israel. holly williams is in southern leal to stlooel sh/* shooel israel and leads us off. >> reporter: benjamin netanyahu says his country is now engaged in a quote, long and difficult war. hamas gunmen smashed their way through the barrier that israel uses to contain palestinians in gaza. the militants designated as terrorists by the u.s. fired waves of rockets into israel. and arrived by sea and even in paragliders. it was a complex and coordinated attack. what followed was a blood letting. this israeli soldier was apparently lynched on camera. civilians were slaughtered on the highways and in the towns of southern israel. around two miles from the border with the gaza strip, hamas

gunmen overran the police station, killing dozens. it's now a charred ruin. minutes after we arrived today, we heard gunfire, and an israeli s.w.a.t. team moved in. the police told us to get down. later the police told us there was no militant. and an israeli citizen had accidently been shot and injured. the nervousness isn't surprising. hamas also took hostages, including women, children, and the elderly. they paraded some of them through the streets of gaza. israel says among them are u.s. citizens. dikla was taken captive along with her family. the militants live streamed it on social media. what do you want israel's government to do to try and bring your sister and her children and her husband home? >> everything. everything they can do. >> reporter: what happened today has never been seen in israel,

only from the scale of the attack, but also by the fact so many remain unaccounted for and so few details have been released about those who've been taken captive by hamas. these heavily-armed hamas fighters forced their way into israel with a plan. to abduct as many israelis, young or old, male or female, civilian or soldier. as part of a coordinated strategy to violently drag captive to the gaza strip. it's estimated over a hundred israelis are now in hamas' custody. they set up a situation room to gather intelligence. families of the missing are being encouraged to come here, a center where they can register details of loved once and provide dna samples. it's something babani green has had to do. she hasn't heard from her 66-year-old father who was

visiting a kibbutz next to gaza since the assault was unleashed. she's been calling everyone she knows, looking for answer, says her partner. what are you feeling right now? >> frustration. we don't know what's going on. no one's talking to us. we can't get in contact with anyone. just want answers, to know where he is. >> reporter: despite the number of israelis believed to be held captive inside gaza, that hasn't stopped israel's military from launching hundreds of airstrikes there in less than two days, toppling buildings, flattening entire neighborhoods and displacing thousands of palestinian civilians. civilians caught between hamas' control and israel's fury. u.s. officials are investigating concerns several americans were killed by hamas as it rampaged through southern israel or may be in their custody inside gaza,

as you know, prime time is full of police shows focussing on the work of crime scene investigators, but it's not only crimes against people who get investigated. connor knighton has more on that story. >> reporter: at this crime lab in oregon a elite team of super sleuths examines evidence from across the world. their cases can get pretty wild. welcome to csi ashland. home of the national fish and wildlife friend wildlife friend forensics laboratory. barry bake irir is the director the lab. >> when we're talking wildlife

crime, i'm assuming that's human. it's not if an eagle steals something from a fox den we're not investigating that. >> yeah, we're looking for evidence of humans committing crimes against animals. >> reporter: there are many different breeds of crime. the lab is run by the u.s. fish and wildlife service and supports the investigation of more than 200 spectekt inspecto in the u.s. quite a bit of the lab's work involves illegal products made from the animals, from coats to purses to sculptures crafted out of elephant tusks. when an agent sees something suspicion, it gets sent in. >> it was a large shipment in miami that was seized a few years ago. where they were attempting to smuggle these and claiming that

it was blue plastics for recycling, where in fact they were painting them to try to disguise the fact that they came from sea turtles, and they were being smuggled. >> reporter: using forensic science, the lab cannot only figure out what something is but potentially where that protected species came from, which, can be helpful when tracking down poachers. officers out in the field work the cases, but they need their evidence to be analyzed here. were have so many different varieties of antelope? >> there are so many animals in the wildlife trade that we need representatives to help identify them when they come as evidence. >> reporter: the lab maintains a giant warehouse of specimens when they need to make comparisons. they have everything from bugs to bison. there are drawers of birds and bones. johnny french is the human in

charge of the collection. >> in here is all of our donated specimens from zoos. this big pile right here is a giraffe. back in the back, there's an orangutan. there's a gorilla. >> reporter: does anybody accidentally leave their lunch in here? >> oh, absolutely not. >> reporter: there is lunch in here, for the flesh-eating beetles who clean the bones before specimens can be added to the laboratory. there's never a dull moment in the world of wildlife forensics. >> i always get to learn something every day. you know the old saying, if you're the smartest person in the room you're in the wrong room. i've never been in the wrong room here. if you have a question, you always have a world-renowned expert can you go and ask. >> reporter: in the exam room, you'll find rebecca kagan. >> basically, i solve mysteries. there's a dead animal, and they want to know how it died.

>> reporter: when wildlife dies under suspicious circumstance, kagan is on the case. sometimes teaming up with co-workers like jessica terrell. an animal might have been electrocuted. if it as because a power company didn't take proper precautions, that could end up being a crime. it might have been poisoned. maybe it was shot. >> a lot of these condors are lead poisoning cases. >> reporter: or maybe it was not. >> the ingested metal. >> reporter: this bird literaly ate lead. it ingested a bullet used to kill another animal. when animal are the victims, clues can be hard to come by. >> unlike a human mysterious death where the neighbor can say yes, i saw them yesterday or they didn't collect their mail, we don't get any of that with wildlife. >> reporter: the team here also gets very little information about how their findings are ultimately used.

and that's by design. they're not told much about the cases so that they're not biassed. >> federal authorities made key discoveries. bones of big cats. >> reporter: some cases are so big they find out anyway. >> this is what the tiger king was doing to his tigers, putting bullets in the brain cage. >> reporter: he worked on tigers that looked similar to this specimen used in the trial which led to the conviction of the man known as joe e exotic. > counts three thrhrough sevf the indictment are for shooting and killing five tigers. >> reporter: made famous in the netflix documentary series "tiger king." doing this kind of work can take a toll. do you find yourself thinking about the life that that animal lived? >> i try not to. it's better not to. it's a hard enough job. it's a rewarding job, but it's hard enough without thinking of what people are willing to do for animals.

>> reporter: there are certainly people who are willing to do almost anything to obtain a rare or endangered animal. the illegal trade in wildlife is estimated to be worth $20 billion a year. but the existence of a lab like this is also evidence of the good people are willing to do for animals. solving cases on behalf of creatures who can't speak for themselves. >> this isn't just a united states problem. it isn't just a country of origin problem for where these animals live. this is a problem that humanity really needs to think about and focus on how we're going to proc
