Inside Edition for Wednesday, October 11, 2023

Israel's airstrikes against Gaza continued today, five days after the attack by Hamas terrorists. The death toll now exceeds 2,100, which according to the State Department, includes 22 Americans. Israel is making good on its pledge of a 'complete siege' of the Gaza Strip. No place there is said to be safe, which is of huge concern to the families of the 150 hostages. As Ann Mercogliano reports, securing their release is a top priority. And while the war is raging in the Middle East, the conflict is reverberating here in the US. Antisemitic incidents are at historic levels, and here in New York, which has the largest Jewish population outside of Israel, the FBI is warning people to remain vigilant in case of lone-wolf attacks. So, could a terror attack happen here? Steven Fabian looks at the possibility. Plus, amidst the horrors of the war, we are hearing inspiring stories of heroes. This young woman is being credited with protecting a community as the terrorists moved in, saving many lives. And she was the darling of the 1984 Olympics, winning gold and America's hearts. But now, 55-year-old Mary Lou Retton is said to be seriously ill and in intensive care. The announcement comes from her daughter, who claims Mary Lou has no health insurance to cover her bills.
