Good evening. I'm John Yang. The day after Israel rescued four hostages

from Gaza, Palestinians assessed the high cost of that operation. One of the

deadliest days of the eight-month war.

The Gaza Health Ministry says 274 Palestinians were killed

They tell us to go to the south, come to the center.

far right can be stopped more than it has been so far.
