2:25 2:28 waging that war the US is pushing for a
2:28 2:30 temporary humanitarian cause to allow
2:30 2:33 for the distribution of Aid in Gaza the
2:33 2:35 US says thousands of Palestinian
2:35 2:37 civilians have died in the nearly
2:37 2:40 month-long War today Netanyahu rejected
2:40 2:42 any ceasefire that doesn't include the
2:42 2:46 release of hostages blinken seen here
2:46 2:48 leaving Israel for Jordan is under
2:48 2:50 intensifying pressure to broker a

2:55 2:58 drone flights over Gaza in an effort to
2:58 3:01 help locate the roughly 240 hostages
3:01 3:04 held by Hamas today an Israeli air
3:04 3:07 strike hit a convoy of ambulances which
3:07 3:09 Israel says Hamas uses to transport
3:09 3:12 terrorists and weapons the strike killed
3:12 3:15 dozens of people we have Team coverage
3:15 3:17 tonight and cbs's Charlie Daga will
3:17 3:19 start us off from near Israel's northern

3:25 3:27 Charlie good evening Margaret yes we're
3:27 3:29 close to the border with Lebanon which
3:29 3:32 was just under 2 miles in that direction
3:32 3:34 uh this area and the area behind me has
3:34 3:36 come under repeated attacks this week
3:36 3:38 and we've heard a couple of explosions
3:38 3:40 tonight on the day the Secretary of
3:40 3:42 State warned Regional enemies not to
3:42 3:45 open up a second front and a warning our
3:45 3:51 story contains images some might find
3:51 3:54 disturbing with the war in Gaza raging
3:54 3:56 and Israeli forces tightening their grip
3:56 4:00 on Gaza City less than 50 miles away
4:00 4:01 the Secretary of State returned to Tel
4:01 4:04 Aviv in part to persuade leaders here to
4:04 4:07 allow for a humanitarian pause we need
4:07 4:10 to do more to protect Palestinian
4:10 4:12 civilians we've been clear that as
4:12 4:14 Israel conducts his campaign to defeat
4:14 4:17 Hamas how it does so matters but prime
4:17 4:20 minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he has
4:20 4:24 no intention of pausing that
4:24 4:26 campaign I made clear that we will
4:26 4:28 continue full force and that Israel
4:28 4:31 refuses any temporary ceasefire which
4:31 4:33 does not include the release of our
4:33 4:36 hostages he said but both men were
4:36 4:38 United in warning Israel's
4:38 4:40 iranian-backed Regional enemies from
4:40 4:43 widening the war beyond the battlefields
4:43 4:46 of Gaza yet Northern Israel has seen a
4:46 4:49 sharp escalation in violence with
4:49 4:52 Lebanon this week a rocket attack On the
4:52 4:54 Border Town of kirat Shimona last night

4:59 5:02 Hezbollah controlled areas of Lebanon
5:02 5:05 claim responsibility for the barrage and
5:05 5:07 this is the aftermath it's just a row of
5:07 5:11 shops on a random residential street a
5:11 5:13 couple of people were injured but it
5:13 5:15 doesn't matter what the target was when
5:15 5:18 the aim is to spread
5:18 5:21 fear in his first comment since the War
5:21 5:24 Began the leader of Hezbollah Hassan NOA
5:24 5:26 said his group has already been battling
5:26 5:30 Israeli forces in the North in order to
5:30 5:32 stretch them thin in Gaza but stopped
5:32 5:35 short of declaring an allout
5:35 5:39 War inside Gaza itself today the Israeli
5:39 5:41 military released new video showing the
5:41 5:44 firefights and Street battles underway

6:05 6:07 command center but images show a number
6:07 6:10 of civilians among the victims adding to
6:10 6:13 a death toll that continues to mount by
6:13 6:15 the

12:45 12:47 to understand us attorney for the
12:47 12:49 southern district of New York said this
12:49 12:52 case is a warning to every single
12:52 12:54 fraudster out there who thinks that
12:54 12:55 they're
12:55 12:58 Untouchable or that their crimes are too
12:58 13:00 complex for us to catch those folks
13:00 13:02 should think again I promise we'll have
13:02 13:04 enough handcuffs for all of

13:46 13:48 town still reeling from the massacre N9
13:48 13:52 days ago as we mourn today in Maine this
13:52 13:56 tragedy opens a painful painful wounds
13:56 13:58 all across the country it's the
13:58 14:00 president 's fourth visit to a community
14:00 14:02 upended by a mass shooting in the last
14:02 14:06 18 months Buffalo Uvalde Monterey Park
14:06 14:08 and after each one the president called
14:08 14:10 for a new federal ban on assault style
14:10 14:14 weapons and each time nothing happened
14:14 14:16 injuries are devastating Dr Tim Kahan
14:16 14:18 treated many of the victims at Central

14:30 14:33 whose father Keith was killed at the bar
14:33 14:35 said stricter gun laws are not the
14:35 14:37 answer can't blame the item that was
14:37 14:40 used for the person's problems the
14:40 14:42 person was the problem in this because
14:42 14:46 of what they used to destroy lives
14:46 14:47 Main's Governor is establishing an
14:47 14:49 independent commission to explore why
14:49 14:51 particular red flags about the shooter
14:51 14:53 prior to the Rampage weren't pursued and
14:53 14:55 never reported to the FBI's threat

15:01 15:03 follow-up report will bring little
15:03 15:04 Comfort there's nothing that's going to
15:04 15:07 bring my dad back worrying about the
15:07 15:09 possibility of what could have
15:09 15:12 been tonight the main medical examiner's
15:12 15:14 office says that the shooter died of a
15:14 15:17 self-inflicted gunshot wound that likely
15:17 15:19 happened 8 to 12 hours before his body
15:19 15:20 was discovered that would mean that he
15:20 15:23 was alive and on the run for about 36
15:23 15:25 hours after the shootings while much of
15:25 15:27 this community was Sheltering in place

15:44 15:47 major Banks including Chase Wells Fargo
15:47 15:49 and Bank of America from reaching
15:49 15:52 accounts the Federal Reserve says it was

2:17 2:20 campaign against the terror group Hamas
2:20 2:22 while also urging prime minister
2:22 2:25 Benjamin Netanyahu to be careful while
2:25 2:28 waging that war the US is pushing for a
2:28 2:30 temporary humanitarian cause to allow
2:30 2:33 for the distribution of Aid in Gaza the
2:33 2:35 US says thousands of Palestinian
2:35 2:37 civilians have died in the nearly
2:37 2:40 month-long War today Netanyahu rejected
2:40 2:42 any ceasefire that doesn't include the
2:42 2:46 release of hostages blinken seen here
2:46 2:48 leaving Israel for Jordan is under
2:48 2:50 intensifying pressure to broker a
2:50 2:53 solution meanwhile the Pentagon
2:53 2:55 confirmed that it is conducting unarmed
2:55 2:58 drone flights over Gaza in an effort to
2:58 3:01 help locate the roughly 240 hostages
3:01 3:04 held by Hamas today an Israeli air
3:04 3:07 strike hit a convoy of ambulances which
3:07 3:09 Israel says Hamas uses to transport
3:09 3:12 terrorists and weapons the strike killed
3:12 3:15 dozens of people we have Team coverage
3:15 3:17 tonight and cbs's Charlie Daga will
3:17 3:19 start us off from near Israel's northern

3:22 3:25 evening
3:25 3:27 Charlie good evening Margaret yes we're
3:27 3:29 close to the border with Lebanon which
3:29 3:32 was just under 2 miles in that direction
3:32 3:34 uh this area and the area behind me has
3:34 3:36 come under repeated attacks this week
3:36 3:38 and we've heard a couple of explosions
3:38 3:40 tonight on the day the Secretary of
3:40 3:42 State warned Regional enemies not to
3:42 3:45 open up a second front and a warning our
3:45 3:51 story contains images some might find
3:51 3:54 disturbing with the war in Gaza raging
3:54 3:56 and Israeli forces tightening their grip
3:56 4:00 on Gaza City less than 50 miles away
4:00 4:01 the Secretary of State returned to Tel
4:01 4:04 Aviv in part to persuade leaders here to
4:04 4:07 allow for a humanitarian pause we need
4:07 4:10 to do more to protect Palestinian
4:10 4:12 civilians we've been clear that as
4:12 4:14 Israel conducts his campaign to defeat
4:14 4:17 Hamas how it does so matters but prime
4:17 4:20 minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he has
4:20 4:24 no intention of pausing that
4:24 4:26 campaign I made clear that we will
4:26 4:28 continue full force and that Israel
4:28 4:31 refuses any temporary ceasefire which
4:31 4:33 does not include the release of our
4:33 4:36 hostages he said but both men were
4:36 4:38 United in warning Israel's
4:38 4:40 iranian-backed Regional enemies from
4:40 4:43 widening the war beyond the battlefields
4:43 4:46 of Gaza yet Northern Israel has seen a
4:46 4:49 sharp escalation in violence with
4:49 4:52 Lebanon this week a rocket attack On the
4:52 4:54 Border Town of kirat Shimona last night
4:54 4:57 set cars and buildings of Blaze Hamas
4:57 4:59 militants who have a presence in in
4:59 5:02 Hezbollah controlled areas of Lebanon
5:02 5:05 claim responsibility for the barrage and
5:05 5:07 this is the aftermath it's just a row of
5:07 5:11 shops on a random residential street a
5:11 5:13 couple of people were injured but it
5:13 5:15 doesn't matter what the target was when
5:15 5:18 the aim is to spread
5:18 5:21 fear in his first comment since the War
5:21 5:24 Began the leader of Hezbollah Hassan NOA
5:24 5:26 said his group has already been battling
5:26 5:30 Israeli forces in the North in order to
5:30 5:32 stretch them thin in Gaza but stopped
5:32 5:35 short of declaring an allout
5:35 5:39 War inside Gaza itself today the Israeli
5:39 5:41 military released new video showing the
5:41 5:44 firefights and Street battles underway
5:44 5:47 with Hamas militants as soldiers

5:56 5:59 a convoy of ambulances outside the the
5:59 6:02 alifa hospital in Gaza City Israel has
6:02 6:05 accused Hamas of using the grounds as a
6:05 6:07 command center but images show a number
6:07 6:10 of civilians among the victims adding to
6:10 6:13 a death toll that continues to mount by
6:13 6:15 the
6:15 6:19 day and we are learning from a briefing
6:19 6:20 tonight by the Israeli military that one
6:20 6:23 of its aircraft did strike an ambulance

12:37 12:40 as an example of those who quote try to
12:40 12:42 hide crimes behind a shiny new thing

12:45 12:47 to understand us attorney for the
12:47 12:49 southern district of New York said this
12:49 12:52 case is a warning to every single
12:52 12:54 fraudster out there who thinks that
12:54 12:55 they're
12:55 12:58 Untouchable or that their crimes are too
12:58 13:00 complex for us to catch those folks
13:00 13:02 should think again I promise we'll have
13:02 13:04 enough handcuffs for all of
13:04 13:07 them now the US government says it
13:07 13:09 intends to bring even more charges

13:46 13:48 town still reeling from the massacre N9
13:48 13:52 days ago as we mourn today in Maine this
13:52 13:56 tragedy opens a painful painful wounds
13:56 13:58 all across the country it's the
13:58 14:00 president 's fourth visit to a community
14:00 14:02 upended by a mass shooting in the last
14:02 14:06 18 months Buffalo Uvalde Monterey Park
14:06 14:08 and after each one the president called

14:10 14:14 weapons and each time nothing happened
14:14 14:16 injuries are devastating Dr Tim Kahan

14:30 14:33 whose father Keith was killed at the bar
14:33 14:35 said stricter gun laws are not the
14:35 14:37 answer can't blame the item that was
14:37 14:40 used for the person's problems the
14:40 14:42 person was the problem in this because
14:42 14:46 of what they used to destroy lives
14:46 14:47 Main's Governor is establishing an
14:47 14:49 independent commission to explore why
14:49 14:51 particular red flags about the shooter
14:51 14:53 prior to the Rampage weren't pursued and
14:53 14:55 never reported to the FBI's threat

15:01 15:03 follow-up report will bring little
15:03 15:04 Comfort there's nothing that's going to
15:04 15:07 bring my dad back worrying about the
15:07 15:09 possibility of what could have
15:09 15:12 been tonight the main medical examiner's
15:12 15:14 office says that the shooter died of a
15:14 15:17 self-inflicted gunshot wound that likely
15:17 15:19 happened 8 to 12 hours before his body
15:19 15:20 was discovered that would mean that he
15:20 15:23 was alive and on the run for about 36
15:23 15:25 hours after the shootings while much of
15:25 15:27 this community was Sheltering in place

16:20 16:23 straight A's in
16:23 16:25 imagination you may walk through recess
16:25 16:27 at the Trinity Leadership School near
16:27 16:30 Dallas Sonia White's first graders are
16:30 16:32 still flying high come all the way back
16:32 16:35 and walk still reliving their amazing
16:35 16:38 one-day Field Trip South of the Border
16:38 16:41 where are you going Mexico to Mexico I
16:41 16:43 love your outfit it was my first time on
16:43 16:47 a plane we went inside of a cloud I saw
16:47 16:50 the ocean is that your first time seeing
16:50 16:52 the ocean mhm at this point you've got
16:52 16:54 to be wondering how could a school
16:54 16:57 afford this what kind of teacher does it
16:57 16:59 take to fly a class of first graders to
16:59 17:01 Mexico for a
17:01 17:05 day a very clever one so just to be
17:05 17:07 clear you did not go to Mexico we did
17:07 17:10 not you did not get on a plane we did
17:10 17:13 not you never left the class we did
17:13 17:15 not what you're about to see as a
17:15 17:18 testament to the power of imagination
17:18 17:20 and the magic teachers have to harness
17:20 17:23 it okay let's find out who after Sonia's
17:23 17:24 students told her their one wish was to
17:24 17:27 fly on a plane she went Full Throttle on
17:27 17:29 the pretense um boarding pass and your
17:29 17:32 passport Place created travel documents
17:32 17:35 for each child and then boarded them on
17:35 17:37 their flight to Mexico okay guys we are
17:37 17:40 now at 13,000 ft you may take out a
17:40 17:44 snack we had a little turbance boy did
17:44 17:47 not scare me but my friend Lorenzo had a
17:47 17:49 rough Landing really what happened to
17:49 17:50 him he was
17:50 17:54 like the Buy in really was
17:54 17:56 remarkable one of my students saw
17:56 17:58 somebody that night and they said what
17:58 17:59 are you you doing here I thought you
17:59 18:00 were in Mexico and he said yeah we were
18:00 18:02 we got back at 3: and that's when I was
18:02 18:05 like they really think we went to Mexico
18:05 18:07 I'm riding you from Mexico teachers
18:07 18:10 everywhere could use more resources but
18:10 18:12 the best always seem to figure out a way
18:12 18:15 to take kids places often without so
18:15 18:19 much as a bus ride did this fuel your
18:19 18:22 desire for More Travel yes do you know
18:22 18:24 North Korea yeah
18:24 18:27 sure probably I do not want to go to
