i miss jones, the freedom it lost a 110 palestinian prisoners have been released from his ready trials, the spice of the times by israel's prime minister to suspend the exchange. the i'm the clock. this is officer light from dell will say coming up the come us. and as i mentioned 3, i 3 is rain. these and 5 time nationals held in dallas was part of a sweet spot to cut as it me it becomes the 1st for

a needed to visit syria. since you have a true, a former president bush are all a side and a us passenger jet with 64 people on board, collides mid to the military helicopter. president trump says on no suffice. the southern israel has released a $110.00 pallets to be in prison. this is part of a cease fire agreement with us. the this is you can see hundreds of how the thing is got. they did remodeler in the occupied westbank to welcome them home, around 30 children or among the palestinian prisoners released at least 32 of the prisoners were serving life sentences. this is amazing. suppose the new prisoner

was, were united with his family and occupied east jerusalem. and that's where at least 20 of the prisoners have been released timers among the most prominent patterson, unit, prisoners re just exactly as the body. he was part of the front to move. she will not be allowed to return to janine and the occupied westbank because of israel's on getting rid of trees. so these are the scenes in con unit. some does it with some of these prisoners with crowds of people waiting degrees target. my resume is being reporting for us incoming units in southern gaza, where he spoke with one of the prison his sons, as he waited for his father to be released. that's the thing back to that and i the situation is very overwhelming. as you can see right now with the bucket ground celebrations are made, and families are set up rating the potential return of the palestinian prisoners from the east. very j is that in order to understand this much better, we are joined right now bike. well, how much i'm good i he is

a one of the palestinian prison. his sons, who is expected to be released today, the optical asked him how much, hello mohammad could you tell us how you are feeling today on this historic day? a lot of news about prison is being released from the audio 100 an hour so cool. i love them. thank god we thank god for everything. so this is a great and big day. all father was one of those released in the deal. oh, this is a really great achievement and we would like to thank the resistance for this. we all hopeful i can't describe how i'm feeling right now. thank god and praise be to god. i was 2 years old when my father was in prison. and today i'm over 32 years old. my son is 6 years old. i am so grateful to god for having the opportunity to live in these moments and to see my father. and i hope that all of the prisoners will be released. give sure what i can and ascribed to us how you will live the 1st moments with your father. well, actually it was on monday, but i can't describe now home feeling. i have no was to describe this feelings. a

lot of my relatives and my parents and my aunts that have died. i would like to go and receive my father now, sorry to part of it. thank you. well, how much, how much is right now on his way to re united again with his father, we can see now a group of palestinian prisoners have arrived to either rupe and hospital in the international committee of direct costs vehicles. and there are right now are going to be re united again with the family members who will have been and praising them for the 1st time off top years of separation and an overwhelming situation with a mix of emotions. hope i'm typing this or has been an extraordinary day. a honda civic joint is not from george's couple of a mom because he's ready governments in the past. and you know, 3rd to her find out just are from reporting it is relevant, occupied westbank and have that. so just focus through it if you would, because this whole process was held up by these writers. one point was that

that's right, is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu actually tried to not have this release happened altogether, saying that he was halting it because he wanted guarantees for mediators. but what had happened, didn't hon. eunice, when our bill you who was released wouldn't happen again in the future saying that it posed a danger to the captives who are being released. saying that he was essentially disgusted by the images he saw what it was really just crowds of palestinians around this captive shortly. it wasn't as organized as the previous captives released that we've seen over the last 2 weeks. but none the less the is really authorities have been railing into this release saying that they want it guarantees that this wouldn't happen again, saying that they're holding him as responsible for the safety of the captives. and after apparently getting those assurances for mediators benjamin netanyahu. and the defense minister went ahead with a release of palestinian prisoners,

even though it was delayed. it did still happen and it happened earlier than we had anticipated actually because the 1st release 2 weeks ago happened in the middle of the night, around 2 or 3 am local time. and that's because these really authorities wanted to prevent any sort of celebrations among palestinians. but as we've seen over last week and today they were unable to prevent that is what about, is there any condition on palestinian families for the release of palestinian presidents as well there were a lot of conditions that were given to these families before the release. they said that they couldn't participate in any sort of celebrations. the israel prisons service had released the statement a couple of weeks ago saying that throughout the entirety of phase one of this deal, while there are policy and prisoners being released. but they were going to try to suppress any expressions of joy, and those are the words verbatim. in their statement,

they wanted to limit and cancel all celebrations because to israel, this was nothing worth celebrating. of course, they are celebrating the release of these really captives. that's what this deal was mainly about, but it came at a cost releasing these policy and prisoners in many on the far right within israel are seeing these images as a huge defeat. saying that his role essentially gave in to an absolute defeat rather than trying to achieve this absolute victory that they were touting since the beginning of the war and killing nearly 50000 palestinians in the process. but none the less israel even dropped flyers across the occupied was bank via drones telling people not to carry a flags or signs or banners of any sort of pals. did he in factions telling them not to engage in the crowds not to get involved in any way and that they would be found interested in these really aren't even admitted to having pre emptive arrests before the release or a 100. thanks for that time to salute the speaking just from amal and let's bring

in see the political unless mullen, bizarre has been watching these extraordinary events unfolding as a day is going on and low. and so on the one side, we have instructions for those celebrations. and on the other, we have a show of strings and postering from home. us. this is mind boggling, isn't it? next, i mean the sex as a, as an emotional rollercoaster ever to where do you grow, whether it's and good or celebration joy or depression. and clearly a lot of tears of joy, you know, it was also are reunited, whether the families were that they are on days, ready decides, and certainly the many, many on the front of thing inside. but aside from just the spontaneous the public out for the emotions for those, you know, for the loved ones, there's also a bit of, uh, implicit strategy here on the part of is, right is how i'm us in terms of uh,

their ongoing psychological warfare. how much just trying to project an image of unity of confidence, of fearlessness of organization. and clearly trying to rub uh nothing new. i was nose in the doors to an human, the 8 these really minute 30 saying you've tried for 15 months to beat us. you've tried for 15 months to release the prisoners by force and you failed. and for these right, is this the same thing, more or less, you know, they're trying to say, look, we have to do what we have to do to, to corporate our captors. but this is definitely no reason to celebrate, even if it means that it is about a set of sydney and prisoners squatting, to kiss the mother the feet of the mothers that they haven't seen for so long. i suppose something might say, or might wonder whether or not this is prudent for her. my son is loved. you have

to put on that show of power in the sense that it made fuel but it will fuel antagonism within the more extreme side of those in israel and the possibility of some kind of response this oh absolutely. i think, i think how much is taking a risk by doing that because it's considered those at the bottom. awesome. meaning the psychological warfare of it's for what or you know, struggling for uh, liberation and resistance and from okay, i guess i'll condition on what time you and that doesn't stop writes the 2nd is not the psychological part and certainly not the part when it's studying is you didn't when, because you cannot when, when i'm not defeated. right. and, and to be honest, this is a bit of wonder about it or make, right. i mean, the fact that they seem to emerge from the ashes, from,

from the degree from the destruction, right? the way, the way they, they released the captain from the debris or vase at bottom. yeah. i mean bottom. yeah, that was almost like, there's not a model for 15 months and yet they weren't able to do that. but yes sir, that your point, this could be risky. and this could actually eventually, yeah, you know, the sort of entice is right, is to do something set to lead the fascists and be nothing you know, government. but that also that's something else. if i may, it's good to meet the segment of the palestinian society that to say, you know, stuck with a celebration stuck with this. the optics we are really suffering here. you know, let's just try it and, and, and, and, and deal with our moon's on our distorted homes and, and, and more our dad instead of just discontinued. so ya thinks, of a psychological warfare. it's m o and who we are. and what does it say? 12 of the sci fi on day 16 negotiations for phase to begin. how is this stage?

what's your assessment? how the stage do you think we're set on this, this long road towards potential peace? a set off. but my understanding is that this has already started. uh, not necessarily the officially and clearly with all the uh, diplomatic um, activity with the special ed boy a uh of the truck administration. mister with cough in the region and even going into guys. uh, i would be at the club, this thing the, you know, it is really mandatory, but clearly, you know, in jerusalem and the hon and the rest of it this, stephanie, i started in preparation. a few words for that. i might understanding is that a trump has ordered instructed that then you know, to get with the program that the washington is interested in turning bite is more into trumps. you know,

piece as it where even if it is at the expense of the palestinian or i should say, especially that that would be at the expense of the palestinians in the sense that trump is sending that to now or nothing else telling tom except that the extension of the ceasefire, i'll accept face toward face 3. if i am rewarded for something and the aspect, because as you and i spoke over the past many months, guys, i might be the strategic liability for is right. it might be best to should you challenge what is read but this, the trajectory words remains confiscations, all 4 in the west bank that's worth nothing. now government is interested in. it doesn't care if guys is up to date as i'm filling through the see what it cares about is controlling the west bank. and if you remember back in 2016, 2020, it was from that the guys is or is that accession of jerusalem?

and is there as an extension of the garden heights? both of them illegal, both of them, i guess international law, and yet it was done as if it was the fact old. and nothing was of things that this would be repeated again. one last thing, if i may, i think also that it doesn't have much of a choice look. i mean, the man has proof to be a liability for his right in terms of what happened october 7 in terms of his corruption charges in terms of being pursued by the international criminal court. if there's a being, jake did the long term sort of thing, 5 minister. so i think his career is how getting you know on, on, uh, on, on nothing actually to be honest with you, just on the, on the sense of momentum and trump could ended in a minute. and they, so i'm all really with that for the moment to speech a bit later in the program. i think that definitely now thanks very much. monitors are here and what are the united nation says the agency for palestinian refugees

known as anyone is continuing. and so, for instance, a garza the occupied with banking or quite the streets inside is despite israel's buying on the agency coming into effect on 1st day of the agency provides critical assistance to 96000000 promising refugees, including health care and education. it's also the by phone a few minutes here in operations. within gulf monroe has one of the disastrous consequences. if it's real, prevents you agency from carry out its objectives. i can tell you that uh on what the hell told us today. and we've been speaking to them by phone a number of times this morning that they are continuing to deliver assistance and services to the communities. they're serving underwashed clinics across the occupied westbank, including east jerusalem are open. let's spring together. that is on those donors from un headquarters in new york and watching this developing situations that gave me it's all quite confusing, isn't that israel saying that nora? the office in a fight is truism. needs to be shut down?

is it it's, it's not 10. it is a little bit confusing, but we heard from the secretary general spokes person there that we just heard from there. right in his briefing, he said that the unreal office in occupied east jerusalem and this is their administrative office is still functioning. the office, the un flag is still flying over the office. uh the office is essentially still functioning. however, it's empty and it's empty because he said that to about 2 dozen international staff did not have their visas renewed by israel. so they have been forced to leave any local staff is either working from home or elsewhere. so the building is there again, administrative offices, the building is there. the un flag is flying. it is not officially been shut. uh, but that would have to come from israeli authorities, it would have to physically go there and change the locks if you will,

and take down the un flag that did not happen on thursday. so the u. n. is trying to function as best as they can, that's from their administrative office there. and they say there's essentially a no change from that regard. right, and functioning is best it kind. does that mean that it is continue to operate anywhere else in the occupied respectful ghost? and this is a key point and the answer is very clear on this. uh yes, yes and yes and right says they are continuing to do their work in gaza in the occupied westbank. they are continuing and they will continue because as i said correctly, they have a mandate to do that work that they've been doing for decades now. so they say we're going to continue to do that work. nothing has changed in terms of their field operations and providing the care to millions of people and also to point out since the ceasefire went into effect. and guys that, uh, a going in to guys uh, more than 50 percent of it goes in it via and via, under uh,

in one way shape or form. so i'm are, is right on the front lines of this. they say they are continuing and their message is very clear. they are not shutting down their operations in the field, and they are not going to stop their work. and it's important to point out that a recent vote of the un general assembly, a 158 member states voted to support the under a mandate. so clearly, the world really is behind unrest, continuing the work that they will do. but where this goes from here, it's anybody's guess. but clearly, israel is putting as many restrictions are, are throwing as much confusion into this that makes under his work clearly more difficult, but they say they will march on and continue doing their work. all right, thanks for clearing that up k bag. their room is under the you and h q in new york to well, the wing of how a mass has confirmed the tests of 2 senior members in the gold strip last year. and i really, truly them haven't. i was killed when it's ready. 5 objects hit con eunice on july
