right now on "ana cabrera reports," live on the line in gaza's largest hospital, a warning that al shifa hospital is no longer functioning. doctors say patients including newborns have died since the power went out. i'll talk to a senior adviser to israel's prime minister about the crisis and a potential deal to release hostages held by hamas. plus, a double dose of don jr. the former president eeps eldest son is back on the stand. we have details on the trump family's defense. later, tim scott out of the

2024 presidential race. does the resuccessful turn up the pressure on donald trump? thanks for joining us, it's 10:00 eastern. i'm ana cabrera. dire warnings from gaza, the largest hospital in gaza has stopped functioning after three days without power according to the world health organization. doctors at al shifa hospital says at least three but northerns have died there because they didn't have the electricity to keep them alive. also tracking a potential new deal to free hostages. an israeli american toddler is among the hostages. nbc's jay gray is live from tel aviv with the latest on the situation in gaza. aaron gilchrist is also with us.

jay, what can you tell us? >> reporter: i can tell you the fighting has been intense over the last 48 hours, several hospitals in gaza to be frank. it continues with strikes from the air and with troops moving further into gaza and into these areas that are really now urban areas, dense urban areas. we have heard from the idf that they believe that hamas has very important infrastructure centered in and around these hospitals. that's why they continue the intense fighting there. hamas has said repeatedly that that is not the case and this is an excuse, according to hamas, for the idf to strike these hospitals. we know the biggest and most advanced facility in gaza is al shifa. we know that they have been dealing for days without power, without water, without any type of basic medical supplies there,

and the doctors have told us from inside that hospital that they are hearing constant gunfire and bombing. we also know that there are 36 newborns that had to be removed from incubators because the hospital has completely run out of oxygen. here is what one of the doctors said about that. >> babies were evacuated to the surgical department, the other department, and all of them are wrapped in towels, okay. not in ink baiters. each is in one other bed, and we expect all to die because we don't have water to prepare milk for them. we don't have electricity to provide them with warmth. we don't have staff to care for them. even the staff is scared. >> reporter: i talked to another doctor inside the hospital who

echoes the same fear, that those babies will start to die because they don't have the basics to support life for these children or other critical patients there. there has been talk about moving them. to this point there's been no opportunity to do so. >> those poor babies, those poor innocent families struggling right now. thank you for that, jay. aaron, the white house says a 3-year-old israeli american is among the hostages held by hamas. what more do we know about that child and any white house involvement in hostage talks? >> reporter: this is the first time we've gotten any level of detail about americans held hostage in gaza the white house said previously there were nine americans and one green card holder they knew were among the hostages here. in this read out from president biden's call with the leader of qatar, we learned there is this 3-year-old american who is among the hostages. the readout also saying that the

toddler's parents had been killed in the october 7th attack by hamas on israel. it seems as though at this point -- that level of detail, getting to know that there is a 3-year-old among the american hostages is something that the administration hasn't offered before and clearly seems to be an indicator that this is a situation that has a great level of importance. we know it's been a priority for the administration and several others in the middle east to try to get hostages out. the administration told us very early on it had sent resources into the region from several different agencies, the fbi, the state department, the department of defense, to help with the effort to get hostages out of gaza. we also know there is an ambassador, an envoy sent to work on the humanitarian effort and have dialogue on a daily basis about getting hostages out and what it might take. we did hear from the israel

prime minister and jake sullivan over the weekend that there had been negotiations going on, indicators that progress was being made. they didn't want to get into details on the negotiations. they felt like not saying too much would help the odds of a deal actually coming together. sew wheel be keeping an eye on it, ana, to see if there's progress made on the effort to get hostages out. >> let's play the sound with netanyahu this weekend when he addressed the potential hostage deal. >> so is there a potential deal, mr. prime minister? >> there could be. but i think the less i say about it, the more i'll increase the chances it materializes. it's as a result of the military pressure, the extraordinary work idf is doing, putting pressure on hamas leadership. that's the one thing that might create a deal. if a deal is available, we'll talk about it when it's there.

we'll announce it if it's achieved. >> so jay, on this issue of the hostages, at least check there were 239 hostages according to israeli officials. do we know any information about their condition and if they're even all alive? >> no, we don't, to be quite frank. i can tell you that the only thing weave heard about the conditions of the hostages are from the few who had been released who said they were fed, they were taken care of but didn't go into great detail. that's been a while. that's been weeks. we haven't gotten any up daepts as far as the conditions are concerned. i can tell you that the israeli leadership has been steadfast on this. this has been a red line for them. they have said that there will be no cease-fire, there will be no pause in fighting other than a few hours for humanitarian corridor unless all of the hostages are released. they have not wavered on that from the start of this war. i can also tell you that they

continue, as you just heard from the prime minister to believe that their pressure is going to do something to help get these hostages home. that includes moving into some of the tunnels, the underground spider web, as it's been called, where many of the hostages may be held. they say it also includes these attacks inside urban areas, where they feel like they're reaching some of the command and control areas. >> jay gray and aaron gilchrist, thank you. turning to breaking news overnight, the pentagon announced a new round of u.s. air strikes on two facilities inside syria linked to iranian militant groups. the u.s. says those groups are responsible for recent attacks against american forces in iraq and syria. this is now the third retaliatory strike from the u.s. in recent weeks. here is defense secretary lloyd austin speaking last night in seoul. >> i just want to remind you

that these strikes are intended to disrupt and degrade the freedom of action and capability of these groups which are directly responsible for attacks on u.s. forces in iraq and syria. >> let's get to nbc's pentagon correspondent courtney kube. what more can you tell us about these strikes, courtney, and the message the u.s. is trying to send iran? >> our viewers may think, okay, this is the third round of strikes, and after the first two, what we've heard is there have been more attacks against u.s. bases. that is still the case here now. we have heard that there have been -- we're still working on the exact number, but there have been additional attacks against u.s. bases in syria since the u.s. did these strikes. newspaper northeastern syria, a safe house and training facility, it's different from the previous two strikes. the last two times they hit a weapons and ammunition storage facility. in this case these are facilities that some of these

iranian-backed militia groups operate out of and work out of. this one had more of a potential that there could have seen militants, some of the fighters that may have been present at the time. the u.s. generally conducts these strikes in the middle of the night local time with the goal of not hitting individuals, not striking individuals. in this case, unlike the other two times, there may have been militants, people aligned with these iranian-backed groups present at the time of those strikes. that's what we're trying to figure out. the pentagon is acknowledging there may have been people there. they aren't saying yet how many casualties may have been caused. as i said, there have been more attacks against bases. but what's important to point out is the message that this is supposed to be sending is not just stop these strikes, stop these attacks against u.s. bases, but a message to iran telling them to tell these militia groups to stop carrying out these attacks, with the ultimate concern that an american could be killed in one of these strikes on bases. >> separately, courtney, we have learned several u.s. service

members were killed in a helicopter crash in the mediterranean. what more do we know about that? >> we still don't know a lot of details of what happened in this crash. realistically it's generally a number of weeks if not months before we have a real cause re this is a group of individuals, now identified attached to a special operations a unit. they were doing a -- it was purely a training mission at the time of this accident. they were doing some sort of a refueling training ssion, not too far from cyprus. it was in the eastern mediterranean, it was near israel. the pentagon has very quietly depled some elite special operations forces to cyprus and to the region in case they need to do a large-scale evacuation. we don't know if these individuals were a part of that, but they are the sort of special operators who could have been assigned to that mission if it were to go forward in the future. >> heartbreaking for their families. courtney kube, thank you very much for that. we're back in 60 seconds.

breaking news from a new york courtroom. right now donald trump jr. is on the witness stand once again in the family's multimillion dollar civil fraud trial. he's the first of what's billed to be 100 witnesses for the defense. two weeks ago don jr. told prosecutors he had no direct knowledge of the family financial statements at the

heart of this trial, saying he relied on accountants. nbc's vaughn hillyard joins us from outside the court. also with us, msnbc legal analyst and former prosecutor charles coleman. vaughn, walk us through today's testimony and what we expect as the defense begins to present its case. >> reporter: good morning. the prosecution rested its case on wednesday when ivanka trump took the stand. the defense already indicated, ana, they intend to rest their case come december 15th. we're looking at several weeks of the defense bringing their own witnesses, like in the case of don jr. today, back to the stand. they have presented to the judge a list of 175 potential witnesses they will bring forward. of course, we don't expect them to bring all 175 witnesses to the stand. in the case of don jr., he's already been on the stand for about 20 minutes at this point, and from inside the courtroom, i can tell you don jr. has so far listed out the vast number of

properties that he had direct experience and direct involvement in, building a defense case that he was not in involved in the min issue of the exact valuation of each of the values of these different properties. the defense from don jr. and his brother, eric, so far has been that, yes, they signed off on those actual statements of financial certainty. but in the case of each of them, they left it to the responsibility of the accountants to actually make the final determinations here. of course, after each one of these witnesses answers questions from the defense, the prosecution will have then the opportunity to cross-examine, but we expect here over the course of the next month the defense to try to build a case that will ultimately be determined by the judge here to the extent the two sons, eric and don jr., as well as their father were not directly -- led

to the banks or any of these lenders losing any money. >> vaughn, bring us any updates from this testimony as it gets under way. charles, donald trump was already a witness. what does the defense need to do? >> what you're going to see when don jr. it was is a much more complete narrative. they're going to allow don jr. to extrapolate his previous answers and add context to the answers he gave the attorney general's office he gave on the stand as an adversarial witness. when you're being questioned as a witness for the other party, those questions will be leading and narrow and nature. they're not going to allow a lot of room for expansion. what they're going to do is revisit any of his testimony that might have been hurtful or damaging on the stand and allow

him to add a much broader context. i expect that i also expect them to get into what their version of the facts are, what their version of the narrative is, that the ag's office would not allow him to do when he was on the stand as their witness. >> throughout the trial so far, the prosecution seems to have struggled to find witnesses that could testify that the former president directly ordered the value of his assets be inflated with the exception of michael cohen, and we know the history there. how big of a hole does this leave for the defense. >> it's a very big hole that the defense is about to capitalize on. it's important to remember that the defense is not only concerned just with the former president. it's the trump organization. while donald trump was the head of the trump organization, if you have officers or senior officials within your company who are doing things that are illegal or problematic, then the company is still going to be liable. the fact that donald trump himself may not necessarily have given those marching orders, if

he or others who are officials and officers of that organization had knowledge and they are defendants, then you still have the same problem to deal with. while it's not necessarily the greatest nups for the ag's office, it's important to understand that the other officials who are on the stand or being tried in this case also bear some sort of responsibility. and also, ana, let's not forget, the judge has already ruled on the question of liability itself. this is just the penalty phase to decide what the punishment will be. >> looking ahead now to the federal election interference case, listen to what trump said over the weekend about potential cameras in the courtroom. >> they said, sir, do you want a trial with or without cameras? most people would say without. i say the opposite. i want this trial to be seen by everybody in the world. [ cheers and applause ]

the prosecution wishes to continue this travesty in darkness, and i want sunlight. that's a nice way of saying that. isn't that pretty? i want sunlight. i want everything exposed to the public. let's let the public decide because i want cameras in every inch of that courthouse. >> as a journalist, we certainly would love to have cameras in the courtroom as well to provide that sunlight for the american public. nbc news and several other media outlets have been requesting cameras as well. what are the odds this request goes anywhere given it's a federal court. now you have the defendant saying he'd be okay with it. >> ana, i don't expect it to happen. you're looking at the case of new york as any type of indicator as to what a circus-like atmosphere donald trump in court can create, amplify that by about 50 when you think about what it would be

at the federal level. i don't know any federal judge who would be eager to entertain that. in terms of being able to grand donald trump a fair trial and grant the united states government a fair trial, having cameras in the courtroom significantly complicates that because what we know from donald trump is he's going to take every opportunity to make this about him, and in the sense of making it a show as opposed to a trial. this is not something that i see being very likely. >> i hear you. then again, you can argue at least then the public can judge for themselves what happens inside, instead of relying on different outlets for their information, one of those outlets being trump himself who can certainly spin what takes place. thank you so much as always, charles coleman. lots to discuss every day with many trump trials. appreciate you. >> than, ana. an intense scene last night in washington. e secret service says one of

the agents protecting the president's granddaughter fired their gun. thegents encountered three people breaking inside a vehicle out side the president granddaughter's home. one of the agents discharged their service weapon. it's believed no one was struck and the offenders immediate li fled the scene. the secret service says there was no threat to any protectees. they said they don't believe the president's granddaughter witnessed any of the incident. another one bites the dust. tim scott drops his white house bid. what failed to resonate? the candidate or the message. deportation raids, mass firings, tariffs. a seize we just got from donald trump. just got from donald trump.

still standing will pick up his support. with less than a year left in the 2024 race for the white house and donald trump still leading, nbc's dasha burns joins us now along with form are democratic congressman gus rose and former democratic congressman david jolly. >> what with relearning about this decision and how it might shake up the race? >> we know it was sudden. it came to a surprise to even the majority of his staff, who many tell nbc news they learned about this decision from that interview you just played there. they weren't expecting this. we kind of had the feeling, anybody who has been watching this race play out. you saw him sliding in the polls, that this was likely going to come eventually. but the timing of it, the sort of suddenness of it did come as a surprise to a lot of the staff. we know last night he held an

all-staff call for about ten minutes acknowledging this was a lot of a band-aid for a lot of the team, that they weren't in the know, but he wanted to make this as a strategic decision, wanted to go out on his own terms. he sort of echoed what he said in the interview there that he sort of felt the message from the voters. we're not likely, according to sources who spoke with our colleagues ali vitali, we're not likely to see an endorsement from him any time soon. he, again, wants to let voters dig into the candidates on their own. he's at 7% in our latest iowa pollment we'll be watching to see where that number goes, because it is tight right now between desantis and haley fighting for the number two spot, with trump still well ahead. >> even if all that 7% were to go to one person, that still leaves a huge gap between that

second-place person and donald trump. congressman jolly, scott tried to run a campaign of optimism, but said as he decided to exit the race, and i quote, sometimes optimism in the midst of chaos isn't seen through the proper prism. was the problem here the candidate or the message? >> probably both. from tim scott's kickoff, he really was changing this aspirational old school republican quality. it just simply wasn't resonating and wasn't working. this race for a long time has been focused on three people. it's donald trump's race. nothing realistically have changed that. you have nikki haley and ron desantis who are challenging each other to be the bridesmaid. desantis' fortunes are falling, haley coming up. haley in the national polling is becoming the alternative to donald trump. desantis is betting all things on iowa. where do tim scott supporters

go? i think they go to donald trump. most of the polling shows if you're with haley, desantis or scott, you're okay with trump as your second pick. i'd be surprised if scott endorses anybody. >> congressman rose, your take on a message of optimism, not protecting with the voters? >> poor guy. tim scott began this campaign with tremendous promise, over $25 million cash on hand, donors incredibly excited about him. the truth of the matter is he was 40 years too late. the reaganesque message, the republican base wants nothing to do with that. their politics right now is extraordinarily centered around grievance, centered around constantly trying to fight the establishment, and there is a significant element of it that is extremist in nature. that is why trumpian politics is what is reigning supreme amongst

that base. that's not going to go away any time sooner. that's why it's especially important that the biden campaign establishes a clear juxtaposition as soon as possible. tim scott was so unpopular amongst the base, none of the other candidates even criticized him. that's how you know you're really in trouble, he was ignored completely. >> trump was hitting haley, hitting ron desantis, chris christie, et cetera. contrasted with the message of optimism you have, the republican front-runner, congressman jolly, donald trump, in a veteran's day post on truth social calling his political enemies, quote, vermin. comments that "the washington post" points out echo dictators like hitler and mussolini. your reaction. >> i'd say during the same week where he suggested rounding up immigrants and having the

largest mass deportation we've seen in a hundred years, and coming in a month when he says immigrants poison the blood of our country. i think there is reason for people to believe that much of donald trump's beliefs are rooted in racism. people can make their own judgment on that. it's hard to say immigrants poison the blood and not assign that to him. what does that mean in terms of what he would do to his political adversaries. if he calls them vermin, i think it's realistic to say that donald trump would like to have an enemy's list. he's made clear he wants to seek retribution. he said this race is about retribution. we should accept the danger he's articulating for what it is, a dangerous inflection point in american politics and american culture. should he win, there's reason to fear what he will do. >> dasha, trump's campaign is responding to the criticism, the backlash it's gotten from this. what are hey saying? >> they are saying those who try to make this ridiculous assertion, that this line echoes hitler their sad miserable

existence will be crushed when president trump returns to the white house. they're saying they're snowflakes grasping for anything because they're suffering from trump derangement syndrome. of course they're going to push back on this. we see this time and again. trump wants to stir the pot with this language. he, in fact, knows that we are going to grab onto this, we're going to be talking about this. this is what makes him so difficult to cover. of course, we have to address this at the same time. this is how he plays the game. >> you're a veteran. he's talked about the enemy within and rooting out vermin. >> sure. as maya angelou said, when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time. for veterans across the nation, it's so clear that this is who he is because just look at how he's talked about veterans.

look at how he's talked about the fallen, said they were pitiful, i don't understand why they couldn't be doing something else. i don't want injured veterans anywhere near my presence because i don't think they're strong enough and it doesn't make me look good. he is a draft dodger. this is a characteristic of him from the very beginning of his adult life. he has no respect for service, none whatsoever. the fact he would say something like that on veterans day when we as a nation solemnly recognize not just the service of those amongst us, but another day where we recognize the fallen, those who made the greatest sacrifice. the fact that he would do this yet again is so disqualifying, and it's absolutely essential that the biden campaign makes sure that as many people are aware that this is the character of the man running for praets.

with just four days until a potential government shutdown, house republicans have unveiled a proposed plan to keep the government open. speaker mike johnson has offered

a two-step continuing resolution, a cr, that some members of his party and some democrats are rejecting. if it doesn't pass, there are growing concerns about a government shutdown on air travel, including significant delays and longer wait times at airports across the country over what will be a busy thanksgiving holiday season. we're covering all the angles with nbc capitol hill correspondent ali vitali and senior policy reporter shannon pettypiece. ali, let's start with you. tell us about this two-step plan unveiled by house republicans over the weekend. what does it look like and what are the chances something like this could pass by friday? >> reporter: we're once again in the posture on capitol hill where it's unlikely the government shuts down, but it's unclear how that doesn't happen at this point. house republicans are put together their own plan, what they're calling a lattered continuing resolution, more a

step stool than a ladder. there's only two steps to it. you see on your screen, january 19th is the first deadline of spending bills to keep the government running. february 2nd is the remaining bills to keep the government funded. what this process does is it adds urgency to the process to fund the government. it also, at least in the hopes of speaker johnson, a clean continuing res lugszs, but those same people who this plan was meant to placate have voiced their opposition to it already, just in the last day or so since the plan has been released. people like congressman chip roy says this is still in his words a 100% clean cr which is to say no budget cuts. it's exactly what kevin mccarthy did just about a month and a half ago. the thing that triggered him being ousted from his job, thus putting speaker johnson in the place he's in right now.

there's a lot of different dynamics that house republicans are continuing to try to balance. it's unclear if this approach will get them to avoid a government shutdown, but certainly one they'll try. >> sounds complicated as they always are in washington. shannon, let's talk about the potential impact then of a government shutdown, especially given thanksgiving is already next week. tsa would be impacted. what are some of the issues americans can face at airports as they head out for their thanksgiving travel? >> well, this shutdown is set to begin right as this holiday travel rush is coming. the tsa is anticipating there's going to be a record number of people traveling this holiday season which means tsa workers, air traffic controllers will all be working overtime, working through the holidays, missing time with their families. now if there's a government shutdown, they won't be getting paid. they will still be required to show up to work, but as we have seen in past shutdowns,

typically absenteeism does go up if workers aren't getting paid. sometimes it's if they can't afford the child care or transportation costs to get to work. in other cases, people have had to take second jobs. i spoke to one tsa security officer and union representative about the impact this could have. here is what he had to say. >> if we're going to be a shutdown, it's going to be ugly. i'm very concerned about the mental state of the employees and how long they're willing to endure this government shutdown. like i said, probably the number one thing they're thinking about is that next paycheck. >> reporter: and this is certainly something that policymakers in washington are aware of. it's a concern by the biden administration. here is what the top tsa administrator had to say about what he thinks could happen if we see a shutdown. >> we in tsa are an essential

agency. about 95% of our employees will work irregardless of a shutdown. the longer a shutdown goes, the more impact it has because your family cash flow isn't there. you don't get paid until the shutdown is over. >> reporter: during the last shutdown that ended in 2019, it was 35 days long, a key moment that really broke the stalemate in washington is when an increased number of air traffic controllers called in sick, flight delays went up and a few hours later and washington reached a deal to reopen the government. >> took that pressure from the public largely to say this isn't okay. ali vitali and shannon pettypiece, thank you very much. up next, how tensions from the israel-hamas war are boiling over here at home, from security threats to heated standoffs at protests. a tiny town in iceland facing nature's wrath as a looming volcanic eruption threatens rivers of lava. threatens rivers of lava our sty.

(vo) tepezza is the only medicine that treats t.e.d. at the source not just the symptoms. in a clinical study more than 8 out of 10 patients taking tepezza had less eye bulging. tepezza is an infusion and may cause infusion reactions. tell your doctor right away if you experience high blood pressure, fast heartbeat, shortness of breath or muscle pain. before treatment, tell your doctor if you have diabetes, ibd, or are pregnant, or planning to become pregnant. tepezza may raise blood sugar and may worsen ibd. tepezza may cause severe hearing problems which may be permanent. (bridget) now, i'm ready to be seen again. (vo) visit mytepezza.com to find a ted eye specialist and to see bridget's before and after photos.
