welcome to all of you watching us here around the world. ahead on newsroom, israel's says they have the man responsible for a mass shooting in jerusalem. we are live with the latest. a man appears in court as we learn new details about the alleged attacker and the condition of the officer. lawmakers try to assess the risk stemming from the documents seized from trump's

home. his team claims they were declassified. live from cnn center, this is cnn newsroom. our top story, the gunmen who carried out a suspected terror attack in jerusalem has turned himself into police. what is the latest? >> reporter: in the middle of the night as people were leaving or arriving to the western wall, and the old city of jerusalem, at this bus stop and parking lot outside of the walls of the old city the shooting attack took place on a bus. the shooter shot at a bus a nearby parking lot. this is a major site for religious pilgrims and many tourists. this is one of the main places the enter the old city to visit

the holiest site in western wall. it is a sensitive place with a lot of people. it was the middle of the night but the shooting attack took place. two of the victims are severely injured, five mildly and moderately. including a pregnant woman who had to undergo a emergency c- section. we also understand several of the injured are american citizens, we do not have a comment from the u.s. embassy. the suspect at the time after the shooting took place fled on foot which sparked a massive manhunt that included police helicopters over the city of jerusalem but this morning the suspect turned himself in. take a listen to what the bus driver had to say.

>> reporter: the suspect turned himself into police a few hours after the incident took place. a security source told cnn that the attacker is palestinian from east jerusalem. this coming at a sensitive time. less than a week ago we entered a cease-fire between israel and the palestinian islamic jihad after that every day conflict

that involved airstrikes and rockets being fired back and forth so already a sensitive time and now the city is even on higher alert. thank you so much. the authors started to speak on saturday, a day after he was stabbed multiple times during a new york book event. prosecutors say he suffered three stabbed rooms in his neck in for in his stomach and he has puncture wounds in his right eye and chest and lacerations on his thigh. the 75-year-old remains in a pennsylvania hospital. the suspect plaited not guilty to attempted second-degree murder and other charges, he was denied bail and will be back in court friday. experts say he traveled from new jersey to new york a day before the event, he had cash, and a fake id with him. the late uranian supreme leader released a it it calling

for his assassination but so far there has been no official comment on the attack from iran's current government. some iranians said they were happy to hear the news. >> i was very happy to hear the news. whoever it was that carried out the attack, i would like to kiss his hand. >> at least two hard-line iranian publications rain editorials praising the stabbing and the suspect. to high-ranking house democrats are asking intelligence officials for a damage assessment after the fbi seized classified documents from the former president's home. the chairs of the house intelligence and oversight committees writing that resident trumps conduct has potentially put our country security at risk. in june president trump signed

a letter saying there was no more classified information at more lago. that was not the case in the can put trumps attorney in legal jeopardy. >> i think that lawyer needs her own lawyer. there is some serious liability there because making a false statement if it is done knowingly and willfully in the course of a federal proceeding. in this case a investigation, it is a crime. >> caitlin has more from washington. >> reporter: too much before the fbi search a lawyer attested in a letter to the justice department there were no classified records to be found on the property. despite this claim, when investigators seized the boxes this past monday, they found an 11 different places, records marked as classified which included records at three levels of classification even once labeled ts sci, the types

that require the most strenuous provisions for secrecy, like being kept only insecure facilities. these new details flush out the timeline that was leading up to the search of more lago. we learned this week of a meeting trumps attorney had in june. this letter from trump's lawyer also adds to our understanding as to why federal prosecutors may have seen no other way but to go to the grounds. they were not going to be given back by trumps team. he is claiming he declassified all the records he had but when you look at what is being investigated here, obstruction of justice, no mishandling of government records, the classification status of these records at this time might be immaterial. what matters as the

investigators continue their work is how potentially harmful it was to have these documents out of the control of the federal government for the last year and a half. all of what happens in june with this letter from the lawyer and subpoenas are all likely to become important fax if criminal charges were to materialize here and as investigators try to narrow down who exactly had their hands on these documents. cnn, washington. >> joining me is a political analyst, also the president of the global policy institute and is the author of the modern presidency, six debates that define the institution. thank you for being here with us. i want to start their with your expertise on the presidency as somebody who study presidents and so on, what we are seeing now with the general nature, we do not know what it was but the general nature of what donald

trump removed from the white house, how extraordinary and unprecedented is this? >> before and after the presidential records act of 78, presidents and members of their family have been accused of taking things they were not supposed to take when they left office. the normal process is the archives will say, where is this? and there is a process of negotiation, a back-and-forth discussion and they reach a accommodation. that has always been the case until now, this is different in kind and nature. the archives have tried and the even subpoenaed and they cannot get the materials back that donald trump took with him, the question is, what did he take them for? this is highly unusual. >> the nature of the stuff as well. top-secret rings, a lot of people have said there is no

reason why he would need to take this kind of stuff home. >> that is right, what is he going to do with it? there is fears that he can give it away or sell it, i am not concerned about those things, i do not think that is what he was doing, i think it is just his carelessness. his cavalier attitude about things and his attitude that the laws and rules do not apply to him. let me be absolutely clear on one thing, this is not a accident, every member of the new administration that comes in has to sit down and they get a briefing on presidential papers, what you have to keep, how you have to store them and how they do not belong to you, they belong to us, to the government and the people. so donald trump cannot say i did not know or i am the president, i can do this, you cannot. donald trump's attitude is just cavalier and he just asked like and thinks the rules do not apply to him. >> and then the attitude of the republican politicians and leaders, did you expect them to

fall so quickly behind donald trump? it makes you wonder what evidence of wrongdoing might be uncovered to have them turn. >> usually the past this prelude and if the past were prelude to this, you will see republican saying this is not right. give this back. it was a mistake, just admit it and give it back. it is amazing but it has been true for the last several years, republicans have fallen behind donald trump, they fall on their swords for them and there is a pattern that exists were donald trump will do something, it will be a outrage and then the republicans will hesitate and then all of a sudden they realize if we cross the sky he will have somebody run the primary against us or go after us. i have to say in a cowardly fashion, instead of doing the right thing they followed donald trump's lead.

>> president biden meanwhile passes a massive climate and health care bill. in a election-year which would have a huge impact on millions of americans and the planet itself yet it is relegated to the back pages. it seems even when trump is losing a he is winning by sucking all of the political oxygen out of the air. >> even out of office donald trump is the center of attention and he demands to be such. teddy roosevelt's daughter said of her dad, poor dad he needs to be the bride at every wedding and that is donald trump, he needs to be center stage. the cameras love him and he is a mac and into the cameras. a terrific self dramatization. biden has a more tepid personality on the other hand and therefore it seems like the

camera is pulled towards donald trump and even out of office he controls and dominates the airwaves. >> and probably will for some time as the story keeps unfolding. thank you so much. appreciate it. >> thank you. >> more support is being lined up for a proposal to demilitarized ukraine's nuclear plant, ahead another powerful voice calls for russian troops to get out of the facility. weapons from the west have been pivotal in the fight but first the manuals need to be translated. i speak to a volunteer speaking english to ukraininian troops o the front line. stay with us.

republicans in congress call them "entitlements." a "ponzi scheme." the women and men i served with in combat, we earned our benefits. just like people earned their social security and medicare benefits. but republicans in congress have a plan to end so-called "entitlements" in just five years. social security, medicare, even veterans benefits. go online and read the republican plan for yourself. joe biden is fighting to protect social security, medicare and veterans benefits. call joe biden and tell him to keep fighting for our benefits.

who says you have to spend more on skincare to get results? i power up my skin with olay. it works. guaranteed. try niacinamide for strength retinol 24 for smoothness and vitamin c for brightness. i like to use them all! olay. face anything. listen, i'm done settling. because this is my secret. i put it on once, no more touch ups! secret had ph balancing minerals; and it helps eliminate odor, instead of just masking it. so pull it in close. secret works.

a diplomatic push to demilitarized ukraine's military plant is picking up steam. the latest the boys came from the european union. the foreign policy chief tweeted the plant must not be used as part of any military operations. the statement came on the heels of recent artillery site strikes on the building.

they are trading blame for the attacks which prompted fears of a potential radiation leak. mckenzie joins us. let's start there with a threat to the nuclear power plant. what is the latest? >> reporter: that is the important, the un policy chief is saying there should be a zone. that has been the call from several groups and officials including the iaea that is calling for inspectors to visit that site. in the long run it might be possible but in the short term it is a difficult prospect to get a demilitarized zone around there. there have been accusations and counter accusations of who is shelling the site but the point

remains that it was the russians that occupied it in march, something the president of ukraine's dressed in his address. >> every day of the show, and in the neighboring regions of our country, increases the radiation threat to europe so much that even at the peak moments of the confrontation during the cold war, this did not happen. >> reporter: despite that, they have still been firing in the general region, especially on the industrial town. so the calls that are coming from the eu, the atomic energy agency and others at this point to not seem to have any kind of some, danger or accident still

remains. >> let's turn now for the wider battle across the country, starting in the south. >> reporter: relatively close to the nuclear power plant is a key front of this ongoing conflict. if you look at this image, you see to the northwest, that area is occupied for russian forces to face the condensed irreparably the ship that we took. that in the case of cuba scenario. they had their supply lines cut to the city which could be a moment in the weeks ahead as the promise or right may materialize. in the far east of the country, you have claims and

counterclaims again from russians and ukraine as to who has the upper hand. if you look at the center of the map the have been attempts by russia to push to the northwest. there has been fierce fighting there but ukrainians said they have managed to push back the russians. this grind in conflict continues and it does not appear that for the moment i am hope you the continued supply of these longer-range artillery weapons from the west that is allowing ukraine to hit russia's supply lines. >> thank you mckenzie. the u.s. and other countries are sending weapons to ukraine,

the problem is, many of the manuals are not the next guest is trying to correct it. they are a volunteer on the front lines of the war. teaching ukrainian soldiers english. thank you for joining us. you were a teacher before the war, why decide to help it. something you have been doing before the war started why did you think there would be a need for this? >> now i am teaching the reasonable level of english competency is crucial because our ukrainian soldiers must become proficient in handling and operating used for an weapons but also english is our main way of interacting, instructions, the military and

the media from around the globe. it is our way to talk about the ongoing war and where things stand. the contribution i can make in this war. >> let me take you through exactly what you teach since. it is specifically geared for the military? terminology and so on? >> reporter: i am working on a course for the ukrainian military. i take the language standard as the benchmark and we learn military vocabulary, terminology and the language that will allow our soldiers to be more fluent and confident in their communication.

>> we are seeing photos of you teaching those soldiers. it seems like a typical classroom with books and so on that they are looking at. with so much military hardware coming from countries like the u.s. and the soldiers have to be trained, how key is no. >> i think it is of paramount importance because there is plenty of manuals and instructions and also foreign instructors, foreign combat veterans, coming to teach our soldiers. all of the information is presented in english. >> it is not just about weapons, you are teaching them to communicate and we are hearing their stories, whether it is on the presser by social

media. soldiers telling their stories to the world is a important part of the war effort as well. >> i totally agree. some of my soldiers are now on the front lines in eastern ukraine. every day there are relentless attacks and they are doing their best to push the enemy back. they have instragram, tick-tock or blogs >> before you go, you are

spending so much time with soldiers, what are they teaching you? >> they are teaching me a lot of things, first of all, it is there devotion and diligence and courage. they are determined to continue fighting and they are ready to protect and defend ukraine independence and sovereignty. of course they help me to educate myself in terms of the military vocabulary and tone knowledge. that is why my course can benefit from it a lot.

to assimilate into western democratic society faster. i hope that my course will be a part of the military education program in a used. >> i wish you the best of luck as you volunteer to help your country. i appreciated, thank you so much to a better legacy that is haunted by india for 75 years. we are live in islam about it. a uncertain future for young girls in afghanistan. stay with us. cure it. with mavyret. mavyret cures all l types of hep c. in only 8 weeks. the virus multiplies daily and can damage the liver over time. mavyret stops hep c and cures it.

welcome back to all of you watching us around the world, this is cnn newsroom. it has been 75 years since britain abrupt deadly ended its colonial rule of india, that led to the founding of india and pakistan as sovereign nations. india marks its independence on monday. sophia joins us live. sophia, looking ahead, what are pakistan's biggest challenges going forward? >> i think to look ahead after 75 years of independence and after 75 years you have to look back. the partition was painful

and personal to the millions that were displaced between the two countries and personal experiences have been handed down to generations that now hold power and sway within pakistan as well as india and we do have a situation where these two countries who have a shared legacy of partition do half hostilities with one another, pakistan is a in a interesting geographical position, it's neighbors are afghanistan, china and india and pakistan has its own complicated relationship with each of these countries. there is a lot of celebration, there were flag ceremonies, late into the night there were fireworks but there is a lot of polarization within pakistan as well. the leader of the opposition held a massive rally where people came out to a rallying

call for a change in the country. people have a lot of hope, they want better. there is a economic crisis that has abated was still continuing and there is of course also the external problem of climate change and extreme weather that is not just limited to pakistan, it is a south asian problem which his impacting both india and pakistan considerably in the past summer. we have had extreme heat waves and in july we saw over 500 people die in extreme flooding which experts have said is linked to climate change. it is a situation that both india and pakistan will somehow have to sit together to discuss how these issues which will impact their population in the near future, how they can come together to counter these problems and somehow reconcile

for a better future for both countries. >> plenty of challenges on many fronts. thank you so much. turning to afghanistan where women have all but vanished from public life under the taliban, no longer do they hold important positions in the government and society. we spoke with two afghan women who were judged before they were forced out by the taliban. >> reporter: chaos as the taliban grabbed power. one of their first tasks, erasing women from public life. she is one of them. >> is a big problem for all women judges and that is the darkest day in our life. >> reporter: she is safe living in london but her colleague

remains trapped in afghanistan. we are not revealing her identity. >> it was a black day for me, i could not believe that one day i would be and from my job. >> reporter: these two women were once a month the trail blazers of afghanistan, female judges that sat on a court for the elimination of violence against women. it presided against cases. it was dangerous work. in january 2021, two female supreme court just judges were shot dead by unidentified gunmen. after the taliban seized power. the women's court was shut down. the judges fired and they tell us their bank accounts were frozen. the women say they felt afraid and wanted to seek asylum. >> we worried about everything, our situation and our lives. our security especially. it was a hard time.

>> reporter: a leading british lawmaker says her phone was inundated with messages from dozens of desperate judges. >> it started by receiving terrified missives from people. >> reporter: kennedy and her colleagues raised money privately for evacuations, eventually getting 103 women, most of them judges and their families out of the country but the journey to safety was terrifying. her and her family ordered a bus for a 12 hour drive with headlights switched off. >> were you scared? yes. >> it was hard for me and my family. >> reporter: hidden in her close was her greatest treasure. her education. >> i have 4-5 degrees, it is important for us.

i put it on my back. >> you head your degrees in the back of your dress. >> yes. >> reporter: she eventually made it to the uk that they are among 80 other female judges still in afghanistan, some living in hiding. >> our life now, i live like a prisoner, please help us. do not forget us. >> reporter: with the women's court now shuttered, she fears for those she wants detected. >> you will defend women now? >> there is no one. >> reporter: little hope left for the women and girls in afghanistan. cnn, london. millions more u.s. children going back to school but coronavirus protocols can be different as the cdc revised

its guidelines. sweeping changes are on the way for medicare. we will have a look at what is in the landmark will headed for the presidents desk. stay with us. that's also gentle on skin. for wrinkle results in onene week. neutrogena®. for people with skin.

the u.s. fda says the benefits of the new vaccine strategy outweigh the risks, last week the fda announced that healthcare providers can give smaller doses of the vaccine. the fda says cutting the dosage provides similar protection while making more shots available. soaring demand cannot keep up with limited supplies now. many children in the u.s. are already back in school and many more will be going in in the coming months. after the cdc relaxed protocols last week, their school experience will likely be

different from the last two years. we have details from the changes in reaction from educators. >> reporter: the cdc's new guidelines are loosening restrictions on some of the policies we have seen since the beginning of the pandemic including no longer needing to social distance. of course those guidelines also impacted schools. is take a look at some of the changes, it is now okay for different classrooms to mix, we are moving away from guidelines that required students to stay isolated and then there is the test to stay policy, schoolchildren exposed to the virus no longer need to take regular tests and test negative to stay in the classroom. we spoke to a analyst why he believes the cdc is changing guidelines now. >> i think the cdc has given up on trying to prevent transmission of the virus. they are focusing on trying to mitigate the disruption to our

lives. about three dozen people are dying every week in the u.s., there are 40 thousand hospitalized so we are far from the pandemic being over, when i see the cdc tell people do not worry about social distancing anymore, to me it is like they have thrown their hands into the air. >> we reached out to the atlanta public school district, they have 52,000 students and their teachers are required to undergo mandatory covid-19 testing once a week. we reached out and asked, are you going to change any of these policies in light of the new guidelines? this was the response, atlantic public schools is reviewing their newly released guidance for schools, in addition we are awaiting updated guidance for the public health department. we consider recommendations from cdc, the georgia department of health and monitor the impact of covid-19

on our school district. we also heard from the national education association's president saying just because the cdc has new guidelines, that does not mean that the virus is gone. she is urging teachers and students to take those safety precautions to prevent spreading or contracting the virus. cnn, atlanta. the u.s. is a signature away from some of the biggest changes to medicare in two decades. >> the motion is adopted. >> the changes are part of the climate tax and health care bill the house of representatives passed on friday. it is now heading for joe biden's desk. health provisions will allow medicare to negotiate the price of prescription drugs and limits the growth of drug costs and caps how much enrollees have to pay for medications including insulin.

those changes can also help tackle inflation. >> reducing costs and medicare is one of the ways the bill reduces the federal deficit and when we reduce the deficit we are helping on the inflation because that is complementary to what the fed is trying to get done. in addition to lower costs for consumers we are also lowering the cost on the federal balance sheet. >> while the bill marks a landmark achievement for democrats, it is more narrow than some had hoped. the changes only help some seniors and people with disabilities enrolled in medicare and fewer drugs are subject to negotiation the democrats hoped. also caps on price growth and insulin calls only apply to medicare and not by the insurance and that is due to rules democrats had to rely on to get the bill passed in the senate. earlier i spoke with alice, the associate professor for research at the high school of public policy. i asked her, how soon americans

can expect to feel the changes from this bill. >> some of the benefits will be immediate, for certain patients. i think the really important thing to keep in mind is there is this longer-term consequence of how it affects drug innovation. and incentives we have to give innovators to develop drugs. in some sense, when you reduce revenues for drug innovators, there will be fewer drugs being developed undoubtedly. the question is, how many fewer life-saving drugs will we see for the level of expenditure reduction we are experiencing. it is a double edge sword we are trying to balance between reducing costs for patients while making sure the drug innovation continues to develop. >> i will have more coming up

in the next hour. record temperatures, droughts and wildfires, people look for relief, i have details after the break. stay with us. ghaa. yeah, i'm not really sure if this is wororking either.

portugal's worst wildfire in five years is now under control. impinging fire has burned 37,000 acres. a geologically unique region. fire crews hope to fully extinguish the blaze in today's. meanwhile firefighters him several countries are joining forces to help battle multiple wildfires and friends. first, goodman joins me from madrid. let's start with the fires, what is the latest on the efforts to contain them. >> reporter: the focus is on the big fire in france. near the city of bordeaux, it has been burning for days, officials say it is not

advancing but they are on high alert because there are expectations of dry thunderstorms with lightning that can reignite parts of the fire or start new fires. at thousand ranch firefighters have been joined by 360 from other countries in europe. about 10,000 acres have been burned in that fire and it is not the only one in france, there are others in the west and south. there is a department in the french alps that have banned fireworks hoping they will not inadvertently start more forest fires in france has seen 20 times more land burned than last year. in portugal, they have had more land burned as a percentage of the total more than any other. in spain there have been wildfires burning everyday. their military emergency unit has water bombers to help local authorities with the fires but

on saturday night, they announced they are redeploying the bombers to other places, to a fire in the east and west, it is the 4th heatwave for many europe union nations, the uk had its hottest july in 80 years, spain in 60, it is extreme drought and heat on the scene. >> staying in spain where you are, we spoke about a deadly stage collapse linked to a weather event, bring us up to speed. >> reporter: the latest is the festival organizers have canceled the festival after a 22-year-old man died and 32 were injured, five are still in the hospital after these strong winds at 4 am on saturday. 50,000 people in a beach town along the mediterranean on spain's eastern coast.

the strong wind blew in and blew down portions of the stage and the main entrance. the organizers initially suspended later in the day and they canceled it due to extreme unpredictable weather and they offered condolences and that is under investigation. now turning to you karen, we are seeing big picture here, the weather is changing in western europe. >> it is, we are looking at huge changes. some welcome relief but some of the rainfall will be heavy. severe thunderstorm warning's for portions of the uk where we have seen excessive heat. they are saying it is one of the driest summers on record for england since 1935 but not just across the uk, also into ireland but also into france and the netherlands and as a result the temperatures will be cooler, dramatically cooler as we go into the next 3-5 days.

showers start to move in. we have showers and sections of eastern europe as well with a few scattered showers. just moving over across portions of germany and also into poland. look at london. temperatures in the low 30s sunday and that we are close to 30 on monday and then look at some of the wet weather moving in. eight dramatically cooler temperatures, only in the 20s, 24 degrees is the average high. this looks impressive as far as precipitation across europe is concerned, some areas may see brief but heavy rainfall, even paris is in on that over the next 48 hours. some showers and storms moving into central europe so that will be welcome news. do not expect these to be drought busters. in portugal, 45% of the country is under extreme drought. in the u.s., some big problems across california.

in the interior west, it will be monsoon storms that will start to ramp up over the next several days. take a look at these temperatures all the way from sacramento, down towards baker field. temperatures in the 40s. excessively hot, almost 8 million will be suffering from what has been the weeks of dreadfully hot weather and no signs of precipitation in the forecast here but definitely wet weather with a monsoon across the southwest. back to you. >> thank you very much. that wraps this hour of cnn newsroom, will be back in a moment with more news, please stay with us. do you find yourself buried in
