newsroom" -- >> i'm hesitant to talk about any subpoenas, et cetera. but i have been interviewed by the fbi. >> jack smith and his team are looking at rusty bowers as a witness. this lab test has shown it is positive for cocaine. >> the working theory is it was likely a visitor. are you confident that it was not a white house staffer? >> the investigations will get to the bottom of this. >> these boxes obviously contain signatures of real -- >> they are trying to sneak an election in august when people are on vacation, when they are getting ready to school, when you are not used to voting and they are doing that on purpose. we begin with breaking news. alexander lukashenko says yevgeny prigozhin is now in st. petersburg, russia. he led his mercenary fighters in
1:02 am
a brief rebellion two weeks ago. they seized the russian city of rostov-on-don. >> and they gave up their rebellion after just a few days. he reportedly agreed to exile in belarus. and again the president lukashenko said at a news conference that one of our correspondents matthew chance was at that prigozhin is now in st. petersburg, russia. and matthew noted this contradicted earlier statements. we're still trying to get a better sense where he's been and of course we'll continue to follow the story. >> so many questions. why. we'll bring it to you later. now new revelations into the justice department's 2020 election interference investigation. republican rusty bowers tells kaitlan collins investigators seem to have a lot of evidence in a very broad probe.
1:03 am
>> i offered them nothing new. they seemed to have a good grasp on all the testimony that i had given and all of the interviews that i have given to the arizona republic and people from the "washington post." they were very aware of the january 6 committee testimony that i gave. there may have been something that i said that was of interest. but i don't remember anything standing out that had not been mentioned before. >> did you turnover any documents to them? >> that, i don't remember. i know i gave a lot of documents to my attorney. and i still have a lot of documents. but i don't know if they are important or not. >> bowers is the highest ranking republican known to have spoken with investigators about direct conversations about trump and his campaign.
1:04 am
>> the justice department is also reviewing new details about the 2022 search of mar-a-lago. newly releaseduments show investigators had surveillance video ofple moving boxes around the florida property. thments -- say a person identified as witness 5 moved boxes around the estate throughout 2022 including 11 brown card board boxes and one with no lid that appeared to contain papers. >> witness forgave appears to be walt nauta who has been indicted along with the former president. prosecutors have alleged that trump asked him to move the boxes containing secret and classified material just before the fbi searched mar-a-lago last sawing. nauta is expected to plead not guilty in a miami federal court today. his arraignment has postponed twice already because he didn't have an attorney. federal prosecutors believe a post donald trump made on truth social may have provided
1:05 am
guidance for an armed man arrested in barack obama's neighborhood. 37-year-old taylor taranto was already wanted on charges related to the capitol riot when trump posted what he claimed was a obama's washington address. >> taranto reposted it and then posted we got these losers surrounded, see you in hell. it appears poe dedesta is refer to the 2016 campaign manager for hillary clinton. and after the post taranto showed up in obama's neighborhood live streaming on youtube. caitlin katelyn polantz picks u strange story. >> reporter: mr. taranto was arrested in the neighborhood the obamas live in because he had talked about wanting to get in to that area, in through tunnels or entrances of some sort last
1:06 am
week. he has been detained ever since. but the story of taylor taranto and how he arrived encounters the secret service in this residential neighborhood in washington, d.c. is one that really shows the long arc of january 6. so this is a man now accused of being there on january 6 at the capitol riot scuffling with police officers, he carried a cane, and since then had been posting quite a bit on social media about being an insurrectionist he said at one point and then he was live streaming himself talking about january 6 at an elementary school, he had gotten into a gymnasium at an elementary school because he said on his live stream that he wanted startle a democratic lawmaker opposed to trump supporters and opposed to january 6. after that, he was live
1:07 am
streaming himself basically say being he had a van or a carve some sort that was self-detonating and could be positioned or sent by him to outside the federal building, national institute of standards and technology, that is when federal authorities picked up on him and then the next day is when they find him at the obama -- outside of the obama residence with his van, which had two guns in it and a lot of ammo, machete as well and a mattress because day tore take ran taylor tar ran toe appeared to have been living in the washington, d.c. area for two months. his argues say he shouldn't be held because he has a family in washington state and mental health services that can help him there. but he currently is being detained and the judge is looking at him on thursday and going to decide whether he should still remain behind bars as the case against him
1:08 am
progresses. katelyn polantz, cnn, washington. another member of the u.s. president's inner circle could arrive in china anytime now. >> janet yellen's visit is aimed at deepening the communication between the two large economies and easing tension. she is expected to meet with chai's new economic leaders but not the chinese president himself. >> anna coren has been following this live for us. >> reporter: and we know the u.s. treasury secretary will land in beijing shortly. she will continue attempts to improve u.s./china relations which as we know have been at an all-time low. secretary of state antony blinken was in beijing just two weeks ago. janet yellen is expected to receive a warm welcome because of her economic pragmatism, beijing sees her as this voice of reason within the biden administration which she's pushed to maintain economic ties
1:09 am
with china. she's argued against tariffs and restrictions and while giving testimony back in congress, she warned decoupling would be disastrous. we understand that she will be meeting with her chinese counterpart and other high ranking officials, but she is not expected to be meeting with the chinese leader xi jinping. this is not going to be a love fest. treasury secretary has spoken out against china's human rights record, and believes american supply chains need to diversify away from china. but yellen will be working to convince beijing that the u.s. is not trying to harm or contain the chinese economy blocking access to technology such as semiconductors in the name of national security. this is something that beijing does not buy. and just this week, china retaliated by announcing that it would redistrstrict the excerta
1:10 am
minerals. and we just heard from china's commerce ministry criticizing further u.s. restrictions on chip exports to china saying that it would be detrimental to chinese companies and will hinder global technology exchange and cooperation. but at the end of the day, the two economies are deeply entwined. $700 billion in trade between china and the united states occurs every year. and with the economic uncertainty across the globe, it only adds to the importance of the relationship. china struggling to reboot its economy post covid while the u.s. is trying to contain inflation. economically they both need each other. >> thank you, anna. someone brought a small bag of cocaine into the white house and the secret service wants to find out who. the drugs were found sunday this
1:11 am
a busy area used by staff and visitors. jar peremy diamond plexplains. >> reporter: they are doing everything they can to identify the person who brought this baggy into the white house. including dna testing, secret service officials i'm told are going through visitor logs as well as security camera footage. this all started on sunday evening when a white powdery substance was found inside a small dime sized bag in one of the cubbies. the white house press secretary jean-karine jean-pierre certain left the impression that it could have been a visitor going on a tour that left this bag there.
1:12 am
she said this a highly traveled area, this is where visitors are brought in when they go on these west wing tours. but when i asked whether or not she could rule out that it was a white house official, she could not do that saying she wouldn't speculate. she did express confidence in the secret service's investigation, but nonetheless that federal law enforcement official telling me they don't know if they will be able to identify who brought this baggy in, that is in part because of the number of people who would go through the west wing entrance and also how small the bag where the cocaine was making it that much more difficult to identify fingerprints or potential dna. but the investigation is ongoing. jeremy diamond, cnn, the white house. >> earlier cnn spoke with a former secret service agent and she explained why normal screening to get into the white house probably would not have
1:13 am
tee detected this small amount of cocaine. >> first thing is thinking who brings it in as far as an individual. especially if it is a tour guest or staff member, if you are bringing somebody for a tour and you are the one authorizing that person, you should know who you are bringing into that. it is a sacred place. that is the one thing. as far as security protocol, i hear you're saying somebody went through the perimeter checkpoints, the security. these are magnetometers, they are looking for weapons and any biochemical agent. this dime sized bag which is really small, that can pass through. somebody can hide that somewhere. you are not strip searching people. so i understand that everybody is like how did this get through. we're not talking about a large substance, we're talking about something super small. so unless you want to start stripping people down staff included at that checkpoint, that is something that will have to change in the protocol. meanwhile we're learning more about the man accused of shooting and killing five people
1:14 am
in philadelphia monday. kimbrady carriker told police that he carried out the shooting to clean up the neighborhood. philadelphia's district attorney says the suspect obviously planned this and all indications point towards him acting alone. and a warning to all of you that this following video is disturbing and may be hard to watch. this new footage shows what appears to be the suspect walking through the streets of philadelphia on monday. you can see smoke discharged from the object that the person is holding. carriker is currently held in custody without bail. philadelphia police say both of the guns found with the shooting suspect are what authorities call ghost guns, untraceable firearms often assembled from parts usually bought online. >> and they don't have sayial num s serial numbers and are hard to track. >> they don't have any markings, are not traceable. if he would have dropped that
1:15 am
weapon and got were a, we would have had no way to trace that weapon back to him. the city of philadelphia are suing two companies they say are among the largest supplies of ghost guns in the area. a press release accuses the companies of undermining states and federal laws to sell kits without background checks. and alexander lukashenko says that yevgeny prigozhin is now in st. petersburg, russia. >> nada bashir is joining us. we're limited in what we know, but the information we do have, what does it suggest, how surprising is it? >> there have been a lot of questions around prigozhin's whereabouts after the wagner group's attempted rebellion. we saw the troops marching with little resistance towards moscow just under two weeks ago. there have been questions of course around where many of the troops have now ended up and crucially where prigozhin has ended up. we know a deal was struck at the
1:16 am
time with belarus that yevgeny prigozhin would move to belarus, but we've just learned during a press conference that alexander lukashenko speaking to matthew chance confirming in his words that he believes that prigozhin is currently in st. petersburg, russia. of course at the time of the failed rebellion, we know president putin offered those who took part in the attempted rebellion three key options. they could either sign contracts with the russian defense ministry, other law enforcement groups. they could return home. but crucially the third option was to go to belarus. so belarus has played a crucial part in striking that deal. but the fact that prigozhin is not in belarus is certainly interesting and of course there are questions around the repercussions that yevgeny prigozhin may face if he is in fact in st. petersburg as lukashenko has now claimed. >> prigozhin always one step ahead it seems of everyone.
1:17 am
i mean, when you look at the situation, does it suggest to you he never went into exile in belarus or that he did and he came out in response to something? >> potentially. these are the questions that many will be asking, whether he did leave to belarus, whether some kind of other deal was truck with president putin. we know that prigozhin and putin has been at odds. prigozhin has been very company value critic of the generals on the ground and president putin's approach when it comes to the russian invasion of ukraine often calling publicly in videos for further weapons to be supplied to the wagner mercenaries working within ukrainian territory. and criticizing the lack of support that has been offered by the russian government and the russian defense ministry. so there are certainly a lot of questions around the relationship now between president putin and yevgeny prigozhin where that stands now given the fact that he is indeed in russia.
1:18 am
>> and there is a certain amount of incredulity when you consider how much any dissent a cracked down on in russia. that leader could undermine putin's power that much could be in russia. >> and matthew is in the press conference, he will be on air when he comes out. coming up, rescuers are digging through rubble trying to save lives after a deadly missile strike far from the frontlines in ukraine. and plus u.s. drones harassed by russian fighter jets. we'll have the latest on that. and later daniel radcliffe addresses rumors of whether he will have any pooany part of th adaptation of harry potter.

ukrainian officials say at least four people were killed and 34 injured in a russian missile strike on an apartment
1:23 am
building in lviv which is far from the eastern frontlines. rescuers are working to free people trapped in that rubble. president zelenskyy is promising a tangible response. >> he also accuses russia of possibly planning an attack on the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. president zelenskyy says russian forces are placing objects resembling explosives on roofs around the facility. he tells erin burnett why he believes that. >> i have intelligence, i have documents. i can't tell you what kind of documents. but it is something connecting with russia. they are technically ready to do something. >> dustin: have you point that they have local mining, they are technically railroaded.
1:24 am
>> president zelenskyy also got a little personal speaking about he does to simply get through this war. here is part of that conversation. >> we were talking before how nice it is to be -- >> yes, to see nature. >> to see nature and the sun. i know they say there are always drones, they are surveilling. you must appreciate being outside. >> yes, i'm happy to be. yes, i really don't have time. and i sit in the cabinet and of course it is really sometimes to find feeling from people, it is very important. when you see people outside and the air, they are clapping or they want just to shake your h hand, it is very important. it means that you do something important for people and this energy is important.
1:25 am
for me, just to see people it is important for me. not to lose the connection. >> as a human being, so many people look up to you, they rely on you. no one can imagine how hard that is. do you do anything for your yourself, are you ever able to take a minute to read or to listen to music or something to sort of give yourself that moment? >> i have suchment nos, important to be in silence, to be alone. how can i be alone. alone i can be with music or with a book. and early, early in the morning when there are no sounds -- >> no air raid sirens. >> no people, no -- i mean, our staff, but nobody is in my cabinet, nobody -- i can just read, think, and the music helps really. >> what music do you like? >> oh, i like ac/dc and
1:26 am
ukrainian music. of course i like ukrainian music a lot because ukrainian that is native language, that is why you understand not only music, but the words and et cetera. ac/dc, i don't understand all the words because of -- >> you like the music. >> i like the energy of ac/dc. i like eric clapton. a lot of -- guns and roses. maybe it is too old for -- >> i understand. we're the same. >> i love it. it is important to have sometimes 6:00, 7:00 in the morning some trainings -- >> workouts? >> yes, or to do something with music, with such music, which gives you energy for all the day. >> to get through, right. i mean, you are a human being. >> ac/dc, who knew. >> that really did surprise me. >> that is the big exclusive. >> wonderful to see those human
1:27 am
moments and him cracking a smile. >> he has to have a moment out of it hasn't he, but i presume no time. u.s. navy says it prevented iranian warships fm seizing two commercial oil tankers on weesday. both of these incidents in international waters. >> the navy recently stepped up patrols in response to rafiran'n going threats to commercial traffic. oren lieberman has our report. >> reporter: series of intense military encounters understanding the volatility of the region. it starts early wednesday morning when the u.s. navy says iranian navy vessel approached a commercial oil tanker. and before the tanker even issued any distress, a destroyer intervened getting close to the incident and according to the u.s. navy that is when the iranian navy veinvestvessel cha
1:28 am
course and headed away but about you just seven hours later, very near where the first incident happened, another iranian navy vessel approaches another commercial oil tanker, this time the navy vessel drew even closer hailing on that oil tanker to stop so it could be boarded or seized according to the u.s. navy. and the same destroyer responded at full speed. before it got there, personnel on board the iranian navy vessel opened fire with small arms hitting the oil tanker and doing damage to the ship. no personnel were injured on board the oil tanker but according to the u.s. navy some of those shots landed very close to the crew living quarters and in fact you can see some of the pictures where those shots hit and some of the shrapnel from those bullets in these images from the defense department. as the destroyer approached, the iranian navy vessel changed its heading and left that incident.
1:29 am
the u.s. has seen these sorts of encounters before, in fact it was in late april/early may after iran seized two commercial vessels within days of each other that the u.s. and its partner nations increased maritime and military patrols in the area specifically to avoid incidents like this. but even after all of this, the middle east wasn't done yet. several hours later in the skies over syria, three u.s. mq-9 reaper drones were conducting a mission against isis targets when according to u.s. air force central command, three russian fighter jets came in and you can see video of this encounter released from u.s. air force central. the russian fighters got in the way of the mq-9 reaper drones, dropped parachute flares and opened up full after burning forcing the u.s. drones to take evasive action against the heavier more powerful and faster russian fighters. the u.s. called it unsafe and unprofessional warning russia not to continue in this sort of
1:30 am
beh behavior. but we've seen russia continue down this path, getting close to u.s. aircraft, and even one case trying to dog fight a u.s. aircraft. and of course several months ago russian military aircraft actually hit a u.s. mq-9 reaper drone over the black sea forcing it down. oren lieberman, cnn, in the pentagon. a year after the u.s. supreme court struck down abortion rights, there are growing attempts to get it back on the ballot. and plus planet is shattering heat records. chad myers has the latest wake-up call in the climate crisis. . and officially now just in, june 2023 is globally the warmest june on record. details after this.

1:33 am
1:34 am
>planet's rising temperature is shattering heat records. new data shows last month was the hottest june on record by a large margin and that heat then carried into july as a new record high global average temperature was set on monday. and then broken the very next day. it is just the latest evidence that the earth is heating up much faster than expected. chad myers explains. >> just in from the climate change services, june of 2023 was the warmest june on record. and it really wasn't even close. 1.38 degrees celsius above pre-industrial levels, that is
1:35 am
2 1/2 degrees fahrenheit warmer than before we started burning fossil fuels. and it shouldn't be a surprise. nine out of past nine years have been the warmest on record. so i think at 2023, that will make that ten out of ten without a doubt. he wilel nino is likely partial mostly to blame because we have the cold water supposed to be off the west coast of the americas now being replaced by warm water from the western pacific. and when that happens, we change the weather globally. we even can effect the atlantic hurricane season. that can all be associated with apple theen yoe event. uk was over a degree warmer in june from the record. beijing was 41.1. they have been that warm in any june day ever. and obviously this big heat dome we had over texas for most of the honesty of june all, all of that contributed to june 2023 now being the warmest june of.

torrential downpours and floods have killed 50 people in southwest china and toppling buildings. state media say the flooding has killed at least 15 people and four others remain missing. xi jinping has ordered authorities to step up their prevention and response efforts as the country enters its main flood season. four counties have issued the highest level red alert warnings, more than 85,000 people have been displaced and hundreds of emergency teams have been deployed to help rescue and relief operations in the area. in new york this drone footage shows about 50 sharks swimming near the beach of a state park in long island. it is not clear what kind they are. one expert says likely sand sharks and they are causing alarm after five people were bitten by what they call a large marine animal in 24 hours alone. authorities say those were most
1:37 am
likely shark bites. long island is stepping up its shark patrols to keep swimmers informed and safe. a 15-year-old boy describes what happened to then when he felt a bite. >> my first reaction to when the shark grabbed my foot was to immediately get out of the water and get help. >> i didn't believe it at first. and then my reaction was pure panic. i needed to get to him right away. >>en a update now on a case that became a flash point in debates about u.s. abortion rights. a man was sentenced to prison for life in the state of ohio. >> life in prison with the possibility of seeing the parole board after 25 years. >> fuentes pleaded guilty to felony rape avoiding a trial. his victim had to travel to indiana to get an abortion after her state, ohio, banned the
1:38 am
procedure after roughly six weeks and that was the result of the u.s. supreme court overturning roe v. wade. and that ruling enraged millions across the country and now in ohio, boxes filled with hundreds of thousands of signatures are headed to capital columbus. abortion rights supporters are trying to get access enshrined in the state's constitution through a ballot member. >> and jeff zeleny says republican lawmakers are putting up new road blocks. >> reporter: box by box, a summer showdown over abortion in ohio intensified as supporters of abortion rights delivered hundreds of thousands of signatures demanding the issue be placed on the november ballot. >> these boxes obviously contain signatures of real ohioans. >> it is overwhelming. just an absolutely stunning moment. i can't believe we're here. >> reporter: for months this doctor has been part of an effort to gather support to have voters decide whether to enshrine abortion rights in the
1:39 am
ohio constitution. after the u.s. supreme court overturned roe v. wade. and returned the debate back to the states. >> i was never very political before all of this started last year. so this has made me pay more attention and i think that it will do the same for others. >> reporter: a year after the landmark dobbs decision, fallout has rippled from courtrooms to the campaign trail energizing democrats and alarming republicans. >> i don't judge anyone for being pro-choice. >> reporter: in ohio, gop lawmakers are going to great lengths to stop the abortion rights movement. it started last summer in kansas where an abortion measure drew historic turnout for an august election with a resounding 59% voting to protect abortion rights. michigan voters followed suit last fall with 57% voting to change the state's constitution. those outcomes were sole alarming to opponents of abortion rights in ohio, they are taking the extra ordinary step of trying to change the
1:40 am
rules in place for more than a century on ballot issues. it is called issue 1 which seeks to raise the threshold to change ohio's constitution from a simple majority of 50% to a supermajority of 60%. >> they are trying to sneak in an election in august when people are on vacation, when they are getting ready for school, when you are not used to voting. and they are doing that on purpose. because they know that their agenda is not the agenda of ohioans. >> reporter: the 700,000 signatures submitted must still be verified by ohio's republican secretary of state frank la rose. at a recent county gop dinner, he made no apologies for using the august election to stop the abortion rights effort. >> this is 100% about keeping a radical pro abortion aemendment out of our election. the left wants to jam it in there. >> why should is this serious issue be decided in august? >> there is no time like the
1:41 am
present to protect ohio's constitution. >> reporter: amy of protect women of ohio dismissed it that it was undemocratic. >> ohioans should be reminded had this is allowing them to determine how their constitution is amended. we've seen the other side saying one person, one vote. this takes away the people's voice. not at all. >> reporter: so with ohio the latest frontier in this state by state battle over abortion rights, there clearly now is a two pronged campaign, one for that special august determining how much the november ballot measure must passed by, changed to a supermajority that is complicating efforts here in ohio to enshrine abortion rights in the state's constitution. jeff zeleny, cnn, columbus, ohio. americans who plan to travel abroad should pack some patience before they apply for new passports. the u.s. state department says the wait time for passport applications is not expected to return to pre-pandemic levels
