We have Team Coverage tonight from Israel To Washington and cbss Charlie Dagata i will start us off from the Southern City of sderot. Good evening, charlie. What are you seeing there . Reporter good evening, norah. We are less than a mile from the border with gaza and there have been explosions here pretty much all night, a constant sound of jets and drones, explosions off the distance. Even after weeks of air strikes, whats happening tonight and continues to happen is on another level. Israeli tanks have crossed into gaza. Hamas says they are fighting into locations, as they said, in terms of scale, u. S. Officials tell cbs news this appears to be offensive. The skyline over gaza city lit up in the most ferocious and sustained bombardment the territory has seen since the Israeli Military unleashed its aerial assault on hamas militants nearly three weeks ago. Whether the series of powerful explosions was the precursor to the major Ground Invasion, the israeli Defense Forces would only say Ground Operations were expanding tonight. Warning residents of gaza city to seek saved her conditions, that the idf would persist in id surrounding areas. This is said to show the impact of a bombardment from inside gaza itself tonight. Telecom firms reported that the internet and Cell Phone Services were cut off across the palestinian territory. Todays Heavy Bombardment follows two nights of raids as israeli troops went on the offensive by land and sea. The idf release this video said to show a Naval Commando unit conducting a raid on one of called a hamas terrorist infrastructure. Apparently reaching the shore at one point and engaging in ferocious firefights. That coincided with another nighttime ground attack. This video claiming to show israeli tanks rolling across the border, artillery and aircraft striking antitank Missile Launchers and an operational headquarters. The full force of israeli air strikes dropping whole city blocks, one of 250 targets the idf said they attacked, claiming their aim is the destruction of terrorist tunnels. Hamas also striking back. Sending a volley of rockets into israel, some of which got through the countrys iron dome Missile Defense system, even hitting tel aviv, resulting in a few injuries. Whether or not a fullscale invasion has begun tonight, israel says it remains committed to returning hostages held in gaza during almost three weeks of warfare. Norah and Charlie Dagata is back with us and we can hear some of those air strikes and bombing near where you are. So charlie, what are you hearing from the Israeli Government tonight . Reporter norah, Senior Advisor to the Prime Minister said tonight this isnt just another round of fighting. Hamas will pay for its crimes against humanity, and tonight we are starting that payback, in his words, hamas will feel our wrath tonight. Norah. Norah charlie day geta in sderot. Well, tonight the u. S. General assembly adopted a Resolution Calling for humanitarian truce in gaza. 45 countries of stain, 14 countries voted against it including the United States. Israel says a pause or ceasefire will only benefit hamas. Cbss debora patta reports on the crisis in gaza. Reporter its hard to imagine just how bad things could get when already for the past three weeks, the images have shown one health scape after another. Gaza is fast running out of fuel, water, and medicine. Today aid trucks crossed into the territory, a drop in the ocean compared to the 500 that used to enter gaza every single day. Im the United Nations now warning of possible war crimes, saying its deeply concerned about the collective punishment of the people of gaza following the atrocious attack by hamas which it has also labele a war crime. Massive destruction. Reporter our cbs producer Marwan Al Ghoul who has been reporting inside gaza sends this message. More death and more victims. Everybody knows that this areas high population. Maybe the most high population all over the world. Reporter day after day, israels bombardment of gaza has been relentless. Amidst the ash and the dust, gutwrenching grief is everywhere. This man lost his wife and four children. The grief so raw as he rocks his baby boy, he was just two and a half months old. What did he do, he wails. Did he kill anyone . Did he kidnap someone . There are 229 men, women, and children still being held hostage inside gaza. Hamas has claimed 50 have already been killed in israeli war strikes, a claim we cannot independently verify. But tonight, norah, as this war intensifies, those hostages could be an even more danger than they were yesterday. Norah debora patta, thank you. Israels Defense Minister said today that his country expects the Ground Offensive in gaza will be long and difficult, given the vast network of tunnels used by hamas. Cbss david martin is at the pentagon tonight with more on israels military objectives and the challenges it will face. Reporter Tonight Israeli Artillery Barrage began what u. S. Officials say appears to be a ruling start to the Ground Invasion of gaza. Israeli Ground Forces have crossed into gaza before but only on raids, pulling out of the end of the night. A rolling start is different and retired general frank mckenzie, former commander of u. S. Troops in the middle east, explains how it works. A rolling start will be in operation where you put in reconnaissance forces, you sort of gain a feel for the battlefield, and then pull your main forces and behind it. Reporter the pentagon had and Special Operations and urban combat to advise the israelis on how to do it. He has now left israel. Theyll probably have several lines of advancement into gaza. Israeli commanders will see where theyre having success. The axiom is you reinforce success. Where youre gaining ground, you put more force than behind it. Reporter it sounds sort of like establishing beachheads inside gaza. You should think of it as multiple beachheads all across the front. Reporter and in the underground tunnels which hamas could blow up under the feet of Israeli Soldiers and make block by block fighting even more fallacious. Civilians already suffering under the crushing weight of israeli bombs will be trapped in the middle. Used as Human Shields by hamas and seen as potential threats by the israelis. Norah David Martin Joins us from the pentagon. I do want to ask you about the u. S. Troops have been targeted in the middle east, i understand that the u. S. Launched some retaliatory strikes. What can you tell us about that . Reporter thats right, norah. F16s, American Air Force f16s bombed two iranian Weapons Depots in syria and it was designed as sending a message to iran to tell these militias that have been attacking american troops to back off. Since that attack, there has been one more attack on american troops. But the drone was intercepted and no reports of casualties. Norah david martin, thank you very much. Lets bring in Face The Nation moderator and chief Foreign Affairs correspondent, margaret brennan. Lets talk about the hostages. How does it complicate their Release Question reporter it makes far more completed. The deal fell apart. In addition to the hostages there are five to 600 u. S. Citizens in gaza. Norah how do you think this changes the whole political dynamic in the middle east and now that this latest Ground Operation is starting to expand . Reporter the escalation means there could be Israeli Military casualties that will affect the netanyahu governments choices. Already in recent weeks, the president of the United States has been pressing netanyahu to think of things like defining success and who will next govern the 2 Million People of gaza. Meanwhile, in arab countries, these palestinian civilian casualties which are so hard to see are causing an uproar, even among some of americas partners like jordan. The king of jordan came out and said it creates a dangerous perception that arab lives are less valuable than israeli lives. President biden said the death of innocents is a regretful cost of war. He said on wednesday extremist settlers need to stop attacking palestinians in the west bank. Theres a perception that u. S. Has backed israel and that means americans could be targets. Thats why the State Department has drawn down its presence at some embassies and tonight norah, is telling americans in lebanon to get out now while there are still flights. Norah very delicate situation. Margaret brennan, thank you very much.
