Gaza evacuation orders; Defense Secretary Austin speech; GOP in crisis

The Israeli military warns more than 1 million civilians in Northern Gaza to evacuate “Southwards” as the war with Hamas intensifies, and Hamas militants air-drop leaflets over Gaza City urging citizens to defy the orders. Plus, US Defense Secretary Austin meets with Prime Minister Netanyahu in Tel Aviv, and also delivers a support-bolstering speech alongside his Israeli counterpart. And, the GOP is in crisis after House Speaker nominee Rep. Scalise drops out of the race. Also, the US scrambles to get Americans inside Israel home as protests erupt throughout the Middle East.
