and dna technology, they identified two more of gacy's victims. providing some closure to those families. to this day, detectives continue working to identify the remaining six victims. i am, donnie wahlberg. thank you, for watching. hello, welcome from the united states and all around
12:01 am
the world. american nurse and her child kidnapped in haiti. the effort to free them. >> people across the u.s. are under heat alerts and relief may be in sight for some? officials warning is still important to take precautions. alive after 46,000 years. we will seek to a scientist who helped revive a worm that is millennia old. >> live, from cnn. this is, cnn newsroom. >> in haiti where the u.s. is working to free an american nurse and her charge child. that's according to the humanitarian organization where she has worked for the two were reportedly abducted on thursday. the nurse, alex, is shown here in video from the organization. she's married to the head of
12:02 am
the group, the u.s. state department is working with haitian authorities to try and free the woman and her child. so mike let's bring cnn's paula newton. she has covered the situation in haiti for us. paula, what more have you been to learn about the woman and her child abducted in haiti? >> we learn from the organization that posted on their website that the directors life as you just said, was there, as a community nursery she's originally from new hampshire. both she and her child were abducted right from the campus. what this usually means, a lot of those charities or schools operate within a compound. this was close to the capitol . they were directly abducted from there. cnn did receive a statement from the u.s. state department saying they were aware of these objections and stated that they have obviously front and center
12:03 am
to try to get them to safety and are working with local agencies. as you know so well, the situation in haiti continues to be quite brave. it was within the last week that we had the u.s. say to americans that it was time to leave urgently. the situation was becoming too volatile. for many months now, haitians, all over the country, especially there, have been putting up with the threat of abduction. of kidnapping, as well, lawlessness and violence. it definitely comes at a difficult time for haiti. the situations i want to point out, some people are released quickly. sometimes a ransom is paid. sometimes it is not. what is important now, this group and the authorities trying to help them determine who exactly kidnapped this nurse and her child? and, why? that will speed along negotiations. the situation seems to be
12:04 am
different. whether or not this can be resolved in the coming hours, is something that many authorities on the ground and in the united states are looking at closely. >> paula, the u.s. has been pushing for some time now for a multinational force to help haiti manage its ongoing and daily security crisis. are these questions still ongoing? what is the situation? >> they are paired with the rising use. first we had a little volatile, authorities, dignitaries, specifically the secretary of state, saying, progress is being made on a multinational force. that comes on the heels for several weeks now that the united nations has been sang, someone needs to leave that multinational force on the ground there. we have since had confirmation from kenya, saying that they are willing to lead that. i want you to listen to it in a blink and talk about the
12:05 am
situation. >> we are very focused on working together with partners to try to help the haitians restore security. that is really the necessary foundation for being able to make progress on a political, as well as making sure the humanitarian system can get to those in need. we have been very focused on trying to put in place what is necessary for a multinational force. >> what is interesting, kenya has confirmed from the foreign ministry, willing to employ as many as 1000 police officers to try to help combat the gang violence. this is so complicated. they themselves, the kenyan authorities point out that this must be authorized by the united nations. after that, there will be many intense training here and understanding what resources are needed?
12:06 am
what actually can be done in terms of the scope of the operation on the ground? >> paula, you were back in haiti earlier this month. share with us what you witnessed during your time there? obviously the surgery is the curious. put it in perspective. >> i think as well as the security situation, everyone is aware of on the ground, unfortunately for so many in haiti, this comes on top of the humanitarian situation. whether they are looking for food or water or education or healthcare, anything, on a given day, becomes more difficult. the fact that most of the violence is centered in port-au- prince. those gangs and violent territories are now block all arteries in terms of transportation from one end of the country to the other. this really seems to hamper so much of what's going on in haiti and really does
12:07 am
complicate and compromise people's livelihoods. the other thing that people have been talking about, a vigilante. it has inspired by certain people who have decided to take matters in to their own hands. they have tried to combat with mixed results or there is no way that cnn can verify what has been going on, on the ground. the vigilante uprisings make things all the more precarious for people on the ground there. as i said, for so many months of people wanting to know whether or not the force would actually go into haiti and what the agreement might be, we hopefully have some movement on the ground there that will be welcomed by many in haiti. perhaps, not all, but certainly good news that haiti is front and center. >> thank you. select the extreme heat wave continues to stifle large parts
12:08 am
of the united states. nearly 55 million people are currently under heat alerts from southern california to the deep south. dangerously high temperatures have claimed the lives of several people in illinois, texas, and, arizona. herds of southwest are expected to remain in a heat wave for several days. in the coming hours, phoenix, may actually end it's days long streak of temperatures topping 110 degrees fahrenheit. relief is on the way for people in the mid-atlantic with the heat wave expected to ease this weekend for much of the east coast. cnn, athena jones, has more now on how people in new york are trying to beat the heat and humidity. >> reporter: we are here in washington square park. part of university campus. we are dealing now with a real temperature of 91 degrees. it feels like temperature approaching 98 degrees. take a look around this park.
12:09 am
you would not know from the number of people out and about here that we are approaching the heat index of 100 degrees. this is one of the areas new yorkers come to cool off. we talked this week about the urban heat island effect. that is cities and parts of cities with a lot of concrete and asphalt. not a lot of water sources, trees, or grass. those areas can reach a temperature of 10 degrees hotter than the rest of the area. this is not one of those areas. a lot of what we have seen throughout the course of the day is getting in and out of the fountain, looking to cool off. doing a number of other things to beat the heat. take a listen to one of the some of the folks told us. >> you have to stay in the shade. keep your heart rate down. air conditioning. getting a cup of ice on the net . you have to play it safe. >> reporter: does this concern you? >> the next 20 years, we are
12:10 am
past the point of no return. is one of those things where it's the new normal. c'est la vie. >> reporter: given this dangerous he, state officials are learning people to take precautions to stay hydrated and to stay out of the sun. to stay as cool as possible. stay in air-conditioned rooms if you can pray when it comes to air conditioning, the power company is also concerned about the heat taxing the power infrastructure. they are urging residents not to use all of your air- conditioners if you have more than one. run one at a time and run at the highest comfortable temperature you can. to avoid the dreaded power outages. so mike there was widespread damage and power outages around washington, d.c., after severe storms passed on saturday. the national weather service issued alerts for high wind.
12:11 am
emergency officials responded to multiple calls for trees and power lines down. the city's rail line also reported destructions caused by downed trees and power outages. at last, the report there were still nearly 100,000 homes and businesses without power across maryland, virginia, and ac. the other side of the country, firefighters are dealing with a massive blaze in southern california that started on thursday. the fire has lit to evacuation order for some residents of riverside county. the fire has spread across more than 2000 acres or about 800 hectors. it's only about 5% contained and authorities say that at least one firefighter suffered minor injuries. it is not heat or fires, heavy rains, from typhoon that is lashing beijing. several other cities in northern china. more than 100,000 people have been affected. 500,000 evacuated.

12:17 am
drones, two of them still crashed into a shopping complex. the on the heels of another drone shark ononday that did not casualties. across the border, ukrainian missiles went after another repeated target. a key logistical round for russian movements. we are doing now from london. good morning. bridge to crimea has been struck by ukrainian missiles. is is a potential setback for russia? >> potentially. we are still seeing if we can obtain footage to see how extensive the damage is to the bridge? ukrainians militate is saying this morning they were able to strike a shunt harborage. you can look at the map and understand why that is critical. that is a bridge that connects russian occupied crimea to that land bridge. it is an area where russia can use the seaports essentially to send weapons, supplies, along battlefield that has all along
12:18 am
ukraine driving them up to that land. potentially here, it could slow those supplies to troops. that is absolutely ukraine school. it's the second time that it has struck a bridge. just last month it was around june 22nd, it also claimed ukrainian forces. they also claimed a strike on the bridge and it comes days after ukrainian officials say they hit a railroad that connects to russian occupied crimea. again, you can see the strategy here. an attempt to cut slow supply lines to russian troops along those frontlines and choke them off from their much-needed animal supplies. whatever it is that they need on those frontlines. the second thing i want to point out about this strike, the weapon that was used. according to ukrainian officials, storm shuttle missiles were used. these were uk provided. a couple months ago.
12:19 am
these are long-range missiles for the have a range of about 150 miles. 240 kilometers. that's nearly tripled ukraine's reach previously. it was only 50 miles with the u.s. -- they provide these missiles by nato specifically for the purpose of allowing ukraine to reach into russian occupied regions and carry out strategic tactical strikes like this to cut off supply routes. to try again to harm and we can russia away from the immediate battlefield. you are seeing several things here play. ukraine widening the strategy to try to reach russia outside of the bounds of the battlefield. using the natal supplied weapons in a technical way. it comes as ukraine says, it's facing fierce resistance from russian forces along that battlefield. it continues to stands up to the fight consolidating gain in the south.
12:20 am
area force for ukrainian forces say they continue to push back on russian troops. president zelenskyy was there to provide a morale boost , visiting troops, speaking to troops. it comes as ukraine tries to ramp up the cost of the conflict inside russia. as you mentioned this morning, 25 ukrainian drones were intercepted over moscow. according to russian officials, nothing landed. no damage, no destruction. again, it comes on a day that is very important for russia. there will be a parade scheduled in st. petersburg, you can imagine that officials are wishing ukraine that the events go on without any interference from ukrainian drones or the ukrainian military. >> reporting from london. thank you, as always. we go to israel where benjamin net new is scheduled to
12:21 am
hold his weekly meeting and about two hours from now. it comes after a tumultuous week including the passage of a controversial new law that has further angered many israelis. we have the latest from tel aviv. rebecca seems like the protesters have been jolted. the protest is supercharged by events that happened here this week. waving through that first bill of a plan overhaul. the supreme court said they will not deal with the case until september. one of the things they are looking for, how many people would actually take to the streets? if you look around, there are literally tens of thousands. we see the signature wave of israeli flags. one of the main signals here of the protest against the judicial overhaul. we spoke with some protesters and this is what they had to say -- >> we wanted to be in the court
12:22 am
another government. two the government is not taking care of us. the citizens. the only thing we can do is come here. it is our duty and is the only thing we can do. we come here every week for almost 7 months. maybe they thought we would be tired? well, we are here to show we are not tired. we are just beginning. >> reporter: a lot of things the folks here are truly angry about. to way through the first law that they did a show -- is a rain court decided not to hear the case until september. something else that makes people angry, the way the prime minister has conducted himself in this. many people tell us that they are angry at the way he conducted himself in the interview that he gave to wolf blitzer. he would not commit to the
12:23 am
supreme court verdict if they decide to shoot down that first law that was passed on monday. a lot of people here want to bring that anger to the streets. they say that they feel they need to keep the pressure on the government. they know the supreme court will deal with this law in september. they will wait to see what happens then? until then, they will keep coming out and they will keep voicing their anger. criminal charges only in dear donald trump 's supporters more than ever. the undisputed favorite among republican voters. the leaders for the campaign trail. the mexican border and u.s., failing to deter migrants from crossing. why giving up is not an option? and checking voicemail as my activities perermit.

welcome back to our viewers in the united states and canada and around the world. you are watching cnn newsroom. term of the imminent threat of more criminal indictments does not seem to bother donald trump very much. at least well nikes company. on saturday, the former president was defiant about the legal peril hanging over him. he complained it amounted to, quote, election interference. his front runner, questionable whether more indictments will make a difference to trump or his supporters? >> the radical lunatic
12:28 am
democrats, they impeach me, they indict me, they rigged our elections, and the republicans just don't fight the week they are supposed to fight. the others are dirty, sick players. the republicans are very high- class. they have to be a little bit more lower-class. >> trumps former vice president and current challenger, mike pence, was in iowa. >> reporter: former vice president, mike pence, continues his iowa strategy of going county to county, trying to convince voters one at a time to choose him in the iowa caucuses. he spent part of the day here in iowa talking to first responders. talking about public safety at the community level. he told reporters afterwards, his campaign is slow and steady. he still is a couple weeks away before making that debate states. >> you know, i think we may be
12:29 am
a couple weeks away? our focus is on the campaign, to be honest with you. the criteria of 40,000 donors being added to the requirement of being at a certain place in the polls, is somewhat new. we accept that criteria. confident we will get there. >> reporter: hence did not directly attack trump in this event. it comes on the heels of being heard being booed off the stage after he took on trumpet we spoke with caucus goers who say to us that they are dismissing these new charges in the indictment. >> people see through this as a political trial. it is political by nature. people see through the and they are reinforcing the fact that they see this as a political driven trial. >> i do not think trump is
12:30 am
undermining? i think the acts that he's been accused of will play out in court. i think they are doing a level fishing expedition. looking at all sorts of avenues of his life. they are digging for things that will stick and things they will come up with. i think the republicans are starting to catch up. they're looking at the biden family corruption. >> reporter: pentz continues his barnstorming on sunday. floating barriers being placed on the u.s. mexican border. the state of texas is putting them in the rio grande river to try to permit. the barriers can't put them at risk, migrants are not turning around. >> reporter: a mother and her young daughter attempt to cross the rio grande in daylight. buoys anger to the riverbed, as
12:31 am
well as wire, stopped them at the eagle pass border in texas. a migrant family from venezuela said that they have been gauging the risk of trying to cross the river with young children in tow. >> translator: we saw people get hurt with the wire. they are thinking twice before taking risks. his wife says the family fled for reasons that are much more compelling than floating barriers. crime, extortion, living under a dictatorship. others returning home is not an option. his migrant father traveling with his wife and young son say that the wire will make it more difficult to cross. the mission, remains unchanged. making it to the united states, barriers or not.
12:32 am
greg abbott announced last month a plan to deploy the barriers on the rio grande to deter migrant crossings. >> we are securing the border at the border. with these buoys will allow us to do, prevent people from getting to the border. >> mexico's top diplomat blasted the barriers, claiming that they violate two international treaties. more than 80 democrats of the u.s. congress signed a letter urging joe biden to challenge the insulation in court. the justice department filed a federal lawsuit on monday to try to force texas to remove the barriers on the rio grande and filed a motion seeking a preliminary injunction on wednesday in an attempt to put the case on a fast track. the response from governor abbott, texas will see you in or. the border city of the mexican side of rio grande told cnn that in recent weeks, anywhere from 600 to 700 migrants arrived there daily. only a third compared to last year. the number traveling with their

the extreme heat wave escorts to europe for the past two weeks is taking a toll on the summer tourism season. the most popular tourist destinations. travel to cities on the mediterranean coast. fall is down 10% compared to the same time lester. adopting measures to tackle the fallout from extreme climate events. 10 million euros to refund airline tickets and hotel reservations to tourists who don't have travel insurance. joining me know, travel journalist for the independent.
12:40 am
simon, a very good morning to you. welcome back. how is the extreme heat affecting the tourism industry in the southern tourist hotspot the summer? >> reporter: it is having an impact that rages from annoying to really quite alarming. just one week ago, we saw the terrible wildfires streaking across the greek island. very close to the coast of turkey. we have had many hotels evacuated. tens of thousands of tourists were actually put up in emergency shelters on the island. many of them sent to the airport as evacuations are going on pretty much all week after the island erode. that is settled and tourists are going back in in large numbers to northern europe. there has been a sense among
12:41 am
tourists that naturally a european vacation is not necessarily much fun if you are in the south this summer. rome, every high temperature above 40 celsius. that's around 110 fahrenheit. if you are trudging around in that sort of heat, it's extremely debilitating and not much fun. the official advice, stay in your hotel room with the curtains closed between 11:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. not many people's idea of a vacation. certainly, in some cases, it's extremely scary. others, generally upsetting that people are not having the vacation they hoped for. >> exactly. they look forward to it for such a long time. are travelers rethinking going to the traditional popular summer hustlers? have you observed people going to cooler vacation spot?
12:42 am
are the new places repaired to absorb the increase of visitors? do they want crowds? >> reporter: that's a really good question. there are so many different factors at work here. it's not possible to point out definite trends at the state. northern europeans, the people most in the front line of this heat wave, for many decades they have been flying in the summer from their homes to the mediterranean to get sunshine and warmth. if you are sitting around in sweden, glascow or scotland, the depths of winter, you will be wanting to book ahead. the cumulative impact of these stories and the fact that we have seen the families fleeing for their lives with whatever
12:43 am
possessions they could grab, will make people think that maybe it is time to look at cooler temperatures? the obvious places are actually destinations which northern europeans went to before the jet age started. the coast of northern france, belgium, netherlands, baltic and coast of germany. in particular, this is where we could see quite a lot of growth, the coast of poland. lovely resorts there. it is much cooler than the mediterranean. still warming up for most people in the height of summer. the prices are also much more appealing. particularly if you are like me from the united kingdom where the pound is not doing particularly well. >> there are lots of options out there. undiscovered little jewels that visitors will take a liking to. very briefly, if there is a shift toward destinations in the places you just mentioned,
12:44 am
might vacationers up to go to the mediterranean during the winter? or start their summer holidays earlier in the calendar year? >> absolutely. the mediterranean always used to be a winter destination for people from northern europe. in particular, people now will be looking at may and september, october, as the ideal months to be in the mediterranean. of voting, late june, july, and august. >> a final thought from you, despite the suffocating heat, vacationers are still going to the mediterranean. >> they are. yes. i am in southern france, it's been a cool start to the day today. but, yes, the beaches are absolutely full. most people when it's not too hot, it has not been too bad in this part of france. they're having the time of
12:45 am

tiny round worms i have been chilling below the siberian permafrost for some 46,000 years are up and moving again. russian and german scientists say these frisky fellows were in a deep dormant state from about 130 feet below the ice. after 46 millennia, just a few drops of water, got them back to life. it is called, crypto meiosis. some plants, viruses, and animals, are known to survive in this state between life and death for incredible periods of time. the worms are a living example. this is a professor at the molecular cell biology genetics or he was closely involved in the research. he joins us now. professor, so
12:50 am
good to have you with us. so intriguing. so many questions -- why revive a worm that has been frozen for 46,000 years? >> why? i think the question for all sides, why do we do it? i think we do it because a great thing that russian scientists under the leadership . they started to collect the samples from permafrost just to see which bacteria is there and what life is there? i think it's a great discovery by them to try to get the worms revived after such a period. this is a great answer to our questions. what are the principles? you said, life, death,
12:51 am
something in between. this will help us understand what life is? >> what have you been able to learn so far about this particular organism? what are some of the practical reasons to study these types of worms? >> we learned a lot about this. also, this paper is a combination of my previous work. i spent another 15 years to understand this. using a beloved model from biologists. another enigma. we have so many publications about how they survive from freezing and what they need? to answer the second part of your question, in the meantime, i do not see any practical -- i
12:52 am
don't know? there is no practical reasons to do this. i may say that not any important discovery is practical . for instance, when people discovered dna, was it practical? no. only in 25 years, you get the practical reason. a practical understanding. >> professor, a fellow researcher in your study, dr. philip shaver, does weller department of the university of cologne. the practical applications of the findings might be in terms of better understanding global
12:53 am
warming and adaptation. is that something that you are exploring further? >> yes. it could be. i'm not exploring this. i'm more interested in the mechanisms of how this state is achieved? i agree with you that it is very important to have the understanding of global warming. for me, as a molecular biologist, it's more important to understand how organisms are in the state between life and death? >> it is fascinating. also the idea that just a few drops of water brought this worm back to life. were you surprised by that? >> yes. 10 years ago, it is really fascinating. put water in a comes back.
12:54 am
-- was the discover and constructor of the first microscope. he discovered this. he took dust from his gutter. in amsterdam. he put water on it. the same. this living organism, he was -- >> professor, it is fascinating , the thought of something as simple as water bringing things back to life. so much symbolism in that. isn't there? final question for you, could we see other organisms be brought back? are there risks to doing that?
12:55 am
>> they actually have two questions. first one, i actually don't know? the second one, the engineering of crypto biology, i think the answer to your first question about it being practical? it will be possible. maybe not now or 20 years, but it will be possible to understand this process. the genes are important for crypto biology from humans, cell cultures, organs, maybe one day we can also produce --
12:56 am
