very recognize every day. ok. women make science, global gals, episode full on al jazeera, the, [000:00:00;00] the color on the pocket. this is the news life from dough coming up in the next 60 minutes. the mouse has released is really captive some concept as part of last month. so useful. i deal with israel mass also put on a show of force during the or to the transfer of these are the captives with a message for these ready prime minister israel. well now release to 183 palestinian prisoners,

most of them detained from gaza as part of the exchange kind of cracked down on palestinian celebrations. these really ami rapes, the home of palestinian prisoner expected to be released and you'll only find the westbank. the thanks for joining us, how much has released 3 is ready to come to some guys and as part of last month ceasefire agreement with israel. but israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu was criticized the seams of the exchange, saying israel will not gloss over the shocking image is seen today. all 3 men have now crossed into is there any territory? is the 5th swamp all this way? the captive, so palestinian prisoners since the cx 5 began last month. the the 1st to be released was 56 year old or had been, i mean,

he was taken captive from. it's very true in the october 7th attack along with his wife, whereas she was released by him as of november 2023. the 2nd captive to be released was 52 year old alistar robbie, who was also taken from carpets ferry, along with his brother. you'll see you since being consent. dead. ellie's wife and 2 daughters also kills and the type of sense attack. and this has to come to have to be released. his name is or levy, the 34 year old was taken captive during the nova music festival, blowing his wife a enough she was killed during that time. and this was the sea and it was known as hostages square and kind of the relatives of the country was gathered towards the exchange so many in gaza would join by crowds of other authorities. many of them have been protesting each week since the war began, demanding this where the government bring all the captives home. well, that's what i just put on

a show of strengths during the 70 m central gaza. hundreds of fights is nearby. the stage also feature the picture of israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu with the face absolute victory within hebrew. hundreds of palestinians crowded onto the streets waving a mass on promising and flags degrees. the fights, as well as well, is set to release a 193 pumps. taken prisoners in exchange for the 3 is ready, captives. it will include 72 people who was subbing a live sentence. there's a longer terms in is really jails. he's really ministry has rated the probably heard him of shoddy about gucci, a palestinian prison, who expected to be released on saturday. is there any forces to on the north of ramallah or in the occupied westbank and assaulted his father factory about booty? he was also just saying that the strategy jails, frankly about gucci, was one of the longest held prisoners sentenced to life back in 1978 and then late to release in 2011 during a prisoner swap. that was when the these ready,

soldier glad street was freed. in exchange for 477. have a senior christmas. all right, well have to solve. this is life for us, the and i'm on a honey. my moods is live in garza city, though as well. we'll speak to him during a bit. let's speak to honey for us to honey. we have been monitoring this exchange in very close detail of focus through the key movements. and what happens now, 16 jobs. the captive the, from the galls us an exchange for the release of palestinians prisoners, later on during the day. but today is why picture video. so we could have been not all of them except for it to come home to sell her, choose life for us. and the good thing and capital amman just reminds you. she's been along with a team reporting from that because he's ready government, i'm probably a single authority bundle just here from

a boarding inside israel and the occupied at west bank and all the seep seems to of joy in hostages square in tel aviv relatives and supporters of what seemed developments right closely. indeed, especially as a master laid the announcement of the names the list of at least being announced was delayed by a few hours. give us a sense of the anticipation of what this moment means the the, well, there's been a lot of anticipation for the release of all of the captives from gaza as part of this deal. but you have to remember that this is only phase $1.33 of them will be released as part of it and the rest are set to be released in phases $2.00 and $3.00. but it's still unclear if we're going to get there. but let's talk about what had on folded today in hostage square. this is an area right in the heart of tell a v that's become symbolic for the family members of is really captive for the bring

them back now movement, that's the protest movement that's been lobbying for a deal against the is really government to secure the captives release, so they've been there every single week, protesting against the government, trying to put that pressure on benjamin netanyahu. and in recent weeks, since the deal had started on january 19th, they've been gathering there to look at the 1st images of these captives who are being released in guns. a bi fighters from us is military wing. the uncle sam are games and there's a lot of relief within a 0 that this deal is taking place. but look, there's a lot of anxiety that this is going to be the rail after benjamin netanyahu. this trip to washington and meeting with the us president, donald trump, who outlined the plan to essentially for the ethnic cleansing of the palestinian territory for an american occupation to displace palestinians from dogs of. so there's a fear that this plan isn't going to go through, but not just because of that. there's also fear and anxiety among these family members that nothing yahoo himself even before this wouldn't want to go back to the

deal. meaning he wouldn't go to phase 2 and 3 because he promised members of his far right coalition, that they'd go back to the fighting after phase one. so the government wouldn't fall apart. but nonetheless, there is a little bit of relief within israel whenever there are captives who are released. there is a system that's put in place by the health ministry. and these really military, once the captives are back in the hands of is really forces where they are given an initial medical check out the, the base and southern israel's re united with immediate family members there before ultimately being airlifted to a hospital in the center of israel right outside of tell a v even a lot of the family members of captives who have been released in recent weeks have said that they are overcome with. 9 of joy, but they are still hurting on the inside because not every single family has felt what they felt and that they are not going to feel complete until the deal was done in its entirety. this is a deal that was on the table 8 months before it was signed back in may of 2024 when it was outlined by the former binding the administration. so there was

a lot of frustration in that aspect because you also had israel's former defense minister, your launch, who said that a lot more captives were lives back in july. when this deal put it actually been brett brought to fruition. but these really governments had waited so long so that not as many captives are alive unfortunately because of the ongoing finding in god's that because of the relentless is really airstrikes. so while there is a sense of relief and joy and israel, there's also that cautious optimism. there's also getting diety, because we do not know what could happen in the next days, weeks and months. and i want to even fill something out for us because come, we, the fitness simply say that this way, the audiences i've seen what we have seen by way of the heavily choreographed and to go the captives by the wing of a mass of cassandra grades and we understand that benjamin netanyahu is to take a note, if that is clearly, i'm happy with the way it has been stage managed,

just talks about to know glossing over what he's seen. how should we interpret that as well? there's a few things to note here. a couple of weeks ago when is really captive our bell, your food was released in southern gaza. the is rarely use how to actually put on hold the release of palestinian prisoners until they could get assurances for mediators. but him, us wasn't going to have those types of releases anymore, where there wouldn't be crowds of people who were watching and flooding the streets, essentially around the captive. so in all of the releases, you saw after that they were very much more organized, a lot more subdued. the crowds were not nearly as large. there was a heavy, heavy presence of arm fighters from have ass essentially blocking the crowds, creating a human fence to prevent any one from going near the vehicles where the captives are so after that had taken place on a thursday when our valued was released. and it's in yahoo stop the palestinian prisoner released,

and then mediators did give him those assurances. and then the palestinian prisoners were released. hannah said that they were committed to the ceasefire deal that they were committed to caring out all aspects of it so that the deal would continue. but today, the prime minister's office had released the statement saying that he doesn't want to discuss what he called the quote for risk images that had come out of gaza today . and he has been criticizing these choreographed releases by having us since the beginning of the war. and that's because the scenes of having us in full force in the streets of gaza with weapons some of these weapons heavy machine guns that received by spiders in confrontations with his really soldiers in different parts of gauze. us this to many on these really right into these really public is a defeat for israel to see him as still very much in control of gauze or something . but nothing yahoo didn't want to see to begin with because one of his objectives of the war was to make sure how much was defeated, both militarily and politically,

something that they have clearly failed doing over the last 15 months. i'm to us, start with this big as a, as well as the rerun of the actual movement of the 100 over the captive se in gun also, it will say showing the top right of the screen, the outside of the offer present. then the occupied westbank kept because what we've seen this morning and cause of having to of course, is it because of the release of a 183 palestinians from prisons, from detention by israel. tell us more about what we're expecting and who we know is potentially on this list. a 183 palestinian prisoners set to be released now that the captives have been handed over to his really, authorities. these real prison service says it's gearing up for the release of palestinian prisoners, a $111.00 of them are palestinians from da. so who had been detained throughout the

war by is really forces with no charges or trial against many of them, they'll be released into guns that where they will go to the european hospital in the southern part of the street for an initial medical check. the other $72.00 palestinians, 5 of them will be going back to occupied east jerusalem, many of which will be going back the majority of those $72.00 to the occupied west bank of us. and then we'll be going to gaza in fact, to be, to forward it to be living in exile. this is part of the deal of the palestinian prisoners who are being released. there was a campaign for many prisoners to be released to buy him a different names, and israel had ultimately decided that they would release these prisoners if they would live abroad in exile. the prisoners were being released. many of them have live sentences. the highest number is 6 live sentences against one individual. one of them is a prisoner who's been re, who's been in jail for 22 years of

a 27 year sentence. and in fact is really forces had rated his home this morning and attacked his father, who's also a former palestinian prisoner who was released from his really jails. but it's because these are a prison service, had put out a statement saying that they want to limit all expressions of policy and you enjoy . they don't want any sort of celebrations around the present or released. there has been live, fire rubber, bullets to your gas that have been fired at palestinian families outside of the open military present in the occupied west bank. the area of virginia has constantly been rated to avoid any sort of crowds there from welcoming prisoners. so there is a lot of moving parts here. there are a lot of different variables when it comes to the prisoner release, but you have to remember that these are all prisoners who could be reinvested. these are prisoners, has been threatened by his really authorities. these are prisoners who have been called out by name, by the defense minister threatening essentially that they would be assassinated if they returned to, to any sort of armed faction or political life. so there's still a lot of state here for these palestinian prisoners,

or i have done many things that and i'm just all hate to and them on what we've been able to re establish the connection with the how they were moved in cause a city. so let's go back to him to talk about everything that we've seen over the course of the morning. uh, how do we, of course, and piece of painting of a ton of palestinians to gaza. i'm just just being saying that a 111 of the people that are expected to be released were detained from gauze us since the war started. interesting to note honey, the to some of those detain from gaza will be released who are being released were being held in. the notorious catches your prism that was subject to all sorts of investigations with allegations of abuse, sexual mental and physical levels that be as rarely, military and the as ray, the government. what more do we know about the kind of conditions these prisoners would it be kept in those who are now some of lease, some of them, at least returning to goals,

are whether it's not just the from where do where detain inside is really to just center it all started from dogs, us. it'd be on the northern part where these really military storm evacuation centers, hospitals, that residential building, that separated women and from the man and from the younger ones and the day and the man and many other people as well. the from the other 2 groups as well, so the 10 down strip them down to under garments blindfolded them. and the human eyes. they, many of the people who were at the side and made it through the central air. the southern part of the step before the c, as far as told us, many of the horrors that they went through as these really military rounded up palestinians from that goal is just said that these are, that goes into the centers happen to be the schools, the honor was schools or public schools, our deep hospitals or privately owned the clinic, that people were sheltering in under the prefect. the area of these really military is that they,

it's how the house that if the parents are the house militants inside of them. but again, we're looking at a large number of civilians who were dragged from these area interrogated physically, it's 4 chairs and the human eyes before do a transfer to many of the dimensions centers inside dock you. hi. sorry for is that a tory a, some of them is the city demand defense. and since are known for the brutality of the guards, they're against palestinian. that'd be where they were not allowed to sleep. and if they were allowed to actually sit down, do would be making, do only sit on their to see they're not allowed to lay on the ground they were discharged from sleeping well. so sleep that provision as well as the lack of basic supply food and water was only given in a trickle amount just to keep them alive. so a lot of people in the past, the lead says we're seeing where we're at deluxe to hospitality. many of the boxes of allison and release the right to unlock the hosp with us. i will look at their

pictures before and after. very, very disturbing scenes of how they loved without the food, without the, the medicine, without the supplies. many of them had they needed to be on immediate medical care, but they were deprived from that. many of them died inside these, this detention center, particularly given the, the difficult conditions and the fatalities of the guard. then those who were managing this detention center. so for a lot of people now, these people coming out of the prison, i'm out from the jail of these days. rate is after be the day and is more of a risk resurrection for them because we know the moment you step and do it really does it mean the end of your life and there is bad the history of from $96.00 to $7.00 to now it goes to $300.00 of hello city and defense and guidance. 1 outside and solitary confinement by that's really a military because of the negligence, imposing them in terms of the providing, brought proper medical supplies and food, or better condition for them. honey,

i want to talk to you about the implications of the ceasefire agreement because part of the deal is for israel to, for the withdrawal from the net survey. mccardle just remind view is exactly what that is. that splits the northern part of gauze from the southern part of gauze. it's something that the strategies have been keen to control as a way of controlling the freedom of maybe the palestinians of the gaza strip. and now that that will open tell us what the significance of that means. so for postings as well it's, it's a freedom of movement. this is one thing that palestinians, for the past years i've been struggling to gain and it's not only then it's very important or it's also the other crossings and the border that palestinians need always to apply for permits. they need to get permission to cross any sort of border with the commercial or a traveling out of the the god and 50 to afford them in the middle of the gaza strip nets. same for

a door was more of the practical representation of restrictions. the movement is really monetary created the court or prevented people from both sides, only allowed it in one direction and from northern part garza city to the southern part. honey, honey, come on, your calendar there to the kind of do it for you. there is a 2nd to manage just to explain what we're looking at and i'll screens at the moment. so i'm going full frame on some pictures. all these ready minifie vehicles heading of the direction of, of prison. and that is one of the key places where of course, these posting and detainees will be released at some point to in the coming hours. those um, with vehicles bulldozers are going to direction the of the prison we believe to try and prevent any kind of gatherings, any kind of celebration we uh, gatherings to deliberately dump in the mood of those who all keen to see the

release on those who are being held in putting in the detention, we'll keep a close on on that but but to you had a you were discussing the importance of the next room, cordele and it's opening please continue the yes score. so let's room is that the practice or representation of restrictions of move in? so for palestinian as of tomorrow, as per the agreement, it will re operate on allow free movement between southern part the part of distribute means is really monetary has to withdraw completely from the area and allow for freedom a little bit between both sides of the of the golf and from now, from the time that these fire was that now there's really a military prepared for the moment where it's only people will be going into one direction of from the law. had been what the designated tool roads had been on the coast of roads while i had been people were allowed or still allowed to drive your vehicle but all in one direction and not coming back on the coastal road.

pedestrian were only allowed just walk in into the northern part of this trap, and there is the movement between north on and on south. was it quite a free on that on that road? but it's still very difficult because people have to walk this 6 kilometer wides road. this is the size or the width of the 3 core a door that is by the way, used to be an illegal settlements for the past years. it was not until the 2005, the unit laughter withdrawal from the goal is to provide a rated prime minister as your own tool from there and re deployed its army along the border line. so he's rather not fully withdrawal from the golfer, but it more of a re deployment a lift the 3 and forward or so. as soon as the war started, it was an effective tool. a bite is really monitored to separate the 2 parts of the goals and strip i didn't operate as a way of empty and getting back away the northern part of district engaging everyone in the central area. and the southern part of the strip as of tomorrow is the symbol of a freedom,

a symbol of the free movement between the 2 parts of the gods of trip. before that, of course honey, they will be undoubtedly seems to have joy for testing into will be returning to gauze. it took us through what happens to them, how they will be treated, how they will be received, of returning to dogs on the northern pars. and the for that matter is not only just to know the part that we have also a rock behind the eastern fine you and it's a lot of people in the past month, we're not able to get to their homes. and some of the areas are still very dangerous for palestinians to goes back to their homes. good. really monitor. it's still in the old area, but for now guys on the northern part of it will be open for people to come back. there is a joy, there is excitement, there is happiness. but what we see on the ground so far apart from the fog, it's a relief. it's a sign of haul versus the board and forward to rebuild chatter. life is the absence

of, of excitement and happiness as soon as people arrived here being the, to the destruction of all means of life. i mean, no homes, no infrastructure or no public facilities, including hospitals that other essential departments that gift live going on for the past. 2 years are now gone, many of the landmarks, many of the cultural centers, universities complex entirely. the whole goal is a for about is without a single university. without many of the schools which are threatening the future of many of the children in terms of having to proper access their education on other important elements. but know basic the fact that it was walked our foot are still an issue. no show there's and there's really a monitor deliberately preventing these things are from coming in. and we hope today will go by without any surprises. i will see a more smooth flaw of these, a 2 months native population. the amount of course is the hyphen data, honey, but he thinks that 100 a nice and goes to city. well,

that's the textbook of everything that have been happening over the course of the morning. or we'd go book as live for us and tele visa and it's very political commentator. and joining me in the studio is probably the mastery professor of media studies at the defined super graduate studies along with still to america, professor of public policy. i'm, i've been kelly for university a very well welcome to all 3 of you. there's an awful lot to, to explore here. but mohammed starting with the because we have seen these hand overs this as a 5th, as part of the 1st phase of this and see spa becoming increasingly more stage managed, increasingly more politicized, as opposed as well. um, what does that say to you? does that help home hinder global perceptions of what caused it was all about of the moment? what the posting causing causa is all about at the moment? isn't as a media or express, i'm sure you have something to say. i mean, i, your question is an empirical one. i mean, i, i don't have, i don't have a straight answer for you right now. i mean,

we would have to study that empirically. but what i can say is that how mazda is clearly trying to send multiple messages to multiple audiences here, right? there is certainly a message for palestinians in gaza and also in the west bank and palestinians abroad that you know, we are here. we are vibrant, we are strong, we are in control. you can have confidence in us. what we did on october 7th has brought, even though it has brought certainly destruction. it has also brought some and perhaps benefit by, you know, as evidenced by these palestinians were being freed from is rarely a jails. but there's also a message here for uh, for israel, for that is really public. and for the, for the is really government. these are messages of so i was defiance messages of

strings on messages to suggesting that her mazda is, is still ready to fight if, if it's, if that is absolutely necessary. but also there's a message that i think that is trying to sort of humiliate or embarrass the is really government because it is really government has said repeatedly that it's a goal was to completely a, not a, not away from us. we had benjamin netanyahu saying almost a year ago that he was one step away from eliminating from us. and then, you know, you, obviously you have from us still very much alive and well degraded to a certain extent. yes, we can. yes, but, but again, very much alive and well. and so there's a message there to, to try to humiliate the netanyahu government and, and say to everyone that they were wrong. yeah. talking about the attempt to accumulate enough to know who the government made to him, some of the bandits on stage of salt and said, we are the floods we are the was next day and, and quotations total victory. a reference of course. as a mom, it just said that to prime minister benjamin netanyahu has promised to essentially

eradicate a mass all together. it's a mass using that very visible presence, that this particular event, some kind of bargaining tool within this whole protracted process of, of negotiating a permanent $65.00 to, to some extent. yes it, it must be. but also i think that where like the rest of the world is over now that there can capability to present the strategic stress to israel has been degraded. and i think we have to admit this, that ability to reach to live, even the other capitals with miss house a no longer there, at least not in the same potential as they were 15 months ago. but never, never that never the rest their messages is very important about the processing in preparation is not going to move out of here. and i think the emphasis this time in this particular release when this message is a response to what nothing else. so i'm trump has, has declared that that is our press conference

a few days ago and also just add to what my mother was saying the way they've staged it with this in charlotte, you of i c r c. and this whole process is very important to show the rest of the time us is working within the international humanitarian know their respect that little. and they're trying to their best to make sure that this is how it's gonna, you know, the right conceptual process was understanding things, rounded rules. and then this, i think the thing to another, uh, google for audience. and this is the rest of the world, particularly there to be a nation is not that they understand the super for sure, which in which trump understand the whole issue is ready to kill themselves. to be honest in this announcement 3 days ago, the focus is going to be on the, an old european powers, particularly those will close this trouble, right. of the beginning, britain and france. the, these are the nations that i think the, the message will be not directed to them. and they need to take a step and they, they need to now intervene and hopefully pull for some kind of international

protection for the palestinians, lead time to apartment. and so that was a long time highlights of the united states to appear with the government to be to be some more paralyzed by what donald trump is being saying. i want to read this statement that a mass has just released saying palestinian people with the great rallying around the resistance and defiance of the occupation confirmed the rejection of all of trumps projects, of displacement and occupation. and that firm determination to pull than the absolute victory that the criminal in espanol who and his army sold for 471 days. all the illusions that was shattered on the land of proud gauze. forever. alright, let's uh, speak to you on that note. i mean, this is a clear on the scoring by how a mass of what that position is the total victory for messing yahoo isn't elusive unobtainable. well,

certainly i think that's from us as message. but i think this exchange of messages fails before reality on the ground, particularly when that reality is con. contrasted with the general fantastic vibe that has been given off by washington and jerusalem over the past few days. reality on the ground is the images that we're saying. it's the, is really a prisoner's returning send. it may see a to obviously having suffered greatly during their time and captivity. it's the palestinian prisoners are returning some after decades in prison, some snatched randomly from gaza without any terrorist contacts. i think it's
