Past two weeks amid growing fears it could kickstart a regional conflict. Reporter back in gaza, the death toll has now soared to more than 5,000, hamas says, with thousands of children among the dead. Amid growing International Condemnation of the civilian deaths. The Israeli Military released graphic video of the massacre that unfolded here just over two weeks ago. Dash cam video said to be from a civilian car shows gunmen approaching the car and opening fire. A body cam recovered from one of the attackers shows a hail of gunfire. The bodies of the two victims slumped over, shot dead. In recent days, israeli commandos have mounted raids into gaza to attack targets and try to find out information about more than 220 hostages still held captive. The release of two more hostages tonight will come as a relief for their families. But to hamas, it may serve as a stalling tactic to slow down israels allout invasion. As was the case when the american hostages were released just a couple of days ago, there was a brief lull in air strikes. Today our colleagues in gaza tell us. But were also hearing tonight of a possible strike on the al shaty refugee camp killing a number of civilians. Thats according to the hamas health ministry. Norah. Charlie dagata, thank you.

Cbss imtiaz tyab reports from East Jerusalem that israel launched a rare air strike on a hamas target in the west bank. [ siren ] reporter the destruction here is near total. The Israeli Military said it targeted the alan sar mosque because hamas was using it as a, quote, terrorist compound. This is just the second time in 20 years that israel has carried out an air strike in the occupied west bank, and the fear now is that more is to come. In the apartment next door, the force of the air strike the israeli media says was from a fighter jet was so powerful it ble a hole through the adjoining wall. Its a place of worship, he says, like a church or a synagogue, not a place for fighters. Anger is only growing across the west bank, where 95 palestinians have been killed according to the Palestinian Ministry of health. But its in gaza where the death toll continues to spiral at a speed never seen before. Although the desperately needed convoys of humanitarian need have started making their way through egypt, each truck carries food for only around 4,000 people according to the wfp, nowhere near enough for gazas population of more than 2 million. As fears continue to grow for the safety of the up to 600 Americans Still trapped inside gaza, like emily rosh berger and her five children, who went there to visit her husbands mother. Theyre very scared. They just have lots of questions that are hard to answer, like when can we leave or why is this you know, why is it you know, why is all the bombardment happening to everybody .

You say that the Israeli Government has confirmed that theyre being held as hostages. How do you think they might be being treated right now . Those thoughts come, and i shake them away because i cant allow myself to break. We have to stay strong. We have to keep going full force until they are all released and back home. While the u. S.

Reporter as israeli air strikes pound targets inside gaza, rear admiral daniel ha gorys job is to explain the aftermath. When these pictures every day of women and children in the rubble, that doesnt help your cause. This is a tough fight, but it shows the face of hamas using the fwrks azans as human shield. Reporter israels chief military spokesperson says the war has two goals. One is to destroy hamas, leaders, infrastructures. And the other goal is to release the hostages. Reporter but for the families of the more than 200 people still held by hamas, hagori had little comfort. Can you at least tell them tonight that they are alive and that they are not being mistreated . I cannot tell them that. Were in a war, and our goal is to bring everybody home as long as it takes. Reporter that commitment to fight comes from evidence like this, he says. A note newly recovered off the body of a hamas attacker. This is what it says. The enemy is a disease that has no cure. Why was it so important for you to show it to us today . Because the world needs to understand its not an issue of palestinians and israelis. Its an issue of a crime against humanity. Reporter but there is also the crucial question of what comes after hamas, both for gaza and for the israelis. And on that, hagari said its and on that, hagari said its just too soon to tell.

Thousands so far as the world holds its breath in anticipation of a fullscale invasion. Israeli commando teams have been sent in to ferret out tunnels and rocket launch sites and to search for the hundreds of hostages held by hamas. The white house is reportedly pressing israel to postpone the ground assault in the hope of negotiating the release of these hostages. Meanwhile, all of gaza has been sealed off, and at least 400 americans either living in or visiting gaza are stuck there. Tony dokoupil spoke with one u. S. Citizen who traveled to gaza to visit relatives. Reporter as israel hammers gaza from the air, Emily Rauschenbergers family is on the ground. Its a bit of russian roulette going to sleep at night. Reporter she and her palestinianborn husband mohammed brought their five kids, ages 4 through 14, on what they thought would be a short trip to gaza. Why bring your kids there in the first place . Because of family. They have many uncles and aunts and grandparents here, a grandmother still alive here, and if we didnt come, they would never know them. Reporter but the visit with their sito, their grandmother, came just as war broke out all around them. What have you told the kids about whats happening . I imagine theyre scared. Theyre very scared. They just have lots of questions that are hard to answer, like when can we leave . Or why is all the bombardment happening to everybody . Reporter theyre now sheltering in an Apartment Building in south gaza after evacuating from another family home. The kids fighting boredom with a chess set. The grownups figuring out how to keep them fed with dwindling resources. Water started to run out on the wednesday after the conflict started. From then, you have to go out with water tubs and find sources of drinking water. The bread lines are very long. You have to stand a few hours or go to another locality to wait in those lines to find bread, which is really a staple food here. You are remarkably steady and composed. Are there moments where you are just at your limit . Certainly. You just, um, try to stay positive. You know that this cant last forever and that there has to be a brighter day coming. Reporter but so far, leaving is not an option though humanitarian aid has begun moving in, the borders with israel and egypt are still closed to those like emily and her family. Whats it like for you to know that americans here in israel are being provided charters by the u. S. State department to get them out of potential harms way here in israel, and yet there you are stuck in gaza . Its ironic, i suppose. Theres just not enough political will for some reason to push for more assistance for americans in gaza. If were concerned about american life, it should be all american lives. Theres really no good reason that we shouldnt be pressuring more to have this happen. You must have anger in all of this. You must have frustration. Where do you direct it . Thats a tough question, but i think i would say, you know, its not its not a simple answer. Its successive failures of Many Political leaders, and i hold the hope that were learning lessons and a new generation, new thinking can emerge out of this. That was Tony Dokoupil in israel. The war in gaza has led to heightened security here in the united states. Outside of chicago, a 6yearold muslim boy was stabbed to death, and his mother wounded by the familys landlord, allegedly because they were muslim. And over the weekend, the president of a synagogue in detroit was found stabbed to Death Outside her home. Catherine herridge reports. Reporter from barricades around the u. S. Capitol to armed police at places of worship, the visible security reflects the heightened threat at home. Theres a real deep concern that something might happen, and we want to make sure that the Jewish Community is protected. Youve done active shooter training. Absolutely. Reporter gil pruce of the Jewish Federation of Greater Washington says theyve added more armed police at synagogues and have close to realtime intelligence sharing with the fbi about potential threats. As the conflict expands, as more people die, there will be greater animosity and greater likelihood of acts against the Jewish Community. Were now starting to see the hate crimes come in. Reporter texasbased imam omar suelyman tells cbs news the Muslim Community is also on edge. Every mosque in america right now, every Islamic School is shoring up security. Reporter intelligence bulletins obtained by cbs news this week confirm an increase in threats to the jewish, muslim, and arab communities, including reports of physical assaults, bomb threats, and online calls for mass casualty attacks as well as foreign terrorist groups like al qaeda calling on supporters to attack americans. Our fbi field offices all across the country are communicating not just with state and local Law Enforcement but also with faithbased organizations. Reporter the fbi director, christopher wray, warns of lone actors, who may take inspiration from the conflict to commit violence in the u. S. In chicago, a 6yearold muslim boy was killed and his mother injured in an alleged hate crime. Theres a central question a lot of americans are asking. Can Homeland Security stop the violence from coming here . What the u. S. Government tries to do is reduce the risk. Its not perfect. Reporter michael chert hoff was Homeland Security secretary after the 9 11 attacks. When youre dealing with americans themselves who are carrying out acts of violence, its hard to aeptd and stop every attack. How does the Ground Invasion by israel change the threat environment here in the u. S. . So anything that elevates the number of casualties creates horrifying visual images.

Bradley blackburn found one possible answer. Reporter in sayerville, new jersey, a green future is hiding in plain sight. When it was installed in 2019, this photo voltaic solar array was the largest in the country. But many residents still have no clue its here. Its a quiet unobtrusive way for us to generate that power. Reporter the town didnt want to cut down trees for a solar field. Ultimately this will be drenching water. Reporter but this Municipal Reservoir was wide open. Theyre not making any more land, so lets apply it where we have the open space. The possibility arises of putting vast amounts of solar floating on calm tropical seas. Reporter Andrew Blakers studies floating solar. He says it saves land for crops or other purposes, and there are plenty of viable bodies of water to theoretically power the entire planet. The global capacity of Floating Solar Panel systems is projected to jump sevenfold by 2030. Its already used in places like thailand, even the u. S. Army is installing it on bases. Solar really is the solution to Climate Change and will be far larger than Everything Else put together because its Resource Base is vastly larger than Everything Else put together. Reporter and another benefit, in hot, dry, climates the coverage from these solar panels can reduce water evaporation from reservoirs. In sayreville, Officials Say they found their floating system safe for the water and good for the environment. It also saves money by powering the Water Treatment plant and they can sell extra energy to the grid. This gives us a lot of other benefits, but the one im most concerned with is keeping the burden off the taxpayer. Reporter an Energy Option floating to the top as the world searches for greener power. Bradley blackburn, cbs news, sayreville, new jersey. These days, most kids carry cell phones, even in school. But now some schools are going phonefree, and most students dont seem to mind. Meg oliver reports. Reporter for students at newberg free academy in new york, the first assignment of the day, locking their phones in pouches made by the company yonder for seven hours, including lunch. It was a bit of a shock for some students when the policy was introduced four years ago. I was ready to start a petition, bring it to the principal. Like stop it real fast. Reporter but no one signed 17yearold tyson hills petition, and now he loves attending a phonefree school. Why is this approach better . I mean coming from a school where it was banned but it wasnt implemented, i was still using my phone. I was still on my phone. Reporter here Students Walk with their heads up in the hall, socialize and laugh in the lunchroom, and focus on what teachers like dennis maher are saying. Thats the beauty of this. Its a gamechanger. Its night and day. I saw kids faces again. Reporter according to the cdc, in the ten years leading up to the pandemic, feelings of persistent sadness and hopelessness as well as suicidal thoughts and behaviors increased by about 40 while test scores, especially in math for grades four and eight, saw the biggest decline on record. While theres debate on whether technology, including phones, deserves much of the blame for these trends, social psychologist jonathan hite says its the only explanation. So it wasnt the pandemic that did this to us. This was all starting in the explanation anyone can offer for whie this happened all over the world is the phones. Reporter hite is the author of the coddling of the American Mind and started researching gen z in 2015 when cases of anxiety and depression started to rise. He says in 2010, most teenagers had flip phones they used for texting, a tool to help them connect in person. But between 2010 and 2015, smartphones changed the landscape, inundating people with notifications, group chats, and social media. Smartphones are basically kryptonite for learning. When children have a phone in their pocket and most schools say you have to keep your phone in your pocket, you cant use it during class, which is like saying in a drug detox clinic, you can keep your heroin in your pocket. Just dont shoot up. Dont shoot up. If kids have access to a phone, they will text. They will check their social media. They will not Pay Attention to the teacher or to each other in person. Reporter back at newberg free academy, students lock up their phones and leave them in the class room all day. The technology isnt new, but the company yonder estimates they saw a 150 increase in schools using them in 2023, which more than 2,000 schools participating. Its amazing to see kids come to school and not have to worry about that phone going off and a video being posted of them fighting in the bathroom or them being bullied by someone else on social media. Reporter assistant principal ebony clark says the pushback to remove phones was minimal, including concerns over safety. Theres an emergency, an active shooter. That phone going off makes them a target. Reporter yonder pouches cost between 25 and 30 per student. Hite says while they arent foolproof, its an easy solution for a generation in the midst of a Mental Health crisis. This was a disastrous experiment that we began in the early 2010 s. female i grew up in a home that didnt have running water. My shoes always had holes in them. I know how it is to be poor. I listened to a message of dr. Stanleys, talking about, you know, how you never really live your life until you actually give it away. He kinda gave me that push to get out there and really do something. Social media is turning some restaurants into overnight sensations. Naomi ruchim got a taste of their success. Reporter the lexington candy shop has been serving food and floats on new yorks Upper East Side for 98 years. The restaurant that predates television saw business boom last year when this tiktok video of a coke float being made scored millions of views. So that was 3 00 in the afternoon. At 3 30, 4 00, people started lining up. And sales of coke floats went from 70 a week to 2,000. Its like a tidal wave. Next is the hot cheeto burger. Reporter when this video hit tiktok in 2020, fatimas grill in los angeles became a social media sensation. Since then, the company has opened seven more locations. But becoming an instant trend can be both a blessing and a curse. Just ask dominique ansel, whose culinary invention took off ten years ago. It was very overwhelming, i have to say. Reporter in 2013, ansel introduced the cronut. Well before tiktok, his creation went viral through traditional media, like tv. The croissant donut hybrid that has people willing to wait for hours. Reporter ansel said he had to quickly hire new people and decided to limit the amount of cronuts he made. He now has stores in hong kong and las vegas, and a decade later people still line up at his original manhattan bakery, a viral sensation with staying power. Naomi ruchim, cbs news, new york.

Forces in iraq and syria. It comes as western leaders behind the scenes are asking israel to delay their Ground Invasion in hopes of getting more hostages out. Heres cbss nancy cordes. Reporter its delicate diplomacy. Privately, the white house is urging israeli officials to hold off on a Ground Invasion of gaza while publicly, u. S. Officials say its up to israel. Were not dictating military terms to the Israeli Defense forces. Reporter waiting would give the u. S. And israel more time to negotiate the release of hostages, including at least 10 americans who are unaccounted for. Waiting would also give neighboring egypt more time to deliver food, water, and medicine to innocent palestinians. You view humanitarian aid getting there first as important . Whether or not theres a Ground Invasion, we believe that humanitarian assistance flowing to the people of gaza is critically important, and it needs to go as soon as possible and as much as possible. Reporter a delay would also buy time for more u. S. Troops to move into position as american bases in the region increasingly come under fire from suspected iranbacked militias. Just today, the pentagon announced the tenth such attack in the past week. Drone strikes on two u. S. Bases in syria. The pentagon already has about 10 ships in the region with roughly 9,000 sailors and marines on board. And another Aircraft Carrier strike group with about 6,000 troops on board was ordered to the persian gulf this weekend in an effort to further deter iran. Nancy cordes joins us from the white house. Nancy, we took note today that former president barack obama is weighing in publicly with a serious warning for israel. What did he say . What do you think it means . Reporter yes, and perhaps speaking more bluntly, norah, about an ally than a current president could. Mr. Obama wrote that israels military strategy could backfire if it doesnt do more to minimize civilian casualties. And he wrote that the Israeli Governments decision to cut off food, water, and electricity to a captive civilian population could further harden palestinian attitudes for generations and erode Global Support for israel. He said this message needs to be delivered loud and clear to israel by the u. S. Norah. Nancy cordes at the white house, thank you. Theres a lot more news ahead on the cbs overnight news. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. We turn now to todays other top story, the release of two more hostages by hamas.

Reporter ahead of their release, yocheveds grandson spoke of his grandparents kindness. My grandfather and grandmother were taking the sick people from gaza strip who cannot get their treatment there to israeli hospitals. Reporter it comes as Israeli Forces launched a ferocious new assault across gaza. Hundreds of explosions and some of the heaviest bombardment gaza has seen in two weeks of israeli air strikes. Ahead of an expected ground offensive, u. S. Officials warn of an escalation of violence across the region, especially from iranianbacked groups like hezbollah in lebanon. Cbss debora patta is in northern israel. Reporter wed just arrived in the border town of Kiryat Shmona to film the evacuation of residents when we were ducking for cover. The air raid sirens were followed within seconds by a loud blast. What youve just been hearing is exactly why authorities want the last few thousand people left in this town to evacuate to safety. Less than a mile from here, this house had been hit by a mortar. Inside, a mother and her young children. The crossfire between israel and lebanons iranianbacked hezbollah has picked up over the past two weeks amid growing fears it could kickstart a regional conflict. Reporter back in gaza, the death toll has now soared to more than 5,000, hamas says, with thousands of children among the dead. Amid growing International Condemnation of the civilian deaths, the Israeli Military released graphic video of the massacre that unfolded here just over two weeks ago. Dash cam video said to be from a civilian car shows gunmen approaching the car and opening fire. A body cam recovered from one of the attackers shows a hail of gunfire. [ sound of gunfire ] the bodies of the two victims slumped over, shot dead. In recent days, israeli commandos have mounted raids into gaza to attack targets and try to find out information about more than 220 hostages still held captive. The release of two more hostages tonight will come as a relief for their families. But to hamas, it may serve as a stalling tactic to slow down israels allout invasion. As was the case when the american hostages were released just a couple of days ago, there was a brief lull in air strikes today our colleagues in gaza tell us. But were also hearing tonight of a possible strike on the al shati refugee camp, killing a number of civilians. Thats according to the hamas health ministry. Norah. Charlie dagata, thank you. Also new today, a third convoy of trucks carrying muchneeded aid was allowed into gaza. But experts say its still not enough to stem the growing humanitarian crisis. Cbss imtiaz tyab reports from East Jerusalem that israel launched a rare air strike on a hamas target in the west bank. [ siren ] reporter the destruction here is near total. The Israeli Military said it targeted the Al Ansar Mosque because hamas was using it as a, quote, terrorist compound. This is just the second time in 20 years that israel has carried out an air strike in the occupied west bank, and the fear now is that more is to come. In the apartment next door, the force of the air strike the israeli media says was from a fighter jet was so powerful it blew a hole through the adjoining wall. [ speaking in a global language ] reporter its a place of worship, he says, like a church or a synagogue, not a place for fighters. Anger is only growing across the west bank, where 95 palestinians have been killed according to the Palestinian Ministry of health. And more than 800 have been arrested since the war began two weeks ago says the Israeli Military. But its in gaza where the death toll continues to spiral at a speed never seen before. Although the desperately needed convoys of humanitarian aid have started making their way in from egypt after a deal was reached between the u. S. And israel, each truck carries food for only around 4,000 people according to the wfp, nowhere near enough for gazas population of more than 2 million. As fears continue to grow for the safety of the up to 600 Americans Still trapped inside gaza, like Emily Rauschenberger and her five children, who went there to visit her husbands mother. Theyre very scared. They just have lots of questions that are hard to answer, like when can we leave . Or why is this you know, why is it you know, why is all the bombardment happening to everybody . Reporter now, rauschenberger says she feels left behind as americans in israel are evacuated home by the state department while she and her children remain trapped in gaza as the violence there only intensifies.

Those were the two americans that were released on friday. When you first saw those images, the videos, the photographs of them released, what was that feeling like . Overwhelming. Its disbelief, and its relief at the same time. And its all the emotions all at once because being happy is a privilege that we do not have right now. You have eight family members who are still missing. You say that the Israeli Government has confirmed that theyre being held as hostages. How do you think they might be being treated right now . Those thoughts come, and i shake them away because i cant allow myself to break. We have to stay strong. We have to keep going full force until they are all released and back home. While the u. S. Is advising israel to delay its fullblown Ground Invasion, the military, weve learned, is conducting some limited ground raids into gaza. Cbs mornings cohost Tony Dokoupil sat down with israels chief military spokesperson to talk about its dual mission rescue the hostages and eliminate hamas. Reporter as israeli air strikes pound targets inside gaza, rear admiral daniel hagaris job is to explain the aftermath. When these pictures every day of women and children in the rubble, that doesnt help your cause. This is a tough fight, but it shows the face of hamas using the gazans as human shield. Reporter israels chief military spokesperson says the war has two goals. One is to destroy hamas leaders, infrastructures, and the other goal is to release the hostages.

Can you at least tell them tonight that they are alive and that they are not being mistreated . I cannot tell them that. Were in a war, and our goal is to bring everybody home as long as it takes. Reporter that commitment to fight comes from evidence like this, he says. A note newly recovered off the body of a hamas attacker. This is what it says. The enemy is a disease that has no cure. Why was it so important for you to show it to us today . Because the world needs to understand its not an issue of palestinians and israelis. Its an issue of a crime against humanity. Reporter but there is also the crucial question of what comes after hamas, both for gaza and for the israelis. And on that, hagari said its just too soon to tell. Norah. Tony dokoupil, thank you.
