Captioning sponsored by cbs this is the cbs evening news with scott pelley. Pelley for five years, the world has been witness to the horrors of syrias civil war. More than a quarter Million People killed, more than 11 million have lost their homes. But the greatest treasure lost was the ancient city of palmyra, a World Heritage site. This week, the assad dictatorship retook palmyra from isis, the bad guys taking it from the worse guys, if you will. Elizabeth palmer reached palmyra today, the First American journalist to enter the sea. Heres what she found. Reporter after 10 months under isis control, who would have believed palmyra could look but up close, there are monumental gaps. For 2,000 years, a roman triumphal arch spanned the entrance. Now the arch is gone, brought down by isis explosives, and the Syrian Army Tells us we cant venture any further into the ruins because the whole place is laced with mines and dynamite. So is the town next to the ruins. A group has come here today to honor the syrian soldiers who defeated isis in battle, but no ones going to be moving back into these houses any time soon. For isis, palmyra was a strategic prize and an opportunity to taunt the world with videos that showed fighters destroying priceless treasures and a mass execution in the roman amphitheater. But one atrocity has left especially deep scars, the execution of mohamed al asads director of an antiquities. He was decapitated and his body put on display. He was so brave, mohamed tells me, and i loved him so much. And his father loved the palmyra museum, his life work now wrecked. Its a wonder this building is Still Standing considering the amount of artillery and russian air strikes that were necessary to take back the town from isis. Everywhere, theres more isis desecration, a whole room full of delicate stone heads, their faces hacked away. And among palmyras greatest losses, the temple of belle, all but the arch blown to bits. And yet, theres hope. Mohamed al asad is already thinking of reconstruction. Where would you even start . Where would you even start, the experts can do it, he says. Just give them a few years. And, of course, an end to this war, which at the moment has just moved a few miles down the road. But, scott, the whole time we were in palmyra, it sounded as if the war was right with us. There were controlled explosions every few minute. The syrian army demining the town, and a team of russian explosive experts is expected tomorrow. Pelley Elizabeth Palmer with the news breaking report for us tonight inside syria. Liz, thank you.

The funnel seen here lifted but is believed to have touched down again several times, going on to strike tulsa as suburbs. Authorities are stillitallying up the number of homes and businesses damaged or destroyed. A prayer group rode out the storm in a church, which lost part of the roof.

Mardi gras is following this. Reporter Donald Trumps campaign requested the Meeting Party rules, and his less help thanconcrete pledge to summit eventual g. O. P. Nominee if its not him. But nothing was resolved. Trump trails in wisconsin and a loss there tuesday would increase the chances the Republican Convention in july would begin without a clearcut nominee. Republican leaders remain anxious about trump as their standard bearer after these comments yesterday to msnbc about what would happen if aof abortion was outlawed. The answer is that there has to be some form of punishment. For the woman. Yeah, there has to be some form. Reporter trump later reversed himself and said punishment would be reserved for doctors. John kasich said today he would turn to the women in his family before he decided if he could back trump as the nominee. But at this point, because of the nature of this election, its going to be its going to matter what my wife and daughters think. Reporter trump in the past has said he was, phenomenal on issues important to women. I will be great on Womens Health issues. I will be so great to women. I have Great Respect for women, and i i do cherish women. Reporter but on top of his abortion comments, trump has dispairnlg female journalists and candidates and defended his Campaign Manager after he was charged with battery for grabbing a female reporter. In general election matchups, trump trails Hillary Clinton by 20 points with women and against Bernie Sanders the margin is 23 point. Trump is also battling history. No republican nominee has won a majority of women voters since 1988. In 2012, mitt romney lost women by 11 points. In our most recent poll, it shows trump with a 57 unfavorability rating, the highest of any president ial frontrunner dating back to 1984.

But we all heard them. Donald trump is showing us exactly who he is and we should believe him. Reporter she also hammered Bernie Sanders, who yesterday called trumps remarks shameful but a distraction from the serious issues facing america. To me, this is a serious issue. applause and it is a very serious discussion. Womens health is under assault across america. Reporter clinton is appealing to moderate and independent women who will be key to a victory in november. Shes also reaching out to younger women who back sanders by more than 30 points. They like sanders populist exphej are not driven by the prospect of the first female president. I can honestly say that my faith in Bernie Sanders is just overwhelmingly more than Hillary Clinton. Me. Reporter to close that enthusiasm gap, clinton paints a scary picture for women if anyone other than herself is president , but for some sanders supporters, thats not enough. I dont really trust exactly what shes saying just because she seems to use a lot of diversion tactics. She doesnt seem as open and as transparent as bernie. Reporter sanders didnt mention trumps comments again today, but, scott, in response to clinton, a Campaign Spokesman called trumps statement an outrage and says sanders has a 100 lifetime voting record defending a womans right to choose. Pelley Julianna Goldman, thanks dispp John Dickerson is here, our cbs news political director and the anchor of face the nation. John, whats the significance of the meeting with trump and the leaders of the Republican Party . Reporter well, in symbolic terms they both had a reason to have this meeting. For donald trump, he said it was a uniifying meeting. Hes had kind of a rough week. Hes in washington. He met with his Foreign Policy leaders today. He met with the Republican Party im not a chaotic candidate. For the Republican Party, even though there are some in the Republican Party who want to deny donald trump the nomination, they have to the committee has to show theyre treating him fairly all the way along, that the process is fair. So they met for an hour. They talked about the delegate allocation process and informed trump of some things he didnt know, that theres a process beyond just getting delegates from the votes. Pelley and there is a strop Trump Movement in the Republican Party that everyone is well aware of. Where is that effort headed now . Reporter thats movement that wants to have a fight at the convention and basically, even though trump gl in with more delegates than anybody else, to take them away from him. The focus of that group is on wisconsin on the fifth of april. Basically, if they can take enough delegates away from trump, it will deny him that 1,237 that he needs. Two other important thingses marco rubio who is out of the race, has said he wants to hold on to his delegation. That means there are fewer that donald trump can grab that would have been unbound if rubio didnt hold on to them. And then finally, the real work those who want to deny trump those delegates, talk to the delegates and saying, if donald trump doesnt get the nomination on the first ballot, vote for ballot. Pelley because theyre only bound on the first ballot. Reporter thats precisely right. Pelley John Dickerson youll have an interview tomorrow with donald trump on this broadcast and on sunday on face the nation. John, thank you very much.
