 24 hours or so. >> and they'll need all the optimism they can muster. matt rivers. >> and our meteorologist, pedram javaheri joins us now. >> i think when it comes to the actual speed and progression of the storm, there are few storms of this magnitude moving this slowly. in fact, it was moving anywhere between 5 to 7 kilometers per hour and parked and produced incredible amounts of rainfall. i want to take you across the philippines and show you the

landscape. the mountains are prominent. it nears 2,000 meters in elevation in some places. it went over the southern mountains and worked north. that city north, about 4 hours north of manila, incredible rainfall totals, 37 inches. this is a good ten inches more than that occurred in south carolina just a couple of weeks ago, and the storm was very slow to move over this region. when you broaden out the perspective, look over portions of china and eastern asia, high pressure. you have the steering environment that's weak. although the storm tried to move, the high pressure was keeping it from moving and blocking it in place, and it created the stagnant pattern that led to this incredible amount of rainfall. take a look at the forecasts. some indication we could see upwards of a quarter a meter of rainfall on top of what's occurred. it goes north.

now progressing at about 9 kilometers. 25 named storms so far this season. 19 of them typhoons. nearly tripling what is normal on the order of some three would be average. and we've seen more than that upwards of 8,000. and look at the western united states. rainfall totals on the western side of the u.s., and of course, we know el niño has something to do with what's occurring in asia. but over 100% of normal in that region as well. >> all right. thanks so much. pedram. you were just hanging in there. you're about to lose your voice. we'll get to the end, right? >> thanks so much. >> hang in there. oprah winfrey is going on a new indict but her pocketbook is getting fat. she's buying a 10% stake in

different from where he's been pay staying for the past year. >> he was found guilty of culpable homicide in 2013 in the valentine's day killing of his girlfriend, reeva testeenkamp. he'll remain under house arrest for the next four years barring any violations. outside the uncle's home with the latest details, kelly, this is following the letter of the law, but many critics say this is way too early for him to be released. talk to us about reaction on that, and also the conditions under this release to house arrest. >> reporter: yes. well, many lay people have expressed a sense of shaock and outrage at the earliness of the release. but from a legal perspective it

keeps with the application in similar cases. anyone else would usually as a matter of course be released on the one sixth period if they've behaved in prison and if the state feels they don't pose a danger to society. he is simply being treated the sap as anyone else under the same sentence. in terms of the conditions, we don't know all of them. they haven't all been made public. but we know do know that he will have extensive hours of house arrest and have to serve community service which is standard with this sort of sentence. we also expect that he will need to continue undergoing psycho therapy, and there will be restrictions. we will be banned from owning a firearm. >> this is not the end of the matter for oscar pistorius. there is still a possibility he could end up back in prison.

>> reporter: well, that will all depend on the outcome of the appeal which is set to be heard on the third of november. the state is arguing that actually the verdict in the lower court was a mistake and it should have been murder. if the appeal court agree with him, then he would be sent back to prison for a substantial period. but we will need to wait to see what transpires on the third of november for that. >> what's the sense there on how that might turn out? >> reporter: it's impossible to tell. the only people who really can know that are the appeal judges themselves. i think many people in the legal community were quite surprised that the state pursued the appeal, especially considering that they did, in fact, achieve a conviction for the lesser offense of culpable homicide. so from this point onward, things are quite unprecedented. this was an area of law that up until this case had been widely considered to be very settled

and there is now a big question mark over the law concerning this area of murder and it will only be resolved once the judges have issued their final pronouncement. >> all right. kelly phillips joining us from the upscale neighborhood where oscar pistorius will spend four years under house arrest in his uncle's home. many thanks to you. and prime minister benjamin netanyahu says vigilant yus tis is not the way of israel. he delivered the message after a migrant was shot at a bus station. >> a security guard misidentified him as an attacker and shot them. then an angry mob brutally beat the man. >> reporter: the crowd should evacuate the area and let the emergency services do their job. we have a country of law. no one will take the law into their own hands. >> phil black has more on the attack and what led to the

migrant's death, but we have to warn you. some of the video is graphic. >> reporter: on the floor of the bus station, the man under the white sheet is the dead arab man. he attacked a soldier. he wounded ten. and in the terror that followed, bringing about yet another death. this security video shows the panic of people running from the shooting. in the upper right of your screen j you can also see a man crawling away. moments later, he's shot by a security guard who mistakes him for a second attacker. ripped by fear and rage. the crowd turns on the wounded man. this video shows people kicking him as he lays injured and bleeding. break his head. a man is heard screaming repeatedly. he later died in hospital. it turns out he was not a terrorist. not involved in the attack at all.

police identified him as a 29-year-old migrant. police say they now tried to find those who beat hem. the spokesman adding the police see this in a severe light and will not allow people to take the law into their own hands. but terror attacks are designed to instill extreme fear and rage, and in the death of this man, this terror attack achieved its goal, another innocent victim. phil black, cnn, jerusalem. >> jerusalem is a divided city with distinct jewish and arab neighborhoods. >> israel has just built a temporary wall, sealing off a palestinian neighborhood where three attackers ived. >> ben wedeman shows us why there is concern the walls are there to stay. >> reporter: we're in eastern jerusalem. this is a palestinian neighborhood which now is cut off with the cement blocks. this is where three of the alleged attackers come from,

from the attack attacks and what you're seeing here are the measures israel is taking to try to stop future attacks. they've installed about half a dozen of these prefabricated walls. they don't seem to be serving a purpose, but they're sending a message to the residents of the town that this could be their future like many of the neighborhoods that are now on the other side of the wall, israel built around jerusalem. that they may some day be cut off from the city. a group of policemen go through the barriers. their presence met with resentment. now the border police, the riot police are leaving this area after they went to the house of, we believe, one of the participants in recent attacks. and here you see local residents

not happy that they're in the neighborhood. it looks like just kids banging on light poles, but they're getting ready with the tier gas. they left without firing, however. >> israel has long boasted that jerusalem is a united city, but when you see scenes like this with israeli riot police fully armed going into palestinian east jerusalem neighborhoods, it's quite clear that this is, in fact, still a very divided city and only becoming more divided. ben wedeman joins us live from jerusalem. let's discuss the new walls in a moment. first i want to ask you what should we make of prime minister netanyahu calling for restraint in the wake of the man attacked and killed. could this be an important moment of reflection or a type of turning point at all?

>> reporter: well, let's just say, errol, that it is cause for concern, this incident that took place where obviously this man was not armed. the eritrean migrant wasn't armed, and not only was he shot. he was also brutally kicked while he was bleeding clearly to death on the ground of the bus station. and it's not the only incident that's happened like that. there's the case of a young on the fourth of october was ho- walking on the highway that separates east from west jerusalem when he was pursued by a crowd of angry israelis who were shouting that he's a terrorist. they called on the police to shoot him. the police shot him dead. even according to the israeli media, he may have been innocent. it appears in this atmosphere of anger and fear, that people are in a sense, losing their

balance, that you've got the creation of this mentality where anybody could be shot for all the wrong reasons. so i think that there's a realization that after calls by israeli officials for people who have licenses to carry weapons to carry those weapons and use them if needed, that maybe, perhaps, that was a step too far and has created a very dangerous situation for people on both sides of this conflict. errol. >> and ben, what about the new walls being erected, though? doesn't that reinforce the pervasive idea that there's collective punishment being handed out? >> reporter: well, it's interesting. i was reading in one of the israeli newspapers this morning that apparently those six sections of a wall were put there by mistake, that the police wanted to show officials what the wall would look like if

it were installed in that neighborhood. and -- but certainly, if you look at this situatin, what we have here, we're right outside the palestinian neighborhood, you have two rows of concrete blocks that essentially make it m possible for anybody to leave in a vehicle, and it creates the impression that despite all the years of israeli officials boasting that jerusalem is a divided -- united city, that, in fact, it is divided. divided in terms of the people, the mentality, the mind set, and now it is physically divided. and in this town behind me, they're now on a general strike. the kids aren't going to school. people who can afford to are staying hope today in protest of what they see as a collective punishment. >> stunning to think that the walls that have gone up could have been put up by mistake as

well. ben wedeman giving us incite and the latest out of jerusalem. ben, thanks. >> we turn our attention to another big story. a group calling themselves cwa is taking credit for hacking into the private e-mail accounts of krthe cia draerkt and jeh johnson. >> the group has been sending out tweets with information they claim to have gathered. the alleged hackers say they're all under the age of 22. cnn money's laurie segall spoke to them in their only recorded interview. they describe what they supposedly found and disguise their voices. listen. >> social security numbers. plans talking about iraq and syria. there was a lot of, i guess,

private information. . sources confirm they were hacked but we cannot verify what documents may have been leaked. it's under investigation. a stunning political victory in canada. >> that means stephen harper's nearly 10-year run as prime minister is coming to an end. the liberal leader, trudeau will likely be the new prime minister. he's the son of pierre trudeau. he said the canadians wanted change. >> this is what positive politics can do. this is what a positive, hopeful vision and a platform and a team together can make happen. canadians from all across the

great country sent a clear message tonight. it's time for a change in this country, my friends. a real change. >> and harper conceded defeat and congratulated trudeau on the victory. his conservative party will now have the second largest party in parliament. will he run or is he done running? i have to admit, i've said this before, but i mean it this time. the u.s. vice president is expected to finally announce any time now what his plans are for the 2016 race for the white house. >> now, without declaring, the vice president trails in the polls behind hillary clinton and bernie sanders, but as jim acosta reports, he has some strong motivations to run, both political and personal. >> reporter: democratic sources tell cnn joe biden is believed

to be on the verge of making his move. every time biden steps up to the microphone, all of washington is hanging on his every word. >> i've been in a meeting with the president for the last two hours. >> reporter: the latest he leaves, biden is said to be meeting with advisors tonight. biden is also personally speaking with the powerful president of the international firefighters union. a source said he said his decision is imminent. the two talked strategy and biden sounded like he's running. >> it's getting late in the fall, and i think we'll get an answer relatively soon. >> reporter: biden has defied the expectations for announcement before. what's the holdup? a delaware senator says biden is grieving the loss of his son who urged his father to run. >> i think the vice president is

deeply torn. he is trying to honor the wishes that beau expressed to him in his last days, but i also think as a father, the depths of grief that i've heard from him az hen family are just stunning. >> reporter: biden spoke about beau saturday night. >> as my son, beau, used to say j just keep moving forward. >> reporter: a new poll finds biden would trail hillary clinton and sanders, and democrats seem to be losing patients. less than half say biden should run, down from august. but speculation is running rampant. boyle says if he didn't run, it's pulling back from a decision that's been made. the white house is fielding questions on the matter every day. >> there's plenty of speculation about the urgency of the political calendar. we are now into the fall. and that's when more of the

country's attention and more of the debate focuses on the -- who the next president might be. but ultimately this is a decision for the vice president to make. >> reporter: sources say he has not made a formal decision yet. biden must make a decision by this weekend when a party holds a dinner for democratic candidates in iowa. he also has to dance around hillary clinton's testimony this week. any sign that biden is trying to capitalize on that would likely backfire. jim acosta, cnn, washington. the u.s. wants to create a culture of accountability when it comes to flying drones. coming up next, we'll tell you what the government is planning. >> and thousands of desperate syrians are trying to escape the fighting. we will look at the expanding battle for aleppo. that's coming up.

abduction. he is expected to be sentenced on friday. >> now, the assault happened last year. the case got national outrage and uber was banned in new delhi for a time. >> sexual assault is a terrible crime and we're pleased he's been brought to justice. another story, the alarming number of close calls between drones and piloted aircraft is prompting the u.s. government to take action. >> federal officials announced they're creating a national drone registry. rene marsh has details. >> reporter: they reach some of the most secure air space in the united states, including the white house, and they've nearly collided with commercial planes, even medical choppers on rout rout to medical emergencies. the lapd arrested this man for

nearly crashing his drone into a police chopper. in most cases, authorities get the drone but not the operator. federal safety regulators hope that's about to change. >> we're going to require operators of drones to register their aircraft. >> reporter: the faa hopes to force consumers to pride personal information when they buy a drone so it can be tracked back to the owner. >> i think most owners will come ply because there's penalties with using these devices in the national air space without come plying with the registration requirements. >> reporter: this year pilots report around 1,000 drone sightings every month. the number of reports has nearly quadrupled since 2014. but the faa has only penalized 20 rogue operators.

>> registry is the first step. but it's not enough. it does not protect anything. you need a little bit more, because the bad guys will not certify their drone and not have their registered. >> reporter: the department of transportation hopes to have new rules in place in time for the holiday season. the idea is if authorities have the rogue drone, they can run a serial number against the national registry which would take them back to the owner. how regulators enforce this and make new and current drone owners register their drones is still in question. rene marsh, cnn, washington. >> u.s. military pilots are being warned not to react to russian jets flying aggressively over syria. >> a u.s. official say russian jets flew close to u.s. war

planes on two recent occasions but there were no indications of hostile intent. the u.s. hopes to complete an agreement with russia soon on how both air forces should respond while flying over syria. >> one area of syria where the fighting is ramping up is in the northern city of aleppo. they're supporting a surge of iranian troops on the ground. >> nick paton walsh has more. >> reporter: a new force brings horror to aleppo's southern country side. these rare amateur pictures of possibly russian air strikes, and the unnatural noise and shelter of civilians, children fleeing the regime's latested a advance. mattresses give a sense of false safety from the jets above.

something has a settlement for us. this is the beginning of a new chapter of injury and displa displaceme displacement. the supposed target of the regime offensive is here, aleppo. it's ground to dust when we saw them a year ago, yet, still, lives thrown out into the open as their onslaught begins. nick paton walsh, cnn, southern turkey. >> a stark reality for those people. we'll take a short break here and be back in a moment. hours .

it's very important for the family to emphasize that oscar's sentence hasn't been shortened or reduced. he's simply entering the next phase of his sentence now. he will serve this under the strict conditions that govern correctional supervision.

the family will support oscar as he serves out the remainder of the five-year sentence, and he'll strictly adhere to the conditions put forth by the community of corrections. >> how is oscar? >> i cannot speak about -- i cannot answer on behalf of the family or oscar. i'm afraid i have to confine myself to this statement. oscar is here, and oscar is at home with the family. >> can you give us a sense of the conditions he's been put under? >> i cannot talk about the conditions at this stage. i'm sure that will become clearer as time proceeds. i'm afraid i can't speak any further. >> can you describe to us treatment as unfair? do they continue to feel that? >>. >> the family is happy that oscar is home. but they want to make the point that oscar's sentence continues, and that is the key point here. his sentence isn't shortened.

he continues to srerve his sentence as per the sentence handed down by the trial judge. >> what did the family said about -- >> i cannot speak about that at this time. i think all these issues will become clearer as time proceeds. >> i have to confine myself to that now. is oscar well? is he well? >> there you have it. so much attention. so much interest into what this woman has to say, the spokeswoman for the pistorius family yk e.r.a. not taking questions. she wanted to stick to a statement where she says she wants the family wants everyone to know his sentence continues. they will abide by the terms of the house arrest, and that the family will do whatever they can to support him. and not allowing herself to go beyond that to his conditions or what the reeva steenkamp's

family may have said. >> we have to emphasize, this was within the letter of the law. >> right. >> he was released just a day early. but people are angry. >> you heard our david mackenzie there. he'll try to get answers as well. >> we'll move on for now. several lucky families in north and south korea are reunited. about 100 elderly south koreans have made the trip to see their relatives. >> for many, it could be the last time they see each other. we spoke with one man who will meet with his sisters for the first time in nearly 70 years. >> reporter: somewhere, past the high-rises, beyond the busy streets of south korea's capital, behind the barbed, wire, he knows his sisters are

out there. >> translator: just by looking in that direction, i remember their faces, he tells me. he has no photos. only memories. when he was 18 to avoid being drafted into the north korean military, he fled quickly. he didn't even say good pi. now at 85, he lives in one of the most connected cities in the world and he can only imagine how different life is for them. if he could just call, this is what he would say. >> reporter: i would ask my younger sisters to forgive me. i left them with all the responsibilities. my heart is breaking. i abandoned them. he can finally tell them in persons. he has consistently applied for the chance to reunite since the program began in the 1980s. about 130,000 people in south korea have tried. only about 4,000 families

reunited. tens of thousands died waiting. words cannot express how happy i am. i feel like i am meeting people who came back to the grave. he'll have to condense a lifetime of stories into the hand full of hours they will have together. >> reporter: and your son? he's taking his son with him. do you think your sisters also have grandchildren? >> translator: maybe they will bring photos. i hope they bring their husbands. >> reporter: this letter from the red cross was the first news he's had of his family, and it wasn't all good. his two brothers were never found. and his youngest sister passed away in 1983. she was so young, he says. still, he's grateful he will see the two sisters he has left, preparing gifts for a bittersweet reunion. when he leaves, he will say

good-bye, knowing it's almost definitely for the last time. >> and kathy joins us live from seoul, south korea with more on these reunions. heart breaking to see these situations, and we know these family reunions are carefully core owe graphed by the north and south. what are they allowed to say to each other, and how are people selected from the tens of thousands who want to reunite? >> reporter: well, the emotion is definitely real. these people really have been longing to see each other dr decades, and many people don't get the opportunity. that part of it is real. but the other part, as you say, is staged or very restricted. the people who are taking part have been advised that they shouldn't, for example, talk about politics, and there will be authorities watching on throughout all of this to make sure that people aren't saying

the wrong things that, for example, people from the south are not encouraging their relatives to come and join them or anything like that, because, of course, north korea tightly controls any messages its citizens hear, and it doesn't want sharing of too many stories about what life is like on the outside. not many people get this chance to be reunited with their loved ones. thousands have died waiting. the way they are selected is that the north and the south have their separate lists that are submitted and then they both go off to try to match families and find the people who are left alive, frankly. and often people reach out and try to find their relatives only to discover their loved ones have passed away and end up meeting a niece or nephew or another relative. in the south, priority is giving to the elderly.

we don't know about what happens with the selection process in the north. there is a suggestion that it is people who are more loyal to the regime that get a chance to meet their family. >> a tough situation f. for a lot of these people, it's their final wish before they die. >> an anti-migrant movement is growing in jeremy as thousands of refugees and other migrants stream into the country. thousands of germans are gathering in an eastern city to protest. >> these gatherings started almost a year ago after a post of a rant against turkish immigrants in germany. some are speaking out against the group saying they don't represent all germans. the flow of migrants into and through europe, it continues, and it's led to

several desperate bottle necks of humanity as neighbors countries close their borders. the u.n. refugee agency tells cnn thousands were stranded in serbia amid shortages of aid and shelter. >> the u.n. says limits on the movements of migrants clogged serbia's western border with croatia and slovenia. we have already on the terrible conditions. >> reporter: exhausted and no place to go. with no roof over their heads, the rain continues to lash down. these children and their parents are now stuck on the border between croatia and slovenia. please, for the border restrictions to be released and safe passage granted into europe seem to fall on deaf ears. >> just one thing. please, open the door. because we are dying here.

if you have heart, open the door. we're going to die in here. this. >> the government, no, humanity. no humanity. >> reporter: here in a town in serbia, another bottle neck has emerged. tens of thousands of refugees are now traveling through serbia, according to the unhcr as countries further west and europe tighten border restrictions, many saying they're overwhelmed with the influx of ref 1993s. on monday the croatian prime minister met with his cabinet. >> obviously yesterday we kept 6,000 from coming in on the other side in serbia. it's apparent that this is no solution. so we will let them through. >> reporter: aid agencies say the living conditions on the

borders have completely disintegrated. >> we are distributing coats and blankets and biscuits and water. we are doing as much as we can. the other organizations are the same. the doctors are receiving many, many medical cases as you can see, this is a humanitarian, seriously humanitarian situation. >> as the winter months close in and the weather gets colder, the daily struggle for these member, women and children at europe's gates only worsens. >> the desperation on the ground is so intense. when you fathom what they've gone through. >> we saw earlier what they were running from and seeing young children in that condition touches your heart. you know something needs to be done. >> yeah. >> china's president is set to receive a royal welcome at buckingham ball lpalace. we'll have a preview and a live

chinese president will address the british parliament tuesday afternoon. he and his wife are beginning four-day state visit to england and will be staying at the palace. >> there's a lot of things planned but the main focus will be on expanding commercial ties between the two countries. >> we are in london outside buckingham palace and talking about what to expect. human rights, cyber attacks, trade, they're all likely to be discussed. the already announced plan for chinese companies to own in stake in nuclear if i weres there is already a topic. >> reporter: as are the concerns that cheep steal from china is costing british workers their jobs. in spite of that, it's a warm welcome that is being planned here. a royal salute will be given to the chinese president and his

wife. they will come down the mile to bucking h buckingham palace. he will be granted the rare honor of addressing both houses of parliament. even within that, there are certain delicate issues that are being tiptoed around somewhat. the dalai lama, a personal friend of the prince of wales, prince charles, so prince charles will not be attending this state dinner. he will be having tea with the chinese president. there are also concerns that the leader of the opposition, the labor leader, journeremy has ri to bring up human rights concerns at the state bank banquet. they say they're introducing a

package worth over double what the chinese invested last year. >> and this is not too long after the state visit to the u.s., so surely there will be some comparisons on the level the warmth between the two nations and how they welcome the chinese president, and there are anti-and pro china protests expected today. any sign, yet, of those demonstrations brewing? >> reporter: well, the pro china process, the welcome here, many tell us they began arriving at 6:30 this morning. we saw them when we got in, and they're already lining the mile alongside me. the human rights demonstrations and activists will be arriving a little later just ahead of his planned parade down the mile. the concern is for human rights activists that the -- well, the huge controversies over china's human rights records. there are no state numbers, for example, for the sheer number of

executions that the chinese state carries out. it's believed to be more than the rest of the world does in total. take a listen to this. >> nobody here, certainly not human rights workers, it has to happen. we're not against trade and investment. but i think it is deeply disturbing that the british government appears to be saying it just wants to talk about trade and investment. and moral issues and human rights concerns and solidarity of the people suffering is shunted to one side. >> reporter: this visit comes after chinese british relations went through a deep freeze after the british prime minister met the dalai lama. while the british prime minister, i should say, says that he will be raising these issues, he will be very keen to, of course, press what they see as the broader issue, which is deeper economic ties here. >> all right. live in london for us.

great to see you. thanks. >> let's take a short break. still to come, a new teaser is giving "star wars" fans across the globe goose bumps. we'll give you a glimpse at what to expect. start with a positive attitude... and positively radiant skin. aveeno® positively radiant moisturizer... with active naturals® soy. aveeno® naturally beautiful results®.

"star wars" mania is sweeping the world after a new trailer for the latest film debuted monday. fans even crashed ticket websites when they swarmed to get their seats. brian stelter has a closer look at what's causing all the hype. >> reporter: yes. the count down is now officially on for the force awakens. two months until it opens in movie theater and disney was using espn's monday night football to premier the first full trailer. a disney acquired "star wars" back in 2012 for 4 billion and now that investment is starting to pay off. you saw a huge amount of interest when the trailer premiered. it's already on youtube and fans are desecting it for clues of

what to expect in the new film. here's just a taste of what the trailer showed us. >> the dark side. the jedi. >> the trailer doesn't give too much away, but you see the cast put together for this new film. it's the first of three in a new trilogy. we see famous actors like harrison ford and kerry fisher from the earlier "star wars" films, and there's a huge demand for tickets. there's a presale that went online in the evening right before halftime. these were just for tickets in the u.s., and the sites had a hard time keeping up with demand. we saw the same thing in the uk earlier in the day.

disney would love to have a hit on its hands. and it anticipates "star wars" to be a bigger hit than seen in a long time. and the demand seen online for tickets would suggest to me that "star wars" fans are very much ready, ready, ready, for december 18th. it's a shame it's still two months away, but i'm sure there will be other hints released between now and then. >> and of course luke skywalker, that's the big mystery. >> is there a twist? >> he's not in the posters or the trailers. >> i think a lot of folks are going to run out to see this film. >> even though it's months away. thanks for your company. i'm rosemary church. >> i'm errol barnett. >> for viewers everywhere else, stay tuned for cnn news room. you can always connect with us on twitter at any time of the day. thanks for being with us. we'll see you tomorrow.
