Israel allows some aid into Gaza as it intensifies strikes

The Israeli military allowed humanitarian aid into Gaza for the first time in more than 11 weeks. It came after Britain, France and Canada threatened to sanction Israel if it did not provide assistance. Israel also ordered Gaza’s second-largest city evacuated, part of a new ground operation that Israel says will not only clear Hamas, but also hold “all of the Gaza Strip.” Nick Schifrin reports.
