Dock workers from New England to Texas go on strike. Israeli troops move into Lebanon. Vice Presidential candidates face off tonight. CBS News Correspondent Steve Kathan has today's World News Roundup.
As Israeli troops move into Lebanon and missiles strike Damascus in Syria, can Israel’s next offensive really stay “limited, localised and targeted”? Japan’s new prime minister loves planes, trains and ramen, but with few allies within his own party, his premiership may attract less devotion (8:57). And the worst invention in modern office life: “the sandwich lunch” (15:24).
Israel says it has launched a "limited" ground operation into Southern Lebanon, launching a major escalation in its conflict with Hezbollah. Plus, what to listen for during tonight's vice presidential debate.
Today's episode of Up First was edited by Vincent Ni, Megan Pratz, Ally Schweitzer and Alice Woelfe. It was produced by Iman Maani, Paige Waterhouse, Nia Dumas and Ana Perez. We get engineering support from Stacey Abbott, and our technical director is Zac Coleman.
What to know about the dockworkers strike happening now and the impact it could have on consumers in the months ahead.
And, we'll tell you what to expect from tonight’s vice presidential debate, including a new way to fact-check the candidates in real-time.
Also, a major step toward a wider war in the Middle East as Israel sends ground troops into Lebanon.
Plus, the longest-living U.S. president marks his 100th birthday, the deal that could create the largest pay-TV service in America, and why people across the country couldn’t use their cell phones for hours.
Those stories and even more news to know in about 10 minutes!

Alliance Defending Freedom challenges a law banning abortion pill reversal, which would have prevented Mackenna Greene from saving her baby. When Mackenna Greene took the abortion pill to end the life of her unborn daughter, she immediately knew she had made the wrong choice. Greene said she googled her options and found Chelsea Mynyk, a nurse-midwife at the life-affirming Catholic medical center Bella Health and Wellness in Englewood, Colorado. Mynyk prescribes abortion pill reversal medication to women who regret starting a chemical abortion. "I'm the luckiest girl alive to be looking at this girl's face," Greene said. "And thank goodness that the reversal was successful."
