you can see the smoke plumes behind you. anna. >> reporter: john, we are close by in the township of hasam sham. the isis strong hold. this has been a ground offensive to clear out the villages. you say the smoke behind me has been rising for hours now. big black plumes of smoke along the horizon. our cameraman sanjiv will give you the idea of how far the fighting reached. this offense started before dawn. peshmerga pushing and trying to clear those villages. the mission here is to seize an area where there was a bridge blown up by isis about a month ago. it is a strategic bridge because of the link between erbil and

the city of mosul. this will be the next phase of the operation. the battle for mosul. the plan is for peshmerga to take control of the area and rebuild the bridge for the thoroughway all the way to mosul. you can say the air strikes, the military jets have been circling for hours now and have been launching air strikes. it is making a huge difference on the ground as you can imagine to the forces here. giving them the air cover, but taking out enemy positions that isis vehicles and convoys traveling throughout the plains. it really is making a difference. we spoken to the kurdish president yesterday. we sat down with him. he welcomes president obama's strategy to destroy isis. they need an intensification of the air strikes and jets circling. john, it is active campaign.

>> it seems to be a coordinated effort with peshmerga on the ground and u.s. air strikes in support of that. while this is going on, anna, the united states military tells us a new phase in the battle of isis in baghdad. the air strikes south of baghdad also going on offense against isis. >> reporter: yes, that's right. that news overnight that there were the air strikes south of baghdad. certainly seeing an escalation of the campaign. we heard it from the president when he outlined his strategy last week. this systematic campaign that we are going to be seeing here in iraq. that means an intensification of air strikes. not just going to be focused on looking at the u.s. personnel or humanitarian issues here in the country. it is now about hunting down isis and killing the enemy and taking out the targets so the ground forces, peshmerga and the iraqi security forces, who are

the boots on the ground. you have to remember, there are no foreign troops on the ground in iraq at the moment. we spoke to the president yesterday and he said he would welcome foreign troops here to help his forces. they are the ones on the ground taking the fight to isis. they need the air support. jets flying over us as we are speaking, john. extremely fluid. they are constantly surveying what is going on. they have the eyes on isis which is making it so much harder for them to move from town to town. >> literally looking at what could be the next phase in the fight against isis in iraq. right behind anna coren. thank you. one question up in the air this morning is the coalition against isis comes together. which nations are committing to what? on monday, france joined britain over air campaigns.

and two countries, iran and syria, were not invited to the conference on isis. cnn's michelle kosinski has more from the white house. >> reporter: john and christine, the white house is talking about the fight, the war now against isis is building international coalition. what will that look like? which country will do what militarily? the administration is holding its cards close. there has still been mixed messages out there on who has made an offer. whom will the u.s. work with and whom will it not? for now, the white house isn't answering questions on specifics. even what other countries are willing to conduct air strikes. they say there is still coordination to decide what will be needed from whom and when. secretary of state kerry traveling through the region and europe has acknowledged that there are real offers out there. some are from arab countries and he says some of the offers include not only air strikes, but troops on the ground. other countries, iraq said that

france is willing to conduct air strikes. the white house has made clear whom it will not work with at this point. it says syria and iran. however, we know there have been back channel discussions with iran on the subject. tehran said it rejects an offer to work with the u.s. on this. if there hasn't been coordination, where did that supposed offer come from? just this month, cnn's christiane amanpour learned that iranian missions worked with the u.s. inside iraq to help with a siege on the ethnic minority on a particular city there. the white house is not commenting further. the u.s. will fight something of a battle at least against isis within the united states. the attorney general announced the initiative to target radicalism and extremist recruitment inside american communities. john and christine.

talking about football, but football players' behavior. >> khou is reporting that adrian peterson indicted on child abuse charges, was accused in a second incident with another son who was 4 years old. khou cited text messages with a photo of the son with a head wound covered by bandages. the attorney says the allegations were unfounded and more than a year old. general manager rick spielman spoke about the decision of the reinstatement. >> this is a difficult path to navigate regarding the judgment of how a parent disciplines his child. based on the extensive information we have right now and what we know about adrian not only as a person, but what he has also done for this community, we believe he deserves to play while the legal process plays out. >> peterson did not talk to the

media, but released a statement. i have to live with the fact i disciplined my son the way i was disciplined as a child, i caused an injury that i thought would never happen. i love my son and i will continue to become a better parents and learn from mistakes i make. greg hardy is practicing with the carolina panthers. hardy was convicted the domestic violence. he played in week one, but benched in week two. the head coach ron rivera is undecided if hardy will play this weekend. >> i'm concerned about it. it is a distraction. that is why i made the decision. if you play him and you win, then you don't have a conscious. you play him and you lose, he is a distractio so, decision was made in the best interest of the organization. >> former baltimore ravens running back ray rice is expected to appeal his indefinite suspension from the nfl later today. he has until 11:59 eastern time

a new phase in the battle

against isis on offense. u.s. air strikes targeting terrorists near baghdad for the first time. we are live with the latest this morning. ebola epidemic. president obama's strategy to stop the virus from spreading. that includes thousands of troops and hundreds of millions of dollars. the violence in the nfl as reports of new allegations surface this morning. good morning. welcome to "early start." i'm john berman. >> i'm christine romans. the u.s. air strikes are launching close to baghdad for the first time. the previous strikes hit terrorists in the northern part of the country. this is air strikes in erbil. the u.s. command calls this the first strike in the expanded effort to help iraqi forces go on offensive.

our correspondent jomana karadsheh has the latest on the air strikes. the first in the expanded effort. we have seen these before, but you can see the u.s. taking a bill role here. >> reporter: absolutely. christine, what we understand from u.s. officials is this air strike took place about 22 miles southwest of baghdad. this was not the start of any major offensive here or eminent threat or advance to the iraqi capital, but it was iraqi security forces in the area coming under attack from isis and that is where the u.s. military strike came in. targeting an isis location that was the source of the threat to the iraqi security forces. now, we are waiting to hear from the ministry of defense for more information about what was going on when the u.s. air strikes took place. one senior official telling us that this was in the vicinity of

the town of yosevef. you will recall in the days of the height of the insurgency here, it was one of three towns made up of what was known as the triangle of death. this is on the southern baghdad belt. the area has been of concern. we have seen continuing fighting between iraqi security forces and these isis militants going on for a couple of months now. in recent weeks, intensification of the iraqi security forces there. this air strike is not only a geographical expansion and broadening area of operations for the u.s. air campaign, but also a real expansion of the mission here as we heard president obama say last week that there will be more air strikes expanding the mission not only to protect the u.s. facilities and personnel here or humanitarian intervention, but more u.s. air strikes to allow

iraqi security forbces to go on the offensive. this is what the iraqi forces have been lacking in the battle against isis. >> thanks, jomana. >> one question in the air as the coalition against isis comes together is which nations are committing to what. on monday, france joined britain in the air reconnaissance. they have not committed to any combat role or air strikes. two countries, iran and syria, were not invited to the monday conference about the fight against isis. cnn's michelle kosinski has more from the white house. >> reporter: john and christine, the white house is talking about the fight, the war now against isis, is all about building international coalition. what is that? which country will do what militarily? for now, the administration is holding its cards close. there has still been mixed messaging out there on who made

an offer. whom will the u.s. work with and whom will it not? for now, the white house isn't answering questions on specifics. even what other countries are willing to conduct air strikes. they say there is still coordination to be done to decide what is needed for whom and when. secretary of state kerry traveling through the region and europe has acknowledged that there are real offers out there. some are from arab countries and he says some of the offers include not only air strikes, but troops on the ground. other countries, iraq said that france is willing to conduct air strikes. the white house has made clear whom it will not work with at this point. it says syria and iran. however, we know there have been back channel discussions with iran on the subject. tehran said it rejects an offer to work with the u.s. on this. if there hasn't been coordination, where did that supposed offer come from? just this month, iraq's

president told cnn's christiane amanpour that iranian militias worked with the u.s. inside iraq to help end the siege on an ethnic minority in a particular city. the white house isn't commenting further. something else we know, the u.s. will fight a battle against isis within the united states. the attorney general announced the initiative to target radicalism and recruitment inside american communities. john and christine. >> thanks, michelle kosinski. the latest word on alan henning not encouraging. officials said intelligence from the united kingdom said they do not know where the british aid worker is being held. that would make any rescue operation nearly impossible. officials heading to capitol hill today. chuck hagel and martin dempsey will be grilled by the senate armed services committee on iraq and syria and the threat posed by the terror group.

the administration is seeking authority to train and arm moderate syrian rebels. >> we heard members of congress talk about how important this effort is and they should put their vote where their words are and hopefully we can get it done. holding this off until the mid-term elections, i think would set the effort back even further. >> the justice department launching a program to fight isis at home. under the plan, mental health and religious leaders and police will be enlisted to combat recruitment. opposition mounting in the united states against the president obama's plan. the rush that led to the war in iraq. the petition on moveon.org calling for the administration to hit the pause button and put more effort into non military actions to block the expansion of isis. so far, over 4,000 people have signed that petition. today, president obama will announce a new expanded effort

going on right now. indra petersons has the forecast. >> odile is out there. this morning, it has weakened to a tropical storm. look at the path. it is making its way into the desert southwest. if you recall about a week ago, all the flooding concerns out to arizona look at all of the moisture funneling into the region. flood advisories are up. the concern is we are talking about heavy showers over the next several days enhanced from the tropical storm and any place that saw the heavy rain cannot take anymore. that is something we will monitor. on the east coast, the line of storms making its way through. scattered showers making its way to the northeast. cool air behind it as well. also to the southeast, spotty showers from another stationary front keeping in place. by the end of the week, only reinforcing the cool air. if you enjoy fall, enjoy it longer. it will stay here with the cool air still holding on. you can look at the temperatures, 60s and 70s as highs. let's go out to the west coast. what a difference. you are talking about temperatures anywhere in the upper 80s.

this is toward the coast. you get in the valleys, you are talking about 90s and 100 degrees. you add in the tropical moisture. the air feeling like 105. thank you, indra. let's see what is coming up on "new day." chris has more. >> we are looking into the which troops we are talking about. we know breaking overnight. the first air strikes happen against isis outside of baghdad. the closest to the iraq capital. look at that. the picture seems to show the bombings are effective. what does that mean? we will take you through that in terms of how this shows the president's plan is working or not. there is a report out as i was telling you that in afghanistan, some troops have been killed in a bombing attack. we know they are nato troops. we are looking into that. we hope to get the information during the show.

we will talk about the nfl this morning. adrian peterson has been reinstated. expected back on the field amid child abuse charges. a new report which you may not know about which is that he abused another one of his kids who lives with another woman. it happened about a year ago. that raises the obvious question. should he be cleared to play? unless, the nfl. ray rice expected to appeal suspension by the nfl. some think that is controversial. remember, the nfl rule is six games. why indefinitely if the rule is six games? the developments are there. we will continue this culture conversation about whether or not john and christine, are we putting too much pressure on the nfl? i know it seems like they have not handled situations well. where are they? cops could not make a case. the law will give probation to

adrian peterson. who is doing the right thing? are we really pointing the finger at the nfl and maybe it needs to be back at everybody else. >> you look at the radisson hotel, you will have responspon who say we don't want our names associated. >> they will be back. the numbers are up. they will be back. >> they are sending a good message. i'm glad we're talking about it. i think we are not done talking about it. for sure. thanks, chris. nice to see you. he mentioned the problems with the nfl. this morning, they are taking steps to battle domestic violence. we are breaking it all down for you next. er ] at p grum we've always been at the forefront of advanced electronics. providing technology to get more detail... ♪ detect hidden threats... ♪ see the whole picture... ♪ process critical information,
