♪ hello and thanks so much for staying up with us. i'm shanelle kaul in new york, and here are the top stories on "cbs news roundup." mexico and canada are pushing back against president-elect donald trump's threats of high tariffs on imported goods. more than a million ukrainian households are without power after massive russian attack against kyiv's energy infrastructure. and it was a down home thanksgiving celebration for tens of thousands of americans serving overseas. canada and mexico are reacting to president-elect donald trump's promise of a 25% tax on their goods exported to the u.s. this comes as a growing number of public officials in the u.s. are reporting bomb threats and other forms of harassment. cbs' natalie brand reports from washington. >> reporter: a day after some of president-elect donald trump's

cabinet picks were targeted, several democratic members of congress from connecticut reported receiving bomb threats at their homes on thanksgiving. that includes senator chris murphy and congressman jim himes who posted on social media about the incident saying police found no real threat, but adding there is no place for political violence in this country. the threats are under investigation and appear to be a form of swatting, or misleading authorities to believe a serious crime is under way in order to elicit a response. president-elect donald trump is spending thanksgiving in palm beach, and president biden in nantucket, where he visited a firehouse and talked to reporters about the transition. >> i want to make sure it goes smooth. and all the talk about what he is going to do and not do, i think there may be a little bit of internal reckoning on his part. >> reporter: president biden also said he hopes trump rethinks his threat of tariffs on china, mexico, and canada. >> i think it's a counterproductive thing to do.

>> reporter: there are new reports a canadian government official said the country is already examining possible retaliatory tariffs. president trump and mexico's president claudia sheinbaum spoke by phone wednesday. trump claiming on social media that she agreed to stop migration through mexico. >> we could have incredible projects and incredible future together, but you must stop the flow of illegal immigration into our country. >> reporter: mexico's leader said the call was productive and said they didn't specifically discuss tariffs. she also posted on x the country's position is not to close borders but to build bridges between governments and people. natalie brand, cbs news, washington. a migrant caravan making its way through mexico is now adding even more pressure to the international rhetoric. around 1500 migrants, primarily from central and south america, are walking hundreds of miles toward the u.s. border. they say they're hoping to arrive before president-elect

donald trump is sworn into turning now to the war in ukraine, where the lights have gone out all over the country after a massive drone attack by russia on thanksgiving morning targeted ukraine's energy infrastructure. it also left more than a million homes and businesses without power. we get details on this from cbs' ramy inocencio in london. >> reporter: for the second time in two weeks, russia launched a nationwide strike against ukraine's energy grid, seen here and confirmed by cbs news, a russian missile exploding over rivne in the country's west. president volodymyr zelenskyy said russia launched almost 200 missiles and drones aimed at forcing the united states to accept russia's terms to ending the war. russian president vladimir putin said nearly 20 targets, including military and defense sites were hit. and at a security summit in neighboring kazakhstan, he

warned kyiv's decision making centers could be next, targeted by russia's new ballistic missiles carrying multiple warheads and which moscow unleashed last week, hitting ukraine's eastern city of dnipro. more than one million people across ukraine lost power as the first snow fell on the eastern front lines. "there is no electricity" said this man in pokrosk. w have cole and firewood. in nick lave in the south we have no water. near ukraine's western border with poland, generators sputtered to life, giving a semblance of normalcy for some. "now yes used to it" said this store clerk. "if there is no light, there is no light, and so we go on living." but the quality of that living will arguably get worse if russia likely amps up its attacks against ukraine's energy

infrastructure and as winter takes hold. but russia hitting ukraine's energy grid has tragically now become traditional. this is the third winter in a row in this war still ongoing. >> ayman al zawahiri, thank you. the ceasefire between israel and the iranian-backed hezbollah militia appears to be holding, and thousands of lebanese residents are now returning to their homes. but many are finding only ruins as entire neighborhoods have been leveled. the u.s. ceasefire went into effect wednesday morning, temporarily halting more than two months of intense israeli air strikes. so far, it's unclear who will pay for reconstruction. about 170,000 americans in the armed forces are stationed in nearly 200 countries around the world. and as cbs' tina kraus reports, the military made sure that on this thanksgiving holiday, they all got a little taste of home. >> where do you want me?

>> reporter: soldiers overseas are savoring the spirit of thanksgiving from thousands of miles away, tucking in to a traditional meal with all the trimmings and a cultural twist. >> because we're also stationed in the republic of korea, we also have some korean traditional foods, kimchee, radish kimchee, those types of things. >> reporter: more than 28,000 u.s. troops are stationed in south korea, and this year higher ranking army officers served the soldiers. sergeant zachary willis enjoyed every bite but says it's not quite the same. >> i definitely miss my grandma's, but this is still pretty good turkey. so i'll take it. >> reporter: the pentagon shipped in 700,000 pounds of food to service members across the globe. huge helpings, including nearly 140,000 pounds of turkey, a mountain of beef, a happy of ham and a sea of shrimp. troops will also feast on 46,000 pounds of sweet potatoes, more than 9,000 cases of pies and cake, and one thousand cases of eggnog.
