prevent the conflict from spreading. >> reporter: as the fighting continues, the humanitarian crisis is getting worse. the biden administration is working to get americans out of gaza through egypt -- >> where we can be safe physically and where they can have access to the essentials, to food, water, medicine, shelter. >> reporter: the u.s. is also ramping up efforts to free hostages. >> hamas wants to see if they can't get something, and i'm sure there will be some kind of exchange that they'll be looking for. >> reporter: a bipartisan group of lawmakers visiting israel was forced to find shelter, after experiencing the dangers firsthand, they vowed to help. >> we are working very hard to put together a comprehensive package to deal with the so many needs that israel has. >> reporter: a sense of urgency to send assistance to israel and to address the growing humanitarian crisis in gaza.

pro-palestinian rally in san francisco. we've reached out to leaders to investigate the crime. outside city hall a number of people waved the israeli flag in support of israel, which was attacked by hamas just over a week ago. a number of israelis are still being held hostage in the gaza strip. >> obviously the ultimate goal is to get them home, but it's also at some point to be proactive in not allowing these things to happen and for the world to realize what israel is dealing with on a daily basis, fighting for their land and their lives. >> i don't think that any murder of innocent babies and grandmothers and youth celebrating a happy festival, there is no justification, and the murder of all those innocent people. >> we want basic human rights in palestine for everyone, including jewish and israeli citizens. we don't want any innocent

suzanne somers, born in san bruno in 1946. in the 1970s, she shot to stardom in "three's company" and later starred in "step by step" and had a huge career in product endorsements, including her own line of personal care products. her she died yesterday after a long battle with breast cancer. today would have been her 77th birthday. the "today" show will celebrate her life. it starts at 7:00 a.m. after "today in the bay." we continue to highlight breast cancer this month, and cleveland clinic researchers are looking at a vaccine, a potential breakthrough that focuses on a protein that exists when a woman is breastfeeding, but findings indicate it is also made when cancer cells arise.

the vaccine focuses on destroying the protein at its earliest formation. we spoke with the first woman to be injected with the shot. she's a triple negative breast cancer survivor and she says after the vaccine, it's helping calm her worries the disease will return. okay, we were hoping to hear from her. let me tell you, the vaccine is actually still in the trial phase. it's also not yet approved for widespread use. right now researchers are primarily focused on treating triple negative breast cancer survivors, with the idea of expanding its use later to others. so promising thing there. >> yes, it is. the san francisco giants reportedly breaking new barriers, leaving the fan base buzzing. according to new reports, the team became the first in the majors to interview a woman for

the position of manager, she's already part of the coaching roster. she previously made history as the mlb's first time ever coach and filled in as first base coach. the giants brass previously said it would interview candidates in house first, before looking outside the organization to replace the previous coach. nobody ever really saw this coming, the undefeated niners, now defeated niners, went into cleveland with an out-and-out role facing a team on the ropes and it was a recipe for a letdown. it hurt, too. star running back christian mccaffrey and star wide receiver deebo samuels both injured during the game. brock purdy played the worst game of his career, and kicker jake mooney missed a 41 yard field goal. we all saw that.

time expired. cleveland upset the niners 19-17, snapping the niners' 15-game regular season winning streak. afterward, brock purdy tried to look forward. >> we've got to look at ourselves in the mirror and see the flaws and stuff and get better. but it starts with me. we're going to learn from it. it's going to sting for the next couple of days, but we've got a good group, so we'll bounce back. >> the team says mccaffrey sufficientlied from a muscle strain. deebo samuels injured his shoulder. the niners play in minnesota one week from today. >> it was kind of brutal to say it was the worst of his career. he's had a short career. >> it was still the worst of his career. there's another team in black and white, they helped beat the niners as well. trending this morning, the return of "saturday night live," and what a way for it to come back. >> did you check it out? pete davidson hosted the return show and poked at everything

ticket. this followed his decision to go 90 in a 55 in savannah, georgia, which prompted officers to stop him, obviously. the court later told him the fine is meant as an added incentive for him to appear in court, because it's the largest fine possible. the court is assuring him he'll only have to pay the issued fine once he answers to the judge, and that will be a lot less than what was actually on the ticket. >> wow. what a way to get you to show up to court. >> that's one way to get you to do that. also, if you do end up having to pay close to that, which they said he wasn't going to have to, you wouldn't have to worry about them speeding more because they don't have a car or a place to stay. >> that would get everyone to slow down. goodness. you thought we would be dipping into fall, but summer is hanging on, kari. >> summer is going to hang on for at least a few days. we're also, at the same time, seeing a cold front. we're going to have a big change in temperatures from the way we

start the week to the way we end the week. as we take a live look at san francisco, watch out for this dense fog that's been rolling around. it's not only here, but also moving through parts of the north bay, a dense fog advisory in effect for some of the north bay valleys until about 10:00 this morning. so just a heads up that visibility may drop rapidly as you're driving around parts of the north bay, especially, and then in san francisco we're in the upper 50s now. as we go throughout the day, we're going to see temperatures slowly climb, because of the cloud cover that will linger not only here, but across the bay area. so we head over toward the tri-valley, where dublin is going to hit a high of 78. we'll be in the upper 70s in martinez and much of the north bay, with santa rosa reaching 78 degrees. tomorrow it heats up, and we'll hit a high of 88 degrees tomorrow afternoon in fairfield. that will be the hot spot compared to the low 80s we'll

see in much of the south bay. on wednesday, those temperatures continue to climb. look at this, some low 90s returning for concord, reaching 90 degrees, and 93 in san martin and morgan hill. this morning we're seeing clouds coming in and there will be the slight chance that we could see some spotty rain in parts of the north bay, with clear lake, santa rosa, ukiah seeing rain right in time for the evening commute. so people getting off of work, heading home, a little bit of light rain moving through. but the heat will build for the end of the week. we'll have the hot temperatures for a few days, but cooling off for the weekend, and then next week we could be watching out for a chance of rain that could approach the bay area. it basically looks like a roller coaster. concord's ten-day temperature trend goes from upper 70s to mid-90s. temperatures the hottest on thursday. then we're back to the 70s for the weekend. next week we're watching out for rain chances. we may only reach into the 60s. so a lot going on here.
