7:05 am
how much is now saying that they will not and you know the conditions for releasing more hostages will not be the same as with the previous uh, hostage for prisoner exchange deal. they actually want a ceasefire to go into effect before they enter talks into handing over more and hostages to is really a thirty's. and then there are there all the various negotiations that are going on in the u. n. d u n. and in the security council, in the security council of the united states, which has often been accused of shielding israel from uh, from uh, having to do more it to protect civilians and gaza by view between various resolutions for a possible ceasefire. they are obviously, you know, so far on the side of a israel. so trying to convince the united states to agree to anything that
7:06 am
a country like egypt which wants um, you know, to bypass the inspection mechanism for aid, which has to go through israel is, is very, very difficult to a lot of competing interests right now that feel like they're very, very far away from each other. yesterday, the us secretary of state entity blinking cold on israel to scale back its operation and make its uh, its operation more targeted. is there any indication that is really forces or doing that a or no, i don't, i don't think so. i think so is really government has been trying very hard to show that it is still steadfast and it's in its war and in its goals. and also in the intensity. i mean, various parts of the strip are still coming under constant bombardment, including the southern part which again, initially was where civilians are, were supposed to go for a safety thing be,
7:07 am
is really government. and particularly the prime minister, find themselves in a kind of difficult situation on the other. i'm the one hand, they cannot show a weakness to harm us. so they can't appear to be backing down from their stated goals to eliminate a come us and to bring back the hostages. at the same time, huge pressure from is really society from the families of the hostages that are still believes to be in the gaza strip. is rising every day and getting more intense. and so it's, it's, it's unclear how they can get out of this dilemma, so to speak. because so far, the majority of hostages that have returned back home, not in body bags, not as dead bodies were released as part of a negotiation. and people here are starting to see to see that more and more. of course, these really government will say that the negotiation was a result of the bombardment that the pressure that they put off how much is what eventually led to that negotiation. but it was as a result of
7:08 am
a negotiation non the less they weren't rescued by is really military now is there was military says it has found a major hum us command center in garza city, a which it says was used by i'm us as leaders. what more can you tell us about the what we know about this is of course, what is really a defense forces a tell us we don't have into the independent access to these a tunnels or facilities or command centers to be able to verify that information coming from the idea of but what it has says is that it's just as you mentioned, a major hub and that it was used to transport weapons a for how much and support a the group in this operations is thank you very much. that was the, don't use it abraham in jerusalem. so i can look at a few other stories making headlines today. and as well and present nicholas madura
