THIS STORY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> THANKS. >>> ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER WILL NOT GIVE IN TO GROWING INTERNATIONAL PRESSURE, CALLING FOR HIM TO COME TO TERMS ON THE CEASE-FIRE DEAL WITH HAMAS. THESE DEMONSTRATIONS ERUPTED, FOLLOWING THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT ANOTHER SIX HOSTAGES WERE KILLED IN GAZA. THEIR BODIES WERE RECOVERED. AMONG THE VICTIMS IS THE ISRAELI AMERICAN CITIZEN. ON MONDAY, HIS MOTHER GAVE AN EMOTIONAL SPEECH DURING HIS FUNERAL CEREMONY ABOUT HER JOURNEY OVER THE LAST 332 DAYS. >> TERROR, ANGUISH, DESPERATION, FEAR. WE BECAME CERTAIN THAT YOU WERE COMING HOME TO US ALIVE, BUT IT WAS NOT TO BE. AND I KNOW YOU ARE NO LONGER IN DANGER. >> THE U.N. IS RUSHING TO DISTRIBUTE POLIO VACCINE. THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION SAYS THE VACCINATION EFFORTS HAVE REACHED MORE THAN A QUARTER OF THE CHILDREN TARGETED IN THIS CAMPAIGN. THEY AGREED TO PAUSES, ALLOWING WORKERS TO TRY TO STOP THE SPREAD OF THE DISEASE. CBS NEWS CORRESPONDENT IS IN TEL AVIV WITH MORE ON ALL OF THIS. >> WELL, PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU IS PUSHING BACK TO AGREE TO A CEASE-FIRE DEAL WITH HAMAS, FOLLOWING THE KILLINGS OF SIX CAPTIVES IN GAZA INCLUDING THE 23-YEAR-OLD ISRAELI AMERICAN. AND THIS IS AS TENS OF THOUSANDS OF ISRAELIS TOOK TO THE STREETS TO DEMAND NETANYAHU BRING AN END TO THE WAR IN GAZA AND FREE THE REMAINING HOSTAGES IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE RARE. ADDRESSING THE NATION, ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS. BUT HIS TONE QUICKLY SHIFTED, SAYING HE WOULD NOT GIVE IN TO PRESSURE. DESCRIBING AS THEY MUST RETAIN CONTROL OF THE PHILADELPHIA CORRIDOR. THIS IS A FARROW STRIP OF LAND ALONG THEIR SOUTHERN BORDER WITH EGYPT THAT IS USED TO SMUGGLE WEAPONS. AN ALLEGATION THAT BOTH EGYPT AND HAMAS WILL DENY, WITH THEM SAYING THERE WILL BE NO DEAL UNLESS THEY WITHDRAW. NOW SPEAKING TO REPORTERS OUTSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE, BIDEN SAYS IT WAS CLEAR NETANYAHU ISN'T DOING ENOUGH TO END THE WAR TO SAY THEIR LAST GOOD- BYES. HIS BODY WAS RECOVERED FROM A GAZA TUNNEL ALONG THE OTHER HOSTAGES. AND THEY FOUND ALL WERE SHOT DEAD WITHIN DAYS OF BEING BOUND. AND AS THE WAR ON GAZA RAGES ON, AT LEAST EIGHT PALESTINIANS WERE KILLED IN THAT ISRAELI STRIKES AS THEY WERE TRYING TO BUY BREAD. THIS IS AS THE U.N.'S CAMPAIGN TO VACCINATE 640,000 PALESTINIAN CHILDREN AGAINST POLIO CONTINUES. BUT STILL THE PRIME MINISTER CONTINUES TO BE CRITICIZED WITH THE OPPOSITION LEADER CALLING IT UNFOUNDED POLITICAL SPIN AND SAYS THEY RELY ON THE FORCES REMAINING IN THE PHILADELPHIA CORRIDOR AS NO RELATION TO REALITY. ERROL? >> THANK YOU FOR THAT. >>> SCOTT MACFARLANE JOINS US WITH MORE ON THIS. HE SAYS HE DOESN'T THINK HE IS DOING ENOUGH TO GET A HOSTAGE DEAL DONE, BUT SPECIFICALLY WHAT MORE DOES THE WHITE HOUSE WANT TO SEE FROM NETANYAHU? >> Reporter: THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION AND THAT CRITICISM WAS TO PUT IT MILDLY, MUTED OR LESS THAN DECLARATIVE WHERE THEY WERE ASKED IF THEY THINK NETANYAHU IS DOING ENOUGH. HE ANSWERED WITH JUST ONE WORD, NO. THE PRESSURES ON NETANYAHU IN ISRAEL ARE NOT THE ONLY PRESSURES THAT HE'S FEELING INTERNATIONAL PRESSURE TO EITHER CHANGE THE TRAJECTORY OR CELEBRATE THE TRAJECTORY OF THESE CEASE-FIRE AND HOSTAGE RELEASE TALKS. HE'S GETTING IT FROM THE HOSTAGE FAMILIES, GETTING IT FROM THE U.S. OFFICIALS. HE'S GETTING IT FROM THE POLITICAL FIGURES, INSIDE THEIR OWN NATION. WE KNOW THAT THE PRESIDENT WILL CONTINUE TO EXPRESS OPTIMISM WHEN WE ASKED YESTERDAY WHY HE THINKS THIS LATEST EFFORT WILL BE DIFFERENT THAN THE PREVIOUS EFFORTS. HE SAID HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL AND THEY SAY THEY ARE WORKING HARD AT THIS. WE FOE THEY MET IN THAT WHITE HOUSE SITUATION ROOM YESTERDAY. THE PRESIDENT, THE VICE PRESIDENT, AND THE KEY MEMBERS OF THE HOSTAGE NEGOTIATION TEAM. BUT AT THIS POINT, IT IS OPTIMISM. IT IS ASPIRATION WITH LITTLE CONCRETE PROOF TO SHOW THESE LATEST EFFORTS, THE LATEST PROPOSAL HAS ANY CHANCE OF BEING MORE EFFECTIVE THAN THE PREVIOUS EFFORTS. >> AND SCOTT, FROM WHAT YOU CAN TELL, ARE THEY CONSIDERING ANY SHIFTS IN POLICY OR SUPPORT IN ORDER TO APPLY NEW PRESSURE TO ISRAEL? AND THEY ARE ALSO WAGING THE CAMPAIGN IN THE WEST BANK, SEPARATE FROM WHAT'S HAPPENING IN GAZA AND PRESSURE FROM THE NORTH AND LEBANON AS WELL. >> THERE ARE MULTIPLE REPORTS OF THE LAST MAKE IT OR TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT DEAL OR PROPOSAL THAT THE U.S. IS BEHIND ALONG WITH THEIR PARTNERS. PUT THOSE REPORTS ASIDE FOR THE MOMENT. AND THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF EFFORTS, DIPLOMATICALLY TO CONTINUE TALKS, TO CONTINUE NEGOTIATIONS. WE KNOW THAT BRIEFING THEY HAD IN THE WHITE HOUSE SITUATION ROOM IS NOT GOING TO BE THE LAST ONE. BUT IN TERMS OF CHANGES AND STRATEGY OR CHANGES IN APPROACHES, NETANYAHU IS MAKING THE ARGUMENT BACK HOME THAT WEAKENS HIS HAND. IF THE U.S. QUESTIONS HIS INTEREST, HIS TECHNIQUES, IT WILL GIVE HAMAS MORE LEVERAGE AT A TIME WHEN THEY WILL NEED NO MORE LEVERAGE. WE KNOW THERE'S AN ENHANCED URGENCY EACH DAY ESPECIALLY WITH THE MURDER OF SIX HOSTAGES THIS WEEKEND. AND THERE IS AN URGENCY FOR A DEAL. IT'S JUST NOT CLEAR THERE IS
