fly over downtown washington. they are encouraged to do the same here. drone use is banned within city limits. let s talk about the third night. two nights of the drone activity. did you or anybody spot a third night of this drone activity in paris? reporter: we were out until 2:00 a.m. last night, christine, with the cnn team. we did not see any drones. the police told us at this moment they still have no reported sightings of drones after the two consecutive nights of sightings over some of the most recognizable and important landmarks in paris. that s a double-edged sword. on the one hand it gives parians over the issues over charlie hebdo. they are not able to intercept drones. they don t seem to have any evidence to figure out what was behind this. it remains an unsolved mystery.
excellent reporting from karl there. they re probably going to start looking for him right now. this is the same thing that would have happened let s talk about bowe bergdahl when he went missing. immediately everything stops and everyone goes into a search and recovery mode to try to find this guy. you ll see increased drone activity, more commando activity because the best chance of getting him back is getting him back quickly. once they have him for any length of time, they re going to move him to somewhere secure and then we ll probably see some proof of life or video or something later. now is the critical time. if they re going to get him, they re going to get him now. we ll see a flurry of activity. as far as the long-term goal of the israelis, i don t think it will change much. they re committed to going in there and rooting out the rockets and the tunnels. so we ve got two things going on right now. but this does mean that israel s likely to cease, stop its air arsenal whi
