"she should be ashamed of herself" trump said of james, who spoke outside the court. >> the numbers don't lie. and mr. trump obviously can engage in all of these distractions, and that is exactly what he did. >> reporter: but amid the clashes, trump notably knowledge that he has a hand in his properties evaluations, saying "i would look at them. i would see them. and i would maybe on occasion have some suggestions." asked by the state attorney whether he ever thought the values were off, trump said "yes, on occasion. both high and low." >> norah: and robert costa is back with us after that dramatic testimony. i have to ask you since you're out chief election campaign correspondent, since we are less than a year now before the 2024 election, where do things stand with president biden and donald trump? >> reporter: cbs news latest polling says former president has the edge over president biden, with 51% of the vote. meanwhile, another poll over the weekend showed troubling signs for biden. trump is leading biden in 5 of 6 key battleground states. those states were won by the president in 2020. >> norah: robert costa, thank you. turning now to the war between israel and hamas, the israeli military says it's cut off gaza city, essentially splitting the palestinian territory in two. this as the number of people killed in gaza has topped 10,000. that is according to the hamas-run health ministry. cbs's debora patta reports tonight on how the past 24 hours have seen some of the most intense air strikes since the war began. >> reporter: day after day, israel's fiery bombardment of gaza continues. as calls for a cease-fire grow louder, with people around the world horrified at the staggering civilian death toll. secretary of state antony blinken wrapped up his diplomatic tour of the region today after facing open hostility in turkey with an attempted storming of the u.s. turkish military base yesterday. and protests in the west bank during his meeting with palestinian authority president mahmoud abbas. there is growing anger against the united states here in ramallah in the west bank, with crowds chanting "blinken, you've got blood on your hands." israel defense forces say they've circled gaza city, splitting the enclave in two, and claim they have taken control of a hamas military compound that contains underground tunnels. hundreds of thousands of civilians remain in the north, unwilling or unable to leave. when they do, this is what they are running from. 1.5 million palestinians have been internally displaced, says the united nations, and they are escaping any way they can. israel has ordered civilians in the north to evacuate, but the journey south can be just as perilous. people so terrified of being caught in the cross fire that everyone, young and old, this man says, walks with their hands in the air in the universal gesture of defenselessness. "we saw bodies just lying around," this man screams, "please have mercy on us." but mercy is in short supply here. death comes without warning. grief overwhelms the living. this hospital worker was on duty when the bodies of his wife and four children were brought in. this is a crisis of humanity, warns the united nations. as those trapped inside gaza wait for a cease-fire that never comes. and the united nations once again condemned violence on both sides, warning that no party to an armed conflict, norah, is above international humanitarian law. >> norah: debora patta, thank you. we are learning some new details about a phone call between president biden and prime minister benjamin netanyahu today. we are told that the two discussed the possibility of tactical pauses to get civilians out, helping get aid in, and to allow the possibility of a hostage release. also tonight, cbs's david martin is taking a closer look at the weapons that israel is using, as the white house is urging the israelis to protect civilians. >> reporter: president biden called israeli prime minister netanyahu again this morning, telling him it is imperative to reduce civilian casualties in gaza which by u.s. count are skyrocketing. >> many, many thousands have been killed, and many more injured and/or wounded. >> reporter: u.s. officials say the majority of bombs israel has dropped on gaza are unguided, so-called dumb bombs, which are accurate but less precise than satellite guided weapons. these officials say the primary cause of civilian casualties is not the missiles but israel's willingness to strike targets hamas located in civilian neighborhoods. >> this is tragic but we cannot allow hamas in unity just because they hide behind civilians. >> reporter: israel claims it has killed more than 60 hamas operatives, but u.s. officials question whether the military value of the strikes is worth the civilian harm. the israelis have dropped leaflets warning civilians to flee northern gaza. even so, said one u.s. official, civilian casualties are not a priority of theirs. >> how israel does this matters. we will focus as well on steps that need to be taken to protect civilians who are in a cross fire of hamas' making. >> reporter: the u.s. is already shipping israel precision guided 250-pound bombs which have a much smaller blast radius compared to some of the bunker busters that have been used to go after the hamas tunnel systems. israel says it needs more white phosphorous shells which can be used to create smoke screens but also cause horrific burns. a u.s. official says the biden administration is unlikely to grant that request. norah. >> norah: interesting reporting. david martin at the pentagon tonight. thank you very much. secretary of state antony blinken's shuttle diplomacy in the middle east isn't the biden administration's only attempt at avoiding a wider war. we learned that a second aircraft carrier of the uss eisenhower just arrived in the red sea over the weekend. it is headed to the persian gulf. that is a clear message of deterrence and it is directed at iran. and then just yesterday, the pentagon revealing that u.s. nuclear submarine crossed through the suez canal. the fact that we can see these pictures is very rare but it is deliberate. a message. these vessels operate mostly in secret, even called the silent service. this submarine can carry 154 tomahawk cruise missiles. that is a major threat to any adversary. breaking news tonight from the trial in the deadliest maritime disaster in u.s. history, 30

angeles courthouse found diveboat captain jerry boylan guilty of one count of his conduct responsible for the deaths of 33 passengers and one crew member. sharon mcdonagh lost her 26-year-old daughter, the only crew member who died. >> it will never heal our wounds, and a guilty verdict obviously we are pleased with it, but it does not bring her back. and it does not bring the other 33
