And backstage. 40 years ago tonight, americas oldest teenager with that brand new idea, turning a stage over to the next generation. Good evening on this sunday night. And as we come on the air this evening, the situation in the middle east reaching a tipping point. Will there be allout war between the israelis and hamas in gaza, orill talks in neighboring egypt help bring an 11th hour truce . On the ground, the casualties are mounting tonight. In ga gaza, women, children among the dead as the israelis were trying to target the home of a key militant. It that were all hit by that missile. Meanwhile, in israel, as families rush to shelters, holes where the hamas rockets have landed. And these images tonight. Israel blocking some of those incoming rockets aimed for its most populated cities, knocked down from the ski. Part of the socalled iron dome. President obama tonight vowing support, saying israel has a right to defend itself, while at the same time, saying a ramp up in military activity in gaza, a ground war, would be bad for both sides. We have a team in the region covering the middle east on the brink. Christiane an may upon and matt gutman in israel. We begin tonight with Alex Marquardt in gaza city. Alex . Reporter good evening, david. This was the deadliest day in gaza since this escalation began. In one incident, 11 people were killed, almost all of them from a single family. This as Palestinian Militants continue firing rockets into israel, the military says almost 1,000 of them so far. The thick smoke of the israeli air strike in the middle of the most densely populated places on earth. This is the house that was hit. It has now completely collapsed, and it really is chaos around here. Two bulldozers, emergency crews, really anybody around, digging through the rubble trying to find anybody who survived. The Israeli Military was hashgting ah ha has rocket maker and hit a house that wasnt his. Those dead included four children and five women. Tempers are now flaring. More than 70 palestinians have been killed in the past five days. The wounded number almost 700. Earlier in the day, israel struck two buildings with hamas and International Media offices. They said they knew journalists were there, but that hamas was yuging the building for operational communications. Six journalists were wounded. This as hamas and other militant groups kept up the onslaught of rockets flying into israel, many of them launched from those populated areas. Gazans are skeptical of any talk of a ceasefire. They told us theyve simply seen too many agreed to and then broken. David . Alex marquardt in gaza city tonight. Alex, thank you. Men while, rockets from gaza are reaching deep into israel. Sending families into shelters. Abcs matt gutman is in israel tonight. Reporter good evening, david. There are thousands of israeli troops massing on the gaza border right now, just a few miles south of me. But theres been no deterrent for the rain of rockets that have slammed into here. Four of them in this town alone, four of them where im standing. In this surveillance video, you see the plume of shrapnel and smoke engulfing the building, a car shredded. Just today over 100 such rockets were lobbed into israel, nearly half intercepted by the iron dome defense system. The Missile System which the u. S. Helped develop has been knocking rockets out of the sky. Instantly, radar detects rockets trajectory, firing an intercepting missile. So far the system has knocked out over 300 rockets, with a stunning 90 kill rate. Israel has authorized the callup of 7 can,000 reserves. Tanks are already massing on gazas border. Another one of the sirens is just going off. This has been happening all day here. Driving around, you see people trying to take shelter under the buildings and im going to pull over right now, too. Some of the rockets get through. This one punched through several stories of this building and into alexs apartment. He didnt notice the sirens. His dog did. Barking and forcing him to leave the room and move, he says it saved his life. I want you to see this hunk of shrapnel. To give you a sense of the asemitry of cost here, the rocket that this case from likely cost about 500. Now, the iron dome missile sent to intercept it, 100,000. David . Matt gutman tonight, thank you. And so, whats next . Lets bring in christiane amanpour, in jerusalem tonight. Great to have you with us on this. And it would seem we are approaching a turning point here. Either a truce or a ground offensive. What are you hearing from your sources as far as whats more likely at this point . Reporter well, david, its obviously incredibly tense and despite the back and forth, though, we do get the impression that a huge amount of effort is being made to try to get a ceasefire. Israeli military officials have told us they feel of the 1,000 israeli air strikes on gaza, they say theyve gone after a lot of the rocket launching capabilities that hamas has, including such things as underground remote controlled rockets that theyve been posting on youtube. And christiane, the israelis have not confirmed they are at the negotiating table, but thats the belief tonight . Reporter that is the belief tonight. Weve been told by very high ranking officials that the negotiations are happening between the israelis and the egyptians. The e gyp dhans on behalf of hamas. And, of course, the United States is involved, trying to get all its allies to have them exert as much possible to get hamas to the negotiating table. That is the effort at the moment but israel says finger is ready and if they have to, they will pull that military trigger. Christiane amanpour, thanks to you.
