the relationship with china developing over the course of the trunk, but to the space from global markets and economies. the big question here is the in still a safe haven costing to understand how it affects the nights. counting the cost on al jazeera, the, [000:00:00;00] the, i'm sort of a good to have you with us. this is the news our lives from don't. coming up in the program today, hours before $110.00 pallets saying prisoners were set to be freed. is really government is suspending their release. that's after palestinian groups released 3 is released and 5 ty, nationals held in gaza as part of the ceasefire agreements between is real and how

much israel's been on the un refugee agency. allison use comes into effect cutting off vital few minutes here in a to gust and be in the are of guitar is in damascus, becoming the 1st foreign leader to visit syria since the overthrow of the charlotte . the israel's government is suspending the release of palestinian prisoners hours before they were set to be freed. that is, according to his really media reports. israel had agreed to free a 110 palestinians detained in his prisons as part of the ongoing gaza ceasefire. deal at least 32 of them are serving life sentences. another $48.00 or serving links, the jail terms and 30 palestinian children were also due to be freed. those prisoners were said to be released as part of the deal. and so as really captives being

released during the or on thursday from the gaza strip, a mouse released is really sold, are gone burger, who had been held captive in asia volume refugee camp in the north. around the same time is really captives our valued and guiding moses were also released that was an hon. eunice in the south. the captives were walk through large crowds and handed over to red cross officials is really army says 5 tie. nationals were also free as well. as really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has criticized the way the captives were released and signed eunice in a post on the social media platform x. he said, if you, with great severity, the shocking seems during the release of our hostages, this is further proof of the unimaginable cruelty. it'd be almost terrorist organization. and he also, as i demand that the mediator is make sure that such unbearable scenes will not recur. and to guarantee the security of our hostages. but our correspondents are following these developments across the region. tarik was zoom,

is in hon unit 7 guys, a honey. my mood is standing by and got the city 1st. so we go to laura hahn in a month. and laura, you're there because the is really government and palestinian authority have banned down to 0 from reporting inside israel and inside the occupied westbank. tell us about this news that we are just getting. this is reporting and reported by is really media, but the government of israel is going to delay releasing the palestinian prisoners . and i'm just hearing that this has now been confirmed by the is really go the well we've just got the news officially from the is ready spokesman. that's but it's benjamin netanyahu. i'm defense minister of israel katz has said that they are going to delay the release of these $110.00 policy and present us that was supposed to be released today. and that's because of what they saw happening in hon. eunice. this was the release of

a bite as nomic g had essentially that thing somebody went wrong with that kind of the more been tell to in, in the area that they at the cap just being released. what month. and they will not continue this until they are guarantees of the safe per ton of the captives. so we know a soul soon from us speaking also to media as they are now or discussing this with the media to. so now this is essentially within everyone's favorite to can, can use the captive where the steel, we have safe wit, coffee us at the us and boy, for the middle east in israel, at the moment he has been in what's become known as hostage square in tennessee. with, with, with the, the captive families who have been there on a weekly basis, protest things, but pressure from the government to release these captives. and he's also been speaking to top officials, including netanyahu in the government. so he's essentially overseeing this and ensuring that this categories continues to take place. so it's

a bit of pressure as well from the us. there's also the pressure from the kept as families for nesting, yahoo to continue this process. so they all saying that poor thing, this process for now, but until there are guarantees, so we'll have to wait to see how they can guarantee what these guarantees may be. laura, one thing i wanna make crystal clear with you right now the is really government is not saying we're not going to release them. we're no longer doing this. they are saying it's a pause. it's a suspension, right? a delay. that's number one. number 2, can you just remind us how this was supposed to happen today? the release of the policy and prisoners of the, i mean, it's difficult to say exactly how it was supposed to happen. that seems to be a set choreography that we see taking place on a weekly basis. and these are captives that being held by hamas islamic jihad and all the functions involved in taking these uh,

captives on the 7th of october and holding them now for 15 months. so how much just essentially focused ray should this way they have signs some papers with the international committee of the red cross. just before we see the release of some of those captives we saw for last saturday, 3 the week before. and of course h today including 5 tie captives who are essentially released as a bonus, but that, i mean, there's been some spikes when it comes to the details of the release of ardo. yahoo has been held by islamic jihad and she was one of those people released in hon eunice today. and that was a made a huge amount of people. and so essentially they were, as she was saying, i'm taking the along a card or towards the i c r c. cause that what files of people surrounding her and members of islamic jihad, essentially creating

a circle around her in order to get her to the vehicle. but she's also possibly reason there was a snack in the 1st place because it's, i think she has said she was a soldier and they wanted to swap half of 50 posting and prisoners as is public deal. outbox it be, it's right, was saying she's actually a civilian and they want to go ahead with her being, being released in the 1st pos, the deal. so this is why she was then released out today. essentially. however, the way that took place, the way took place in hon. eunice was quite distinctly different from the release earlier of i could becca in giovanni refugee camp front by her mouth. so it seemed to show fools at strongly. somebody had at the south in the con eunice box. of course this went wrong when it comes to these ready to government and it's right the media and the counts of families that are laura. thank you very much for that reporting out of amman jordan. they'll go straight to tara, tara, a couple of whom was in find eunice, southern gaza related,

commented for us live the release of to is really captives from hon. eunice. you witnessed the whole thing. now you're, you're still in hon units, but you are now with the i c r c or near the i, c r c, the international committee for the red cross because they play a central role in shuttling prisoners and captives from gaza. to israel and from israel to gaza and we were expecting palestinian prisoners. some of those who are going to be released to be brought back to gaza. or you hearing is the i c r c. getting any more detail on this delay. to now through the all you see are see did not receive further updates about or details about the potential release of the palestinian prisoners from the east. very childs to the gaza strip. but what we can completely see in the repeated

hospitals is ongoing preparations made to by the i c r c. incorporation with garza's health ministry regarding preparing medical points to conduct a different source of medical checks for a palestinian prisoners who are scheduled to be released today. what we are witnessing is a remarkable sort of sort of delayed for the release of those prisoners as they have no further details about the tool. now the faith are they going to be released today or even to a be to late to late hours of today is not like i'd be back around at the end of that road. the families of palestinian prisoners was scheduled to be released today are still anxiously and desperately waiting for the return of the of their id folder, a family members of from these very jails and are waiting for all posted in prisoners to be free. today, if there's a grubbing sentiment of decision regarding the collapse of that a release today,

and it might be delayed following the scenes that were completely observed in the city of hot units for the release of the a to is very captives alongside with the 5 type nationals of from a b, and the front of the house of how mazda is a political, a bureau chief. yeah, he's doing well in the city of hon. you in a spot till now. there were still any significant breakthrough as we are waiting for further updates on the ground to chase and to see whether those prisoners will be released today or it to be delayed for a late today that will be set to buy these ready military incorporation with regional mediators regarding that it's a topic, let's talk about the you reference the scenes the played out in the gaza strip earlier today x, there's a volume sign you this 2 different places in all 3 is really captives were released . you were in hon eunice where 2 of them were released. you've attended some of these events before because this is day 3. this is the 3rd time that i'm us release is captive. how did what you saw today in hon. eunice?

how did that compare to previous captives releases? there is a very, a significant difference regarding the release of the captive today from the city of calling units with the previous groups of ease of any cap fits release of from gauze and city. a during the initial days of the ceasefire agreements between as well and how much the other has been a very remote couple level of the preparations made a by the military ring of how much does it say to guarantee a very smooth and a cli, a transfer of the captive to the international committee of the red cross spot today, the scene has been quite overwhelming up to you all to do to the very highly numbers of civilians who was a coming to watch the release of the east, where the captives from the neighborhoods of yeah, yes, and while i'm at the same time, there has been

a sort of miscommunication that seems to be between the publish the new factions regarding the release of the east bed, the captives from the city, which could reflect on top of the repercussions on the course of the release, the pre posting at present is from the easily jails today. but what we can see is that we might witness some sort of improvement within becoming a release of the is very captives as long as this the sticking point. that's where are facing today can come to the results by regional mediators, to witness the return of palestinian prisoners to the families who are waiting in the routine hospitalized departments for the right time to. all right, thank you very much. no doubt the mediator is katara egypt. the us are working on this already. we know they all want to see slide deal to continue a topic up with zoom reporting from one unit. as soon as you hear anything on your end, please let us know. let's go to honey, my mood, honey is live outside of the hospital. that's and gaza city funny how, how,

how this thing is feeling and in talking about what they saw today, whether it's such a value or hon. eunice, and what's happening right now in, gosh, are they, i mean, the, the, the release of is really kept is how are they talking and addressing this well, let's start with the fact that there are 2 good things out of this. the inspire so far, the positive, the killing of the violence hasn't brought much of the relief and also the respite port, palestinians, whether they are, they were trapped here in northern part of garden city, or they were displaced in the northern part of the 3rd. the 2nd good things is not only just the return of people into their homes, into the northern part of district despite the challenges ahead of them. and that the already littering their journey back to their homes in gauze and don't know their 5. but the fact that palestinians, the prisoners are now being, are being released from is really just there. there was some time, there were times where palestinians families here, particularly parents, mother and father who, who never thought their,

their children will be freed from these really these, you know, there are, from 1967 to this point. they close to 300 palestinians who died inside is very of these young people. parents did not know anything about them. so it's a mom is now a relief, a moment of respite, as well as a moment of, of, of celebration that the very particular family members are relatives who were thrown into jails years ago. they never thought they would actually see the light of the day. it was a v is regularly here, so for them it's more of the resurrection of from death. seeing these back to all palestinian destiny is coming out. it was really just due to the gaza city or those who are going to be a v. as in, outside, but the most important thing that they are out of the out of these really just and that's what pretty much it brought much of the happiness and the excitement as much as people's hope excited unhappy about returning to their homes. now there is an added excitement right now. what happened is that these to where the whole spent

years in these ratios are going to be in terms of the release of the cop is both and, and your body in your body of the departments have been con eunice. these are 2 areas where these read the military have operated relentlessly and lift the areas as we so in the fixtures. and the footage emerging from these locations is really military. that is stated, these 2 areas turned into a wasteland. the pile of rubble that is a quite uninhabitable and, and the life is quite impossible. there. we're not only talking about the buildings that have been destroyed or collapse due to the ongoing bodies. but the fact that there did not leave any basic necessities or basic infrastructure to support people returning to these areas, much harder living conditions on the grounds that make it a quite uninhabited, where it is being people not returning home to these areas are making their way back to their tend sides for one simple reason, the lack of water is

a driving everyone outside and with the delay and leading into the areas. it's making it very difficult for people to stay. and, but there's a sense of really a sense of celebration that this destiny is how the thing that i need are going back to their home was just there is honeywell who reporting from gaza city. thank you very much. that honey families of palestinian prisoners that were due to be released today had been gathering in ramallah in the occupied westbank. they were waiting or waiting to be reunited with their loved ones. this is what they had to say, at least so we were disappointed before we heard that he was going to be released in the past 2 batches. and so we came to them a lot, but went back without him. now we have confirmation that he will be coming out me in the family are beyond happy. i have another son in prison who will hopefully also be released flood or hello to sub the i couldn't sleep last night from anxiety and joy. i haven't slept for 2 weeks. i still don't believe you will be out and

that i will see him. then i'll be able to touch him and hug him. i hope no one gets deprived of their loved ones for 24 years. so what you heard there are these thoughts and feelings were expressed before we found out just moments ago that the is really government was now delaying the release of policy and prisoners list of things at the apple 8. he's a political analyst. you're joining us from bethlehem. so in the occupied westbank 1st, your fourths on what we're just finding out the release of policy and prisoners is being at a minimum paused we can just say the political importance when these 3 black has been on the agreement, it's way too early to see eastern perspective, everything agreement is started for making like this week. up to now we would say that from the list of play scenarios that are going to be released today, hopefully are going to be released today. we have already seen several funding nations office reading obligations from one person,

the supposed to be released under the also the agreement cannot connect between 213 the board not supposed to be child by he so he didn't need to create books. now they're saying they're not saying that they're ending right the, the ceasefire. and they're not saying that at all. they're not saying that they're not going to release the policy and present as they're saying that they're suspending it. um, it looks like they are using that they're using those policy and prisoners as leverage is that fair is? yeah, perfectly fine with us and i would definitely and i'm trying to emphasize on the fact that we're talking about a ceasefire. we're not talking about a piece deal in the active to the story, the government and the basic not one develop here in the elk you by westbank. but it was 900 move logistics and started looking a business day to police our a 4 hour posting a see to some pos. it's not the academic or policies of a government. the big use of piece to spot here, palms for the sake of peace on the country,

i would say in this torturing they are due to the thing and it may be solved the price. i'm just a part of this lets me clear. we've had examples in the past where a student personalized how big they come from the bus on the bus is when they were supposed to be nice. we'll have one piece to day for examples and that is a baby problem. jeanine with richard come. i waited for them to be there. he was supposed to be released and one of the best spots and he was basically the name for another week. so those kind of tactics is something that this, what you look, patient used to, it continues when, you know, i would say to provide or click the punishment to find me. this will get rid of, of the, based on our sample, that kind of thing. and people in general, and i'm us and as long as you had on there and have also been using the captives that they have as, as leverage. and they've been using these release events to make political statements. do you think that they are going to turn it down or do you think that

they are going to to abide by what is real is demanding which is a more secure and israel's framing of it a more secure way of releasing the hostages. the captives, according to, according to the really need the benjamin that them. yeah. who was very upset with the images it today and gone. so, and i think of the best solution to, to solve the issue is just to go to what both agree a, what this is important that they can buy company and digital diplomacy. and, but we just made the switch the ceasefire agreement, including the exchange or based on our skis for ballpark. this told me exactly what, what's in there, and of course, with benjamin netanyahu, and to show you the government they're doing now by delaying the release of punish thing impressed on the bank by basic the site project to torturing the single person are set to be. it's off board of what those agree. i am just hearing just as you're answering their i just got the information from the this is coming to us

from the policy and prisoners information office that the palestinian prisoners that were slated to be released today will be released in about 90 minutes in about an hour and a half. so do you get the sense that both sides is real and hum us? yes, they do not trust each other, but they do want at least phase one of the ceasefire deal to be completed. so this is precisely what you can find all the kind of thing in any sort of media. and i think it's in the interest of everyone for everyone to go home, including of course the task was to find a statement prisoners they would just say in the for many that kind of thing on the street that lease agreement is not. not that we're picking up $750.00 or around $750.00 was taking place in or so they're supposed to be released to how this 1st was stage in recent years. i mean, people that have been there in jail for a home during the summer. it's less around $1000.00 people from goes off the having

the same concept over the 7th, and let's say they wouldn't multiple, i'm going to deal anything just yesterday, the history, the indian prisoners club and other spinning organizations being bull waiting, they present or issue based on the confirmation to some garza and her mother, i'm sending 35 years old and humor sports 25 years old. the dog. in other words, they would kill it under a strain. the when important medic amendment does a horrible element. in other words, the situation which is extremely dramatic and that kind of seamless truth and people are definitely expecting for the reading. so with the locals, we're still in the early stages of face one of this ceasefire deal. so it might be hard to answer this next question. so, but do you think that israel and hum us both want to move on to phase 2 and then ultimately phase 3. that means ending the war. that means a pull out of is really troops and that means rebuilding cause ultimately end up

also means opening for another bunch of listing. and based on our so many people are here in front of the line and how about the the, the, the perspective. so if you have any other placements, including, for example, the case or whatever, what the, what remains the most popular kind of thing going to be there according to the old start, basically, they're both present over 20 years ago. now, what would we say is the a form going to send you on the screen? what then the following stages are perspective. we can also say that according to benjamin to, but now when staples of how in coming out of his own cabinet members, it's, they, these now sent them to regarding a step they were afraid to leave. and they have been saying that after face one, they're going to resume find things, and there is a local police done. and so you media about this issue, even though it's, it's all set, but the, the, the special employee don't personally have trauma. it was cleared tool been given to them. yeah. well that they belong to the base to, to continue. but that's our own home or so far. if we are to talk about what's

going on. so far we've had to is they just multiply subsidies, but that has been completed. we were wasting now. see how so the few minutes ago or for the 3rd one in a few minutes, hopefully and, and from there we have one to 2 big things and i know nice things from that perspective. but clearly this one site here which is the started once again, which is not totally completed into the whole i've read them and they will say clearly that the main, the finally thing it be a conventional stuff like we might have just talked to by the end of the lease, while exactly, i believe political analysts joining us in bethlehem. thank you very much for joining us. somebody else is here a news hour and i will repeat what we heard. we opened the show saying that the is really government was delaying the release of the palestinian prisoners. now we're hearing from the policy and prisoners information office that they will indeed be released today in about an hour and a half from now. so that's something we'll watch very closely. israel's ban on the un agency for policy and refugees,

that's buena law has come into effect. protesters have been rallying against the organization outside is offices. israel's van covers and it was operations in israel and occupied east jerusalem. it also prohibits as really, authorities from having any contact with the owner want in gaza and in the occupied west back some context on an on the agency you, an agency was created in 1949 to support palestinians were forcibly displaced during the napa or catastrophe. today it supports nearly 6000000 refugees and 58 camps. across garza, they occupied westbank and jordan 11 on and syria. so across the region. as of last year, more than half a 1000000 children were enrolled in and was 709 schools. the agency also runs a 140 primary health care facilities and more than 30000 palestinians across the middle east worked for the agency and was also supports the right of palestinians to return to their homeland as stipulated. and the un general assembly resolution

resolution, which is real, rejects, chris caught us as former director of communications for ottawa. the united nation is relief and works agency for palestine. refugees in the near east. that's the full name of and was crystal joining us from london. you've had when you were working with her in a while, you had your own run ins with israel. this was several years ago already. but his real had already at the time accused in want of being a collaborator of homeless as they are doing today. and that is their official rationale for shutting down for a while. so i wanted your thoughts on, you know, today of all days given the band with no come into effect. well, the tragedy of today is that is the best part of the piece that isabel had on. andre is the best expression of sole power that the american ministration, that the europeans of a. how are you today? if you look at the c spot and also what you've just been reporting on,

you don't need for that to say you don't need to 1000000 hungry and greet desperate people on the on route. so this is 7000 stop have been feeding on over hundreds of thousands over 200000 people since the will started to step in drink, bringing water and sanitation services to over 600000 full team 1000 health consultations every day. that's 2 thirds of the whole health provisions in garza. so in terms of making the see spots, they can bring the hostages back home. although it is absolutely a part that's a piece, it's probably it will allow to get on with its work. as far as eliza concerned, i've always said that this is ation, that the 1200 staff members took part in the top see not tobar. the full 15 months ago was the mother who lives as well has produced no evidence. so there was a kathrine color, the result that was in a once in a lifetime, opportunity for israel to present, to an independent body full of the accusations against under the textbooks,

the teachers, the social media, postings, the stomach, colona said they had, could use no evidence a on the, on the rough with fall back to, in terms of neutrality provisions and pretty much any other un agency. so it is an absolute tragedy that we're seeing these bits of enabled legislation by the way they violate international which come into full today. chris, is there perhaps some room left for only want to operate specifically inside the gaza strip? and i ask you, this is a little prelude to this question. otherwise banned by israel on the basis of 2 is really laws one as we explain bands own law in the territory of israel and an occupied east jerusalem. the other law doesn't a specifically bad it. it says that is real, can have is really government and authorities can have no contact with. and while the branch of and why that is currently operating and gaza,

does that lead any breathing room at all for n y to michael? yeah, go ahead. okay. my concern is what's gonna happen is the issue of effect. we have to do nothing on the phone, in garza and in the west spunk, including history, some also exclusively with uh and chromebooks. it's funks, we have folks on who, whether the bank account with bank, let me be as ready by next through which i'm revising, potatoes, goods, food, for example, whether that bank account, which is probably some will be on 1st. it's unclear whether it's, well, we'll give these as it said, it's not, you know, i've seen the international stock for me under a headquarters in history. some go across out of the bridge in these right is a given every indication might not allow them to come back. so i think they're great dogs about whether we will be able to continue functioning a full capacity. it's clear that the international styles of under aaron garza that determines the state god bless those people today, what they're doing. but i have to say they're

a real jobs about whether under time carry only given these is ready. those who do you think fills the void that if otherwise and there to distribute food, water, basic necessities, primary health care administer schools as it is. who do you think can fill that void? anyone has said multiple times, there is no one that can do this. as well as wells invested to the united nations has said in a lesser um, to the general assembly to the, to the sector general. but it's, well, we'll do it now. it seems to be an insult to the collective intelligence of the security council, the general suddenly that was that the general and the international community, the state that's going road. and that's expelling the united nations agency. that's accused of genocide in the wealth, highest costs and where the i c c has the rest florence out against the prime minister and the defense minister. as i said, a seems like a real insult to the types of intelligence of things. national community,
