We just learned several americans are among the dead. And of the more than 600 israelis who died, 260 of the bodies were found at the site of a Music Festival inside israel near the border with gaza.

We begin with raf sanchez in israel. Reporter tonight, israel taking the war to gaza.

This is all thats left of an Israeli Police station that was overrun by hamas militants. There was a 20hour gun battle here. With rockets streaking overhead, our team running for the nearest bomb shelter. But in gaza, where 2 million civilians live under hamas rule, there are no Bomb Shelters to run to. And the death toll among ordinary palestinians, including children, expected to climb. Tonight rockets fired from lebanon by hezbollah militants aligned with hamas. The latest sign that a war which started in the holy land may not end here. Raf sanchez joins us now. It is almost too much to process. What is israel saying about the possibility of sending Ground Troops into gaza . Reporter kate, israels military says all options are on the table, but over the course of the day, we have seen columns of israeli tanks moving towards the gaza border. A possible sign that a Ground Offensive is imminent. Kate. All right. Raf, thank you for your reporting there. We just told you about one apparent kidnapping. There appear to be many more. Tonight were hearing about the final desperate messages sent to loved ones, and we now know americans are among those feared missing. Kelly cobiella is in tel aviv.

All he could do was track his wifes phone all the way to gaza. And later on, i located her mobile phone and only later on, i saw the video. Reporter this video released by hamas showing a group of women being held at an undisclosed location. The hostages are believed to be hidden throughout gaza, likely being used as Human Shields and to blunt a fullscale israeli counterattack. And they are also powerful bargaining chips. In 2006, hamas fighters seized this man and held him for five years. He was ultimately exchanged for more than a thousand palestinian prisoners. Kelly, you spoke to these Family Members. Its heartbreaking to hear them. What sticks with you the most . Reporter well, theyre incredibly griefstricken of course. But whats making it even more difficult for them is they say theyre not hearing anything from the israeli government. Kate. Kelly cobiella, thank you. The pentagon today announced the u. S. Is sending military assets closer to israel, including one of the navys most advanced Aircraft Carriers. Courtney kube covers the Department Of Defense for us. She was first to report this move. What do we know . Reporter thats right, kate. The pentagon announcing the uss gerald r. Ford Carrier Strike group is heading to the eastern mediterranean. That includes the navys newest Aircraft Carrier, the ford, and cruisers and four guided missile destroyers. Now, shes ships can launch missiles that can hit both targets on the land and be used for air defense. This is a show of support but also a show of power. The u. S. Goal is to deter hamas and anyone supporting hamas from further attacks. The u. S. Is also adding additional airpower on land near israel, including f35s, the most advanced Fighter Aircraft in the u. S. Arsenal. Does this mean the u. S. Military could get pulled into the war . Well, the u. S. Officials im speaking with insisted at this point there is no active consideration for sending u. S. Boots on the ground. Kate. Courtney kube, thank you. A reminder of the geography here. This is the gaza strip, about 140 square miles, one of the most densely populated places on earth with 2 million palestinians there. Israel withdrew its forces from gaza nearly 20 years ago, but along with egypt, it still controls all of gazas Land And Sea Borders as well as its airspace. Inside of gaza, the Hamas Militant Group is in charge. Its deemed a Terrorist Group by the United States. Its goals include ending israels occupation of palestinian territories, but they also call for the complete destruction of israel. If we zoom out even more, israel has long been the worlds only jewish state with some of its neighbors opposed to its very existence. The u. S. Has always supported israel, calling it the lone democracy in the region. Lets turn now to Gabe Gutierrez with more on the Biden Administration response. Reporter congress paralyzed, unable to act without a house speaker. There are mounting questions about future u. S. Aid to israel. Any sort of additional appropriations would require a functional house of representatives, and so wed like to see that situation resolved as soon as possible. Reporter the u. S. Already provides 3. 8 billion a year in military assistance to israel, one of its closest allies. President biden speaking again today with Prime Minister netanyahu as the u. N. Security council held an emergency meeting this afternoon. This atrocity is israels 9 11. From now, nothing will be as it was. Reporter its the latest Foreign Policy challenge for the president. Amid fatigue over the war in ukraine and escalating tensions between china and taiwan, hes now facing growing backlash from his political rivals. The Israeli Attack was made because we are perceived as being weak and ineffective. Iran funds hamas. The Biden Administration has made that a lot easier by being weak on sanctions. Reporter republicans are also suggesting without evidence that 6 billion in Iranian Oil Revenues that the u. S. Unfroze last month in exchange for five american prisoners helped hamas fund the attack, a claim the administration is strongly denying. Not a single cent has been spent from that account. When any money is spent from that account, it can only be used for medical supplies, for food, for medicine, and those who are saying otherwise are either misinformed or misinforming. Reporter Secretary Of State Antony Blinken says hes not yet seen evidence that iran directed this particular attack but that iran and hamas have had a long relationship. U. S. Officials are also looking into whether recent efforts to broker an agreement wen israel and saudi arabia may have driven the Palestinian Militants to attack. Certainly that could have been part of the motivation. Gabe, it was such a surprise attack. Has the Biden Administration acknowledged it was a huge Intelligence Failure . Reporter theyre not using that word, kate. The white house says its immediate focus is getting israel the help it needs and the deputy National Security adviser says now is not the time to look backwards. Kate. Gabe gutierrez for us.

The nfl is warning that its stadiums are at risk of possible attack, and theyre calling on congress to help protect players and fans from the possible threat rogue drones. Ken dilanian reports. Reporter a Major College Football Game interrupted yesterday when a drone flew over a packed ohio stadium. First time weve ever dealt with this. Apparently there is a drone. Reporter last year, an nfl game paused for the same reason. We understand were getting word that there was some type of drone over the field that should not have been there, was not cleared to be there. It feels like a big hole in our fence. Reporter former washington, d. C. Police chief cathy lanier is the National Football leagues head of security, and shes sounding the alarm. Last year we had 2,500 Drone Incursions that entered the restricted airspace just during that window and just during our regular season games in our stadiums. Thats up from just over 1,300 the year before. This is getting a lot worse. Its doubling. Reporter fedex field is a fortress protected by layers of security. The fans will pass through metal detectors. But the airspace above is undefended. Right now only the fbi and the department of Homeland Security have the Legal Authority to take down threatening drones. But they only send counterdrone teams to big events like the super bowl, not to regular games. And even still, theyre Takedown Authority is set to expire next month. What were seeing in war zones like ukraine are these inexpensive drones that are used for military purposes, but that technology can also be picked up and used by a Terrorist Group at a civilian stadium or any kind of public infrastructure. Reporter senator gary peters, who chairs the Homeland Security committee, is pushing not only to renew that law but to expand the authority so that state and local Police Departments can bring down rogue drones as well. They can do that by jamming their signals or by other electronic methods. And the concern is real. Watch this drone crash into a spectator at a San Diego Padres game. We had a Circumstance Back in 2018 where we had a Drone Operator who modified the drone to carry leaflets, and it flew in over our stadium midgame and dropped leaflets. That could be anything.
