"i was lying on my side with my legs here and my body there," she said. "and a group of guys hit me with sticks on the way." she said militants took away her watch and jewelry as she was led down a vast network of tunnels she said looked like a spider web. but asked why she shook the hand of a hamas gunman when she was set free, she said her captors treated her with softness and "supplied all our needs."

lifshitz also criticized israeli defense forces for not doing more to pick up the threat from gaza before militants launched their attack. lifshitz and cooper's husbands are still believed to be held by hamas along with at least 220 more hostages according to israeli officials. the israeli air force dropped leaflets over gaza today, asking residents to reveal the whereabouts of those hostages in exchange for a reward. this amid some of the israeli military's heaviest bombardment yet in gaza. the idf claiming more than 400 targets were struck over the past day, including anti-tank missile launchers and observation posts, pushing the death toll in gaza to nearly 6,000 according to hamas health officials. on the israeli side of the border, the outbreak of violence has triggered a mass exodus. hundreds of thousands displaced. we visited netivot, which has

crisis is deepening inside gaza with president biden saying efforts to bring aid to civilians are not moving fast enough. just today, eight trucks carrying food, water, and medicine were allowed across the border, the first in 24 hours. but it's not nearly enough to meet demand. hundreds of thousands of israeli troops are positioned along the border ahead of an anticipated ground invasion that appears to be on hold for the moment in order to buy time for hostage negotiations. israel has increased the barrage of air strikes with the hamas-run gaza health ministry saying it suffered its single deadliest day of the war. secretary of state antony blinken today warned iran that the u.s. would respond if they or their proxies use the conflict to attack americans. this as the pentagon announced that iranian-backed militias have targeted u.s. troops in the middle east at least 13 times in the past week with rocket and drone attacks. and we learned just a short time ago, at least two dozen u.s. service members were hurt. we have team coverage, and cbs's

"i was lying on my side with my legs here and my body there," she said. "and a group of guys hit me with sticks on the way." she said militants took away her watch and jewelry as she was led down a vast network of tunnels she said looked like a spider

web. but asked why she shook the hand of a hamas gunman when she was set free, she said her captors treated her with softness and "supplied all our needs." lifshitz also criticized israeli defense forces for not doing more to pick up the threat from gaza before militants launched their attack. her grandson told cbs news she came back walking and waving to everyone. >> we'd been expecting the worse, and as always, she just proved us that she can survive everything. >> reporter: lifshitz and cooper's husbands are still believed to be held by hamas along with at least 220 more hostages according to israeli officials. the israeli air force dropped leaflets over gaza today asking residents to reveal the whereabouts of those hostages in exchange for a reward. this amid some of the israeli military's heaviest bombardment

likely couldn't survive a vote on the house floor. some were opposed to his previous votes certifying the 2020 election while others claimed he was too moderate to be speaker. former president trump also weighed in, calling emmer a republican in name only and said electing him would be a tragic mistake. republicans are now going back to the drawing board to try to elect a new candidate. all this as a government shutdown looms next month and the house now 21 days without a speaker, unable to do its business. norah. >> he was just the nominee for just a few hours. nikole killion, thank you. there's a lot more news ahead on the "cbs overnight news." we made it! bmo has arrived.

about a half hour into the flight, the pilots told investigators emerson threw off his headset and pulled red fire handles like these that can cut off fuel to the engines. one of the pilots said he wrestled emerson away from the controls and asked him to leave the cockpit. police say emerson told them he did it because "i thought i was dreaming, and i just want to wake up." >> fear went through our bodies. >> reporter: passenger paul stephens was one of 84 on board. >> i've flown a lot in my life, and i had been scared once before, and yesterday was the second time. >> reporter: while in the back of the plane, court documents say emerson asked to be handcuffed but then tried to open an emergency exit door. police arrested him when the plane landed in portland. airline captain lauren einsetler. >> the crew that was operating this flight did an excellent job being able to actually challenge him, get him away from the controls, and subdue him and be able to get him into the back of the aircraft. >> reporter: during tonight's

case, providing detailed testimony and possibly moving toward an immunity arrangement with prosecutors. this all comes as trump faces continued legal woes in georgia. >> i look back on this whole experience with deep remorse. >> reporter: in a tearful turnaround, former trump campaign lawyer jenna ellis admitted to making false statements that the 2020 presidential election was fraudulent. >> if i knew then what i know now, i would have declined to represent donald trump in these post-election challenges. >> reporter: ellis became the third attorney associated with trump to accept a plea deal and could testify against him in the future. she blamed rudy giuliani and others for pulling her into a conspiracy. >> what i did not do but should have done, your honor, was to make sure that the facts the other lawyers alleged to be true were in fact true. >> reporter: meanwhile, trump was part of a dramatic standoff today in a new york courtroom as michael cohen, his former fixer, sat across from him and accused trump of fraud. >> how does it feel to see donald trump again?
