Richard Arnold: US correspondent on Hurricane Helene and Israel's assassination of Hezbollah leaders

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Een podcast door Newstalk ZB - Dinsdagen

Administrator of the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency Deanne Criswell has said she doesn’t believe anyone could be fully prepared for the amount of flooding that has been brought on by Hurricane Helene. In her assessment, Criswell stated the damage was a result of warm waters, which is a result of climate change. The storm was a category four hurricane and has been catastrophic across multiple states. US correspondent Richard Arnold tells Heather du Plessis-Allan close to 500 rescues have been performed, with people lifted off roofs of flooded buildings. Meanwhile, Israel has claimed to have killed 30 top leaders of Hezbollah. The US was not aware of plans to assassinate Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Richard Arnold says “there is no question that the Hezbollah of today is not the Hezbollah that was even just a week ago.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
