[000:00:00;00] the flight carrying prisoners for what's called the largest swap in decades is just landed in turkey. the you're watching all to 0 life or my headquarters in delphi and jerry, you navigate. the also ahead of the funeral is underway for the top of the commander for odd. sure, good. he was killed in lebanon's capital bind is really or strike on tuesday.
5:01 pm
the supreme leader who's funeral prayers for him. this is political chief as $900.00 a year who was assassinated in tough wrong the defiance from demonstrators police use your guns to disperse crowds at the start of 10 days of protests and nigeria, the hello turkish officials are saying that the largest swap of prisoners from russia in decades is now under way. so this plane recently landed an incorrect reportedly with several of those released on boards. russia is releasing american journalist, human rights activist, as well as a former marine. we have a team of correspondents covering the story for us. we'll get reaction out of washington shortly with rosalind jordan. but we begin and it's tumble with send, i'm comfortable. those send them. what are you so your sources telling you about
5:02 pm
this particular flight or what information are you getting a while the yes, as you have stated, this is the largest prisoner swap operation between united states, russia, and also germany within the last decades then a turkish intelligence, mit has coordinated the negotiations and mediations within those countries and for these prisoners to be swept, swapped according to my sources. at $26.00 prisoners were exchanged in on colorado today within the last one hour among them to wear children. and those prisoners were from 7 different counties and the ride. they arrived in the turkish capital and cut off with several different plans. and some of them have already been transferred to their countries according to the information that i have it 10 prisoners, 2 of them are, children,
5:03 pm
have been transferred to russia. 13 have been transferred to germany and a 3 prisoners have been transferred to the united states. as i said at true care is a proud to be a part of this operation. according to the statements coming from the turkish intelligence, they say this is the largest swap, a prisoner swap within the last decades. and it took a turkish intelligence chief. it brought him color and had maybe a to they have talked with his counterparts. but of course, this is not the 1st time to care has been made. the aging for prisoners swaps earlier between russia and ukraine. again, a turkish intelligence was a mediator and a prisoner handle where it was realized in the capital on, correct. and again, a turkish intelligence was enrolled between russia and united states for nuclear talks. that's why their kitchen thousands is actually
5:04 pm
a little bit fraud to say that they are good in mediating between and difficult countries at difficult times for these kinds of difficult for that are swap operations. 0523. thank you. so watson, i'm, thanks for that reporting frontier key. let's bring and rosen jordan, joining us not from washington dc roslyn. what were you hearing about who's on board that flights as well? the us government is not talking about what is being widely reported, that there is a significant prisoner swap being undertaken between the united states and russia. this is because there's always been this long standing practice in the us government to not say anything that could possibly jeopardize a hand off of people, especially those that the us considers role fully detained until they are actually in the custody of us embassy officials. so we are actively asking for any sort of comment, but you have to understand the us government's breakfast,
5:05 pm
that they have how things go sideways in the past when they've tried to get people out of wrongful detention, not just in russia, but in other countries as well. and so there's basically this side code of silence as we're coming from the us government. it's also worth noting that child, the wall street journal, which is the employer of the journal as of endorse coverage, also has said absolutely nothing, even though it has been launching and conducting a very vigorous public relations campaign to secure his release. since he was 1st detained by the russian authorities and accounts running their birds back in march 2023. again, this is a matter of not wanting to jeopardize anything until people actually have eyes on him. and he's actually in their custody. we also have not yet heard either from your school, but she has family or from the family of poll real and the former us marine who was
5:06 pm
arrested and then convicted back in 2020 again on espionage charges. they have been very vigorously critical of the biting harris administration for not doing more to get poll real and out of russian custody. and so it is noteworthy that we have not heard from them either on thursday, given that this is what something they they have been tam painting for almost from the moment that he was arrested nearly 5 years ago. a rosalie, thank you. thank you so much. the the funeral has been the top commander for odd. sure. good is taking place and loving on right now. so good was killed in an is really are striking the capital bay route on tuesday is ro, accused him of planning an attack. and they occupied joel on heights which killed
5:07 pm
12 people on saturday as the butler denies. and the funeral service for him us as political leader as night, honey year has taken place in iran capital. honey is assassination. and to ron has read united fears of a wider regional conflict. dorsen jabari reports from tyrone a final farewell. it'll be harmony leads, prayers for it, smell honey, a and his body guards killed in the rain and capital on wednesday. thousands poured onto the streets. initial solidarity with the political leader of some us news body was taken from pear wrong university to freedom square, and eventually to measure about airports where it was slow to go hot for his burial . on friday, the 62 year old was a guess. a do you not gratian ceremony of the newly elected president must who would possess sky on it was 10 years, 4th trip to tear on since october. the 7th. and his assassination is being viewed here as
5:08 pm
a work of israel with the help of the united states. washington says he played no part in it and had no prior knowledge of the attack. israel has not commented the time for the occupation to attack without response. he's over, they've done something and they must pay the price, they must be held responsible. america is responsible for this. no crime is committed by the occupation without the criminal america. cd auto reigning official . see the strike on arabian soil as a declaration of war. and they have promised revenge a successful will see the impossible of, of this time around. the response will be different in the last one and phone regional countries in advance about the timing of the retaliation. preventive disaster. but i think this time it's response will be a surprise and it will come up sooner. on april 13th, iran launched more than $300.00 drones and missiles towards israel, in response to an air stripe on its consulate in damascus. 2 weeks before israel
5:09 pm
responded by attacking your wrong air defense systems. you are doing a times nuclear facility. israel honey, is assassination. has once again force raining officials to make a difficult decision. one that's ultimately up to the supreme leader if or on attacks israel again, it's unlikely to act alone. the so called resistance friends, which includes that who sees in yemen, has of a lot and loving all the popular mobilization forces in your off would be expected to take parts, making this critical moments for the middle east door. so safari out to 0 on the is really the army says it can now confirm its killed the commander of how mass is military wing. it says some of these died 3 weeks ago in an attack in the find you in this area in southern gaza. how my says accounts confirmed the reports as a matter for the assembly gaze leadership on the ground engines for that is joining us from dated by the head. central garza to tell us whether our cosign brigades has
