the former u.s. marine who was recently released by russia in a prisoner swap has been wounded on the battlefield fighting russia in ukraine. we're live from the pentagon just ahead. and we are watching for any developments outside of a federal courthouse in washington, d.c., as a potential third indictment looms over former president donald trump. a grand sure is expected to meet today to hear more evidence from the special counsel jack smith. and lebron james' son bronny is recovering in a hospital after suffering cardiac arrest during basketball practice. what the family is saying about how he's doing. we're following the major developing stories and many more, all coming in right here to "cnn news central." ♪

an american wounded on the ba battlefield in ukraine, just a year after he's released from russia in a high-profile prisoner swap. a biden administration official telling cnn that the marine veteran trevor reed was wounded while fighting in ukraine. they are family sizing that reed was not fighting on behalf of the u.s. government. the u.s. consistently concerned about escalation with russia. cnn's oren liebermann is at the pentagon now. oren, where is lee now? do we note severity of his wounds? >> reporter: jim, right now, trevor reed is in germany, he's come out of ukraine according to the state department with the help of an ngo who got him out of ukraine with his injuries. we don't know at this point how he suffered the injuries and the extent. we know he was treated first in the ukrainian capital of kyiv and now en route to germany. where exactly, that, too, remains a question that we're

waiting for an answer. trevor reed, as you pointed out was released from a russian prison in april 2022. even held for three years on russia charges on endangering a law enforcement officer there when he was released it was in a prisoner swap for a russian serving a 20-year sentence for cocaine smuggling. it took place in turkey. most of the time trevor reed was on our air talking about another american journalist evan gershkovich. and he was tweeting up to a couple months ago. and made the decision to go and fight as a privateizen. he wasn't fighting on any dod administration. an official says cnn, i want to make it m reed was not engaged in any activities on behalf of the u.s. government. the u.s. government has been

extraordinary in fighting in ukraine. the severity of those injures and when did he make that decision to fight there? we'll keep you updated on what we learn. >> yeah, that administration stated part of a general policy, attempting not to escalate with russia, making it clear these are volunteers but there have been many volunteers that have gone there. a federal grand jury that could vote on the indictment of former president donald trump is expected to be meeting today. we're closely watching activity around the federal courthouse in washington. it comes as special counsel jack smith continues to make moves in what appears to be the late stages into efforts to overturn the 2020 election. he just received a trove of documents from bernie kerik. kerik along inside trump attorney rudy giuliani led the probe in claims of false voter

fraud. cnn's katelyn polantz is outside the courthouse where the jury is expected to meet. what developments have there been from the special counsel's office? >> reporter: well, boris, after months and months of this grand jury coming in tuesdays and thursdays, working diligently hearing from witnesses and having other information brought to them coming in, in documents, they do not appear to have convened today. however, that doesn't mean the special counsel's office is not busy at work. and the primary thing that we know that they have now that they didn't have before, that no investigator had before, were all of these documents that bernie kerik, a close associate of rudy giuliani had, as he was working with giuliani and others after the election. working for the trump campaign. essentially there were -- it's a collection of lawyers led by giuliani, who were trying to gather information about voter fraud. they didn't find evidence of

widespread fraud. but they have lots of communications between one another, and those documents that bernie kerik had, into the hundreds, they had never been handed over to congress. the trump campaign did not allow them to be handed over in lawsuits, defamation against giuliani and others and now the special counsel is getting access to those records. it is because there was a lawsuit where kerik was on the road to turning over those documents but now the special counsel's office has a significant number of papers to be sorting through. what that means, though, boris, for the case against donald trump, clearly, the justice department was out of place where they felt they could alert donald trump that he was a target and may be charged with a crime. that sort of thing happens in the very end stage of a case. but whether these documents would factor into what's happening now with no grand jury convening today, meaning they can't return an indictment, if the quorum of the grand jury doesn't come in.

we really don't know exactly what's next here. but that grand jury is something to continue to watch because whether they gather, they can hear from more witnesses. they can see more evidence. and of course, they could be asked any day now by the justice department to approve an unprecedented indictment against the former president of the united states, related to his 2020 election recalls. >> katelyn polantz, thanks so much foreagle eyes on the courthouse. jim. now to shocking news that lebron james' son bronny suffered cardiac arrest during practice in southern california. the 18-year-old is in the hospital right now. his family says he is in stable condition, crucially, no longer in an icu. according to tmz, he was unconscious when taken by ambulance to the hospital. joining us jonathan reiner, cnn

medical professor and surgical university of washington. first of all, cardiac arrest, the heart stopped. he's a young man, he's participating in a sport here. how common is this sort of thing? and when you look at this, how severy? >> well, there's a lot of information, jim that we still have yet to learn. so, first of all, if bronny indeed had a full-on cardiac arrest, typically that involves a heart arrhythmia that would then be treated with an electrical shock to basically restart the heart. we don't have that kind of data yet. but if they are saying he had a cardiac arrest, that's what that would mean. there are about 2,000 cardiac arrests in people under the age of 25 every year. you know, the united states as a whole, there are about 365,000. but it's fairly -- very rare in young people.

and the most common cause in a young person would be something like hype rtrophic cardiopathy, there are ways to screen for that, i'm guessing over the next several days a little more information that will help us understand why bronny had the event. i'm thrilled that we hear he's out of the icu and in a step-down kind of situation. because that has a very favorable prognosis. >> we have seen this happen with athletes before. often in the public eye, damar hamlin, of course, his case would be different, because he was struck in the chest which is presumed to be the cause of that. but we saw an international soccer player, this happened on live television. he actually went back to playing. and i wonder, again, there's a lot you don't know, but is it possible for someone to come back from this, or likely? >> well, it was different for

damar hamlin, because that was a very rare but well described event related to the blow to the chest which caused arrhythmia. the question from bronny james is does he have a congenital abnormality that will predispose him to another event going forward. about 30 years ago, the boston celtics, reggie lewis sadly died in practice from hypertrophicmyopathy, and it tells you how athletes are screened for that disorder. many etiologies, causes for young athletes, are life long disorders which would rule out high-level competitive sports in many athletes. >> goodness, we can only wish him the best. doctor, thank you so much. i want to bring in cnn cari champion, he's host of the cari

champion show on amazon prime. bronny james, listen, he grew up in the spotlight, son of one of the greatest basketball players ever. and now he's developed into a fantastically talented player himself. and to have him happen at this age, just shocks but supportive comments coming in from across the sports world. >> yeah, definitely shocking when we first heard the news today, we thought to ourselves, oh, my goodness, the first thought was, is he okay. in giving context to the viewers, the way in which we see lebron james, he's very much a huge advocate for his family. they call them the james gang. for me, this was personal. we watched him grow up. we all heard lebron james say he extended his career because he hopes to play with his son. i can go back to more realistic

incidents, shaquille o'neal's son had similar happen to him. he stepped out of the limelight, and no longer played college ball and he's in the amateur league of the nba. and the damar hamlin incident. i can go back to the hank gathers story, he played in college. the thing we should advocate and i talked to a few medical professionals today is this is why the importance of cpr education is so important. because this can happen often. and we have no idea what to do, we think of these young athletes, especially at that age as strong and independent, and seemingly invincible as they do themselves. we all need to be prepared. by we all, i mean, in this world of sports, in this community that we continue to be prepared for incidents such as these. we've had two major ones in the last year. >> there's a lot of talk about

defibrillators after the damar hamlin case, particularly at the youth level. you mentioned lebron james. his dream was to play in the nba alongside his son. i want to listen to him talking about that and just get your reaction. >> i would love to do the whole ken griffey sr./jr. thing. that would be ideal for sure. being there with him, spending a full year with him in uniform, that would be icing on the cake. >> i thought of myself, i can only imagine the joy of that. tell us about the relationship between lebron and his son. >> lebron james and his son, both of his sons, for that matter, have a very close relationship. most recently at the espys. i thought it was a very important note to see lebron's family, his two sons, his daughter and his wife present him with the award.

it was very, very clear that he was emotional because this family that he started very young has went through so much with lebron. and his children since they are close in age, 20 years apart really have become his brothers, if you will. de facto, he talks about this in a way that's so endearing, that we see this g.o.a.t. coaching basketball in his off-season. we've never seen that with michael jordan or anyone of that stature. this family is extremely close and they pride themselves on that. i will say this, in terms of putting everything in context, i bet at the moment, lebron knowing how close he is with his family, sports has taken a back seat, it's about life. sometimes, we need this jolt to say what really matters. and it's also important that when something happens to a player such as a bronny james

with attention on him, we start looking at how we can be prepared in our world to take care of those who experienced this. as you mentioned defibrillators, cpr. all of the things that matter. we should be focusing on that right now. wishing bronny james as well as his family, speedy recovery, healing and health, but this is what brings us back to reality on what matters the most, jim. >> no question, cari champion, so good to have you on, as cari said, we wish him, his family, the very best. boris. the u.s. economy may have dodged a bullet. the teamster and u.p.s. reaching a labor did deal that could have crippled a supply chain. the deal and now the white house is reacting. later, doctors are questioning whether there are new side effects from popular weight loss drugs ozempic and wegovy. we'll tell you what they're concerned about. you're watching "cnnnn news

♪ u.p.s. and the teamsters have reached a tentative deal on a new contract. that could head off what would have been a crippling strike. the fears such a strike could

have started as soon as next week and paralyzed u.s. supply chains. at least one group estimated a ten-strike would cost the u.s. economy $7 billion making it's it the costly work stoppage in history. cnn's vanessa yurkevich joins us now. vanessa, what do we know to put the two parties over the edge on this? >> reporter: the union calling this deal historic, u.p.s. saying this is a win-win, but this all came down to money, came down to wages. $30 billion in new investment f u.p.s. in this new five-year contract. right off the bat this year, full-time and part-time workers are getting a $2.75 wage and over five years that's $7.50 in terms of raises. also, we're talking about part timers here. because this was a key sticking point in these negotiations that

really stalled the negotiations in the last minute. part-timers currently make $6.20 an hour. in the new contract, minimum starting pay of $21. and also, u.p.s. reconfirming their commitment to air conditioning and all new vehicles for full-time drivers. and also u.p.s. saying they're going to hire 7500 new employees. we are here at a local u.p.s. union hall, a teamsters union hall in philadelphia, speaking to one driver. a full-time driver, he's been with the company for 17 years since he was 18 years old. listen to what he said right after the deal was struck. >> shocked. shocked, but excited. you know, just for the simple fact that you know, talk about strike, tensions are high. emotions are high. this is good. this is a start. i mean -- i mean, the language is there. but if everything they said is true, we're happy about it. >> reporter: now, of course,

this is good news today. but this deal still has to get a vote by 340,000 members. the voting is going to start on august 3rd. and run through august 22nd. a lot of people that we have spoken to today at this union hall really like this deal. but we've also spoken to some part-timers who feel like $21 is not enough still. they wanted to see $25 an hour at a minimum. you may get some no votes from part-timers and part-timers makes up more than the majority of u.p.s. workers. so, of course, a strike avoided on august 1st. but we'll have to wait in the end of the month to see whether a strike is averted in the long term, guys. >> i imagine part-timers don't get access to all of the benefits. so key question there, we'll be watching, vanessa yurkevich in philly, thanks so much, boris. while u.p.s. and teamsters may have reached a tentative

deal, the big three carmakers still negotiating with the auto union to avoid their potential strike. and the ongoing writers and actors strikes something that the white house supports. all of that can be a lot for the self-proclaimed pro-labor president. let's talk with somebody at the white house, deputy secretary julie su joins us now. thank you nor joining us. you said the biden administration would not be getting involved in any negotiations between u.p.s. and the teamsters union. did that remain the case? or did you or anyone else get involved in the negotiations? >> all congratulations go to the parties. the teamsters and u.p.s. sat down at the table together, they grappled through an agreement and reached a tentative agreement. this is when the president says, workers respond, unions at the table, and employers agree to

share their fair share, it's good, it's good for working people, good for the american economy. >> it absolutely is, because it avoids the potential for supply chain issues and ugliness that we didn't want to see. i didn't hear you specifically say the white house was not involved in discussions. did anyone in the administration get involved? >> no the parties made this agreement on their own. i think that's an important thing. when we say we respect the bargaining process, we know there's a moment to be helpful. but sometimes, the moment is to stand back, let the parties do their work. respect their space. and allow them to hash out the issues that will allow them to find a path forward. >> and fortunately, in this case, good things appear to have happened. have you spoken with the president since the announcement of this tentative deal? what was his reaction? >> i've not spoken to him directly. but i know that this fits squarely within his vision for what he wants the economy to look like. he says empowering workers is

critical to how we create a strong economy. he says that he wants to be the most pro-worker, pro-union president in history. i think the outcome is an example of that. we have to know that workers should exercise every right they have in the collective bargaining process. that was part of the process not to get involved and so we didn't. again, we celebrate with the appears resolving and getting through some really difficult things. >> now, julie, on the question of the auto unions. last week, the president met with the awe the toe union president. there was a potential strike against the big three automakers. what message to you have for the parties involved there? how closely is the white house watching that situation? >> i think it's important for to us shift a little bit how we talk about these things. the sish issue is not -- the fon a potential strike is not the right way. the sish when workers are bargaining for things like fair wages and air conditioned

vehicles like holidays, those all amount to what it means to have a good job. and this president is focusing on good jobs in the economy. what we're say saying a process is going on where in which workers make better jobs to get to them. and that is fundamental how bidenomics is going to improve situations for the workers and economy overall. >> julie, do you have any update on those negotiations, quickly? >> so, those negotiations have only just begun. we're monitoring, we're expecting and hopeful that the parties do what they need to do to reach a win-win solution there as well. >> and, julie, while we have you, your nomination to become secretary of labor has been stalled in the senate for months now. you've not received senate confirmation, is it your intention, is it the intention of the president to have you continue serving without senate confirmation? >> i'm honored to be in this

position. i'm honored the president has nominated me for it. i do continue as acting secretary, i'm hoping as we see results the senate will take a volt and i'll be confirmed but i have appreciated the support of a whole lot of senators. >> julie su, thank you for the time and perspective. always great to see you. >> thank you so much, thank you. >> of course. >> jim. it's standing room only for republican presidential candidates and some in the party want that crowd to shrink sooner rather than later. we'll explain who and why just ahead. plus, china's foreign minister minister missing for a month has now officially been replaced. we're going to have the details, next. ♪ (music plays) ♪ and d you realize you're in love... steve? ...with a laundry detergent. new gain flings. seriously good scent.

the republican party has been here before. a crowded primary field with donald trump waiting in the wings as the other candidates spar and split up the nontrump vote. but unlike in 2016, this time, trump is the front-runner. so republican senator mitt romney says in a new op-ed that his party should whittle down the field no later than february so trump can't conquer and divide all over again. the most vocal trump critic in the race agrees. >> i don't disagree with mitt, especially the date he put on it. i think there will be a lot of narrowing even before iowa. i think there will be narrowing created by the debates. i wouldn't feel comfortable asking donors for more money or

voters for their vote if i didn't see a realistic path to victory. so, i don't disagree with it. >> if republicans choose to follow that plan, they better hurry, a new poll has the former president way ahead of the pack. let's break it down with cnn's jessica dean and david chalian. david, what does the new polling tell us? >> it tells us what we've seen, remarkably different. this is monmouth university, you still see, take a look at the numbers an overwhelming donald trump advantage, 46%mo republican voters. 20% is where ron desantis, the next competitor is. a 26 percentage point lead is not a small one. we've got six months or so before the iowa caucus kicks this off. we see it in the states also. we saw a fox business poll over the weekend, iowa, south carolina, staame story. a race dominated by trump

petraeus. he is in a tier of his own. >> let's talk about second place, jessica. right now, ron desantis reworking his campaign. he's cut more than a third of his staff. how does this reworking ultimately translate into more voters? >> that's the big question, can they convert this reset into actually rising in the polls and more fundfundraising. they're saying look, we'll get him on the road, we're leaner and meaner, we'll see him on the bus tour later this week and more in iowa. this started out as a national campaign, they were going to be everywhere. it wasn't just the early states and then it shrunk. sand now we're seeing them with their eye so focused on iowa. they've got to do well, of course, as those will be the first votes in all of this. 38 members of their staff, those stories, the reset stories keep coming. usually, the campaigns want to drop that and move on.

it's not uncommon to see a summer reset like this. it happened in past presidential campaigns. the question is, can they adapt. and can they, as you said, convert new voters. >> and draw new donors, too. >> totally. >> because he's been getting big dollar donors and they're capped at a certain point, so he has to find new money. david to the question of mitt romney suggestion of witting down the herd for those running for president. we heard that at the end of the 2016 primary, ted cruz, marco rubio and others. is it likely that republicans are going to listen to that argument? >> it's interesting, mitt romney is not making the argument to the candidate themselves. he's making them to the financial backers, right? >> right. >> he's saying you should turn off the spigot here and no longer fund candidates who aren't viable to trump after the first contests, iowa, new hampshire, south carolina. whether or not candidates will

listen is an entirely different equation but romney, of course, has campaign experience, as we know. saying to the big financial backers of the super pacs and candidate themselves, stop funding candidates who don't have a chance. >> and jessica, did romney come out and say who he thinks they should gather and support instead of donald trump? >> no i think that's the point. it's more to the donors as david is saying, stop funding them, in order to really mount a challenge to donald trump and beat him, they're going to have to coalesce, and people have to drop out if they're not viable. i also think it's interesting, mitt romney is saying publicly what so many any privately especially on the senate side. you talk to republicans, they'll stay this privately. it's not often that they'll write an op-ed in the per about it.he said, our party and country need a nominee with character created with something

greater than revenge and ego, and preferably from the next generation. he's certainly trying to help guide this process. and also, he said, don't rely on the party to do this. like, you have in the past. the party does not hold sway with these candidates and does not hold sway with these voters. >> the last part being the most important. i mean, you've seen the republican party that's been crafted in the image avenue donald trump created, which is anti-establishment, almost anti-party version of itself. romney is saying there will be noll heavy hand from some central committee somewhere. this has got to be somebody who is not seen as part of the establishment dictating the state of play. >> david chalian, jessica dean, thanks. jim. overseas now to a story from china attracting an enormous amount of attention, the foreign minister qin gang ousted by his position replaced by his predecessor. the shake-up at the top of beijing's policy of leadership

comes about a month after qin gang was last seen in public. he disappeared. cnn's mark stewart visits us from tokyo. there's been speculation why he was ousted. has there been any official explanation, now that he's been replaced? >> reporter: jim, i know you've spent time in china, so you certainly understand the mystery and intrigue behind all of this. but at this particular moment, there is no dominant story line, no dominant explanation, about this surprise power shake-up. as you mentioned qin gang was last seen just about one month ago. he was in beijing, meeting with officials in vietnam, from sri lanka, from russia. and then suddenly began to disappear from the public spotlight. in fact, he missed some very crucial meetings on the global stage including a meeting with an eu official. he was not seen when u.s. treasury secretary janet yellen

came to china, as well as john kerry. and that has now prompted all of this conversation as to what happened. it was on tuesday afternoon in fact, jim that a government official, a spokesperson was actually asked where is he? what's happening here? and the official line was no information to provide. and then hours later, we saw the announcement of this departure of this demotion. as to what prompted it, again, no dominant moment or story line seems to surface. but that, again, is part of the intrigue here, as we observe what's happening right now in china, jim. >> speaking of intrigue, you're seeing him now expunged from all official websites as well there. some air brushing officially. marc stewart following china from tokyo, thanks so much. boris. ocean temperatures in the florida keys reaching triple digits. the catastrophic impact on coral reefs when we come back.

now, to a troubling new development on the extreme heat gripping much of our planet. water temperatures off the coast of florida just topped 100 degrees for the first time ever. those record temperatures threatening to wipe out all of the coral in the florida keys. one reef restoration group reported 100% mortality as a reef off the coast of marathon in the florida keys adding that another site in the keys had, quote, lost almost all corals. and now the coral is rapidly bleaching and dying off.

we're joined by a program manager for the coral restoration foundation. thank you so much for joining us, first of all. this is a tragic development. >> thank you very much for the invitation. and you're right. this is severe bleaching that we've seen now due to these elevated sea temperatures is just wiping out the coral that we have, you know, put back into the reef for the last, you know, ten years. >> so what exactly, for those of our guests who don't have a background in this kind of science, what exactly do the warmer waters do to the coral? >> the corals can sustain different temperatures, right. and they have a bleaching threshold. bleaching is just when they lose their source, the microorganisms within them and when the

temperatures reach the temperature threshold, they release those and they cannot feed, you know, and going back to normal, they will starve to death. and what we've seen so far is that temperatures went up so high, so quickly, that the korl didn't even have time to bleach. and they just pretty much burned to death. >> wow. so the important thing to remember here, as the coral is dying off is that they are an important link in a chain of an ecosystem. so when the coral goes, then all of the fish surrounding it go. and then that has far-reaching implications for us on land, too? >> you are right. i mean, coral is -- coral has the key element of the ecosystem, right. and together, they provide so many ecosystem services to us, you know, tourism.

and then it's job security for many. people here in the diving industry, the fishing industry. the hotels as well depend, you know, on the beaches as well. not only that, that's all human. but we're talking about one out of every four animals in the ocean depend on coral reefs. so if coral dies so will the other animals and all of the services they provide to us. >> coral reefs also play an important role in keeping the relatively calm near shore during a hurricane. this has enormous implications going into hurricane season as well. i'm wondering what are you able to do to try to preserve the ecosystems? and what can we do to help? >> well, the coral restoration foundation has been working for ten years now trying to restore
