u.s. airlines are closely following the investigation into the crash of a passenger jet off indonesia today. the type of plane involved is new and it is used by several domestic airlines. chris van cleave is following this. >> reporter: as bodies, pieces of the plane and items like this wallet are being collected from the surface of the java sea, investigators' focus on finding lion air's black boxes. the voice and data recorders may hold key clues as to why the brand-new 737 max with 189 people crashed minutes into its flight. no americans were on board. indonesian officials say they do not believe anyone could have survived. lion air 610 took off from

jakarta's airport at 6:20 a.m. it climbed then dropped roughly 500 feet later. the pilot requested permission to turn back to the airport where the plane plummeted downward at 400 miles an hour. on sunday the same aircraft experienced a similar drop in altitude after taking off from bali, and was flagged for maintenance, which lion air said was completed. >> clearly the incident that occurred prior to this flight is very important because it may have suggested that whatever maintenance was done was not adequate. >> reporter: the max is the newest version of the 737. boeing has delivered 219 so far, 45 to u.s. airlines. more than 4700 have been ordered. this is the first to crash. but it is not the first safety issue for lion air. we counted more than a dozen incidents, including this 2004 crash where 25 people died.

this is what the divers are looking for, the black boxes. they're typically in the tail section and they should have information from both of the flights in question. united american and southwest have all been in touch with boeing today, but say they plan to continue flying the 737 max. jeff? >> chris van cleave, thank you. still ahead here tonight, parents march

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." >> hi, everyone, and welcome to the overnight news. i'm demarco morgan. president trump will travel to pittsburgh today, scene of the worst anti-semitic attack in history. 11 people were gunned down and killed in what's being called the pittsburgh synagogue massacre. the suspect in the case, robert bowers, was hauled into a courtroom in a wheelchair to face a long list of charges. prosecutors say they will seek the death penalty. david begnaud begins our coverage. >> it was interesting because he waived his right to have the judge tell him what the penalty could be if he gets convicted. life in prison or execution. >> we have four down in the atrium at this time. >> reporter: two days after the slaughter at the synagogue, the man accused of the massacre appeared in court, shackled and in a wheelchair.

he was formally charged with killing 11 people in what has been called the deadliest attack on jews in u.s. history. bowers was surrounded by u.s. marshals and only said yes to the judge when he asked him if he understood the charges against him. >> multiple shots fired. >> reporter: the 46-year-old bowers was shot and wounded in a gun battle with police on saturday. it has forever changed this tight-knit jewish community. >> three additional victims in the basement, two rescued. >> reporter: the massacre lasted about an hour. the people killed died within the first five minutes. bowers killed six people in the atrium, two of whom were brothers. then he entered the main sanctuary where he shot five congregants who were still sitting in their pews, killing four and wounding another. he then made his way to the basement where four members of the new life congregation were just starting to pray. two others were in the kitchen. they heard the gunshots and hid in a supply closet.

when the shots subsided, another congregant, melvin wax, opened the door and became the final casualty. >> we're under fire. we're under fire. >> reporter: police intact cal gear encountered bowers as he was attempting to flee. >> we are pinned by gunfire. he is firing in the building with an automatic weapon. >> please send -- up here. >> >> reporter: dr. keith murray is part of the s.w.a.t. team. he made entry and found some of the deceased individuals with gunshot wounds to the back of their head. >> initially there were five bodies in there. we start today survey them and found one was alive. i think she was just in such shock. i don't think she was aware she was in shock. she was holding onto one of abiliz ayelpe who was officer was down.t >> he was saying obviously, i've been shot, it hurts, but he was just fully w shot multiple plac so it looks like he took one

round to the head, it actually went through his helmet. i mean, he was going to die if we were not there. >> reporter: six people were wounded in the mayhem, including four police officers who were being hailed tonight as heroes. synagogue shooting suspect robert bowers' online posts and reposts were filled with hate, referring to jews as the children of satan and both jews and muslims as filthy and evil. his posts were on gab.com which bills itself as a haven for free speech, but critics say it is a gathering place for white nationalists and neo-nazis. additional sites like 4 chan and 8 chan ask reddit also draw racists and anti-semitic rants. george with the antidefamation league said his group alone monitors dozens of social media platforms and h platforms have become the mechanism of choice for individuals to share and disseminate vitriolic anti-semitic propaganda.

>> reporter: most of bowers comments were protected by the first amendment. before he said, screw your optics, i'm going in. both local and federal law enforcement agencies work with companies like facebook and twitter to flag any speech which poses a threat. but there is a limit to what the police and the fbi can do. ron hosko, former assistant director of the fbi, says the first amendment and justice department guidelines prevent the fbi from monitoring social media without investigative cause. >> they are aware. their ears are open. they are certainly engaged with federal state, local, law enforcement. but there is no fbi component that is the social media police watching all that we say and do. >> reporter: we checked and found that last year, there were more than 16 million tweets involving hate speech. that far outnumbered tweets mentioning the superbowl and the television show, the "game of thrones." president trump had no public events today.

instead, he dispatched his press secretary for a white house briefing tinged with sadness. >> we all have a duty to confront anti-semitism in all its forms, and everywhere and anywhere it appears. >> reporter: but it then became combative as sanders was asked to defend the president's tweet this morning, calling the fake news media the true enemy of the people. and alleging it is the cause of great anger in our country. >> no, the president is not placing blame. the president is not responsible for these acts. the major news americas' first public statement was to blame the president and myself included. >> reporter: that is not true. sanders continued. >> that is outrageous that anybody other than the individual who carried out the crime would hold left-leaning jewish group and signed by more than 40,000 called on the president not to travel to pittsburgh until he denounces white nationalism and the violence it inspires. last night, tree of life synagogue rabbi jeffrey meyers had a message for all

politicians. >> ladies and gentlemen, it has to start with you as our leaders. [ applause ] >>? other news this morning, the man accused of sending package bombs had a court date. cesar sayoc was held without bail as yet another package bomb was found addressed to cnn. manuel bojorquez has this story. >> reporter: in court, a handcuffed cesar sayoc was soft-spoken and even appeared to become emotional at stiemz times. a stark contrast from the man. a package was intercepted in atlanta addressed to cnn headquarters. it would be at least the 15th potentially explosive device sayoc is accused of mailing to omcs of president trump. cbs news has learned the suspect had a list of more than 100 others, mostly politicians and media figures. investigators say sayoc's van covered in pro trump stickers was his home and bomb lab. authorities say none of the

devices had a trigger mechanism and sayoc said he never intended to harm anyone. sayoc is an ardent supporters of the president. film maker michael moore released this footage of him at a rally in florida last year. debra works at a pizza restaurant sayoc once worked. in your view, these weren't just political views, it went beyond that? >> it went to pure hatred, yes. pure hatred. >> reporter: surveillance video obtained by a miami station show sayoc reading newspapers at a sfrip club just hours before he was arrested friday. daniel aaronson represents sayoc. >> we don't know what they have yet. that is up to them to prove it. >> reporter: tonight the joint terror task force is notifying people whose names are on the alleged target list found in sayoc's van, and authorities warn other packages may still be out there. sayoc is scheduled to be back in court friday. >> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. ♪

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." >> president trump came to office promising he had a military plan to defeat isis in 30 days. 20 months later the battle is almost won, but much of the fighting has been done by america's allies and the kurds. she brings us up to speed. >> reporter: last october isis lost control of the city of raqqah. its headquarters for more than three years. we were there as the city shuttered, pummelled by more than 4,000 u.s. coalition air-strikes.e civilians who cou to safety. while isis snipers and bombers lurked inside this splintered buildings of a ghost town, covered in the stench of death.

when we returned this past june, there were signs of life. families coming home. taxis running in the streets. and residents rebuilding as best they could. it was there we met lela mustafa, a 30-year-old woman in charge of resurrecting this skeleton of a city. is this what victory over isis looks like? born and raised here, she trained as a civil engineer. she was chosen by a group of community leaders to run the new civilian council. and is the closest thing raqqah has to a mayor. this is where isis used to execute people? [ speaking foreign language ] they used to kill innocent civilians in raqqah, put their heads on spikes for days. they wanted to show brutality in order to make people obey them.

>> reporter: isis justified its brutality as the only correct interpretation of islamic law. the same reason the extremist insisted that women cover nearly every inch of their bodies in public. so, last year when isis was still in charge of raqqah, women couldn't show their faces in this city. and now you, a woman, you're in charge of the city. [ speaking foreign language ] it's a challenge, a challenge to the mentality of isis, and a challenge for women to emerge from the struggles of injustice, violence, and exploitation. leila told us many of the syigs who helped defeat isis in raqqah were women, members of a militia group known as the syrian democratic forces. s.d.f. when america was searching for allies on the ground, the s.d.f.

stepped forward to fight and die. block by block, house by house, they became the foot soldiers who took this state out of the islamic state. since its peak in 2014, when isis brought their reign of terror to a swath of land in syria and iraq, roughly the size of indiana, their self-proclaimed caliphate has shrunk to a few pockets in the desert. a senior u.s. military officer told us much of the credit belongs to this man, s.d.f. leader general moslim kobani. he's reclusive in part because he thinks he'll be assassinated. how many soldiers do you have under your command? >> translator: 60,000. >> reporter: how big was your militia when you first started

out >> translator: when i started out with my comrades, there were 30 of us. >> reporter: general ka ban i built his army in syria with farmers, factory workers and students. members of an ethnic minority known as the kurds dominate the militia. for decades in syria, the kurds were treated as second-class citizens. but they have transformed themselves into a disciplined and tenacious fighting force. how many isis fighters have you and your american partners killed roughly? >> translator: it's really difficult to give you an accurate number. but i would imagine the rough number would be around 20,000. >> reporter: you know, general, you come across as quiet and mild mannered, and even a bit shy. and i have to tell you, it's not what i expected of a feared militia leader.

>> translator: thank you. >> reporter: how long do you think it's going to take you to claw back the last remaining pockets of isis territory here in syria? >> translator: we believe toward the end of this year. >> reporter: sources in the u.s. military concur. just outside the town of al-shadadi, we saw american special operations forces working with the s.d.f. to close in on one of the last remaining isis safe havens. around 2000 u.s. troops are serving in s.d.f.-controlled territory. the desert is dotted with american bases. we wanted to talk to someone in charge at the pentagon or the state department, but they both declinedur requts. senators who both sit on the armed services committee, and recently visited syria. south carolinaub lindsey graham and democrat jean shaheen from new hampshire.

the strategy has been, let's defeat isis and we're well on our way there. and this really has happened against very long odds, with very few americans, with very little money. >> the kurds have come forward when nobody else would to help us destroy isis, which is a threat to you, me, her, and everybody else. >> reporter: what do you want to tell the american people about america's partners in syria? >> they're worth investing in. they've done most of the fighting. they've done most of the dying. if they take over, they will work with us. this is a -- good deal taken. >> reporter: the s.d.f. has lost 12,000 fighters according to general kabani, sons and daughters sacrificed in the fight against isis. but they have also gained thef powerful military. and with american weapons and training, have taken control of about a third of syria.

from the tigress river in the east to the euphrates in the west, the rest of the country, after seven years of chaos and civil war, is mostly back in the hands of the syrian regime. five years ago, in your wildest dreams, did you think that one day you'd be partnered with the u.s. military? >> translator: honestly, no. we never thought this would happen and the americans would come here. but it happened. >> reporter: not everyone is happy about america's new-found friendship with the kurds in syria. the relationship infewer yates turkey, a long-standing u.s. ally that now shares a 250-mile border with turkey considers the kurdish forces in syria to be a terrorist organization because of their deep ties to a group blamed for deadly attacks within turkey.

america has a history of partnering up with the good guys, who then turnout to be the bad guys. how can you be sure that's not going to happen here? >> i know what they've done. they like us. we couldn't last 15 minutes if they did not protect us. >> they provide the security for our troops, those forward operating bases that are in that part of syria. it's the s.d.f. who provide the security for our forces. >> reporter: the s.d.f. aren't just protecting american troops. they're also holding several hundred foreign isis fighters captured during the war. we were allowed into one of their prisons and got a glimpse inside a cell holding foreign extremists. one of the s.d.f.'s isis detainees is adrian giho who served three years in prison in his native france for plotting with others to attack the police

and a subway station. back in france, he was also a preacher. the s.d.f. consider giho a dangerous terrorist. he denies it and says he only worked for isis as a translator. a member of the s.d.f. was present for our interview. do you want to go back to france? >> >> translator: yes. >> reporter: and does france want you back? >> translator: no, i don't think so. france's position is they don't take back citizens who were in the islamic state. >> reporter: so, what does that mean? does that mean you could be here for several years, perhaps the rest of your life? >> reporter: it's not in my hands. >> reporter: adrian gihal has not yet officially been charged with a crime. he and other foreign isis prisoners from some 40 different countries are, for the time being, in legal purgatory.

don dahler has the story. >> reporter: believe it or not, the u.s. is one of the most volcanically active countries in the world. and as more people choose to live near those volcanos, there is a growing risk to lives and property. kilauea's devastating lava flow started in may and didn't stop for weeks. geologists say there are multiple factors that make a volcano like kilauea especially threatening. john is a volcanoologist. >> volcanos tend to erupt in a big way and they also tend to be volcanos that have a lot of people and infrastructure nearby, and many airplanes that are typically flying overhead. >> reporter: the chief author of a new report that confirms 18 u.s. volcanos are in that very high threat category. they include four in washington state, including mount saint he.

the volcano there sent an ash cloud 35,000 feet in the air in 1990. it clogged a jet's engines forcing the plane to make an emergency landing. there are three high-risk volcanos in california. when the state's lassen peak erupted in 1915, it erupted three years. the risks are very high. geologists don't know when the next eruptions are going to occur. >> because we're talking about sblo explosive eruptions, we're talking about what could be pulverized rock in the air and this could be wind and falling on people and cities and whatnot. >> reporter: different volcanos pose different threats. while kilauea poured lava for miles, eruptions on the west coast can cause mud floes and spew ash over greater distances. >> because the prevailing winds over north america really blow from west to east, a volcano erupting in the
