0:11 0:14 Gaza and the UN warns of a growing
0:14 0:18 humanitarian crisis here are tonight's
0:18 0:21 [Music]
0:21 0:24 headlines Israel hammers Gaza promising
0:24 0:28 to destroy Hamas Hamas is Isis and just
0:28 0:30 as Isis was crushed
0:30 0:33 so too will Kamas be crushed this is the
0:33 0:36 moment of impact recorded on this clock
0:36 0:38 just outside the director's office we
0:38 0:40 travel South near the Gaza border to
0:40 0:43 visit a hospital the Children's Center
0:43 0:45 there hit by a rocket we speak with
0:45 0:47 doctors and family members witnessing
0:47 0:51 the horrors of war and they kill him one
0:51 0:55 two s balls right in the head cbs's
0:55 0:57 Holly Williams visits the site of the
0:57 0:59 music festival Massacre where Hamas
0:59 1:03 killed over 250 people this is already
1:03 1:06 an incredibly Eerie place because on
1:06 1:08 Saturday it was filled with thousands of
1:08 1:10 young people who were here for a party
1:10 1:13 and as a result of that they were
1:13 1:15 slaughtered inside Gaza tonight was
1:15 1:17 civilians cut off from the world the
1:17 1:20 concerns of a humanitarian crisis grow I
1:20 1:22 think the whole medical sector and the
1:22 1:24 health department maybe will collaps
1:24 1:26 maybe in two or 3 days the US government
1:26 1:27 is working to get Americans out of
1:27 1:30 Israel but warns you will not be able to
1:30 1:32 choose your destination America's top
1:32 1:34 Diplomat meets with Israel's prime
1:34 1:37 minister survivors and families of
1:37 1:39 Americans held hostage what he told us
1:39 1:41 about whether there was an Israeli
1:41 1:43 intelligence failure tonight our CBS
1:43 1:47 reporting on the $6 billion Iranian fund
1:47 1:51 she danced with no many times and a
1:51 1:53 grieving father's dream to build the
1:53 1:57 future for our children we need to find
1:57 2:07 way to stop killing each other
2:07 2:08 good evening and thank you for joining
2:08 2:11 us from here in Tel Aviv on day six of
2:11 2:13 the war the main headline here is
2:13 2:15 Israel's bid to crush Hamas with the
2:15 2:18 near constant barrage of air strikes on
2:18 2:20 Gaza ahead of its expected ground
2:20 2:23 invasion in the coming days the
2:23 2:25 catastrophic damage in Gaza is leading
2:25 2:28 to a humanitarian crisis the United
2:28 2:30 Nations now warning that food and water
2:30 2:32 are quickly running out for the more
2:32 2:35 than 2 million Palestinians who are
2:35 2:38 trapped there more than 1200 people have
2:38 2:40 been killed in Israel and over 1500 in
2:40 2:43 Gaza the number of Americans killed is
2:43 2:46 now at 27 and there are 14 Americans
2:46 2:49 still missing and the horrors of War
2:49 2:51 keep getting worse we have a warning for
2:51 2:54 our viewers of a disturbing image
2:54 2:56 released by Israeli Prime Minister
2:56 2:59 Benjamin Netanyahu a baby he says was
2:59 3:01 killed killed by Hamas terrorists
3:01 3:04 Netanyahu met with Secretary of State
3:04 3:06 Anthony blinkin in Tel Aviv today while
3:06 3:08 the state department arranges charter
3:08 3:10 flights to help Americans leave Israel
3:10 3:13 starting tomorrow we sat down with
3:13 3:15 blinkin to hear America's plan to deal
3:15 3:18 with the ongoing crisis we also traveled
3:18 3:21 to a hospital near the Gaza border where
3:21 3:24 we witnessed the human cost of a Nation
3:24 3:26 at War but we do want to begin with
3:26 3:32 Israel's pledge tonight to destroy Hamas
3:32 3:34 six straight days of air assaults the
3:34 3:38 Israeli military dropping 6,000 bombs
3:38 3:41 since they began their counter strike on
3:41 3:43 Gaza while troops on the ground ready
3:43 3:46 for an invasion any day today the US
3:46 3:48 showing its support with Secretary of
3:48 3:50 State Anthony blinkin in Tel Aviv the
3:50 3:53 United States stands with Israel and
3:53 3:58 with its people today tomorrow every day
3:58 4:00 the secretary telling us this the state
4:00 4:02 department is now arranging flights to
4:02 4:04 evacuate Americans out of Israel there
4:04 4:05 are a lot of people who are here you
4:05 4:07 know for the holidays visiting family
4:07 4:09 visiting friends at any given time there
4:09 4:11 may be as many as a 100,000 Americans in
4:11 4:13 Israel who are visiting and eventually
4:13 4:15 want to go home the death toll Rising
4:15 4:18 the Grim task of recovering bodies
4:18 4:20 continues after Israeli intelligence
4:20 4:23 failed to thwart the attack I just
4:23 4:25 wonder because as one of the president's
4:25 4:28 closest advisers the Secretary of State
4:28 4:29 it has been suggested that Hamas is
4:29 4:32 communicating now in different ways that
4:32 4:33 cannot be picked up by even the best
4:33 4:36 intelligence is that something that
4:36 4:38 American intelligence is aware of
4:38 4:40 talking about so that Americans stay
4:40 4:44 safe we have an extraordinarily Vigilant
4:44 4:47 intelligence community that is working
4:47 4:50 every single minute of every single day
4:50 4:52 I think um as Israelis go back and and
4:52 4:56 look at what happened here um it may
4:56 5:00 well be not that they didn't didn't have
5:00 5:02 something but that they didn't interpret
5:02 5:06 it in um in what proved to be the the
5:06 5:07 right
5:07 5:10 way we drove South to the port city of
5:10 5:13 ashalon and a hospital inundated with
5:13 5:16 casualties just yesterday a rocket tore
5:16 5:18 through a children's center there this
5:18 5:21 is where the Missile hit yes right up
5:21 5:24 here Hospital official I let Israel told
5:24 5:27 us because they are just miles from Gaza
5:27 5:30 the children were evacuated days ago
5:30 5:32 this was really a miracle because
5:32 5:34 everything was on fire over here this is
5:34 5:37 the moment of impact recorded on this
5:37 5:40 clock just outside the director's office
5:40 5:42 he was here luckily because of the
5:42 5:45 sirens he was able to make it down into
5:45 5:48 the bomb shelter and was okay this is
5:48 5:50 the emergency room Dr Ron LEL has worked
5:50 5:55 here for 43 years how many injured came
5:55 5:57 here on Saturday within the first few
5:57 6:00 hours more than 200
6:00 6:02 injured arrived into the hospital can
6:02 6:06 you describe some of the injuries of
6:06 6:08 those that were brought here people came
6:08 6:12 in with with gunshot injuries um either
6:12 6:16 to their head their face the chest uh um
6:16 6:20 some came with uh 20 bullets Dr LEL saw
6:20 6:23 not only the horrors of Hamas in the
6:23 6:27 hospital but also at his home for about
6:27 6:31 uh 6 hours they totally controlled the
6:31 6:34 village moving from one house to another
6:34 6:36 slaughtering the people inside how did
6:36 6:39 you survive I don't know I don't have a
6:39 6:44 clue it was the most uh
6:44 6:47 frightening 102 hours of my life I'm not
6:47 6:51 equipped with the with the guns you're a
6:51 6:55 doctor yeah I'm a doctor and uh all I I
6:55 6:58 could do is close all the windows and
6:58 7:01 the doors and great among the patients
7:01 7:04 here two of Sabine tassa's Sons how are
7:04 7:08 they doing no good my little one shy
7:08 7:11 lost his eye cannot see he will be blind
7:11 7:15 with one eyes how old is he eight my
7:15 7:17 other child
7:17 7:22 receive many pieces of grenade in his
7:22 7:25 body Sabine told us in chilling detail
7:25 7:28 how one militant stormed her house she
7:28 7:30 says she will never for get his face he
7:30 7:32 came to me
7:32 7:36 and came to me to kill me he didn't kill
7:36 7:40 me why I don't know but they did kill
7:40 7:44 her husband Gil my husband was a fireman
7:44 7:49 he was a tough man they put the grenade
7:49 7:53 and then they killed him next to the
7:53 7:55 children your children saw that yeah
7:55 7:58 their father died yeah it only got worse
7:58 7:59 as she learned her oldest son
7:59 8:03 17-year-old or was murdered too he was
8:03 8:06 surfing when Hamas stormed zum beach by
8:06 8:09 sea I'm wondering what you think about
8:09 8:11 the amount of time it took for the
8:11 8:14 Israeli forces to respond I can't even
8:14 8:17 understand because when a bird hits the
8:17 8:20 fence there is an alarm we know about it
8:20 8:25 when a donkey uh touches the fence uh
8:25 8:28 the alarm is set when somebody get close
8:28 8:30 to the fence
8:30 8:32 there are automatic weapons that start
8:32 8:36 shooting nothing of that
8:36 8:39 happened and that is why so many people
8:39 8:42 are still confused about how their
8:42 8:44 country was caught by
8:44 8:47 surprise now across the border to Gaza
8:47 8:49 where innocent civilians who have
8:49 8:52 nothing to do with terrorism are trapped
8:52 8:55 with no way out cbs's MTS tyab reports
8:55 8:57 tonight on some of the youngest
8:57 9:00 casualties of War there a and a warning
9:00 9:03 some of the images are
9:03 9:06 disturbing across Gaza and its children
9:06 9:08 who are paying the ultimate price the
9:08 9:11 lifeless body of a baby girl is placed
9:11 9:13 next to her dead father in the middle of
9:13 9:16 the street at the main shipa hospital
9:16 9:19 tiny bodies covered in blood are treated
9:19 9:21 by exhausted doctors there are so many
9:21 9:24 casualties intensive care units are
9:24 9:26 overflowing and there's just 3 days of
9:26 9:29 fuel left other hospitals are already
9:29 9:32 ready out says Dr Muhammad M I think the
9:32 9:33 whole medical sector and the health
9:33 9:35 department maybe will collapse maybe in
9:35 9:37 two or 3 days over half the population
9:37 9:40 of Gaza is under the age of 18 just
9:40 9:43 children who had no say in hamas's
9:43 9:45 brutal assault on Southern Israel at
9:45 9:48 least 300,000 people are displaced many
9:48 9:51 Sheltering in schools 15-year-old
9:51 9:53 Muhammad Halas is now
9:53 9:55 homeless we're sleeping in a hospital
9:55 9:58 with non-stop bombing above us he says I
9:58 10:00 hope that the world looks at us with
10:00 10:04 some mercy this is Gaza tonight almost
10:04 10:07 complete
10:07 10:09 darkness despite some International
10:09 10:11 criticism prime minister Benjamin
10:11 10:13 Netanyahu has also ordered a complete
10:13 10:15 blockade of Gaza meaning Israel won't
10:15 10:18 allow in food fuel or water until
10:18 10:21 Israeli abductees are returned home but
10:21 10:24 Hamas says it refuses to negotiate their
10:24 10:27 release until Israel lifts its Siege
10:27 10:29 only amplifying the misery of the more
10:29 10:31 than 2 million people who live here
10:31 10:34 including around 600
10:34 10:37 Americans Israel has repeatedly targeted
10:37 10:40 gaza's Rua border crossing with Egypt as
10:40 10:42 the Egyptian government negotiates with
10:42 10:45 the US and Israel to let in fuel and
10:45 10:48 humanitarian
10:48 10:52 aid but Egypt is refusing to allow an
10:52 10:54 exodus of Palestinians into its
10:54 10:56 countries over fears Israel will try to
10:56 10:59 prevent them from ever returning to the
10:59 11:01 Gaza Strip which means for those trapped
11:01 11:06 there there's nowhere to run
11:06 11:10 Nora MTS tab thank you one of the first
11:10 11:12 and deadliest attacks in the war took
11:12 11:14 place at a music festival where mostly
11:14 11:16 young people were dancing and spending
11:16 11:19 time with friends Hamas militants killed
11:19 11:22 260 people and took others hostage
11:22 11:25 during the first wave of Terror cbs's
11:25 11:27 Holly Williams traveled to the site
11:27 11:30 where a weekend of music turned into a
11:30 11:34 nightmare for the entire
11:34 11:37 nation in the scrub land of Southern
11:37 11:39 Israel is strewn the aftermath of a
11:39 11:43 party that became a bloody massacre look
11:43 11:46 people's mattresses their tents their
11:46 11:48 blankets are still here thousands of
11:48 11:51 people were gathered here around 3 miles
11:51 11:53 from the border with the Gaza Strip
11:53 11:56 sitting ducks for
11:56 11:59 herass this place is indescribable Eerie
11:59 12:02 young people came here for a party for a
12:02 12:03 celebration and then they were
12:03 12:05 slaughtered and here you can still see
12:05 12:09 their toiletries a toothbrush their
12:09 12:11 clothing early on Saturday after a night
12:11 12:12 of
12:12 12:15 dancing Hamas gun men arrived with
12:15 12:18 murder on their mind as partygoers ran
12:18 12:20 for their
12:20 12:23 lives they were cut down Israel says at
12:23 12:27 least 260 people were killed others were
12:27 12:30 taken captive to holders
12:30 12:33 hostages it's too much to talk about we
12:33 12:35 found these men as they returned to
12:35 12:37 collect their belongings it was hell
12:37 12:40 they told us one of the militants
12:40 12:43 motorbikes is still here along with a
12:43 12:46 stench of death just behind me is the
12:46 12:47 dead body of one of the militants and
12:47 12:50 it's been left here intentionally by the
12:50 12:51 Israeli
12:51 12:54 military soldiers are here to guard the
12:54 12:56 area from another attack and to clean up
12:56 12:57 the
12:57 12:59 Carnage
12:59 13:01 suddenly a shot rang
13:01 13:04 out and then another we've been told to
13:04 13:06 get down we don't we don't know what's
13:06 13:09 happening at this point there were
13:09 13:12 several minutes of confusion Israel is a
13:12 13:14 country on edge and it's little wonder
13:14 13:17 why ahead of us the soldiers had a man
13:17 13:20 surrounded and on the ground there was a
13:20 13:23 person who was arrested the other night
13:23 13:25 everything is under control there were
13:25 13:27 fears that militants could still be
13:27 13:29 hiding inside Israel
13:29 13:31 the man apprehended today is being
13:31 13:33 questioned there is high alert here for
13:33 13:36 a reason 260 people were butchered here
13:36 13:39 less than a week ago and that's why the
13:39 13:40 forces are here to make sure that it's
13:40 13:42 safe to come back here but after a
13:42 13:45 nightmare on this scale Israel's sense
13:45 13:49 of security has been
13:49 13:52 shattered the Israeli military told us
13:52 13:54 there was active fighting today at
13:54 13:56 another location close to the border
13:56 13:58 with the Gaza Strip and Nora earlier

14:59 15:02 leading computer chip company I want to
15:02 15:04 strive for peace I want to engage with
15:04 15:06 the Palestinians but if I think you're
15:06 15:09 threatening any of what's important to
15:09 15:12 me I will kill you now having lost
15:12 15:14 what's more important to him than
15:14 15:17 anything the former Commando says Those
15:17 15:20 Behind the attack should pay the price
15:20 15:22 you know for the short term we need to
15:22 15:24 resolve this thing maybe not in a
15:24 15:27 peaceful way and we need to show force
15:27 15:29 and we need to be strong said as hard as
15:29 15:32 today was he expects the days ahead to
15:32 15:35 be harder realizing Danielle is no
15:35 15:37 longer around she was one of the

16:03 16:05 new information tonight about American
16:05 16:07 citizens stuck here in Israel the state
16:07 16:09 department revealing that more than
16:09 16:12 20,000 people have reached out since the
16:12 16:15 terror attacks on Saturday cbs's Zed
16:15 16:17 Keefe explains how the federal
16:17 16:19 government is now trying to bring them
16:19 16:21 home the Biden administration's decision
16:21 16:22 to organize charter flights to get
16:22 16:25 people home comes as the major US
16:25 16:27 Airlines suspended operations there for
16:27 16:29 the next several weeks we know there's a
16:29 16:30 demand signal out there and we're going
16:30 16:32 to try the best we can to meet it Megan
16:32 16:34 Simmons is desperate to see her sister
16:34 16:36 and family who live near the Gaza border
16:36 16:37 and have been struggling to find a way
16:37 16:40 out all you want to do is hug your
16:40 16:43 family member and know that they're okay
16:43 16:47 and um knowing that the US government
16:47 16:49 hasn't done that yet is really it's very
16:49 16:51 frustrating the charters beginning
16:51 16:53 Friday will travel to Athens or
16:53 16:55 Frankfurt while ships will leave hia in
16:55 16:58 Northern Israel fing people to Cyprus a

17:01 17:04 8 to 12 hours bring only a suitcase a
17:04 17:07 small carry-on and no pets and they'll
17:07 17:09 have to pay back the government France
17:09 17:11 Mexico and Brazil have already begun
17:11 17:14 evacuation flights which makes this even
17:14 17:16 more frustrating for Megan Simmons it
17:16 17:19 feels like every minute that she's there
17:19 17:24 she is one less minute where she's safe
17:24 17:26 CBS News has also learned tonight the US

0:18 0:21 [Music]
0:21 0:24 headlines Israel hammers Gaza promising
0:24 0:28 to destroy Hamas Hamas is Isis and just
0:28 0:30 as Isis was crushed
0:30 0:33 so too will Kamas be crushed this is the
0:33 0:36 moment of impact recorded on this clock
0:36 0:38 just outside the director's office we
0:38 0:40 travel South near the Gaza border to
0:40 0:43 visit a hospital the Children's Center
0:43 0:45 there hit by a rocket we speak with
0:45 0:47 doctors and family members witnessing
0:47 0:51 the horrors of war and they kill him one
0:51 0:55 two s balls right in the head cbs's
0:55 0:57 Holly Williams visits the site of the
0:57 0:59 music festival Massacre where Hamas
0:59 1:03 killed over 250 people this is already
1:03 1:06 an incredibly Eerie place because on
1:06 1:08 Saturday it was filled with thousands of
1:08 1:10 young people who were here for a party
1:10 1:13 and as a result of that they were
1:13 1:15 slaughtered inside Gaza tonight was
1:15 1:17 civilians cut off from the world the
1:17 1:20 concerns of a humanitarian crisis grow I
1:20 1:22 think the whole medical sector and the
1:22 1:24 health department maybe will collaps
1:24 1:26 maybe in two or 3 days the US government
1:26 1:27 is working to get Americans out of
1:27 1:30 Israel but warns you will not be able to
1:30 1:32 choose your destination America's top

1:34 1:37 minister survivors and families of
1:37 1:39 Americans held hostage what he told us

1:57 2:07 way to stop killing each other
2:07 2:08 good evening and thank you for joining
2:08 2:11 us from here in Tel Aviv on day six of
2:11 2:13 the war the main headline here is
2:13 2:15 Israel's bid to crush Hamas with the
2:15 2:18 near constant barrage of air strikes on
2:18 2:20 Gaza ahead of its expected ground
2:20 2:23 invasion in the coming days the
2:23 2:25 catastrophic damage in Gaza is leading
2:25 2:28 to a humanitarian crisis the United
2:28 2:30 Nations now warning that food and water
2:30 2:32 are quickly running out for the more
2:32 2:35 than 2 million Palestinians who are
2:35 2:38 trapped there more than 1200 people have
2:38 2:40 been killed in Israel and over 1500 in
2:40 2:43 Gaza the number of Americans killed is
2:43 2:46 now at 27 and there are 14 Americans
2:46 2:49 still missing and the horrors of War
2:49 2:51 keep getting worse we have a warning for
2:51 2:54 our viewers of a disturbing image
2:54 2:56 released by Israeli Prime Minister
2:56 2:59 Benjamin Netanyahu a baby he says was
2:59 3:01 killed killed by Hamas terrorists
3:01 3:04 Netanyahu met with Secretary of State
3:04 3:06 Anthony blinkin in Tel Aviv today while
3:06 3:08 the state department arranges charter
3:08 3:10 flights to help Americans leave Israel
3:10 3:13 starting tomorrow we sat down with
3:13 3:15 blinkin to hear America's plan to deal
3:15 3:18 with the ongoing crisis we also traveled
3:18 3:21 to a hospital near the Gaza border where
3:21 3:24 we witnessed the human cost of a Nation
3:24 3:26 at War but we do want to begin with
3:26 3:32 Israel's pledge tonight to destroy Hamas
3:32 3:34 six straight days of air assaults the
3:34 3:38 Israeli military dropping 6,000 bombs
3:38 3:41 since they began their counter strike on
3:41 3:43 Gaza while troops on the ground ready
3:43 3:46 for an invasion any day today the US
3:46 3:48 showing its support with Secretary of
3:48 3:50 State Anthony blinkin in Tel Aviv the
3:50 3:53 United States stands with Israel and
3:53 3:58 with its people today tomorrow every day
3:58 4:00 the secretary telling us this the state
4:00 4:02 department is now arranging flights to
4:02 4:04 evacuate Americans out of Israel there
4:04 4:05 are a lot of people who are here you
4:05 4:07 know for the holidays visiting family
4:07 4:09 visiting friends at any given time there
4:09 4:11 may be as many as a 100,000 Americans in
4:11 4:13 Israel who are visiting and eventually
4:13 4:15 want to go home the death toll Rising
4:15 4:18 the Grim task of recovering bodies
4:18 4:20 continues after Israeli intelligence
4:20 4:23 failed to thwart the attack I just
4:23 4:25 wonder because as one of the president's
4:25 4:28 closest advisers the Secretary of State
4:28 4:29 it has been suggested that Hamas is
4:29 4:32 communicating now in different ways that
4:32 4:33 cannot be picked up by even the best
4:33 4:36 intelligence is that something that
4:36 4:38 American intelligence is aware of
4:38 4:40 talking about so that Americans stay
4:40 4:44 safe we have an extraordinarily Vigilant
4:44 4:47 intelligence community that is working
4:47 4:50 every single minute of every single day
4:50 4:52 I think um as Israelis go back and and
4:52 4:56 look at what happened here um it may
4:56 5:00 well be not that they didn't didn't have
5:00 5:02 something but that they didn't interpret
5:02 5:06 it in um in what proved to be the the
5:06 5:07 right
5:07 5:10 way we drove South to the port city of
5:10 5:13 ashalon and a hospital inundated with
5:13 5:16 casualties just yesterday a rocket tore
5:16 5:18 through a children's center there this
5:18 5:21 is where the Missile hit yes right up
5:21 5:24 here Hospital official I let Israel told
5:24 5:27 us because they are just miles from Gaza
5:27 5:30 the children were evacuated days ago
5:30 5:32 this was really a miracle because
5:32 5:34 everything was on fire over here this is
5:34 5:37 the moment of impact recorded on this
5:37 5:40 clock just outside the director's office
5:40 5:42 he was here luckily because of the
5:42 5:45 sirens he was able to make it down into
5:45 5:48 the bomb shelter and was okay this is
5:48 5:50 the emergency room Dr Ron LEL has worked
5:50 5:55 here for 43 years how many injured came
5:55 5:57 here on Saturday within the first few
5:57 6:00 hours more than 200
6:00 6:02 injured arrived into the hospital can
6:02 6:06 you describe some of the injuries of
6:06 6:08 those that were brought here people came
6:08 6:12 in with with gunshot injuries um either
6:12 6:16 to their head their face the chest uh um
6:16 6:20 some came with uh 20 bullets Dr LEL saw
6:20 6:23 not only the horrors of Hamas in the
6:23 6:27 hospital but also at his home for about
6:27 6:31 uh 6 hours they totally controlled the
6:31 6:34 village moving from one house to another
6:34 6:36 slaughtering the people inside how did
6:36 6:39 you survive I don't know I don't have a
6:39 6:44 clue it was the most uh
6:44 6:47 frightening 102 hours of my life I'm not
6:47 6:51 equipped with the with the guns you're a
6:51 6:55 doctor yeah I'm a doctor and uh all I I
6:55 6:58 could do is close all the windows and
6:58 7:01 the doors and great among the patients
7:01 7:04 here two of Sabine tassa's Sons how are
7:04 7:08 they doing no good my little one shy
7:08 7:11 lost his eye cannot see he will be blind
7:11 7:15 with one eyes how old is he eight my
7:15 7:17 other child
7:17 7:22 receive many pieces of grenade in his
7:22 7:25 body Sabine told us in chilling detail
7:25 7:28 how one militant stormed her house she
7:28 7:30 says she will never for get his face he
7:30 7:32 came to me
7:32 7:36 and came to me to kill me he didn't kill
7:36 7:40 me why I don't know but they did kill
7:40 7:44 her husband Gil my husband was a fireman
7:44 7:49 he was a tough man they put the grenade
7:49 7:53 and then they killed him next to the
7:53 7:55 children your children saw that yeah
7:55 7:58 their father died yeah it only got worse
7:58 7:59 as she learned her oldest son
7:59 8:03 17-year-old or was murdered too he was
8:03 8:06 surfing when Hamas stormed zum beach by
8:06 8:09 sea I'm wondering what you think about
8:09 8:11 the amount of time it took for the
8:11 8:14 Israeli forces to respond I can't even
8:14 8:17 understand because when a bird hits the
8:17 8:20 fence there is an alarm we know about it
8:20 8:25 when a donkey uh touches the fence uh
8:25 8:28 the alarm is set when somebody get close
8:28 8:30 to the fence
8:30 8:32 there are automatic weapons that start
8:32 8:36 shooting nothing of that
8:36 8:39 happened and that is why so many people
8:39 8:42 are still confused about how their
8:42 8:44 country was caught by
8:44 8:47 surprise now across the border to Gaza
8:47 8:49 where innocent civilians who have
8:49 8:52 nothing to do with terrorism are trapped
8:52 8:55 with no way out cbs's MTS tyab reports
8:55 8:57 tonight on some of the youngest
8:57 9:00 casualties of War there a and a warning
9:00 9:03 some of the images are
9:03 9:06 disturbing across Gaza and its children
9:06 9:08 who are paying the ultimate price the
9:08 9:11 lifeless body of a baby girl is placed
9:11 9:13 next to her dead father in the middle of
9:13 9:16 the street at the main shipa hospital
9:16 9:19 tiny bodies covered in blood are treated
9:19 9:21 by exhausted doctors there are so many
9:21 9:24 casualties intensive care units are
9:24 9:26 overflowing and there's just 3 days of
9:26 9:29 fuel left other hospitals are already
9:29 9:32 ready out says Dr Muhammad M I think the
9:32 9:33 whole medical sector and the health
9:33 9:35 department maybe will collapse maybe in
9:35 9:37 two or 3 days over half the population
9:37 9:40 of Gaza is under the age of 18 just
9:40 9:43 children who had no say in hamas's
9:43 9:45 brutal assault on Southern Israel at
9:45 9:48 least 300,000 people are displaced many
9:48 9:51 Sheltering in schools 15-year-old
9:51 9:53 Muhammad Halas is now
9:53 9:55 homeless we're sleeping in a hospital
9:55 9:58 with non-stop bombing above us he says I
9:58 10:00 hope that the world looks at us with
10:00 10:04 some mercy this is Gaza tonight almost
10:04 10:07 complete
10:07 10:09 darkness despite some International
10:09 10:11 criticism prime minister Benjamin
10:11 10:13 Netanyahu has also ordered a complete
10:13 10:15 blockade of Gaza meaning Israel won't
10:15 10:18 allow in food fuel or water until
10:18 10:21 Israeli abductees are returned home but
10:21 10:24 Hamas says it refuses to negotiate their
10:24 10:27 release until Israel lifts its Siege
10:27 10:29 only amplifying the misery of the more
10:29 10:31 than 2 million people who live here
10:31 10:34 including around 600
10:34 10:37 Americans Israel has repeatedly targeted
10:37 10:40 gaza's Rua border crossing with Egypt as
10:40 10:42 the Egyptian government negotiates with
10:42 10:45 the US and Israel to let in fuel and
10:45 10:48 humanitarian
10:48 10:52 aid but Egypt is refusing to allow an
10:52 10:54 exodus of Palestinians into its
10:54 10:56 countries over fears Israel will try to
10:56 10:59 prevent them from ever returning to the
10:59 11:01 Gaza Strip which means for those trapped
11:01 11:06 there there's nowhere to run
11:06 11:10 Nora MTS tab thank you one of the first
11:10 11:12 and deadliest attacks in the war took
11:12 11:14 place at a music festival where mostly
11:14 11:16 young people were dancing and spending
11:16 11:19 time with friends Hamas militants killed
11:19 11:22 260 people and took others hostage
11:22 11:25 during the first wave of Terror cbs's
11:25 11:27 Holly Williams traveled to the site
11:27 11:30 where a weekend of music turned into a
11:30 11:34 nightmare for the entire
11:34 11:37 nation in the scrub land of Southern
11:37 11:39 Israel is strewn the aftermath of a
11:39 11:43 party that became a bloody massacre look
11:43 11:46 people's mattresses their tents their
11:46 11:48 blankets are still here thousands of
11:48 11:51 people were gathered here around 3 miles
11:51 11:53 from the border with the Gaza Strip
11:53 11:56 sitting ducks for
11:56 11:59 herass this place is indescribable Eerie
11:59 12:02 young people came here for a party for a
12:02 12:03 celebration and then they were
12:03 12:05 slaughtered and here you can still see
12:05 12:09 their toiletries a toothbrush their
12:09 12:11 clothing early on Saturday after a night
12:11 12:12 of
12:12 12:15 dancing Hamas gun men arrived with
12:15 12:18 murder on their mind as partygoers ran
12:18 12:20 for their
12:20 12:23 lives they were cut down Israel says at
12:23 12:27 least 260 people were killed others were
12:27 12:30 taken captive to holders
12:30 12:33 hostages it's too much to talk about we
12:33 12:35 found these men as they returned to
12:35 12:37 collect their belongings it was hell
12:37 12:40 they told us one of the militants
12:40 12:43 motorbikes is still here along with a
12:43 12:46 stench of death just behind me is the
12:46 12:47 dead body of one of the militants and
12:47 12:50 it's been left here intentionally by the
12:50 12:51 Israeli
12:51 12:54 military soldiers are here to guard the
12:54 12:56 area from another attack and to clean up
12:56 12:57 the
12:57 12:59 Carnage
12:59 13:01 suddenly a shot rang
13:01 13:04 out and then another we've been told to
13:04 13:06 get down we don't we don't know what's
13:06 13:09 happening at this point there were
13:09 13:12 several minutes of confusion Israel is a
13:12 13:14 country on edge and it's little wonder
13:14 13:17 why ahead of us the soldiers had a man
13:17 13:20 surrounded and on the ground there was a
13:20 13:23 person who was arrested the other night
13:23 13:25 everything is under control there were
13:25 13:27 fears that militants could still be
13:27 13:29 hiding inside Israel
13:29 13:31 the man apprehended today is being
13:31 13:33 questioned there is high alert here for
13:33 13:36 a reason 260 people were butchered here
13:36 13:39 less than a week ago and that's why the
13:39 13:40 forces are here to make sure that it's
13:40 13:42 safe to come back here but after a
13:42 13:45 nightmare on this scale Israel's sense
13:45 13:49 of security has been
13:49 13:52 shattered the Israeli military told us
13:52 13:54 there was active fighting today at
13:54 13:56 another location close to the border
13:56 13:58 with the Gaza Strip and Nora earlier
