About this episode

Hurricane Milton whipped up deadly tornadoes, destroying homes and triggering flash floods and power outages in Florida. We head to Erie County – a historically must-win county in the battleground state of Pennsylvania and look at the candidates’ ground games there ahead of the U.S. election. And we talk to a Donetsk ranger about Ukraine’s devastated forests. Plus, Israel says it’s eliminated a Hezbollah member in Syria while Defense Minister Yoav Gallant threatens a hefty retaliation against Iran following Tehran’s missile attack last week.
