Reporter train cars packed with bodies were taken away today. No one knows when they will be returned to their families. 282 discovered so far, laid on the ground in the hot sun before finally being loaded into refrigerated rail cars, inspected by a team of dutch Forensic Experts who arrived this afternoon and must identify each individual. I have now seen the bodies. We are starting with the identification process. Thats very important to the relatives. Reporter how long will it take, i asked. I dont know.

The militia had promised to release the planes black boxes seized friday, but tonight the handover deadline came and went. But a full four days since the crash wreckage still littered the countryside. Peoples bags appear to have been opened. And what cleanup there is is basic. With just a car and a bit of rope theyre trying to haul some wreckage out of the water. They bring in an old fire truck and then finally the only crane around. Its a torn section of wing. Independent International Investigators. Reporter amid International Outrage tonight the malaysian Prime Minister says the rebels have agreed safe access to the site. But still tanks on the street making it far from clear when the investigation will truly begin. Tonight, those black boxes have finally been handed over by the prorussian rebels, but today here in donetsk there was sniper fire and shelling, chaos that greeted those International Investigators when they arrived here this afternoon. Brian. Keir simmons back in donetsk, ukraine, starting us off tonight. Thanks. The u. S. Says it has hard evidence now pointing the finger of blame at russianbacked rebels including satellite images of the russianmade missile being launched from russian separatist territory. In washington today president obama confronted Vladimir Putin challenging him to stop russian separatists from destroying evidence at the crash site. Given its direct influence over the separatists, russia and president putin in particular has direct responsibility to compel them to cooperate with the investigation. That is the least that they can do. For his part, putin finally broke his silence saying International Experts should be able to work safely at the crash site. But his Propaganda Machine continued to blame the ukraine government in kiev and the u. S. , even saying ukrainian fighter jet was in the area when the malaysian plane was shot down. Something u. S. Intelligence says is not true. And far from the crash scene tonight lets remember the ongoing anguish of the families of the 298 people who perished onboard. Husbands and wives, sons and daughters, a family of five including young children, scientists, students, pictures of some of them now emerging including a mother and son who were headed for vacation who took and then posted a photo moments before takeoff.

Now on to the other big story we continue to follow tonight, the withering ground assault going on in gaza with the death toll there now topping 570 in addition to 27 israelis killed. There are international demands for a ceasefire, but the barrage is showing no signs of letting up. Our chief Foreign CorrespondentRichard Engel is in gaza for us tonight. Richard, good evening. Reporter good evening, brian. Palestinian sources tell us that tomorrow there could be a fivehour humanitarian ceasefire. If it holds and israel hasnt confirmed it, it could potentially pave the way for a more permanent agreement. And that would be welcome by many here in gaza. These are the final moments for ten palestinian fighters, dressed in israeli uniforms this morning they ambushed and killed four israeli troops. Here they are trying to sneak back into a tunnel to escape. Theyre fired on and killed. Two militants may still be on the loose in a nearby israeli kibbutz. Theres panic as the search goes on. The militants are never found. Israel is finding the fight in gaza tougher than it expected. The militants better trained, streets boobytrapped. Their tunnels extensive. So israel is using its heavy weapons. Artillery and air strikes pounding the densely populated gaza strip. The injured continue to arrive at gaza citys main hospital. This services hundreds of thousands of people. And its overwhelmed. Upstairs is the childrens ward. This 10yearold was so badly hurt by israeli fire she cant talk. Her younger sister lies next to her. The doctor tickles her feet. Maja cant feel it. She is completely paralyzed. He tries to comfort her. She doesnt know her mother and two sisters died in the blast that left her frozen in this bed. He says they cant help her here. Our facilities here is not so sophisticated in cases like this. Reporter he heads to the er, children on gurneys seem to be everywhere. This is a palestinian child. Guilty of the most horrible crime to be born palestinian in gaza. Reporter this ground offensive has lasted only a few days. Already hundreds are dead and thousands wounded. And just tonight, brian, israel struck an Apartment Building here in gaza city when rescue workers moved into the building, the building collapsed on top of them. At least 20 people were killed. And its just one more event that shows how important the ceasefire could be. Our chief Foreign CorrespondentRichard Engel in gaza city for us tonight. Richard, thanks. In israel tonight, thousands of people crowded into the Military Cemetery in the seaside city offering comfort to the family of Sergeant Sean carmeli, a 21yearold fought for israel but raised in the u. S. He was one of two americans killed this weekend while serving in the idf, the Israeli Defense forces. Last night in l. A. A candle light vigil for max steinberg, a sharp shooter in the israeli army. There are close to 2,000 americans serving right now in the israeli military. Earlier today we spoke with israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu who is under increasing fire for the civilian deaths weve seen in gaza while insisting he must defend his country from relentless rocket attacks. You know, at a certain point you say what choice have you got. What would you do . What would you do if american cities, where are you sitting now, brian, would be rocketed with absorbed hundreds of rockets . You know what youd say . Youd say to your leader, a mans got to do what a mans got to do and say our countrys got to do what a countrys got to do. We have to defend ourselves. We try to do it with minimum amount of force or with targeting military targets as best as we can. But well act to defend ourselves. No country can live like this. Lets talk about the civilian deaths. Last night our Network Aired scenes of the largest hospital in gaza having to turn away dead bodies at the hospital morgue. There was no more room. Youve seen the widely chronicled story of the boys on the beach in gaza who were killed. How does it strike you as a father, as a human being . Its very saddening to see any of these civilian deaths is terribly saddening. We regret every one of them. And we dont seek to have even one civilian death. Were targeting hamas terrorists. I can tell that we opened up a hospital, humanitarian Field Hospital on the edge of gaza. And hamas doesnt let the people come there. Theyre hiding rockets in hospitals, theyre hiding arms in hospitals, theyre shooting from hospitals. So they just dont care. I mean, they break every norm in the book. Every rule in the book. Committing triple war crimes, targeting civilians, hiding behind civilians, piling civilians in places where theyll be put in harms way. I think to the extent theres any blame it should be laid squarely to hamas door because these are not symmetrical conditions. It is the situation, mr. Prime minister, that civilians are dying in droves, that weve seen pictures of children wandering the streets of gaza no longer with homes to return to. Esident just this morning called again for a ceasefire. Are you willing to talk to hamas in any form . And what are you willing to agree to when secretary kerry gets to work there . Well, weve agreed three times, as i said, to successive ceasefires. And i think the most important initiative. And really the only initiative is the Egyptian Initiative supported by the arab league, supported by the palestinian authorities, supported by israel, supported by the u. N. If hamas wants to end this, they could have supported it. I think kerry john kerry, will come here, and i think he should stand behind this initiative. If people want to end it, it could end. Part of our conversation with israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu from earlier today. In response to our conversation with the Prime Minister, hamas tells nbc news in a statement tonight, it is netanyahu and his army of war criminals that have targeted and continue to target innocent and defenseless civilians. As for hamas, every single israeli killed by its fighters or its rockets except one have been soldiers in uniform, on duty, fully armed and on the battlefield. End of quote from hamas. The full version of our interview is on our website tonight. Another big story in this country tonight, a massive fire fight going on in Washington State where ten wildfires are now burning out of control. More than 100 homes have been destroyed, a major effort is underway there to save more homes from going up. Nbcs jacob rascon is in alta lake, washington, for us tonight. Jacob, good evening.

Tonight, the first loss of life, a 67yearold man died trying to save his own home. On the front lines crews work to protect what is left.

The fire is now 2 contained. 1,700 firefighters on the ground including the Air National Guard and more fires on the way.

Especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. I was taking warfarin but wondered, could i focus on Something Better . My doctor told me aboutliquis for three Important Reasons. One, in a Clinical Trial eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. Two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. And three, unlike warfarin theres no routine blood testing. [ male announcer ] dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Those three Important Reasons are why im shooting for Something Better. Eliquis. [ male announcer ] ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you. Start a team. Join a team.
