President Biden traveled to the Carolinas Wednesday to view the scope of the devastation firsthand from Hurricane Helene. At least 180 deaths have been attributed to the storm across six states. Skyler Henry reports from Asheville, North Carolina. After Iran fired nearly 200 missiles at Israel Tuesday --nearly all of them intercepted by Israel's missile defense systems and the help of U.S. destroyers based in the Eastern Mediterranean-- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu indicated that Israel will respond. The Israeli military also said Wednesday that eight of its soldiers were killed in fighting with Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. Chris Livesay reports from Tel Aviv, and Imtiaz Tyab reports from Beirut. A substantial court filing by special counsel Jack Smith in the 2020 election case against former President Donald Trump was unsealed by a federal judge Wednesday. In it, Smith argues that Trump "resorted to crimes" after losing the election to President Biden. The case had been thrown into doubt when the Supreme Court ruled in July that a president cannot be prosecuted for what it called official acts. Scott MacFarlane has details. Since 2014, at least 320 people have been shot and killed by police while holding replica guns, and of those at least 19 were children. Police say that many replica guns look so real that officers are unable to distinguish them from regular firearms. And even though many states are trying to keep realistic replica guns out of kids' hands, there's evidence that manufacturers have been marketing directly to them for years. Anna Werner explains. One day after they faced off in the vice presidential debate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz were back on the campaign trail Wednesday. A new CBS News poll found that viewers saw the debate as a pretty even matchup. Robert Costa has the latest.
