"nbc news daily" starts right now.

toda, tuesday, october 1st, 2024. breaking news. under attack. iran fires a barrage of ballistic missiles against israel, sirens blare as they light up the night sky. the violence escalates. also breaking, sean diddy combs faces a tsunami of new allegations. what we've just learned. grinding halt. tens of thousands of dockworkers are off the job and on the picket lines. what workers are demanding. and the right track, it's been dubbed the coachella of sports. i'll show you how one event is looking to take track and field mainstream. thank you so much for being us. we begin with that breaking news out of middle east. iran launching a ballistic

missile attack against israel. rockets began streaking across the sky, iran unleashed a massive amount of firepower and the idf said 180 missiles were fired. it's unclear if any of them hit their designated targets with many being intercepted by israel's iron dome defense forces. so far there are no fatalities reported from this specific attack and all of this comes just hours after israel launched as what it described limited ground operations in southern lebanon, israel said the ground raids are targeting hezbollah strongholds. joining me now is matt bradley in beirut. and monica alba in washington.

and tom winter here in new york. matt, i'll start with you on the ground there, you witnessed these strikes firsthand, what more can you tell us about this attack and its impact across israel tonight? >> reporter: i didn't actually see the strikes, we're well out of range of any strikes, north of israel, we did watch them on tv and we saw that there was obviously, this was quite a large attack, much, much bigger than the one that happened in april, that's what we heard from the israelis as well. the one happened in april unprecedented attack saw the iranians striking against israelis and the israelis fighting back, it almost a -- something they could step back from and kind of pretend they had both scored points against each other for domestic

consumption. this one looks like it's almost despite the fact that we heard from israelis there were no injuries or death. this is one that could potentially bring the entire region to the brink of war. now you're asking me about these attacks, here in beirut, they're very, very relevant, because right here in this area is a large presence of hezbollah in this country and hezbollah has been coming under relentless attack over the last several weeks. hezbollah just lost its leader nasrallah a couple of days ago. it's the most fearsome nonmilitary fighting group in the region and it will be involved should iran decide to retaliate once again or should there be a wider war. >> matt, thank you. mon kansas national security adviser jack sullivan called this a significant escalation by

iran. walk us through u.s.'s involvement in defending israel from this specific attack and what's the communication like right now between israel and the u.s. >> reporter: much like in april, there was a scenario where the u.s. pledged to help israel in its defense and to make sure they played a role in trying to help shore-up some of those air defense systems to intercept those projectiles and missiles. we know from the national security adviser and secretary of state blinken it was something like 200 ballistic missiles that were fired from iran into israel and so that's a new development, because we had wondered in terms of quantity comparing it to the april, from early this morning, president biden and vice president harris be been huddled with national security officials how they would support israel in their defense against this attack.

indications that the u.s. government and intelligence they had gleaned that this attack was imminent and indeed it came a short hours after that, secretary blinken did say in effect that this attack was defeated and really not effective compared to what iran would have maybe tried to do here. similar language to april seeing these intercepts actually be successful and for now national security sullivan said that the u.s. doesn't have any knowledge of any deaths in israel as a result of the shrapnel and the pieces from these missiles or projectiles that can fall into civilian area. some of this information could still change and some of that was still pretty preliminary. he wanted to be sure to stress that the u.s. feels that iran was not able to conclude its mission and what it wanted to do

here at the same time, the priority of the u.s. and the biden administration has been to prevent any kind of a wider war and he said, sullivan said, it's too soon to tell what kind of response israel will have. >> tom, part of where this story goes is to you, just before this missile strike, a shooting attack in tel aviv, i understand you have some reporting on that. >> that's right, boy, nothing to underscore the challenges of these active shooter and one or two individuals acting out in terrorism when -- certainly over 100 ballistic missiles fired at israel, no initial reports of any injuries, yet just moments before you're looking at the scene from south of center of

tel aviv, part of tel aviv, where apparently six individuals were killed, nine others injured as a result of an attack. two suspects also died. this happened near mass transit as we're looking at right now. so really so far at least the most effective action against israel today has been this terrorist attack, that's what's being described as israeli national police as well as u.s. officials briefed on it. who's responsible for it in that region all still to be determined. they're calling at this point an apparent terrorist attack and again, six dead, nine injured, all surrounding mass transit there in tel aviv. >> all right, matt bradley in beirut. monica alba and tom winter, thank you all. we're following breaking news related to embattled music

mogul sean diddy combs. an attorney representing a 120 new accusers said 25 were minors when the alleged crimes took place. let's get to chloe melas. this came out of a press conference earlier today. >> the attorney is based out of houston, texas, a powerful litigator, he said that recently he's had over 3,000 individuals come forward with accusations against sean combs and others, defendants that he'll name in due time, he said the names will shock you, this is not a class action lawsuit, this will be individual suits filed in various states, he said they've collected pictures, video, text messages and they're still in the vetting process and is urging others to come forward.

he's representing over 120 accusers. he said 50% are male, the other half female and he said some of those include minors, 25 individuals right now were under age at the time of these allegations. . we reached out to his legal team for comment we haven't heard back. he also says that these allegations of assault and rape that happened drugging he claims took place at parties that combs would have, at his residences across the country. he claims there were very powerful individuals who watched these alleged abusive incidents. he said this all took place over the course of decades. it started as early as 1991. and also took place like i said in states like new york, florida, georgia, california. you know, this is all coming just a few weeks after diddy was part of this massive indictment

here in the southern district of new york, where he was charged with three different crimes and he's currently being held at the metropolitan detention center in brooklyn, where he's awaiting trial and obviously, this is part of other civil claims that we've seen be filed against combs. don't forget his girlfriend, former girlfriend, a singer, she accused him what started all of this back in november of sex trafficking and rape and assault, that was settled just 24 hours later. and combs denying at the time any instant of abuse. again, he's sitting behind bars, the most significant thing that's happened since the civil suit last year and it will be interesting to see when these civil suits are filed and these other high-profile individuals he claims that he'll name in

these. >> chloe, thank you so much. let's take a turn now to today's money minute. arkansas is taking on youtube and breyers is settling a lawsuit over ice cream. the faa grounded spacex fol con-9 rocket after it malfunctioned. ordered spacex to investigate the issue. the malfunction caused the rocket booster to fall into the pacific ocean outside of the designated safety zone. the arkansas attorney general is suing youtube and its parent company alphabet of accusing the platform of fueling a mental health crisis among young people. the lawsuit claims the site is designed to be addictive, forcing arkansas to spend millions to expand mental health and other services for young

people. breyers will play nearly $9 million to settle a lawsuit over its natural vanilla ice cream, customers who bought the ice cream from 2016 to 2024 are eligible for a cash payment. the lawsuit alleged that the ice cream was falsely marketing as being naturally derived when it wasn't. the parent company has denied wrongdoing. a little ice cream lawsuit. >> a little dessert drama, oh, my. still ahead, new emerges from hurricane helene's path of destruction. plus, j.d. vance and tim walz get ready to square off in walz get ready to square off in tonight's vice presentialid one thing we know is true: no matter race, gender, ethnicity... the need to screen when due... for colon cancer's a priority. indeed! everyone 45+ at average risk should screen for colon cancer. these folks are getting it

the first and only vice presidential debate of the election season is now just hours away. republican ohio senator j.d. vance and democratic minnesota governor tim walz will face off in new york city the first time they've ever met in person the critical showdown for both men comes five weeks until election day. joining us now from the debate site, dash yaburns and kelly o'donnell. >> they expect that senator vance will come out of the gate

with a more pugnacious style, a lot of his atmosphere on the campaign style, they're prepared for that, i've been told that he won't be looking to fact-check j.d. vance if there are issues coming up. what they want him to do is to be able to tell the story of kamala harris and really advocate for her, because they believe voters most often are looking at. of the ticket when they make a decision about their vote come november and this is a chance for both candidates and certainly for governor walz who's been in office for two terms and a member of congress before that to be on the national stage in a new way, they're hoping he can convey a bit of his heart, talk about the issues and most of all, 90 minutes have a clean performance. >> yeah, dasha, similar question for you, what's team vance saying about this strategy? >> reporter: well, look, they've been trying to raise

expectations, raise the bar for governor tim walsz. look at how much more political experience he has, saying he's going to be more polished, he'll be well prepared and that certainly a strategic move on the part of the vance team. the job is for senator j.d. vance tonight is to try to put tim walz on defense, on the issues where former president trump does well in polling and where harris has some gaps to make up, issues like economy, inflation, immigration, try to have him have to defend the biden/harris administration on those issues and hopefully help the former president that way. >> as kelly astutely said, typically a vice presidential debate is consequential. former president donald trump is in wisconsin today and he's said he will not debate vice president harris again, but could perception of vance's performance tonight change that at all?

>> reporter: well, look, the former president trump, the caveat he can always change his event. he'll be play by play on social. we'll see at the end of this if the former president is ultimately comfortable with his running mate having the last word on the debate stage in this election cycle. >> kelly, for her part vice president harris doesn't have any public evens today, campaign surrogates will be going to debate. who are we expecting to see. >> reporter: well, certainly a very different approach when mr. trump wants to have the last word. kamala harris is taking a different style. her campaign will be represented in the spin room here, with a number of prominent democrats senator klobuchar, senator mark kelly. two can come in and reinforce

the key messages of this night after the debate is over and lead the reporters who will be in this room to the standout moments going forward. part of the buzz and tradition of debate night and set the narrative for what happens after the 90 minutes are done. >> different approaches from both campaigns. interesting to see which one wins the voters. thank you both. nbc news will have special coverage of tonight's debate hosted by cbs news, our coverage begins at 8:00 p.m. eastern on your local nbc station and streaming right here on nbc news now coming up, this isn't a scene from top gun, folks who the pentagon proclamation for the pentagon proclamation for the dangero mus ov(♪♪) “the darkness of bipolar depression made me feel like life was moving on without me. then i found a chance to let in the lyte.” discover caplyta. unlike some medicines that only treat bipolar i, caplyta is proven to deliver significant symptom relief from both bipolar i & ii depression.

degrees in san francisco, and our hottest temperature will be in gilroy today into two tomorrow, with a high of 112 degrees and into the day on thursday. we're still looking at some triple digit temperatures, but a lot more of those 90s as our heat gradually fades. thank you kerry. with these heat advisories, we could see some power shutoffs to limit the risk of wildfires because gusty winds are also in the forecast. here's nbc bay area's bob redell. livermore expected to hit 104 degrees today. you can imagine pools, community pools like this one behind me will be very popular, very popular destination for people trying to cool off during this heat advisory that lasts until at least tomorrow night. in the north bay, pg&e still warning about the possibility of public safety power shutoffs over concerns that the winds there could rattle power lines and spark a wildfire during this hot weather. the utility has given

notice to more than 140 pg&e customers in northwest napa county to be ready for no electricity. pg&e had also warned hundreds of customers here in the east bay, namely in contra costa and alameda counties, about the possibility of no power. but winds weren't as bad here in the east bay, so the agency canceled those warnings. so in addition to the heat, the other thing we're concerned with right now is just the wind and the humidity with the breeze that we're anticipating, it is likely going to get stronger and gusty in those upper elevations. it would not surprise us if we see a red flag warning issued by the national weather service in the north bay mountains. he's a division chief with the santa rosa fire department, reminding everyone to limit any sort of outdoor activity that could lead to a wildfire, like using gasoline powered tools near dry brush. this was the scene last night in concord, where a fire broke out off ignacio valley road and cal roads. there were no damage to any structures, but the it

was very dangerous for firefighters wearing all that heavy equipment, fighting that fire and temps that were around 95 degrees here in livermore. bob redell nbc, bay area news. thank you bob. you can track these temperatures and possible power shutoffs on our free nbc bay area app. you can download it right now on our app store. here are some other stories you need to know about. police are investigating what they call a suspicious fire in the east bay. san francisco leaders are working to stop sideshows in the city. but first, san francisco is pushing to get tough on rv dwellers. san francisco transit leaders are expected to vote on a plan later today. it would tow rvs that violate overnight parking bans. the move is part of mayor london breeds plan to ban large vehicles like trailers and rvs from parking on all city streets from midnight until 6 a.m, but the idea is drawing blowback from homeless advocates, so they are organizing a rally today ahead of the sfmta board meeting. also in san francisco today, city leaders are cracking down on

sideshows. the board of supervisors approved a new ordinance last week to increase criminal penalties for anyone planning or participating in sideshow activities. today, the board will hold a second vote to send it to the mayor for final approval. investigators say they're still trying to get to the bottom of what sparked these flames overnight in san leandro. they say the fire happened around 730 last night at a home on williams street. that's near hawkins elementary. no one was hurt, but now two families are displaced. investigators say the fire seemed suspicious. crews were on scene overnight monitoring for potential flare ups. now a reminder minnesota governor tim walz and ohio senator jd vance go head to head in the vice presidential debate tonight. it is hosted by cbs news. and you can watch it right here on nbc bay area. our coverage begins at 5 p.m, and the debate will begin at six. following the debate, we'll have

under the emmett till case. one reason for the doj to weigh in here is that there's still not a lot is known. a theory white people wanted to steal the property of black people and the assault the justification for that was just a cover, the doj civil rights division will use some of the same techniques they use, it will publish a report likely by the end of the year. anyone with documents send an e-mail to cold case e-mail inbox. >> ken, you mentioned the descendants and victims who have been fighting for justice and accountability for decades. how are they reacting to the doj taking action now.

does mark farrell have the right experience to shake up city hall? in nearly ten years as supervisor, mark grew the bureaucracy by authorizing or creating a commission almost every year. he rubber stamped hundreds of millions to homeless nonprofits with zero accountability and orchestrated a pay-to-play scheme that sold out taxpayers to the highest bidder. mark farrell has all the wrong experience for the change we need.

in today's daily health, september was pain awareness month here in the u.s. but time to address common misconceptions and issues that people with pain can face. today we're focusing on chronic pain, a common condition that affects 20% of adults across the country. thank you so much for being here. can you help define chronic pain for us, what is it and what exactly does it feel like? >> yes, thank you. for having me to talk about this really important topic. so, pain is the universal human experience, everybody has pain and everybody experiences pain. but chronic pain can be defined as pain that lasts approximately three months if not longer after the initial injury and it's often associated with other

problems that start to occur over time. like, mental health problems like depression and anxiety. patients may start feeling socially isolated. they may quit doing their exercises. >> as you're outlining chronic pain clearly is complicated and can be hard to treat. so what are some challenges doctors run into? >> well, i think the first channel that most physicians run into is the lack of training that is provided in medical schools about how to treat chronic pain. there's actually very few hours that are dedicated in a medical school curriculum for them. pain becomes complex over time, right, not only physical pain but mental pain, so there aren't really easy solutions for a very complex problem and in the past we've relied overly on

medications that have been found to be problematic like high dose opium medication and lack of resources and affordable care in order to address the complexities of chronic pain. >> on this show we talked about racial and gender disparities in health care before, if someone is going to doctor and saying they're having chronic pain. >> i think that it's important to continue to have conversations with your primary physician, i think it's good to lean on family and friends and share your experience so you don't get socially isolated, and ask for a referral to a pain specialist like myself, if a provider doesn't feel like they have the knowledge or the expertise they can always lean on other specialists and patients should be treated in a multidisciplinary way including

physical therapists, pharmacists and others who should be helping the patient in a holdistic manner. >> thank you so much. we really appreciate it. we really appreciate it. thanks for before taking breztri for my copd, i had bad days. days ruined by flare-ups [cough] that could permanently damage my lungs. then i talked to my doctor about breztri, and i noticed things changed. breztri gave me better breathing. ♪♪ starting within 5 minutes, my lung function improved. ♪♪ breztri also helped improve my symptoms... and was even proven to reduce flare-ups... including those that could send me to the hospital. now i worry less about bad days... and enjoy more good days. breztri won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. it is not for asthma. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. don't take breztri more than prescribed. breztri may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteoporosis. call your doctor if worsened breathing,

this time of year with highs in the upper 70s. and by next monday we're going to see low 70s with the return of clouds and

area, consumers likely need to be on al consumer investigator chris chmura explains why. hurricane helene swept through half a dozen or so states, swamping homes, businesses and countless cars. the company carfax doesn't have an exact estimate of how many cars yet, but it's saying tens of thousands of cars have suffered flood damage this hurricane season. and here's the problem shady used car traders reliably move those cars to sell them elsewhere. like here. take a look at this carfax map. the darkest colors show where the most flooded cars are washing up, and california is a deep

navy blue. let's be clear. you do not want to buy a car that was in a flood. so if you're in the market for a used car in the next few months, check the vehicle history. if it shows it came from the east coast, think twice. another warning. really shady sellers will try to hide that car's history. so even if a used car supposedly wasn't back east during hurricane season, try a couple things before you buy it. snif a musty smell. look for foggy headlights, tail lights or signals and pull up the carpets. see if there's any sign of sand, silt or mud. ideally, hire a mechanic for a professional inspection. we made a to how video all about avoiding flooded cars. it's on our website and streaming channels. just look for the to how playlist. thanks kris. also, we want to give you a heads up tomorrow night, nbc bay area is hosting our own debate for the 16th congressional district seat. former san jose mayor sam liccardo and assembly member
