Commander for the middle east says he agrees with the assessment. There is a chance that our operations may have contributed to civilian casualties. Reporter but a march 17th airstrike which targeted an isis fighting position was not designed to tear down the entire building. It should not have created the effects that we, that have been observed. Reporter one possibility is that shock waves from the fighting in west mosul, the heaviest urban combat since world war ii had so weakened the structure it could not stand another blast. But how did so many civilians end up in that building . Had they gone there to take shelter . More had they been herded there by isis . Congresswoman, martha mcsally. Isis knows they can use civilians as a defense. Its their air defense system. Reporter late last year, the authority to approve strikes was delegated to officers closer to the battlefield.

It will also investigate whether thousands of internet trolls hired by the russians manipulated the news cycle in swing states spreading what he called fake news about hillary clinton. He said the investigation would be fair and impartial. Have you personally coordinate with the white house at all . No, sir, i have not. And its the relationship and the trust we have.

The federal government has extended the deadline for companies to submit bids to filled the first section of president trumps wall along the mexico border. The deadline was yesterday, but the interior Department Still has not decided what kind of wall it wants or where it will go. Meanwhile, towns all along the border are threatening to sue to stop it. David begnaud is in brownsville, texas, where the wall could split a community right in two. Reporter this golf course has, in the past, been a runway for people coming here illegally. From the other side, thats mexico. They would swim across the rio grande, run up on the golf course and into this cane right here, hiding themselves or their drugs. But the golf courses owners started to cut down the cane and the number of people coming here illegally has dropped dramatically. The new wall may help, but it would divide 700 americans who live right here in this community. With more than 300 acres, the river bed resort is one of the few areas left in brownsville, texas without a border fence. Many of receipt tiritirees who want to keep it that way. Its not needed. Border patrol is here all the time, think launch their boats at our boat ramp and theyre here in 20 seconds. Reporter they think the money would be better spent for Law Enforcement. They need better technology. Better camera, maybe more drones. Reporter a treaty with mexico prohibits anything that could obstruct the rio grande. S so when the bush built its fence it wanted to do it right in the middle of river bend. It splits the resort community in half. And you have 200 People Living on this side and 400 of their friends on what becomes the mexican side of the wall. 15 holes on the golf course would become a no mans land between the fence and actual border.

Robots are already reshaping how we live and work, but in silicon valley, theyre even changing how we order out. Carter evans has that story. Reporter when it comes to tech, it takes a lot to turn heads in silicon valley. And this new delivery robot is getting a lot of looks. We encounter huchlds of people every single day here in redwood city. The reactions are probably the best part of our day. Reporter Justin Hoffman is the head of operation for starship technologies. The Company Already has hundreds of robots on the road around the world. Now half a dozen have hit the sidewalks of california to start making food deliveries for doordash. Lasagnas highly recommended. Reporter we ordered from a restaurant about a halfmile away. Were going to put you to the test. Reporter and then followed the robot. So its referencing a map of this area . Yeah. So every time we launch a new city, the robot captures all this information as it goes along conducting mapping. Its got cameras, it looks like sonar sensors there. Exactly. For now its able to drive on its own. Reporter for now, the robot has a human handler nearby and can also be controlled remotely to make sure it stays safe and secure. Its got obstacle detection, if i walk around it, what will happen here . It will stop. Reporter after a restaurant worker packs our order, the robot delivers and unlocks with my phone. Green light means its good to go. Yes. Reporter but they have size limitations and can only travel a couple miles. So doordash owner says these bots are not job killers. Are they going to replace delivery people . No. In fact we zero bosee robots as complimentary. Were taking on the role they cant take on. Tips drive a lot of the value for couriers and delivery people. Reporter so at least for now, the scales are tipped toward humans. Carter evans, redwood city, california. The latest trend in hightech agriculture is vertical farming, and a company calmed aerofarms is leading the way. I paid a visit to an indoor growing facility in newark, new jersey. This is what vertical farming looks like. Arugula, watercress, all growing indoors on shelves stacked seven levels high. They can produce 1. 7 Million Pounds of greens every year. This is to scale. This is to scale. Reporter this is housed in a former newark steel plant, the ceos green machine. It produce 130 pounds more produce than the average field farm of the same size in america per year. But to fully understand this largescale operation, youve got to go back to its roots where it all began seven years ago inside Phillips Academy charter school. Aerofarms prototype was planted in the schools cafeteria as a teaching tool for students to learn the basics of biology, chemistry and nutrition. Essentially, these kids grow the greens for their schools salad bar. I think growing food every day and seeing it, i understand and have a better taste and a better understanding for it. Reporter you appreciate it. Appreciate it a lot more. Reporter the technology is called aeroponics. Proprietary information. Those are called trade secrets. Yes, i know. Reporter but as she explained it to us, this process needs no soil, no sun light and uses less water than convention conventional farming. Were misting it. So the water comes up and hits like the ceilings. Reporter hits them with a newt rentrich solution that allows the plants to take root, this l. E. D. Light substitutes for the sun. This was seeded about three days ago. Reporter vertical farming offers higher yields with less land, less times and no pesticides. They can farm indoors in any city, anywhere around the world. From seed to harvest in 16 days, what otherwise takes 30 days in the field, and were able to do that 22 times a year, versus notice fie versus in the field three times a year. Reporter his studies found indoor farms relying on indoor light are not energy sufficient or sustainable. Just because its possible to grow inside a warehouse doesnt mean its a good idea or costeffective. If you do the math, the energy costs just arent what they should be. Reporter investors believe in it. Aerofarms has raised over 50 million from the likes of Goldman Sachs and prudential and received more than 9 million in state and local grants. Why would someone want to buy from you as opposed to a field farmer or a greenhouse farmer . Here were growing in the local community. Thats the supply chain difference. But it turns out that were able to compete on taste and texture. Reporter by adjusting those lights and nutrients, he says they can also make their arugula more peppery, their kale an a little sweeter, which for many of us, parents in particular, might be the biggest selling point of all. Very flavorful. Yes, it is. Reporter goodness. And you guys like your greens . You really eat them . Yes. Reporter they really do. And aerofarms has also made a commitment to this community.
