to obtain a personal safety device from us. >> to make the noise, you pull out the pin. and it scares people away. and alerts people around you. >> it was simultaneously heartbreaking but also motivating to see so many people come out. i think it highlighted the need and the fears that many folks like me are experiencing right now. >> thank you so much. >> thank you so much. >> stay safe. bye. >> i hope that it works, save lives, that's our only hope moving forward. >> to learn all the ways michelle and her organization are working to combat asian hate you can go to cnn heros.com. >> well this was really fun. >> for me too. thanks for watching everyone. and we'll see you next week. our coverage

welcome to all of you watching here in the united states, canada and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. ahead, the two candidates who want to represent georgia in the u.s. senate took to the stage last night. you will hear some of key moments from the debate just ahead. president biden gives his support to protesters in iran as this video sparks fresh outrage. and later massive flooding is causing thousands in southeast australia to evacuate their homes. we'll bring you the latest on the search and rescue operations. live from cnn center, this is "cnn newsroom" with kim brunhuber. >> we begin with one of the most closely watched senate races in the country as control of the u.s. senate hangs in the balance. the one and only debate between current georgia senator warnock and former football star herschel walker was held friday

night with plenty of dodging and deflection. one bone of contention was someone who wasn't even on the stage, president biden. listen to this. >> senator warnock said he stood up. he did not stand up to biden. he wouldn't have voted with him 96% of the time and gave us open border which gave us high inflation, which gave us crime in the streets. you talk about standing up? he didn't stand up. >> he said that he would not have voted for the "inflation reduction act" and i think he should tell the people of georgia why he thinks that they should have expensive insulin and why the pharmaceutical companies should be able to charge us whatever they like. >> first of all, may i respond? i believe in reducing insulin, but at the same time, you got to eat right because he may not know and i know many people that is on insulin, and unless you are eating right, insulin is doing you no good. so you have to get food prices down and you got get gas down so

that they can go get insulin. >> another contentious topic, crime with senator warnock defending his record of supporting police while attacking walker for cliaiming that he is a police officer. >> you can support police officers as i've done through the cops program, through the invest to protect program, while at the same time holding police officers like all professions accountable. one thing i have not done, i've never pretended to be a police officer and i've never -- i've never threatened a shoot-out with the police. >> i have to respond to that. >> we are moving on, gentleman -- >> i have to respond to that. you know what is so funny, i am with many police officers and at the same time have -- >> mr. walker -- >> and of course recent reports

that you can with aer who says that he is against abortion paid for a former girlfriend to have an abortion. listen to this. >> this week you said that the accusations are, quote, all lies. for the voters watching tonight, can you explain the circumstances surrounding these claims? you have 60 seconds. >> as i said, that is a lie. you know, i put it in a book, one thing about my life, i've been very transparent. unlike the senator, he's hid things. but at the same time, i said that is a lie and on abortion, i'm a christian. i believe in life. >> we are witnessing right now what happens when politicians, most of them men, pile into patients' rooms. you get what you are seeing right now. and the women of georgia, the women of georgia, deserves a senator who will stand with them. >> recent polls show senator warnock continuing to hold an advantage over walker. according to a new poll from

quinnipiac university, margin between the two has changed little compared with polling conducted before the recent allegations against walker. joining me now is tchia mitchel from the atlantic journal constitution. thanks for being with us. what stood out for you from the debate? >> what stood out for me is, number one, herschel walker was more prepared, a better debater than i think a lot of people expected. and i think that helped him to perhaps convince some skeptical voters, skeptical republicans, sceptical conservatives that they should stick with him. >> was that just a case of walker meeting or exceeding low expectations do you think? >> yes, i think, you know, for the people who were looking for a reason to stick with herschel walker, i think that he gave it to them. you know, i don't necessarily

think that any minds were changed by either candidate, but i think the people who, you know, wanted a reason, you know, give themselves something where they can say, okay, i'm okay, i'll stick with herschel walker, i think that he gave it to them. i also think, you know, reverend warnock, senator warnock, was running on his record and of course he had better answers, more specific answers when it came to some of the policy questions. it was also clear that herschel walker, a big mission of his during the debate was to tie senator warnock to president biden as off an as he could. he said it many times. you could see the crowd starting to react because that became kind of a common refrain from herschel walker was to keep saying, you know, raphael warnock is lock step with president biden. and i think -- >> is he trying to do that

because of biden's unpopularity, will that be a huge factor in this race? >> yeah, i mean i do think the goal is to tie senator warnock to an unpopular incumbent president. and also kind of tangential to that is to say that if you want to pivot away from democratic control, pivot away from the biden agenda, then you've got to get more republicans into the senate. you've got to get rid of these democratic senators who are helping biden carry out his agenda. so that was something that herschel walker also really stressed. >> but he did also acknowledge the fact that joe biden won the presidency. >> he did acknowledge that joe biden was the winner. he acknowledged that senator warnock was the winner. both candidates said that they would accept the outcome of the

election even if they lost. >> so do you think that will actually make a difference to republican voters and to donald trump himself? >> no, i don't, because i think even donald trump knows that something that herschel walker needs to say is to be very damaging in a swing state like georgia if, you know, herschel walker pushed that election denialism on a stage like the debate. >> as a candidate, what does it say that the race is so close despite the fact that walker has been dogged by so many controversies? >> well, it says that republicans above all are really, really focused on getting back the majority in the senate. so for them, it is about aligning with the candidate they have and the candidate they have in georgia is herschel walker.

and so we're seeing that lot of republicans are willing to overlook problematic behavior to elect the candidate that they think will help them best carry out their agenda. we saw that with president trump. you would hear republicans saying, well, i don't like everything he says or i don't like everything he does, but i'm still going to be with him because i like what he says he's going to do. so we're seeing that -- >> looking big picture, on monday republican brian kemp and stacey abrams will be debating in the race for georgia governor. so this state is billed as a swing state, but kemp has a sizable lead and we already talked about how close the senate race is. so it is possible that republicans not only keep what they have but make gains. so were those predictions of georgia as a purple state sort of overblown? >> i don't think that they were overblown. i think georgia is a public spell state which means on any given election, either a

republican or a democrat could win. and we know that means in elections it is all about message, turnout, and the candidates matter too. you know, the dynamics of the governor's race are a little different because it is not an open seat. you do have an incumbent. and that is why the governor's race is different in the senate race where the incumbent is a democrat. in the governor's race the incumbent is a republican. but i still don't think it takes away from the fact that georgia is a swing state. now, democrats do need to show that they can sustain the victories that they have had and that it not be considered just a fluke. >> absolutely. and people talk about these sort of kemp/warnock voters that are voting for both incumbents, one from either party and how those represent that slim middle that so many people are going after. it is a fascinating race with

huge national implications. we'll be watching. thank you for your analysis. u.s. justice department has formally appealed the appointment of a third party known as a special master to review documents seized from former president trump's mar-a-lago estate. the doj says the judge that granted trump's request for the special master had no authority to do so. it also said trump had no basis to interfere with the review of executive branch documents and never made any claim of attorney/client privilege. federal agents seized some 11,000 documents when they carried out a search warrant in august including about 100 documents marked classified. ukraine is reporting new russian strikes on at least two cities. a short time ago an apparent rocket attack outside kyiv caused severe damage to an energy infrastructure facility while multiple missiles and

kamikaze drones struck zaporizhzhia. officials say it damaged infrastructure there and caused a fire. there are no reports of any casualties yet at either location. meanwhile ukraine is claiming success in the east saying it struck a railway hub in the luhansk region friday putting a significant amount of russian weapons out of commission. russia does appear to be making steady progress in the donetsk region. the bridge linking crimea with russia supposedly will be back up and running but not until last july. it was damaged in an explosion last week which led russia to release a barrage of missile strikes across ukraine. vladimir putin says there is no need to continue those strikes but he doesn't feel sorry about them either. listen to this. >> translator: i have no regrets. what is happening today in ukraine is unpleasant. but this is all the same result

we would have received later. only in much worse conditions for us. >> more u.s. weapons will be headed ukraine's way following the white house approval of a new batch of military aid, it which is more ammunition for the himars rocket launchers and we also humvees and radiation missiles. it contains $725 million worth of military hardware and that adds up to more than $18 billion in u.s. security assistance since january 2021. but as ukraine receives more u.s. weapons, russia is reportedly struggling to replenish its own. by some estimates, russia has lost more than 6,000 pieces of military equipment since the war began and the u.s. officials say western sanctions are now hindering russia's ability to acquire components to make new weapons. that is affecting the production of everything from munitions to tanks, aircraft and submarines. u.s. officials say this is causing russia so try to find new ways to get around the

sanctions. now russia was set to go ahead with a planned evacuation of civilians from the occupied kherson region on friday. as cnn's nick paton walsh reports, ukrainian forces are making a strong push to regain territory there. >> reporter: night is when the push for the south busies. humvees speed the roads. munitions light up the night. at dusk the excites alight with air defenses around the russian-held heavily defended town gist three miles south of here. it is the gateway to the big prize, the city of kherson where russia is already evacuating civilians and low on supplies. they say shelling has been noticeably less over the past month and a half, partly because of the damage done to supply lines the russians need to bring munitions towards the front here. radio chatter intercepted between russians here is of ammo

running out and con cscripts fleeing. [ speaking nonenglish ] >> reporter: in three days moving around the front lines here, it is clear ukraine's movement forward has met hardened russian defense. even if they are low on ammo. on this tree line to the west, russian paratroopers are under a mile away. [ speaking nonenglish ] new trenches are being dug and camouflage laid out. nature is about to turn on both sides equally. obviously in the winter the cover of the trees will be gone and so there is a race here to prepare new positions so they can't be seen by russian drones in the winter. a mix of the oldest type of

warfare, an oven heating bunk beds under ground here. a place for their rifles. this for five people. this is where they will be during the winter if they are still here. and the newest, this is and an ten that for starlink. billionaire elon musk's satellite internet service sending a live stream of drone footage of the artillery battle here. this is where that signal is sent. and this is a farmer turned drone warfare commander. and then the lethal impact of a billionaire's internet service and store-bought drones. a hit on a russian vehicle. the black smoke under the mouse cu

cursor. they show us video of several impacts that day. they know they will be hit back. in the villages in kherson, we see how fierce the fight for each village has been. ukraine is slowly moving forward, but every farm is a slog. smoke crawling over every hill. one of russia's largest bombs hit here. nothing left to come back for if you once lived in these homes. it is as if this waste land is telling the kremlin it is time to leave. but they think there is more damage left to do before the inevitable happens. nick paton walsh, cnn, ukraine. wall street wraps up a roller coaster week with mixed results. up next, a look at what caused

u.s. stocks wrapped up a volatile week of trading with a friday slump that erased many of the rebound gains earned on thursday. dow managed to post a small win for the week while the s&p and nasdaq ended on down notes. this is a wrap of the week and a look ahead. >> another week, another bumpy ride on wall street. the dow closing lower friday by more than 400 points, although it ended the week higher. not so for the s&p and nasdaq which both ended the week in the red. the week also brought with it too hotter than expected inflation reports, both producer price index which measures factory or wholesale level inflation and the consumer price index rose more than expected for the month of september. consumer prices rose 10.4% monthly. and costs continue to rise in

essential categories like shelter, medical care and food. the report illustrating that inflation has spread beyond volatile categories like food and energy. core inflation which strips away those two categories rose 0.6% in september or 6% annually. that is a fresh 40 year high. the stubbornly high inflation also reflected in separate government released data. consumer spending in september was flat compared to the month prior. while americans continue to spend at restaurants, bars and clothing stores, sales fell in other areas like electronics, appliances and furniture. the chief economist for the national retail federation saying in a statement in part, inflation is the main factor that is determining how much shoppers are willing to spend. households are tapping into savings, accessing credit, and reducing their savings contributions as they meet higher prices head-on. third quarter corporate earnings season also kicked off this week.

jpmorgan beat wall street expectations for revenue and earnings. and also beating u.s. bank corp and wells ss fargo. next week we'll hear from other major companies like netflix. and americans looking for a break on their student loans can start working on their applications now. the website for student debt relief is open in beta mode. president biden announced in august that he would cancel up to $10,000 in student loan debt for people making less than $125,000 a year. that figure could go as high as $20,000 for people who also got spell grants for their tuition. once the application is processed, debt relief could come in a matter of weeks. now to the political upheaval in the uk where the newly appointed finance minister jeremy hunt has a big priority, he is set to deliver the government's fiscal plan at the end of this month. hunt got the job friday after

liz truss fired the previous chancellor. hunt admitted mistakes had been made with the truss government's controversial measures and difficult decisions lie ahead. stocks in london closed up slightly on friday, weeks after the mini budget sent the pound and bond markets tumbling. critics say the prime minister made the latest u-turn to save her own job. >> reporter: marking 38 disastrous days in office for the truss government, the prime minister's trusted ally and economic kin drid spirit has been sacked. but her mission remains about. >> it is clear that parts of our mini budget went further and faster than markets were expecting. >> now, mr. speaker -- >> reporter: after delivering the mini budget just three weeks ago that sent the pound

plummeting promising huge tax cuts and increased borrowing, he was shown the door friday. speculation over his political future had become a distraction, a senior source inside downing street told cnn. echoing similar excuse issued last week when the government u-turned on their announcement cutting the top rate of tax. that too had become a distraction. >> what a day. it has been tough. >> reporter: now another u-turn on corporation tax. truss said she will keep corporation tax at its current rate reversing her policy to plan the rise from 19% to 25%. how will this all impact the beleaguered prime minister remains to be seen. he had been a key confidant, the speaker who introduced her at her campaign events. he could be forgiven for feeling scapegoated by a prime minister in peril. after all, it was policliz trus campaigned on the mini budget.

welcome back. security forces in beijing are on high alert for any possible

disruptions as the communist party prepares to convene party congress in the coming hours. they are only held every five years and president xi jinping is expected to use the forum to secure a third term as general secretary. that is the most powerful position in the chinese government, and it would cement xi's iron grip for years to come. in beijing a rare display of anti-government banners ahead of the congress was quickly taken down by police. all videos and mentions of it have now been scrubbed from china's internet. steven jiang is standing by with more. what are we likely to see and hear from president xi? >> reporter: despite extraordinary protests you mentioned and the opaque nature of the communist party, i think people are pretty clear that xi jinping is here to stay. likely far beyond the third five year term you mentioned.

it is widely expected that there will be no hint of any success plan really paving the way for him to rule for life. so the entire party and indeed the entire nation is clear, this is now a one man show. since he took power a decade ago, xi jinping's central governing philosophy has become increasingly clear that he is trying to restore the party's dominance in every aspect of chinese society, not just politics but also in the economy, in ideology and even in people's personal lives. and he is the only man who can do it. and then to restore china's rightful place on the global stage. so that is why the whole world will be paying close attention to what he says in the coming week especially in that opening day speech on sunday. and especially on the sharp slowdown of the economy which is the world's second largest. and people will be trying to find out if he will drop any hints of reorienting the economy to the market again with less state interference or will he say the opposite by shifting the party's top priority from economic growth to national

security especially in preparation for more confrontation or even potential conflict with the united states. >> we'll be watching for that. and then shifting gears, the timing of a new covid outbreak couldn't be worse for chinese officials. but that is basically what they are facing now, right? >> when you look at the numbers 1rks 100 cases reported on saturday out after a country of 1.4 billion people. no one will bat an eye outside of china. but they have a strict zero covid policy. and xi jinping has put his personal stamp of approval on this policy. so for many local officials, this is really less about science or public health, more about showing political loyalty to him despite mounting evidence that it is not working, it is increasingly costly and generating so much frustration and resentment toward local authorities. so in a way, this is really going back to that impact some would say devastating impact of so many power concentrated in

one man's hands. >> really appreciate it, steven jiang. jobe biden is saying that h was stunned by how the protestors reacted to the death of mahsa amini while in the cuss difference the morality police. and in tehran, new video obtained by cnn from iran wire shows male security forces surrounding and grabbing a woman in the street. it has been shared widely by persian language news channels outside the country. jomana karedsheh is monitoring events. so with things already so tense, how are iranians reacting to this latest dramatic video? >> reporter: it is very dramatic, very disturbing, really horrific when you see this young woman that is being described by state media as the ringleader of women protestors out on the streets in tehran. and when you see how she was

surrounded by all these armed men, and she was grabbed by them, it is absolutely terrifying to try and put yourself in her shoes and what she was going through. and as you mentioned, this clip has gone viral over the past 24 hours. it is being reported by iranian media and you've got, you know, iranian regime unable really not to address this to show you how significant this moment captured on camera is, they are going to have to explain this to their own supporters. when you see what some would describe as this hypocrisy caught on camera, iranian vice president for women's affairs saying that women shouldn't be disrespected like that, that she's asked for an investigation into this incident. you've got the tehran police also saying that they are investigating this, that this doesn't follow the behavior of

the police in general. but human rights organizations would tell you this is exactly the sort of behavior that they have been documenting for weeks now. what has been going on during these protests. amnesty international came just a few weeks ago saying that they have documented many cases where these unveiled women out on the streets protesting are being grabbed and dragged by their hair, where they are being sexually assaulted, their breasts groped by these police officers as they are being detained. and we don't even know what happens after that when they are in detention. really horrific stories that we have been hearing coming out of iran. and that sort of scene is what feeds the anger of those who are out on the streets. >> yeah, just shocking as you say. jomana karedsheh, thanks so much. the israeli army says its soldiers killed a man who opened fire near a settlement in the occupied west bank friday night. the shooting comes hours after

clashes erupted in east jerusalem for a sixth straight night. hadas gold has more from jerusalem. >> reporter: for days now parts of east jerusalem have been smoldering as the new daily violence seemingly seeps into the holy city. late thursday night clashes in the flash point neighborhood reminiscent of the violence in the city that helped spark last year's deadly 11 day war from hamas and israel. groups of palestinians and israelis throwing stones. some setting off fireworks. rocks letter the ground, car windows shattered in a neighborhood just minutes from the old city.recting barricades they arrest more than a dozen. and unholstering a gun and yelling at police, if they throw

stones, shoot them. at least five palestinians and two israelis sent to the hospital as a result of injuries from stones and beatings. clashes also erupted in other parts of east jerusalem, an area considered occupied by most of the international community. more than 100,000 residents of the refugee camp blockaded for days after a palestinian shot dead one israeli soldier and critically wounded another at the military checkpoint. as israeli forces search for the suspects still on the run, residents threw stones at soldiers and burned tires. the situation in jerusalem starting to mirror the worrying situation in the west bank. on friday, two more palestinians were killed in the west bank town of jeanine in what the military said was a shootout with militants while they were in the camp to arrest a member of the hamas militant group. these near daily military raids

and more frequent palestinian attacks have made a this the deadliest year for palestinians and israelis since 2015. as more and more young palestinians pick up arms and militant hot spots, with seemingly no political force in sight to stop what has become an endless cycle. and overnight more violence, israeli army reporting that they shot and killed a palestinian assailant who shot and israeli settlement in the west bank injuring one man. but as the jewish high holidays come to a close, this monday, and israeli elections are coming on november 1, it doesn't feel as though there is anything really being done on any political level to try to stem this cycle of violence. in fact it just feels as though the tensions and the clashes and the violence could possibly just get worse. hadas gold, cnn, jerusalem. turkey's president is expected to visit the town in the country's north where exhausted rescuers are searching

for survivors of a deadly coal mine explosion. the country's health minister says at least 28 people are dead and dozens are reported trapped in the rubble. the blast happened near the black sea on friday. what sparked the explosion is still unclear, but the energy minister earlier indicated there may have been a naturally occurring gas like methane in the mine. 110 people were working there at the time of the blast. we're tracking another powerful weather system as tropical depression karl brings the threat of flash flooding and mud slides to mexico. we'll get the latest forecast ahead. please stay with us. the face of clean. the face of whoa. some are of intensitity, others, joy. all are of - ahhhh. listerine. feel the whoa!

tropical depression karl is making its way across southern mexico. the storm is expected to bring heavy rain through sunday that could produce flash flooding and mudslides in several mexican states. derek van dam is joining us. so yesterday karl when we talked

was a tropical storm. has the storm weakened at all? >> it has and that is good news. we want to see that across southern mexico. it is no longer this formidable threat that it was 24, 36 hours ago. i was talking about it with my colleagues. we saw it go from a tropical storm, it was teetering on a hurricane, and now it is a tropical depression. and the reason it has weakened is because a couple different factors. there is a lot of dry air around, so battling that, but also strong upper level winds. hurricanes, tropical storms, typhoons, they don't do well when put up against the strong winds that don't allow formation of the strengthening to occur. however, i don't want to downplay the rain threat. we're still getting a lot of convection and showers and thunderstorms especially across tabasco and into vera cruz and also the oacaca.

and you can see the southern periphery of the storm. and good news from the meteorological agencies in mexico, actually canceling the warnings along the coastline. so not much in terms of watches and warnings in place at the moment. in fact none at all. a lot of dry air anywhere that you see the shading of brunn surrs brown that is dry air trying to intrude in preventing any further development from taking place. the winds going forward today may be gusting 25, 35 miles per hour roughly, 50 kilometers per hour, but weakening as it does so. but keep in mind this is mountainous terrain. so as the depression makes its way onshore within the next 12 hours from the bay of campeche into the coastal areas, this will basically wring out all the available moisture. so mountainous regions so we have the potential for landslides and mudslides because rain will accumulate 3 to 5
