3:08 pm
that reporting. let's turn now back to our breaking news this lucky every style, every home hour, the trump campaign saying it's been hacked by what it is calling foreign sources, who are trying to interfere in the the best things in life come 2024 election. i'm joined now into two scoops of ice cream, by cnn contributor lulu garcia two thumbs up, and now by any navarro and cnn political phone, when you switch to consumer cellular and get two commentator se cupp. it's great months of service free, that's to see both of you here on the right, two months free all the saturday afternoon se let's fast, reliable nationwide start first with you. there are coverage make the switch today shades of 2016 to this as our my name is braden i wish as our reporter, jeremy herb was just kind of laying out and 5-years-old when i came to we have known that foreign change him home trying to shore actors want to interfere in the and down the story and then u.s. election yeah. having these headaches that when i go away my mom, she was >> i mean, this is a huge problem. >> it's not a problem that we're unprepared for, but just crying what they said, it's good to be a constant their son had brain cancer it reminder that hacking was your worst fear come into disinformation, this is a, this is a big part, especially by foreign entities. this is a big life watching your child grew part of why as voters, we need up is the dream of every parent to be really educated diligent, vigilant, all the things. you can join the battle to save the lives of kids like braden because so much information is by supporting st. jude children's research hospital flying at us from so many
3:09 pm
different places, especially on families never receive a bill from st. jude for treatment, social media. it's hard to know travel, housing, or food so what's real. it's hard to know what's faked and now fake and they can focus on helping their now what these leaks were child who live what they have potentially getting access to done for me, my son, my family things that were not supposed to see any campaign would be sorry life is a gift, very upset to learn that they're sort of, their secret weapon. you know, the plans especially for a child battling that they have are being shared cancer call or go online and potentially with the press and helps say if the lives of then potentially with, with voters, right? children like braden now, i >> and it still remains to be seen. it's very early in all know 11-years-old, we were of this. what was in this hack what are in these documents? actually doing the checkup for my brain and they they saw lulu, former president trump famously asked russia in 2016, something in my throat which russia if you're listening viroid cancer it was fine, hillary clinton's emails. now, the trump campaign has been, has been hacked if heartbreaking to find out that he has cancer again, but we he you're the trump campaign, how knew who we have behind us. it serious? seven issue is this? gives me hope you can make a how concerning is this i mean, difference. it's hugely concerning and not >> joined with your credit or only for the trump campaign, debit card for only $19 a month? and we'll send you this but for any american. >> i mean this, if indeed it is st. jude tee-shirt without st. a foreign government trying to jude or its donors. we would
3:10 pm
interfere in our election we should all be concerned about that. i think politico at this have been in a bad place these point has been very judicious and reporting about getting kids, they've done nothing wrong in the world finding a these documents but so far not distributing them. and telling cure for childhood cancer. it means everything helps st. jude law enforcement about this so they can investigate it. i give kids with cancer a chance mean, you know, the trump campaign is trying to spin this saying that this is potentially iran trying to attack the president, former president's have you ever wondered why campaign because of his own traditional can contain up to 80% water? actions. we don't know really >> we are threes have created a who is behind and this yet, we new dissolvable lobby detergent do know that america has many because why pay extra for water enemies. we do know that there joined the millions of are many countries in the world americans who have made the that want to interfere in switch. and it's the plastic america's elections. china now available at earth russia, north korea. i mean, breeze.com and select walmart's near you i've the list is very, very lengthy waited the mirror. >> i felt alone for a long and we all, as se was saying, time. >> i remember going home, praying for it to go away and need to be very vigilant. not thinking it was something wrong with me. >> yeah. and we will certainly >> i go into a lot of things be following the story as we thinking it's not going to get more information. it is work. and i thought muesli what truly a breaking story at this would be the same thing, but it point with new information actually worked more than coming as the, as the minutes 700,000 patients have regained and hours go by, i want to talk their confidence with us lee's prescription treatments and a little bit about this campaign and the strategies on your hopeless and then you find find other women who work both sides. in particular, we
3:11 pm
saw the former president anything about is you, you suddenly feel okay. we're going holding that news conference to get out of it together. this week and then this rally that's when usually did for me last night, he's really been going after harris, questioning her blackness, questioning her when i started laura gueler beauty over 25 years ago, i intelligence. i want to play a realized there weren't enough makeup options for women with clip and then ask you a question on the other side? matures so i put together an >> camila is grossly amazing kid of everyday products were women over 40, i incompetent. and in my opinion, call it the daily routine the has a very low iq, but we'll find out about her iq during the debate. okay. let's find democratic national convention out about so se both of these starts monday, august 19 on cnn and streaming on max campaigns want to grow their coalition. that is how you win a racially more voters vote for you than the other person. so i'm curious why the former president thinks that that attacking kamala harris in this very personal way is going to bring in new voters. do you think that's good strategy know, listen, i, i host another show on another network called battleground. >> and the point of it is to talk to swing state voters. i talked to them every day and they don't care to litigate.
3:12 pm
kamala harris's race they don't care about childless cat ladies they have problems and they want solutions. and if you're trump and j.d. vance going into these swing states, the states that will determine this election. talking about kamala harris's icu or punishing people who don't have children. these are not solving problems that they have. and in fact, a lot of swing state voters, especially women, are turned off by these very personal attacks. so there's a reason why voters in swing states, many of them are uncommitted undecided. they are waiting for solutions to problems that they have. trump is not offering that yet. harris and j.d. vance for their part, have not yet laid out their agenda either, so everyone's kind of waiting for the substance of this election to kick in. trump seems very sort of scattered with harris now, on the democratic ticket and harris-vance are obviously
3:13 pm
just getting in and just getting started, but they also need to tell voters were not just a campaign of vibes, right? we're going to, we're going to solve some problems. here's how lulu harris in arizona in nevada yesterday and then today. >> they are obviously hoping to put these states maybe we're gonna be out of reach for democrats back into play there in the sunbelt where the voting blocs can be more diverse. of course, latino voters in both of those states play a very key role. latino voters are not monoliths. of course they care about independent things and different things. but how impactful do you think yesterday's endorsement from the league of united latin american citizens might be to this race in those particular states i think it was important. >> i think the culinary union, which actually always leans democratic is important. but what happens there is that they end up going door to door. they have very robust get out the vote campaign's latinos respond to that liked to see people face-to-face. it is a
3:14 pm
difficult demographic to reach often, but a very important one of vital to this election, especially in those states. and so it is, it is increasingly important and you're seeing vice president harris honed her immigration message. we saw it yesterday in arizona where she talked about being tough on the border, but she also talked about a pathway to citizenship. and this is the line that she is going to try and navigate while appealing to people who want to see the southern border locked down, who are concerned about illegal immigration, but also to the base. and to latino voters who want to hear about what you will do to help the people in this country actually become legalized. >> and what i keep hearing for both of you and from so many people like yourselves who are experts and analysts that do talk to voters. they want to hear se about solutions. they want to hear it. they have problems, they want to hear what somebody might do about them i know you're telling us you talked to them a lot. i'm
3:15 pm
just curious. what are they saying to you? what, what are some of the issues? i mean, we see the polling, it's the economy and is usually at the top. but what are you hearing from people who are going to make a difference in the fall when they vote yeah, i mean, every state is different. in fact, inside every state right. like flint, michigan voters care about different things than bloomfield hills voters in michigan care about. so it's important to be on the ground and ask those questions but there are overarching themes voters care about the economy. they care about the cost of goods that goes from cars down to groceries. they care about housing prices. we're hearing that as a consistent theme, especially in growth economies like nevada, arizona, north carolina, these are big, big issues for voters. the cost of housing being sort of locked out of buying a new home or a first home is a common theme. we hear a lot about immigration and strengthening the border, strengthening lowering crime,
3:16 pm
making cities and towns safer we also hear a lot about, about abortion. we do, we hear a lot about women's rights it's especially since there are now many states in which that is actually on the ballot it is going to be so interesting to see how this unfolds and just this, this convinced timeframe. >> lulu garcia navarro and se cupp, thanks to both of you sure let's go now to my colleague, wolf blitzer, who is live in tel aviv tonight, wolf there's a lot going on here in the middle east right now, israel says it was targeting a top islamic jihad commander in that devastating airstrike. >> they've killed more than 90 palestinians sheltering at a school in gaza. that incident has galvanized people trying to put together a ceasefire and hostage truce between hamas and israel. but will it be enough to stop the bloodshed? stay with us lots going on. you're in the cnn who's room the democratic national convention

3:22 pm
displaced palestinians were sheltering speaking only moments ago, the idf said a top islamic jihad commander was likely at the school, but it's not yet clear if he was hit. the idf says, hamas terrorists were running a command and control center in the compound, but cnn cannot verify that, at least not yet seen as clarissa ward is here we've been tel aviv watching all of this unfold. what is the latest clarissa well, international condemnation has been pouring in. >> this was a particularly gruesome attack, wolf, according to gaza's civil defense of the 93 who were killed, 11 of them were children six of them were women and i do want to caution our viewers again, that's some of the images in this report are incredibly distressing the strike hit before dawn as worshippers gathered to perform the fuzzer prayer shortly after rescue workers arrived to a scene from hell i'm not going to be meeting with daddy. this
3:23 pm
bruce where is daddy? amid the carnage? there is no way to know the answer the ground is covered with blood and bodies but it is the whaling that is perhaps most harrowing gaza's civil defense says that around 6,000 people were sheltering at the altai by an islamic school compound in gaza city. many had recently arrived from the north after the idf issued new evacuation orders, there mohamad comforts her son, sobbing over the loss of his father they were all in pieces and dismembered. she says, i went to look for my husband and i couldn't identify anybody. they were all dismembered israel defense forces claimed the strike targeted hamas and islamic jihad fighters and says
3:24 pm
approximately 20 to 25 militants were killed. cnn cannot verify the number of casualties or if any combatants were among the dead but video from the scene shows the remnants of one munition used a us manufactured gbu-39, small diameter bomb. the strike comes just a day after the u.s. agreed to release $3.5 billion in military aid to israel what did the people we'll do to ? >> this man says, where is the >> it is a stinging reminder that the international community's collective failure to protect innocent palestinian civilians at the al-ahli baptist hospital, family he's gathered to claim their dead and to say a final goodbye diplomatic efforts to reach a ceasefire agreement have
3:25 pm
intensified in the past week for the people of gaza talk of peace rings hollow the idf said in a statement that the munitions that it used in that attack were small and that they were precise and that they would not be able to create the kinds tens of images of destruction and death that you have seen there. but wolf, we actually spoke to two separate weapons experts, one of them, a former us army eod bomb technician, and they said that if the room was crowded, even a small diameter bomb like the gbu 39, could, in fact cause those casualties. and according to gaza civil defense, there were roughly 200 people in the room when that strike happened, gathering for that dawn prayer walls, we got these 2000 pound bombs. they were much smaller biles precision bombs as they're called, but still capable of killing a lot of people obviously the ressa thank you very much for that report right now, israeli firefighting teams are badly
3:26 pm
multiple fires in northern israel after the idf intercepted multiple drone launches from hezbollah in south lebanon heading into israeli towns territory. the israeli military says several areas are affected, but no casualties have been reported at least so far. all this comes as sources are now telling cnn that his bulla says it is ready to strike israel, independent of iran and neck could happen within days as fears of an imminent iranian attack threatened to widen the conflict into a much wider regional war. cnn's ben wedeman is joining us now from beirut. ben, what more are you hearing right now about these intercepted drones coming into israel from his balah well, hezbollah today wolf has claimed ten separate strikes on targets within israel. the ninth was what was described by hezbollah as a swarm of drones. some of them headed toward the israeli city of suffered some
3:27 pm
fell according to his butler, near the lake lake tai barriers this number ten is a fairly large number for the daily tally of his bulla strikes on israeli targets, israeli planes also carried out a series of strikes along the border within lebanon itself. also this afternoon at about 5:30 local time, israeli war planes flew over beirut to breaking the sound barrier. that's a fairly normal thing to happen in the southern part of the country. but three times within the last five days israeli warplanes have broken the sound barrier over the lebanese capital. and of course that is interpreted as a warning to hezbollah not to retaliate against the killing last week of a senior hezbollah commander, but also a warning to lebanon as a whole that there will be dangerous
3:28 pm
consequences if hezbollah launches such a retaliatory attack. now also, iran has made it clear that it will also strike, but iran is in a different sort of situation. it's a long way away from israel. if you launch a drone from iran it takes hours to get to israel easily detected either by israel or american or other forces that might be involved in trying to head off such an attack. his butler on the other hand, it's forces are on the border with israel. it doesn't take very much time for a missile, a drone, or any other sort of projectile. projectile to get into israel. and therefore, his bulla in a sense, poses a much greater risk to israel. and we heard from the leader of hezbollah, hassan nasrallah twice, two speeches within ten days that the last ten days that hezbollah will attack israel.

condemning an apparent data breach of the trump campaign story is still developing, but right now, the trump campaign pointing to a report from microsoft saying in june that a group run by an iranian intelligence units and a spear phishing email to a presidential campaign. now, microsoft wouldn't specify which campaign the trump team has not provided any additional details except to say that they believe they have been hacked. joining us now is jamil jaffer, former counsel to the assistant attorney general for national security, jamil. thanks so much for being here with us. i think everyone is trying to process what what this means more broadly, as we still are waiting for a lot more information to come out. so what's your initial reaction to this news of this apparent hack of the trump campaign? >> well jessica what we know is that the data that's been leaked or that was sent to politico allegedly was a vetting memo about j.d vance in the leadup his selection as vice president. and what we've heard is that mike is that is that the trump campaign is saying that it was microsoft talking about them, that we
3:35 pm
don't know for sure because microsoft hasn't said which campaign according about that the spear phishing email was sent to. however, the kamala harris campaign has said it wasn't them the trump campaign is saying it was them. so i think we do know now it does appear clear that it was these iranian hackers, the question now is, what exactly is ron trying to achieve? and who else is in the mix. we know that us intelligence committee, just about a week ago, but out information saying that both iraq bonn, and russia, and china at some level, we're trying to get involved the current election cycle and so war broadly, how concerning how significant is it that this has happened? well, jessica, obviously this is troubling because if we know that foreign nation states are trying to get into our campaigns and leak data. they're trying to do something damaging. the question is, what are they doing? are they trying to influence voters for or against a candidate? are they trying to simply undermine our trust in the election system what is going on here? why are they doing it? we know they've been active in prior campaigns now, it, looks like they're starting pretty early in this process and it's going to get more and more aggressive as this, as this goes forward what does
3:36 pm
this mean as we now lead into really the immediacy part of this campaign these months that are going to lead in to november, do you expect to see more of this? >> and what does it mean for the average american? can they have a good faith that the elections will be protected from this sort of interference well, i think this is exactly the challenge jessica, is that we now know without a doubt that foreign governments are seeking to influence at least our knowledge or understand the election cycle, right? >> we're not sure if there can actually be able go after a vote to the liking fact, i think our system is pretty well protected against that type of attack. but we know that they're trying to influence us and given that, i think the american public has come together and say, look, we're going to put our candidates based not on what we're hearing about these leaks in the life in these narratives are being spread. but on what we know about the candidates and who we trust to be our next leader. that's how we got to decide. and frankly, we've got to come together as a nation and recognize that these are foreign actors trying to undermine her own conference and the democracy, democratic system and our democracy and what that can look like right?
3:37 pm
it's posts online on verified reports that they get circulated around. and i often tell my friends and family when they asked me, what was this true, it's check your star with checking your sources first. he always know where this information is coming from. >> no, that's exactly right. look, if you're see it on tiktok or whatsapp or instagram check it right? go, go look it up on a credible news site checks cnn, check in on the credibility side. would you ever new site you trust, see and verify and then there are these websites that sort of knocked down untrue rumors, snopes.com and others, places you can look for verified i don't just take what you see online at face value more often than not, even if it accords will you think probably isn't accurate right. >> to meal jaffer, thanks so much again, that breaking news that the trump campaign saying it's been hacked for what it calls, for an actor, we will see what more we learn about this. thank you so much. we appreciate it. >> thanks, jessica and a list of top white house officials are going to the middle east in a bid to get a gaza ceasefire

3:43 pm
many more injured according to gaza officials, the idf says they were targeting members of hamas, but cnn cannot yet verify that the attack has some world leaders ramping up pressure for a ceasefire and hostage deal, including tonight from the vice president kamala harris. listen to this far too many civilians who have been killed. i mean, israel has a right to go after the terrorists that are hamas but as i have said, many, many times they also have i believe, but important responsibility to avoid civilian casualties, we need a hostage deal and we needed ceasefire. and i can't stress that strongly enough it needs to get done. the deal needs to get done, it needs to get done now joining. >> me now cnn, political and global affairs analyst and axios politics and foreign policy reporter barak ravid, rock, thanks very much for joining us. what do you make of
3:44 pm
kamala harris, his comments that we just heard now, will that help restart these talks? >> hi wolf. i think it just shows you how much the administration needs this ceasefire and this hostage deal. and it is willing to put all of its chips on it and all of its efforts. and we are going into a very dramatic week when we'll see president biden's top middle east it's advisor brett mcgurk going to the region in a day or two, then secretary of state blinken, my join also and travel to the middle east and on thursday there's this negotiation summit may be the last chance, maybe the now or never hostage deal on thursday when cia director bill burns will lead the us, nick go team. so this is going to be a very dramatic week. and i think what we heard from vice president harris just shows you how much does ministration wants this week to end with a breakthrough towards the hostage and
3:45 pm
ceasefire deal in gaza. >> do we know if this critically important first-day meeting on the hostage release and a ceasefire, will it take place in cairo or doha, qatar? >> we still don't know. i think a lot of it will depend on what will happen in the next 244872 hours when it comes to whether iran or hezbollah will attack israel, because this will change the whole, the whole picture and i think this is what the biden administration is still trying to see. the calories are trying to see what's going on. the egyptians, they're all trying to press the iranians and hizballah not to do anything before thursday, but anything that happens on this front on what the iranians are going to do and what his boss is going to do is going to influenced dramatically this summit on thursday i what's really significant as these negotiations for a hostage
3:46 pm
release and a ceasefire come at a time when israel is awaiting the possibility of the very real possibility of major retaliatory attacks from iran or hezbollah, or both both in your recent article. >> and actually, you said, and i'm quoting you now, the u.s. and israel still don't have a clear idea about when such an attack could happen. but the general assessment is that his balah is likely to attack first possibly this weekend to us israeli two us officials. and one israeli official said so barak, how could these potential attacks change the dynamic of a ceasefire deal and can israel continue to fend off these barrages? >> i'll give, you an anecdote to answer your question yesterday, secretary blinken calls the israeli ministry of defense, yoav gallant and one of the things that blinken tells him, it doesn't look hizballah or iran or both. might attack you in the next few days it's important that you will not retaliate or
3:47 pm
respond in a way that will further escalate the situation and prevent us from getting to this hostage deal. so the u.s pressure is not only on iran kids balla to prevent them from retaliating, it's also on israel in case that if iran do retaliate that, israel will somehow maintained the most restraint possible in order not to harm those this summit on thursday so bottom line, number rock, do you think israel is about to enter a much wider scale war with both iran and hezbollah i think this is i think this is why this week is so dramatic and so sensitive and so dangerous because things can go either way we can see a scenario and we can definitely see a path that you can get to thursday and you get a major breakthrough in the hostages and ceasefire negotiations.
3:48 pm
>> but you can also we'll see a path where hezbollah or iran, are both due attack israel in the next 244872 hours and then everything is unraveled. then you find yourself in a much deeper and wider conflict. and i think this is the, this is why this is such a dramatic week for us diplomacy, because the biden visit mr. hur is trying on the one hand prevent this war from widening and on the other hand, you know, use this opening to maybe get a hostage deal that will change the whole atmosphere in the region this thursday is shaping up to be a potentially extremely critical, critical day. barak ravid, thanks very much for joining us and jessica back to you in new york. >> all we'll see you and barack for that what's left of debby now gone, but the northeast still feeling its impact with dangerous flash flooding as another potential tropical storm brews in the atlantic. here in the cnn newsroom tomorrow on the whole
