>> north korea has fired three more ballistic missiles into the sea of the east coast. we will have a live report. and a rather embarrassing loss for german leader angela merkel. what it could mean for her christian democrat party. plus, turkey makes its way in its fight against isis clearing isis from its syrian border. hello, and welcome to our viewers here in the united states and, of course, all around the world. i'm rosemary church, and this is "cnn newsroom." the g20 summit in china, u.s. president barack obama and russian president vladimir putin
11:01 pm
have met on the sidelines, but a u.s. official tells cnn that talks with russia for a deal to ease the conflict in syria have ended for now. the g20 summit will come to a close in less than three hours. u.s. secretary of state john kerry and sergei lavrov also met on the sidelines of the summit. there was hope for a meaningful progress for peace in syria, but the two sides were unable to come to any agreement. well, the u.s. and russia have been at odds on the situation in syria for some time now. matt rivers has been watching this very closely in hanjo, and he joins us live. matt, russian and u.s. talks, they're over. no deal was reached on syria. what happens next? what more do we know about this meeting between the presidents of u.s. and russia? >> in terms of that meeting
11:02 pm
that's going on this afternoon, that is closed to the press. in terms of the individual nitty gritty details of what those two men are talking about, we're not sure of yet. now, before this meeting happened, officials from both sides have said that this informal meeting was likely to happen and that the top of their agenda would likely be the ongoing conflicts in syria and ukraine. as you mentioned, within the last two hours or so, we have heard that talks between the united states and russia in terms of figuring out a new deal for the conflict to help ease the violence in syria, they have failed here at the g20 for the meantime. the differences are still very wide according to senior u.s. officials on both sides. now, in terms of what the differences are, whether they're more technical minuta details or whether they're still big, broad differences between both sides at the negotiating table we're still not sure yet, but the fact remains that that is certainly something that presidents putin and obama could be discussing here in their informal meeting.
11:03 pm
there had been some optimism as late as yesterday afternoon here that we could see a deal come to fruition, but it was late yesterday evening that secretary of state john kerry came out and told reporters that negotiations would continue into today. it's been within the last two hours or so that we have learned that there will be no agreement reached here in hanjo during this summit. >> that is certainly frustrating for so many people. what exactly has been achieved overall at this g20 summit? anything? anything concrete? >> well, it depends on who you ask. i think if you talk to these leaders, every time they would come out and say, well, i always good to have dialogue between the leading economies in the world, and that's never a bad thing. it's hard to argue that point, but in terms of specific things that are coming out of this g20, there really isn't anything that has come out that you could point to and say that is the achievement here, and that's kind of the knock on these g20
11:04 pm
summits overall is that oftentimes it ends up -- the criticism ends up being that leaders just gather and they sit around a big table and take a nice photograph together, but in terms of what's done specifically, oftentimes there isn't anything that comes out. prop ownents of these kind of meetings say it's never a bad thing. when you kr the leaders of the largest economies in the world getting a chance to sit down, talk face-to-face, have one-on-one discussions, and you have leaders like the new british prime minister theresa may perhaps laying the graund work for new trade deals for britain. you have chinese president xijing ping promoting the openness of free trade deals. those are all things that these leaders want to push. those are their agendas. for them perhaps successful time spent here at the g 20, but overall no specific points in terms of a breakthrough or success here. >> very frustrating. matt rivers reporting there in china. it's just after 2:00 in the afternoon, and matt, let's talk
11:05 pm
again about this next hour. appreciate it. well, we've been following developments at the g20 summit and in syria from neighboring jordan. she joins us now from iman. johanna, this outcome from the g20 summit, it's ai slap in the face to those caught in the war in syria. what has been the reaction to this lack of progress for the peace talks and what's going on there? >> rosemary, people are here waking up to this news. we'll have to wait and see what kind of reaction we get, but in recent weeks we've been speaking to activists and residents in syria. especially in aleppo because of the deteriorating situation there, the escalating violence that's been taking place. we asked them about what they thought about the u.s. and russia trying to work out a deal, possible cease-fire in the works, and you get a lot of skepticism for them. there's a lot of lack of trust when it comes to russia, some of the activists we've spoken to say they find it hard to see how
11:06 pm
russia could be part of brokering any deal when it is a part of -- directly taking part in this conflict, and for them they have seen truces fall ap t apart. in the past you remember that cessation of hostilities that went into effect earlier this year and then broke down. it was a lot of skepticism. no matter what people thought of this deal or no deal at this point, the critical deal has been humanitarian aid delivery. something we have heard so much about from the united nations. it has been so critical. they want a pause in the fighting. especially around these besieged areas. parts of aleppo and the rebel-held part of aleppo where it is desperately needed, this humanitarian aid supplies that are running out in these areas. they need to get the aid in, but the u.n. said they cannot do this unless there was a pause in the fighting. now with this news of no deal a lot of concern about what this action means.
11:07 pm
especially rosemary, overnight we've heard from the syrian state news agency as well as the monitoring group saying that the eastern part of aleppo that has been under rebel control is under siege again by regime forces and their allied forces. weave heard in the past of a humanitarian crisis that is unfolding in aleppo in the eastern part of that city where there are more than 250,000 people who continue to pay the heaviest price when it comes to the fighting and the conflict, rosemary. >> what is it going to take in all likelihood to get peace talks between russia and the u.s. back on track here? >> i think it really depends, rosemary, on what the issues are. these differences when we heard president obama describe as great differences remain, and we'll have to wait and see whether they'll be able to reach any sort of compromise to get
11:08 pm
these talks back on track, to reach some sort of an agreement. i think the pressure here will be to try and reach any sort of deal to allow humanitarian aid deliveries into these besieged areas, so i think we're going to have to wait and see in the coming hours what u.s., what russian officials will say about these talks and why at this point they have failed. it's not really clear yet what points they actually agreed on and what they have not agree odd and what remains -- what the differences remain at this point, rosemary. >> of course, we still are waiting to hear the results of that meeting between the presidents of the united states and russia. we will certainly keep a close eye on that. bringing us up-to-date this jordan just after 9:00 in the morning there. many thanks to you. well, turkey is claiming a big victory in its fight against isis. turk irk state media reports the terror group has lost its last
11:09 pm
victory on the turkish-syrian bord border. turkey sent tanks over the weekend. turkish military member told cnn a dozen other villagers near the border were captured by the free syrian army backed by turkey. now, this video is said to show some of that fighting. this could be a major setback for isis choking off its supply line. the syrian observatory for human rights says isis has essentially lost contact with the outside world. farther south in syria officials in damascus say it was 400,000 tablets of a black market drug used by jihadists. brian todd filed this report last november on the amphetamine fueling syria's militants. >> i captured isis militant named karim tells how he got his battlefield courage. >> they gave us drugs,
11:10 pm
hallucinogen pills making gu to battle not caring if you live or die. >> reporter: when our team interviewed him last year, he was being held by kurdish militants in northern syria. it was impossible to know if he was telling the truth or if he was being coached by his captors, but now a u.s. official tells cnn it's believed some jihadist fighters are using the drug captagon, a dangerous and powerful amphetamine. how would it fuel them on the battlefield? >> keep you awake. you could stay awake at days at a time. you don't have to sleep. it gives you the sense of well-being and euphoria, and you think that you're invincible and that nothing can harm you. >> reporter: recently the u.n.'s drug tsar said isis and the al qaeda affiliated nusra front were believed to be smuggling the chemical precursors for captagon. there's a robust black market for the drug in the middle east. analysts say the profits fund weapons purchases for these groups. >> people affiliated with
11:11 pm
hezbollah have a long history in the production and sale of captagon. at one point there was a fight between hezbollah affiliated persons because some people were angry they weren't getting a cut of some of the business. >> reporter: can captagon was first used to treat people with hyperactivity. it's since been banned in the u.s. and elsewhere. while some question the drug's prevalence among fighters that preach purity, analysts say jihadists can find a -- >> jihadist scholars would say this is not hypocriticahypocrit. it's not being taken to get high. >> reporter: robert has treated thousands of addicts and says it's to hallucinogenic it can make users hear voices and see things that aren't there. >> that can hurt ow the battalions field. >> absolutely, yeah. but i think they have made the decision that keeping these guys awake for four or five days at a time and giving them a sense of invince i believe so is worth
11:12 pm
whatever horror or side effects the drugs have. >> for whatever sense of euphoria and invincibility captagon might produce, dr. keesling says there are horrible downsides. users, he says, can become psychotic, brain damaged, and can get addicted to the drug for years to come. brian todd, cnn, washington. south korea says pyongyang has fired three ballistic missiles into the sea off its east coast. cnn paula hancock is live in seoul, south korea, with the details on this. what all do we know so far about these three ballistic missiles that were fired by north korea and how long will it likely be before we know the capability of these missiles? >> well, rosemary, we're just getting more information now from the joint chiefs of staff here in seoul. they say they believe that they flew around 1,000 kilometers so that they are assumed to be road on midrange missiles and they believe they were fired into the
11:13 pm
air defense identification zone so the air zone that japan monitors for its own security and also saying that there was no prior navigational warning for these launches. now, we heard a little earlier from japan's defense minister he said that they have increased their state of vigilance. he is calling for more gathering and analysis of this information. the jcs, though, did condemn what they said is once again a violation of united nations security council resolutions, that north korea is not allowed to use this ballistic technology as per she's resolutions, but time and time again ignores that and does carry out these launches. they also gave some kind of insight into why they believe north korea was doing this today, which is fairly unusual for the joint chiefs of staff, but they said two things that we could look at is that the g20 summit that's going on in china at the moment we know that the presidents of china and south korea met just a matter of hours
11:14 pm
ago and talked about north korea and also towards the end of the week on friday you have foundation day so that the day that they celebrate the foundation of north korea. rosemary. >> now, of course, the big fear each time north korea fires off the ballistic missiles is just how much progress has been made since the previous launch and from what you said there -- i mean, if they're assessing 1,000 kilometers, that's significant progress since the last, isn't it? how much of a concern is that? >> well, it really depends on which missile you're looking at. certainly a couple of weeks ago with the submarine launched ballistic missile, they did make tremendous inroads with that. it was hailed as a great success in north korea. you saw photos of the leader kim jong un looking delight hugging the scientists and the military around him. that flew around 500 kilometers, and that was believed by many experts to be a significant
11:15 pm
success story or significant increase in the capability. now, essential with these missiles we've seen them fired a number of times. we don't know the exact altitude of the missiles. dwoent know -- of course, that could make a difference to how far it could fly if it flew at a certain altitude, but the fact that it went into this japanese adi is significant. >> most definitely. we'll wait for more analysis and assessment on that. it thank you for joining us there from south korea in seoul. it is just 3:15 in the afternoon. we'll talk again next hour on this very issue. let's take a short break here, but still to come, protests continue in brazil. days after the former president was ousted, who is the target of these latest demonstrations? plus, donald trump's campaign tries to clarify what his position is on illegal immigration. what one of his biggest

bank face a serious water shortage. it's a problem every summer, but this year has been particularly bad. palestinians and israelis blame each other for the crisis. our ian lee visited a village where taps have been shut off for weeks, and people tread to a spring to get water. >> it's a long journey for a 3 and 5-year-old. one kilometer there. one kilometer back. five times a day they journey to the spring. this is how the ismael family and the village get water. thousands of people rely on this stream. used for cooking, drinking, and cleaning and beating the heat. she takes me to her house to show me why. the faucet ran dry two months ago. every day i take my daughters to the spring to fill up tanks and bottles. water has become our main daily concern, the mother of three
11:21 pm
tells me. the source of the water crisis in the occupied west bank is muddled. as palestinian authorities see it, israel is to blame. >> the israeli national water company has cut off supply sometimes by 50% and sometimes totally to some localities and towns and villages. >> i believe that this is part and parcel of getting rid of the indigenous people from their own land. >> reporter: a 1995 agreement gives 80% of the west bank's water to israel. the divide is stark between palestinian towns and israeli settlements. palestinians store water in tanks on their roofs, while settlers have commuter tanks. palestinians also receive less than the world health organization's recommended 100 liters a day. settlers at times have faced shortages too. israel's national water company recently announced it planned to significantly increase the
11:22 pm
amount of water to settlements. cnn requested an interview with israeli authorities but they accused the palestinian authority of stealing water and not upgrading infrastructure saying the reasons for problems with the water supply is an increase in the demand of water for agriculture and drinking. the poor infrastructure stolen water, and delay in projects because the joint water committee hasn't met. that is because the palestinian committee hasn't met in over five years. both sides blame each other, and palestinians face health risks. >> many palestinians are forced to use unsafe sources like the spring. you can see there is trash nearby and if you continue to look around over here, you can see that there's also animal feces. >> it's about 140,000 people in need of just basic water, safe water for daily life. their children, you know, get deceases. they see worms in the water. they have no other choice.

republican presidential candidate is backing away from one of his most controversial immigration proposals mass deportations. former new york city mayor rudy giuliani spoke on cnn sunday about trump's speech in arizona last week. while trump rolled out proposals to crack down on illegal immigration, giuliani says many people are missing the speech's key point. >> what he said in the speech is after we secure the border and after we remove the criminal illegal immigrants to a large extent, you are never going to get to 100%. then and only then can we look at this in a very rationale way in which we can look at all the opgs and be open to all the options. >> he doesn't want to separate families. i would say that would be one of the things that would be pretty clear. there are other options too. i mean, it's going to depend on the person. some of the people could be have been on welfare for the last 30 years or taking benefits or cheating and maybe some of them have to be thrown out. not necessarily all of them, and

you were watching cnn newsroom. i'm rosemary church. i want to update you on the stories we've been watch this hour. u.s. president barack obama is at his final g20 summit. he met with russian president vladimir putin on the sidelines earlier, but officials say the discussions between the u.s. and russia on the syrian conflict ended without an agreement. mr. obama may address that after the summit ends. a big loss for german chancellor angela merkel's party in her home state election. her christian democrats fell to third place behind the center left social democrats, and the

anti-immigrant alternative for deutsche land party. the final results will come monday. turkish state media says isis has lost all of its territory on the turkish syrian border. turkey sent tanks and armored vehicles into the syrian border town over the weekend opening a new front in its campaign against isis. a turkish military member tells cnn a dozen other villagers near the border were also captured. well, catholics around the world are celebrating mother theresa's canonisation. she was declared a saint before huge crowds at the vatican on sunday by pope francis. let's go to calcutta, india, where mother teresa devoted much of her life to helping the poor. alexandra, a bit of a rainy day there right now. what has been the reaction so far in calcutta and of courspecy to the canonisation of mother teresa. >> it's been an interesting reaction here. when you put it into context,
11:32 pm
this is not a predominantly catholic city. it's a predominantly hindu city. there's a small catholic minority in this city, but mother teresa was a figure that transcended religious divisions. it was her mission to help people of all faiths. he we did see celebration of this city despite that this is a catholic canonization. you did have a lot of people who trnd up here and turned up to the mother house where mother teresa's tomb is to be a part of the moment, to experience it and for them this was yet further recognition on a global scale of simply the good work that mother teresa did. they felt throughout her life. the catholic church, of course, is simply much more specific than that. it is the reflection of the fact that the church believes that she is responsible for two miracles in the nearly 20 years since she died here in calcutta. >> mother teresa's asengs to sainthood is rooted in a modest village in eastern india. >> you believe really that you
11:33 pm
are here today because of a true miracle. >> i have been cured by mother teresa's blessing. not because of doctor's treatments, she says where. >> thank you so much for having us here in your home. >> monica says there was a miracle here 18 years ago. >> i saw a spark of light emerge from mother's photo and reflect on my tumor, she tells us. later a pendant given by one of mother teresa's missionaries was placed on that tumor. the sister left the lock et on my stomach where i had the tumor and tied a black thread there and put me to sleep. when i woke up at 5:00 a.m., i saw there was a photograph of mother teresa behind me. i told sister the big tumor in my stomach is no longer there. then i showed everyone where the tumor was and locket. after she was cured, monica
11:34 pm
converted. there are ten families that are all catholic. they even built a church in more teresa's name. to the catholic church she is a saint. mother teresa's critics say the canonization is more veneration for a woman whose deeds never measured up to the size of her global reputation. some have made allegations about poor high genic conditions at facilities run by her charity. a long-time volunteer from her organization the missionaries of charity rejected the claims calling them rubbish. this doctor is one of her most vocal critics. he doesn't believe there was a miracle. he credits doctors who had previously treated the woman. some doctors claim her tumor was really a cyst caused by tuberculosis. >> hardly anybody believes the miracles to be genuine. the doctors made statements that
11:35 pm
there were nol miracles. >> she remains reveered a world over. catholic sainthood will further cement her legacy of doing good among admirers, among believers. to them monica besra is living proof. >> reporter: rosemary, the headquarters for mother teresa's organization remains here in calcut calcutta. it's in the house behind me, the house that mother teresa lived in for so much of her life. it's the place that she died as well. as i mentioned, it is where her tomb is. this is a house that is open to the public. there are a lot of visitors that come through here every day to pay homage, to pay respects. today when they go to that tomb, though, they are going to the tomb of the saint and just a short while ago we actually saw a multi-phase delegation made up of lynn due, muslim, and catholic who wanted to come here and pay their respects at the tomb of saint mother teresa of calcut calcutta. rosemary. >> this is certainly an incredible story.
11:36 pm
alexandra field reporting from the very wet and rainy calcutta, india, just after midday. many thanks to you. well, in the u.s. the massive storm that's been beating up the eastern seaboard could regain some strength. the national hurricane center says hermine is moving out to sea where it's expected to regenerate winds up to 120 kilometers an hour or about 75 miles per hour. millions of people from virginia to new england are still under tropical storm watches and warngsz. let's get more on all this from our meteorologist. it's just extraordinary that going out to sea and regaining that strength. >> it's a storm that has traveled 10,000 kilometers since it first organized off the coast of africa. 6,000 miles. an incredible storm. now it's sitting there not very impressive on satellite imagery, but what's really important about this storm is that it sits will off shore. it's turning up a lot of water, and that's really a dangerous scenario when it comes to beach goers on a holiday weekend across the eastern seaboard of

the united states. the forecasters had it going much closer to land. it will kick up some tremendous waves across this region. it has now moved about 200 miles off shore. the storm surge threat is limited as well. still seeing 6 million people that are on a tropical storm warning across this region. really from, say, portions of the delmarva and portions of nantucket. it's threatened about 150 or so sent meters across some of the favorable atlantic ocean facing beaches. the track of the storm system will want to take it closer to land come monday afternoon and eventually push it towards the canadian maritime. it will weaken as it moves away, and that's the good news. keeping it away, of course, from the eastern seaboard. the other big story we followed is what's happened in japan in recent days. picture of the most recent typhoon that made landfall last week across japan, that was lionrock. this is not -- the next typhoon or tropical storm at this point that is threatening portions of japan, says this point not an
11:38 pm
impressive presentation on satellite imagery, but, of course, this is the fifth such storm in as many weeks to impact japan. we know the area has really been battered by a storm after another, and this particular one will want to move off to the north and notice the area highlighted in yellow. that is the potential for yet another disturbance to form south of japan. okinawa will be next in line, rosemary. we are now literally going on a potential for six tropical storms, rosemary, in a five-week period impacting japan. it's incredible because we've seen this happen before with the philippines. we've seen it happen with parts of east china and now it seems like this year is japan's year with multiple storms coming in. the pattern remains the same. the storm tend to want to move in the same direction. >> japan has had to handle so much in the recent past. many thanks to you. let's talk again this hour. okay. thanks so much. >> we'll take a short break here. still to come, a crackdown in the philippines. how the president is stopping just short of declaring marshall law after a deadly attack in his hometown. and a burning passion for

11:45 pm
conflict in syria. the leaders at this point unaware from the computers have been infiltrated. for two months before that meeting and according to cyber research firm syria themed emails have been sent to several european ministries. they contained attachments which once opened downloaded malicious software. it traced that hack to china, beijing denied any involvement. it wasn't the first time the g20 had been targeted. two years earlier french government computers had been infected with malware before a g20 finance minister summit in paris. there was no conclusive evidence on who was behind it. >> it's definitely a major target for hackers, so, you know, specifically nation state attackers because they're trying to actually steal data that can actually help them understand a government's negotiating position. >> reporter: spying at international gatherings is nothing new. the difference now the internet makes it easier.
11:46 pm
