the microscope this morning. kyla? >> reporter: in between interviews on sunday, secretary kerry's microphone was open. he was recorded while talking about the violence on sunday. >> it's a hell of a pinpoint operation. it's a hell of a pinpoint operation. >> right. it's escalating and underscores the need for a cease-fire. >> we've gotta get over there. thank you, john. i think, john, we ought to go tonight. i think it's crazy to be sitting around. >> reporter: the state department told me today kerry is scheduled to arrive in egypt this afternoon. officials have been trying to broker a cease-fire between israel and the terrorist group, hamas. in the past two weeks, fighting has killed at least 500 palestinians and 20 israelis and displaced tens of thousands of gaza residents. two american-born soldiers for the israeli defense forces were also killed. the israeli military said it destroyed two more tunnels that hamas terrorists were using to

attack israel. kerry talked about that when he defended his conversation caught on an open mic. >> war is tough. i said that publicly and i will say it again. we defend israel's right to do what it is doing in order to get at those tunnels. >> kerry and other international leaders are calling for a cease-fire in gaza and israel but so far hamas has said it's not willing to back down. live in washington. kyla campbell, ktvu channel 2 news. just about a half-hour ago at the white house, president obama signed and executive order to protect lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender employees from discrimination in the workplace. the order will protect from discrimination. this applies to the 24,000 companies designated as federal contractors who employ 28 million workers. 8:15. president obama also plans to

that's why it now has to be our focus and the focus of the international community to bring about a cease-fire that ends the fighting and that can stop the deaths of innocent civilian, both in gaza and israel. so secretary kerry will meet with allies and partners. i've instructed him to push for an immediate cressation of hostilities based on -- cessation on hostilities based on the 2012 cease-fire agreement between israel and hamas in gaza. the work will not be easy. obviously, there are enormous packs involved in this -- passions involved in this and some very difficult strategic issues involved. nevertheless, i've asked john to do everything he can to help facilitate a cessation to hostilities. we don't what want to see more -- want to see more civilians

get killed. now to the malaysian plane crash. over the last several days, our hearts have been absolutely broken as we have learned more about the extraordinary and beautiful lives that were lost. men, women, and children and infants killed so suddenly and so senselessly. our thoughts and prayers continue to be with their families around the world who are going through unimaginable grief. i've had the opportunity to speak to a number of leaders around the world whose citizens were lost on this flight and all of them remain in a state of shock but frankly also in a state of outrage. our immediate focus is on recovering those who were lost.

investigating exactly what happened and putting forward the facts. we have to make sure the truth is out and accountability exists. international investigators are on the ground. they've been organized. i've seen teams. other countries have sent teams. they are prepared. they are organized to conduct what should be the kinds of protocols and scouring and collecting of evidence that should follow any international incident like this. and what they need right now is immediate and full access to the crash site. they need to be able to conduct a prompt and full and up impeded as well as -- unimpeded as well as transparent investigation. recovery personnel have to do the solemn and sacred work of recovering the remains of those who were lost.

now, ukrainian president pore row shen co has declared a zone around the crash site. there's teams already prepared to conduct the investigation and recover the remains of those who have been lost. but unfortunately, the russian- backed separatists to control the area continue to block the investigation. they've repeatedly prevented international investigators from gaining full access to the investigation. as investigators approached, they fired their weapons in the air. the separatists are removing evidence from the crash site, all of which begs the question what exactly are they trying to hide? moreover, these russian-backed separatists are removing bodies from the crash site. oftentimes, without the care that we would normally expect from a tragedy like this. this is an insult to shows who have lost loved ones. it's the kind of behavior that has no place in the community of

nations. russia has extraordinary influence over these spris. russia has urged them on, russia has trained them. we know that russia has armed them with military equipment and weapons, including anti- aircraft weapons. key separatists leaders, russian citizens. so given its direct influence over the separatists, russia and president putin in particular has direct responsibility to compel them to cooperate with the investigation. that's the least that they can do. president putin says that he supports a full and fair investigation. i appreciate those words but they have to be supported by actions. the burden now is on russia to insist that the separatists stop tampering with the evidence, grant investigators who are already on the ground

immediate full and unimpeded access to the crash site. the separatists and the russian sponsors are responsible for the safety of the investigators doing their work. and along with our allies and partners, we will be working this issue with the united nations today. more broadly, as i've said throughout this crisis and the crisis in ukraine generally -- i've said this directly to president putin as well as public -- my presence continues to be fighting a diplomat diplomatic revolution in -- a diplomatic revolution in ukraine. if russia continues to violate the sofnernty and back these separatistses and -- sovereignty and back these separatists, then russia will only further isolate itself from the international community and the costs for russia's behavior will only

continue to increase. now is the time for president putin and russia to pivot away from this tragedy that they've been taking and get serious about trying to resolve hostilities within ukraine in a way that respect's ukraine's sovereignty and respects the right of the ukrainian people to make decisions about their own life lives. time is of the essence. our feands and allies need to be able to recover those who were lost. that's the least we can do. families deserve to be able to lay their loved ones to rest with dignity. the world deserves to know exactly what happened and the people -- >> you've been listening live to president obama giving another statement on the situation in ukraine regarding the plane crash. he did first mention the

situation in the middle east saying secretary kerry is heading there with the increasing concern about the rising number of doeckets on both sides -- on both sides and then he pivoted to the situation in ukraine. said it's been four days since the plane went down. at this point, he's extremely concerned about the effort to try to recover the victims and he said that those teams that are being sent to the area need full and immediate access to the crash site. but the separatists are blocking the site, firing shots in the area and he said they are apparently removing evidence. he asked what are they trying to hide. he pointedly asked russian president vladimir putin to encourage those separatists to make the site available. but russian president vladimir putin i saw in the moscow times criticized using this plane crash for political gains. and he also pointed out that

anyone who does that in many ways is hurting the cause. >> president obama just said that putin has direct influence over the separatists there and he said his preference is to find a diplomatic solution to what's happening in ukraine. but if russia doesn't change, russia will be further isolated around the world. >> heating up a little bit. >> yes. >> we'll continue to follow this story. right now we want to check in with sal on traffic. apparently there is a brand-new injury crash. >> westbound 24 at 580 there is a crash reported. as the president was speaking, it was first reported. motorcyclist down and then the chp arrived on the scene. they were able to pick up the motorcycle and get to the right- hand side. it's still very slow there. coming away from the caldecott. even though the injuries appear to be not serious, which is

good, the traffic is building to the 580 interchange. let's go to the bay bridge toll plaza, you can see traffic is going to be busy as you get up to the toll plaza. about a 25-minute drive time into san francisco. and if you are looking at northbound 101 and san jose, 85 and 17 a little bit of slow traffic a couple of minor crashes, 85 northbound. i also want to mention on the peninsula traffic a little bit slow in palo alto. but from san mateo to redwood city it looks good. let's go to steve. cloudy to mostly cloudy skies. the tropical clouds are definitely heading north. but ever so slowly. the low clouds are in place. yes, it's mild out there. a lot of 60s. mid-60s. upper 60s to 70. it's 62 in the city. 68 palo alto. los altos hills, 65. foster city, 67. belmont, 66. la honda, 63. tropical clouds will give more thunderstorm activity to the sierra. the line is lifting.

36 minutes from the carquinez bridge to the macarthur maze. that's more than double the time it takes when traffic is doing well. so please give yourself extra time. when you get to the bay bridge toll plaza, you will be waiting for 20, 25 minutes here getting into san francisco we have the late morning backup getting in through the area. we also do have slow traffic on 580 in livermore. as we look at the maps here, 580 traffic is going to be busy as you drive through on 580 to dublin. it gets better on the bay to castro valley. just a lot of slow traffic on southbound 880 as you drive down to hayward. 17 miles an hour near tennyson there. let's go to steve. >> thank you, sir. very good morning. mostly cloudy. a couple of breaks there. the low clouds are in place. but the tropical clouds are inching northward. a lot of reports of drizzle in san francisco daly city, take your pick. you can start to -- it's not clearing that fast. but the trend is to take the higher clouds north. the sierra nevada will have another round of thunderstorms

today and tomorrow. there's plenty of moisture up there. it's lifted northward. it will pick up later in the afternoon when we get heating. line of tropical clouds kind of rotating most down to -- northwest down to southwest. it's lifting. peninsula, south bay and east bay, i think will get in on some sun today. if you do, the humidity factor is really high. the temperatures are very warm for this time of year. 68 sfo, 68 livermore. some 70s already. would not surprise me. higher elevations running cooler. upper 60s. san jose state is at 68. these are way above average as you might imagine. the decent delta breeze. generally a component because the water temperatures are so warm, the lows are unking warm. there's another system to the north. i think that kind of stalls that tropical band out to the north bay in mendocino county, lake county. mostly cloudy, light shower or drizzle. more sun to the south. kind of muggy on the

temperatures here. 77 novato. santa rosa at 75. 79 concord. pleasant hill out to brentwood and oakley's 85. the humidity to match. oakland 72. walnut creek, danville, 87 morgan hill. probably the leader of the pack. gilroy not far away. 78 redwood city. a lot of 70s the peninsula. mid- to upper as well. 60 balmy degrees on the coast to many areas due to the warms being so warm. there will be a lot of drizzle tuesday night, wednesday. it looks like high pressure builds in. warmer weather by the weekend inland. >> interesting weather. it's kind of interesting. they are young, they are single. but will they stay that way. after the break, a possible trend among young adults when it comes to getting married.
