period. palestinians release form is where the presence of expressed their relief and say they face degrading treatment and attention. the not i didn't i left hell and now i mean have been and we're all out of health face to buy latest feed us. they are tear gas towards us. these to count us all our heads were down on the floor. suddenly they would enter the cells and fire gas towards the said bad words at us. there is no food in it. no sweet, no. so there's nothing good not to be used to see the sky 2 small squares are used to say, i hope i will see the sky without the squares. the moment they took us out of prison, i saw the mountains of carmel and the sky mchenry, due to a one bedroom. i do not make and they didn't treat us well. there was no good to no medical treatment. i had symptoms of a stroke liquid around the hearts and also blood pressure problems. i wasn't afraid

of the illnesses. i was worried that my family would know that i got saying, well here my colleague nick spoke to out 0 cost about a need to abraham moves and they'll divide westbank coming the palestinian prisoner police during the november 2023 seas 5. she says the deal has brought hope to many palestinian families. it is been seeing images of these families greeting one another way. the most prominent palestinian prisoner in dispatch is the p. f and p leader and the occupied the west bank a highly da da da. she used to be a member of the policy in parliament, and he was really shocking to see how she looks now with old gray hair. and she used to look always with like her big kelsey black hair. and now you see how the prison has taken its toll on her. she has been in solitary confinement, and that's why she hasn't been giving a lot of interviews. now we've seen lots of cameras, but we've also seen and

a lot of emotional moments of other prisoners being the united with their loved ones, including those who, with at least now for the 2nd time or in the 2nd release. like it at one young boy from jericho. he was released in november of 2023 in the ceasefire then. and now he's been released again. it's really, you know, a seen the many post in comedies across the occupied with bank hope to be a part of because remember, we are looking at the upcoming weeks where more exchanges are expected to happen if the ceasefire takes hold. and a lot of people are waiting, anticipating, hoping that their loved ones are going to be part of the few times that we saw hundreds and hundreds of people out on the streets, didn't weigh. it says the buses left the prison and went through between here and on to remodel. and then at a very late time, all these families can 2 o'clock in the morning is and they were waiting for

a long, long time because the swap was supposed to take place around 14 g, which started just a bit later when these really captives where they need but as we have seen in november 2023, the process of releasing processing and prisoners always came later much, much later in the day, even in these families out in the cold, waiting, anticipating, hoping. and indeed, some of them were concerned that this is, you know, there might have been a problem with the, with the deal itself. so it's so much joy, let's say for the release of the policy and prisoners came out as of to 3 free. just read the campuses reunited with their families. 2 don't sign becca romika 9 and emily demari were kidnapped by him as fights is 15 months ago and held in garza, the total of $33.00 out of about $95.00 captives and you to be released the 1st

phase of the seas 5. do you have a 6 week period? i'm uh, excited and very, very happy to tell you that this evening the 3 kept if that were released to arrive here at the maybe can see i see, but with the consent there. but i'm happy to report that out in stable condition that allows us and them to focus on what is the most important thing for now is uniting with the families that are united with the families. and we will continue to monitor all their clinical condition. this will take a few more days until we complete all the examinations that are needed. observers i left i'll sharif, was among the crowd in gaza when the 3 is ready. captains were released as the i'm now standing at the right square,

where the vehicle's carrying is ready, captives have started to arrive on the same. there were scolded by custom brigade spices, massive crowds from among the guys and have flux to the square. and these exclusive images you're watching on al jazeera, as we speak, we can see also a large number of custom brigade sizes. these are live images of these ready captives. we witness 3 is ready captives inside this vehicle, live images exclusively on al jazeera. and now the 3 is ready, captives disembarking the vehicle and now they're on their way to be handed over the summer. they were handed over to the red cross and then put onto another vehicle headed in the opposite direction. how did the now i'm just in front of the red cross, the vehicle carrying those 3 is ready captives. the vehicle is now moving off to having taken the captives in the house of guys, a city that is the main landmark of the city sariah square. this is exactly where

the 3 is ready. captives were handed over by custom brigade spices to the red cross representatives of the southern, just holding developments from oman, because they said i was banned out 0 from operating within israel itself. a mystery female is really captives release from dogs that have been reunited with their families at a hospital in central israel. these really military had confirmed once they cross the border from gaza into israel, that they were in the hands of his really forces where they went in initial identity check followed by an initial medical exam before they were err lifted to the hospital. once they arrive, doctor said they were actually in pretty good shape so they could delay their medical exams a bit so that they could spend more time with their families. this was a ceasefire deal that was a long time in the making and family members of these captive say that they are happy to have their loved ones back. but this is a ceasefire deal that needs to be seen all the way through past phase one,

past phase 2 and ultimately to phase 3. because that is the only way to ensure the release of the remaining is really captives. it's also worth mentioning that is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu was under a lot of pressure to make this deal happen under pressure by incoming us president donald trump. i pressure by the outgoing bided administration. and also pressure from is really society who had been protesting against his leadership for more than a year, but none the less, this was just the 1st release of captives on saturday. we can expect for more captives to be released. that's the 7 of the ceasefire followed by 3 captives each additional week before. finally, the 6th and final week of the 42 day pause. that is phase one or 14 captives will be released from the central jersey though on the other thing is forcibly display some northern gods. returning home through the rubble. the area has been under siege. remove them 3 months. 15 months, right?

the attacks on gaza have flats and large parts of the policy and territory and displace 1900000 of its 2300000 residents. both i'll colutus in northern gaza with thousands of people displaced by his way. the attacks are returning towards the left of their homes. so today is the 1st day or this is far as is right, the army with a drill full value of the box. and then nothing doesn't slip residence. people know where forced to move from. nothing goes trip to the golden city now on returning to the homes as a cap put in the sea behind you and allow me to slip away. so people started to return to the hose, hopefully a bunny lease. i left you a little. i spent the last 3 months displaced and all shot the district think i lost the truth and i am now going to see how my houses. hopefully i will find a few holes to live behind. i used to live in this building with my family, and my uncles, families look on the agreement about a kind of solo of it. it was

a 5 full building. the building used to host around 50 people, including my 5 of myself and our families. something with them and the sheriff when i also left, as you can see, the house, the whole thing was reduced to rubble on demand that it took a 50 people of my family will live in the streets. schools have also been destroyed . there is no life at all in the case of seeing the area and the northern part of the gaza strip. i bit and uh, hold on. no cool you. then this is a house and all of our neighborhoods, all of it destroyed. even the mosque was targeted and destroyed this even difficult to set up a team to get i am talking through a little a soft hallway neighborhood. where is it on this patient for more than 3 months, for row seemed to be able to evacuated a fleet to the gauze city and behind me, after it was a drew from the smallest and developer who to come hundreds of families address. 2

earning to the homes in july, never for the account has been handled. also bit loud here. as you can clearly see behind me, hundreds of families on the timing white talks was that goes uh, i the most of also call on foot. so the b, b. ok. so how big that is, fine, any i seos for you know, bump things, no more attacks, no more besieging rule evacuation orders. and as you can clearly see, the turn of butler still have concerns about if there have any homes or not. because these way the army destroyed the vast majority of the residential buildings and jo, better if you can on of the box, was the capital with us just data us the fall we neighborhoods, palestine blower al bono is an international lawyer empower. she says now the si, size, and effect accountability must come next. we will likely require international pressure

. i certainly believe there must be accountability we've watched for the last 15 months is real, commit the 1st live stream genocide, assisted with artificial intelligence. and this accountability must be pursued whether it's before international jurisdictions like the international criminal court or before national courts, using the principles of extraterritorial jurisdiction or universal jurisdiction. amount goes, not just for these really leaders, the architects of the genocide like netanyahu, and small church and, and others. but also for the soldiers that enforced and executed the genocide and who filmed themselves in many cases, gleefully caring out the destruction of civilian homes and targeting costing and civilians. but also as well to the countries that were complicit with this genocide, including in particular 1st and foremost the united states. this will really depend on the extent to which israel is pressured by the international community to comply

with, allowing international investigators to enter cause and to do their work. we have seen that israel does not comply with international law on its own, and that in any, in all circumstances, the extent to which it's going to comply results from the extent to which others hold that accountable. and that goes not only for allowing international investigators into gaza, but the extent to which the ceasefire itself is going to be maintained and whether, whether it will be maintained or whether we're going to see after this is and israel's going to go back to dropping bombs, on gauze and continuing its destruction there, you know, it's already destroyed over 90 percent of the infrastructure and gaza. so at this point, you know, i'm not sure what, what is left for it to do in terms of destruction. and i, and i really hope that the international community will hold it to account and ensure that this cease fire is not just the temporary one, but a permanent one in the beginning of the end of israel's illegal occupation.

specially needed deliveries of age have started to go into goals. um the trucks are being passing through the roof of border crossing, counting cumulative, and supplies, and crew to water, food and fuel. deceased wanted to either because $600.00 truckloads of a to be allowed into goes a daily was audio bolden is from unicef, isn't humble. i see you in south western gaza. she says there are tremendous challenges getting immediate a to posting into industry. so the challenges ahead are tremendous. the ceasefire is a very, very critical 1st step that is necessary to save children's lives. but when it comes to there, the enormous suffering and the total deprivation that they face the ceasefire on its own, isn't going to take that suffering a way that there's tremendous challenges here inside god. so the operating environment for humanitarian organizations like unit stuff and others simply hasn't

been there uh, throughout this war the, the total in security. but also the destruction of infrastructure here in gaza has made it extremely difficult for us to bring supplies in, but not just also to be able to distribute them um to families in need. throughout garza, the 8 that needs to enter gaza immediately really stretches across different areas . we talk about shelter, warm shelter, because people live in, make shift tens that don't keep families safe, safe and protected against the cold. they don't keep families warm, we need food and nutrition items to come in. hunger has been increasing throughout guys a very severe hunger, and there's tens of thousands of children with acute bell nutrition. we need some items to repair the water infrastructure system here, cuz left to clean water is virtually non existent. we need hygiene items for,

for people to be able to wash themselves even things like a bar of soap. and that's become hard to find. and when it isn't, the market is usually not affordable. um, but some of the 8 that children and gas i need is no 8 that we can bring onto trucks. every single child in gaza today is deeply, deeply scarred and traumatized by what they've witnessed. they've gone through the things that no child should ever have to witness the still ahead lounge as they were destroyed, childhood music poured on the total 15 months of his rose was taking on post them into the head lower. the story across north america is all about the dangerous, bitter cold. thanks to an optic blossom moving from the north down to the south,

and it's only gonna get cold. so we think a lot of winter weather as one storm system moves off the eastern seaboard behind that we're going to see more lake effect snow for the great lakes. some wintery weather is one, and that's gonna stretch all the way down south to places that don't usually see snow places like a new orleans behind that some of winter weather coming in for west some parts of canada. but there will be some improvements to the temperature here for calgary lat, stria for western parts of the us california see some very dry weather, but the winds have died down from now. we are expecting them to pick up. however, later in the week. now it's all about the temperature as you can see that frigid, cold, stretching all the way down to the very soft the only place that will see a temperature rise of the next few days is miami at 25 degrees celsius because the temperatures are still going to tumble across the north of mexico, we bought 11 degrees in monterey on monday. that's down to 5. and you can see those severe storms starting to pull across the gulf of mexico, bringing some heavy rain to florida, much to why it was sunshine. however,

for cuba the, there's no limit to have a dream container stuff in your own event, you know, counter and things the, the

about just about top stories this hour is released 90 palestinian prison. this is part of the cause of cease 5 deal with amongst women and children, presidents all the 1st to be free to this initial phase of the $23.00 female captives, a, b, b united with the mothers, 15 months after they would taken by him us and held and gulls. gornstein, greco roman gunmen, an empty demo, reweigh. hundreds of the red cross and gaza city and then driven across the pool. the eastern will system will began. 15 months ago, almost 47000 palestinians have been killed. more than 18800 of them with children and many young survivors permanently scarred with only basic medical services available in schools, destroyed goals as young people faced and uncertain future. they not black lab reports. they've witnessed death loss and destruction the children of

cause or bearing the brunt of israel's war. children make up nearly half of the population and the besieged strip. and do you want has described it as the most dangerous place in the world to be a child? well, we want to be a month into the war. they pleaded for protection. think all they wanted was to live as other children live and do it, but they're desperate calls for help. went on heard. and the bones did not stop since then at least 44 percent of the palestinians killed in this war. had been children the for those and survived the scar stretch far beyond the physical motional plan. this know that we're never going to change the aerospace to get any doubt many have lost one

or both parents. nearly 19000 are now orphans. and from the horrors, the for a grim acronym emerged, w. c, n ss wounded child, no surviving family marked on the tiny bodies of those who survived. many other children are named for life. health officials say child m. p t's account for 18 percent of all recorded amputation cases. in garza garza now has the highest number of child i'm p cheese per capita, anywhere in the world. many are you losing their lives in scenarios such as this that undergoing surgeries without anesthesia. there's cars are a permanent reminder of the ones that will outlast any ceasefire. but amid all the destruction children and gaza claim to hold as fragile as it might

be longing for a return of childhood stolen by genocide, the novel clay as a 0. well, well, young palestinian has the volume of the 50 months of war, but in the past week many members of his family were killed including his mother. this is the story of adam. i'm in solemn the shad yet new show and how the how they can of the how to facilitate the did the so if anybody is a felon one set up and how to do a whole a whole. yeah. and the whole clinic is next day is the licensee. yeah. it's. i'm the, i'm a special ed that's a more fit. so can oh and the sense definitely can afford it really is

fabi fabi. i make that decisions on the add them. ok. since the ego had it finished and all the stuff in the i will based on the some and then you have a name check. and so because you didn't know i was supposed to do any of my, i've had an issue of how people go to this has one of the, the many sitting out in some new one of us in the field and had the weather with all that stuff and, and then the, then a small, we back to a was 7 to 7. how the side of that. and then what was that of my head age of with an inlaw needs to your key the push ads. and another case that i saw health news, whether hi phil, i remember the hit who i added has been moved special enough. thanks a lot of the federal hey, i need the, the data that the

to the states now in less than 24 hours. donald trump will be sworn in this a $47.00 is the president of the united states. the monkeys political come back with a make america great again, victory valley and a pull. despite the village people in the capital one are we going to in washington and a promise off the promise of the crowd from valley to building and miss field trip peeling or present job items executive board is i kind of household from literally it was standing room only and there wasn't really much of that. the crowd had cute full. i was on the side to get into the arena. they will remove it once they got in with a pop concert. the comments

from hollywood royalty, he will make america great again the dental code for them, but they will wait to donate from well, thank you very much. thank you. who purchased things and pledged a better future? we're going to cut your taxes, and inflation slash your price is getting a back down, raise your wages, and bring thousands of factories back to the usa, right where they belong, and that'll be done through terrorists and smart policy. we will build american, we will buy america, then we will hire american i will end the war a new brain. i will stop the chaos in the middle east and i will prevent world war 3 from happening. it was consumed as well that the president of that will be signing a lot of executive orders. once he takes office,

among them and the top of the list, we were told one on immigration, mike kind of, i'll just sierra washington willing to lead up the jumps and olga ration i was just, it was broadcasting special coverage, focusing on issues central to us domestic and foreign policy is sort of vanya from washington dc. we're joined by phyllis bennett's. you're a fellow at the institute for policy studies. you have a forthcoming book, understanding palestine and israel, and you're an international advisor to a jewish voice for peace. i think that being with us, great to be with you. i want to start, but just getting your reaction to what we've seen on the full day. one of this cease fire and hostage release deal between mos in israel day one. the 1st thing we saw was the release of the hostages. and of course that's very moving, seeing people who have been without their families with their families, not knowing that's very powerful. and we saw this extraordinary level of organization and how they were turned over to the i, c r c and then to the ideas and then to their families. so that's all good of the

release of palestinian prisoners took longer. as is almost always the case here it's sort of that's the secondary priority is made into a secondary priority. but the most important thing is that so far we have not seen breaches in the actual ceasefire. so there's been no bombings since we saw these really bombings right up until the moment of the ceasefire being implemented. and 20 people, as i understand it, were killed in the last hour before. so these railways were clearly taking every opportunity to kill as many people as possible before they have to stop bonding with our bombs from this country paid for by our taxes. so that's what i'm thinking about it's, it's a huge relief, but we have to knock that up for a minute on our work to make sure it gets implemented. so we don't know what happens assuming phase one, actually holes. we don't know what happens after that because phase 2 isn't guaranteed and it needs to be negotiated starting day 16,

a phase one. right. and what we have seen is that the is really prime minister. netanyahu has said even the night before the just hours before the ceasefire went into effect in the national address to his own people. he said, we have no intention of giving up our military presence. our soldiers in the uh, in the court, or along the, the, between the beach and the, the board or the edge of gaza. the israelis now controlled about a 100 meter wide long strip that entire way. and part of the agreement says that they will move those, they will begin the process of moving those soldiers out. and he said, we're not only going to move, not move them out, we're going to add more. so he's already announcing his intention of violating the exact terms of the cease fire regardless of this, the spirit of the ceasefire. so there's going to take a huge amount of work and we don't know what kind of pressure if any, there will be from the trunk administration. well, well man, yeah. who is said,

if we need to resume fighting, if we feel we need to go back in there and i was doing fighting, we will do so we will do so with us support. he has said that and there is no reason to think that trump didn't promise him that for example, in his private meeting, whenever that was some weeks ago, we don't know what went on at that meeting. it may well have included a deal if you give me a ceasefire before i get sworn in, which is what i want. i don't want any disruption to buy a tube to my my celebrations in washington. i will not complain if you go back to war. he may have said other things, he may have made other promises. maybe he promised more settlement approvals in the west back. we don't know. so the you, the israel fights and generally acts in regards to the palestinians with american support. now in less than 24 hours, they are in the capital building, donald trump will take the oath of office and become the 47th president of the united states. does he, in your view, will he change the trajectory of.
