. this is the 2nd batch of a capsule released from this area. and you can see now at the back your ground, this scalable preparations may be released. so if we kept tips in garza on phones in a high, you quote tonight says, must be a mock by strict security protocol. and some pull the displays of power. we can see that up those functions. how most of the palestinian islamic jihad have been blowing the fight says who have been seen completely dressed in black, come from a flag uniforms with tactics. it was best a too much to cry, both as assigned as power and the all remaining in the position of a strength to basically there are something information, ensuring no unauthorized individuals into the weeds, the hands of, of the captives and on the, on the front in the frame you can see at this stage in which the, the i c, r c members and the key come on does a sub for gas with

a completely solving the hands over a certificate with behind this table that you can see all the uh, images of how mazda is top military leaders, and in the middle events that have been remote to some, some, some sports, and in our big q broke the english on the written following, and talked to us, most of them be witnessed. we all the soldiers with different flags for, for our nation. they completely. 5 represented to give them the folks so i believe we have seen different lines of you by saying that we've crossed all of us with different publishers. all these very military phases that have been shown by the prices of both from us and the palestinian is that makes it hard. and then the other side weekend completely see that the uh our lines um disbanding information behind your phone. so yeah, yes. thing was sitting on the sofa and the house that was targeted in a rough estimate with the family total. sure. most of them in the front of his eyes

as a saw that promising infections always completely on the palette sitting in the town . no capital shall russo, them thought the preparations have been completely taking place in a very pre determined designated location which is widely secured, quite quite says. and this is completely a sort of highly organized preparation in which we can see civilians have been surrounding the area. and they are completely and they are completely. 5 guided by the fight, just to cooperate with them from basically the moods here during this, this sort of exchange varies and open carriers. 3 main elements control defiance. and really, if we can see that most of the other groups to in garza project confidence, ensuring down the over happens a strictly on that time and starts about trying to maintain the string militarized systems reinforcing the idea that they are negotiating from

a position. oaks trend certainly appear for product center and we can see the cheering celebrating thing because 300 such as the non how this thing and that to me is, will be released today as a part of the exchange on the deals. but we need to remind all of you is that some sort of last minute changes, some really to henry the uh, the hands of approach to as far as we have been troubled by the military ring upon my face, confirmed that these preparations have been taking place since yesterday's nights and they have been deployed forces incorporation with the palestinian islamic jihad during the early hours of this morning to ensure the success of a smooth hands over the as well. if you see, we can see that the entire place has been corrected by the flags of both factions on the level of the palestinian stage. especially we are fixing the release hope is when it comes to the right home. at the i see all the members in order to stop the

implementation of the hub error box. this is the 1st time that the city of han units, witnesses the hand over the homepage when it comes to everyone here is predicting a right below. okay. i see i see a crew members very soon as everything has been deliberately curtis and then bring different messages to the as well. the size regarding the choice of was at the stage that you can see of the bucket around that choice of colors. i'm the choice of the public opinion that has been won by those follow, sending faxes with different trifles. that has been widely changed from is rarely so just as a result told. but the southern fact talk such organizing them over is reflecting a very well proposed loans that has been widely conducted on the restrict through security images and protocols. as a b i, those policy infections are sending clear indications out there are still taking

control of the entire gaza strip. and they managed to release of the these really comfortable and the very successful circumstances. despite the repeated the presence may 5, not only there is but it's one minute stop by the. 2 the from to release all the is what is tested, this stuff, it's a we understand that today only 3 chapters will be released. one of them is in the cup, sivitz, you of the, tell us the name is lemme get on to others. and how much is kept civic for you. so basically the hands over will take place in the city of par units. we need to remind all of us that you sent to upon you, and it has been widely by talk. it says by these very helps you function forces, i should lease the choice of this place. i remove the appraisal from the notification. it's giving me indication that they are received to resume the pricing again and even to resume the product as a brief instruction. it depends on the course and the good she ation. so i thought

taking place for the 2nd phase of this, these products to us, these things. oh, so it's just, it's the same thing. awesome things. different messages to the promising and simple the phones, citing but despite also the most that lose some medic, 3 factions, how things are what they lost. so they charge, apologize in charge of all, i'm reagan shaking from a former position with interiors like you say, uh there was a lot of uncertainty over the last few days that this would even take place to handle the old captives and palestinian prisoners and detainees. there must be a huge sense of relief via that. at this point in time, it looks like everything is on track. a just right now off to the show negotiations made by original magenta's, including egypt and cut off very completely right now uh, managed, managed successfully to close the gaps we come,

us and israel regarding the release of these when they talk to the entry of i'd be happy machine to run by houses fall across the street list from ground 0 basically from the image of the specs about some of the ministry being the palmer has stated that they has freeze. the release of the top to, to ask is, would be released today due to set and violations was that the implementation of the cabin for support of the ceasefire agreement was like to own off site. the significant pressure of being executive by regional mediation, including agencies that you manage to, to adjust that behavior, setting that dollars to commit to the time. so that 3 minutes holdings is very solid to allow for more a, to flow into the gaza. since i've been to a mobile house has have hidden machinery, despite these preparations, despite the really the potential release of things, really tough to say nothing that has been said also regarding heavy machinery and

mobile at houses. it's the tools noticing that the gaza strip needs approximately 200000 more about how the thousands of best place to the city and families are living in the open. and you can barely see this kind of disruption of this area to that extent isn't. are in the very desperate needs to be coming back to properly. so we are to quite following these developments. palestinians are raising the concerns about whether these bodies run minnesota will translate his baffled commitments to into completely concrete factions and allow for the entry of more about houses in, you know, quantities in order to help to cope with the better the price of this visa, this is also quite another these promises were continued appreciate up to the release of the hands of, of the is going to come today to the i see mosse the later on we can see f, b is when the, from minnesota what not extra requests on demands regarding the deal or not,

and 50 to ability of the ceasefire do, will sustain as will be completely accomplished with great success for the efforts of regional mcginn. okay, thank you so much for that, terry. know that we will be talking to you throughout the morning as things develop it and con eunice teracon. but as in for us standing by while we joined by simple gift. now every 20 is the founding director general of the jerusalem press club. he is in tel aviv in the studio with joins by him home at home, every professor of media studies at the door hot institute for graduate studies and whatnot. so i'm assistant professor and critical 6 security studies also at the the hot institute, the graduate studies. thank you very much for joining us. first of all, that's good to you here a. can you just give us an idea of how all of this is being viewed and as well as we wait for the captives to be handed out of the as well. so simpler ever is very,

is blue today. tv screen, i'm hoping to see the 3. okay. yeah. you know, such as to be coming back on about the same time. people will be on the present to event and awesome. it's up to you. what's going to happen even got the next day and what we see now as we look at this stage more. busy for this bare destruction and hopelessness for the part of the statement and just thinking about and then uh, as we speak, the president of the united states and reg as fall on the problems of putting in the removal of these people. because of the problem there seems to be some of the use of mazda but so, so i would, i would hope to see some,

a change in, in, in, in the region some, some better future for the people, little, for god. and as long as her mouth and the stomach, the ability to get the strings there. uh, it's not going to happen. i think everyone wants a better future. so to the palestinians and gaza, it's just a matter of how and how we get there and what it exactly looks like. and i just want to talk briefly about the updates that we've seen over the last hour or so in con units as a moss and islamic jihad set up to handle, have the captives. what have you made of executive health? i've set it up and it looks much more organized and disciplined than some of the other a captive releases. yeah, i mean who by now this is kind of uh, getting uh, almost old hat. all right. we've been here every week for the past. uh, several, several weekends and so it's getting more organized. uh, as we go, obviously israel, who complained earlier about some of the previous exchanges. so it does look

organized. i also think that i'm as clearly continuing to try to project a sense of control and strength. uh, sending a message that they are here that they are a player and that they should be, uh, you know, sort of considered uh in terms of what comes, what comes next and wanting to do is obviously a lot of, uh, contention throughout the week the, the 6, by wouldn't continue the hostages that it kept this would not be handed over in your if you didn't miles back down or did as ralph alden and it's now sticking to this. chris fired great. and i think because to both sides, they are trying to make this deal work, but uh, i want to come into on the release of hostages. they are not on end by themselves. so while the focus is on releasing the hostages, the main focus is about the next day, what a so called the next day. and what we see now is that from us it is taken to it's the end of the deal is real, is a bit more news about it. and which,

which signals that israel might not be committed to. the 2nd phase, what i see now is as both sides as real and the posting inside, they are going to commit to finish the uh, furnace phase, as part of the agreement. but then the tough negotiations would be, what is, what comes up to. now both sides are signaling. if you see the stage now would feed, you know where, where the exchange is going to happen today. you have pictures of the military leaders of how much you have. also on the other side, you know, the song, so you have them on the, you know, personnel, the from, from different posting infections which signals that from us, which they made that very clear. but also signals that from us is going to be involved in the next day. they're not going to give up on it, which does not make israel very happy, is really a officer was made. it made it very clear that they didn't one. they do not wish to

see how much in the next day the united states is what you mean by proposing. uh, some realistic uh, suggestions like um ethnic, something that would amount to ethnic cleansing of the guys. uh but so the contention is there, but the exchange itself is and then it's what comes of the intake stick with us cuz we've probably got a long few hours ahead of us as we wait for these uh, the captives to be handed off as well as the palestinian prisoners and detainees to be released as well. in the meantime, we're going to go to honey mike mood who is in kansas city. i think it just fits. it will stay the same. uh the uh, what is the likely of this morning because this is one of the heavily destroyed neighborhoods in gals or isn't it well tom, for a lot of people here into your neighborhood that happens to be a border line neighborhood been relentlessly, bom, destroyed. we drove within the neighborhood just took a bit of time before we come up for the life position we drove around,

we seen many of the destruction the devastation for the infrastructure of the buildings, the house, the many people who are returning and standing in front of their homes, a quite shocked by the sheer level of destruction if these really military has raised any possibility of life in this neighborhood, despite that people are making their way box, they are returning their setting up. their tends to try to clear the rubble for them. the exchange of cop is today and palestinian deputies who are particularly those were kidnapped in the past 15 months and detained by this really monetary and torture for them. that's a sign of really they are coming back. many of them actually belong to a she's a neighborhood that, but at least you know, we, we spoke with a couple of the family. they were who describe the many of them the went through the name to say many of the, their family members their, their relatives or friends or colleagues. they are coming. they are going to be released as of today, batch of palestinians returning to the gaza strip. but what's really important now

for a lot of people's the success of this batch of exchange is the entry of bulldozers and trucks and heavy machinery because everybody is waiting for the past 20 days. and since the time since the ceasefire took effect, and since the time they were allowed to return to their homes in this part of gaza strip, to remove rebels, to reopen his trees, to reopen roads, and to hold them reset. and to start rebuilding, their shudders like this is what's important for them because for the past days is really mandatory, as many quite is restricted about the, the entry of those that are in trucks and heavy machinery or what we seen in the past. these with terms of a trucks coming in carrying food parcels on other necessities that are not necessarily important for cuban survive. i'm talking about the complimentary stuff, not the food parts of the are the needed for people to survive. but other materials can comparison to equipment, bike, heavy equipment, machinery below is,

are trucks and other medical supplies. we did not see these cummings, we, we seen some trucks carrying medical supplies, but limited amount and they're going directly to international organization, bike unit. but other than this, we did not see any major items getting in that will set the stage for improvement and living conditions after 15 months of devastation. okay, honey, can you just give us a bit of an explanation about how desperately needed these component and shelters understand that 200000 mobile homes tense in such a required to, to help shelter people because so much of guns that has been destroyed well is, let's take example. uh, there's a neighborhood where every way we look at here level of destruction, to all means of why fi we are in an area that housed at least 4 schools here for primary education and higher education here a private clinics,

then charitable health organization, many of the residential building today and neighborhoods is one of the densely populated area in the eastern part of the golf industry of a 120000 people lived in this part of garza city on the eastern part. but what we're seeing here is what's needed immediately is the mall by all the towns to get in. so people instead of building or trying to stay in temporary shelters, and by the very shoulders were talking about their remaining the school buildings that after being destroyed, please you'll find couple of clause rooms are one large rooms of this. the school of this public facility is still intact, so people are thinking that as, as the temporary shoulders men of the buildings are still a standing on a trip collapse. we see an example of during the storm last week and the heavy rain . it's close to 3 children were killed as they were inside. one of the building that was severely damaged on the wall, just collapsed on the person. be that you,

they and killed them these, these are the risk that people are taking when moving, insight them very at shelters. now, mobile homes and tense are needed because right now people are re cycling materials . if from the past 50 months, they used to build their tents and 4th displacement like mosby and western part of the central area and western part of gauze. and so they have the right, they're not, but these are war now it's materials not sufficient enough, not providing the protection, the warrant, and the privacy needed for people. this is one of the issues that a lot of people talked about compared shoulders. i'm not providing families with the privacy that they need. there's a psychological problem here and families to try to intervene and then solve the trauma that have been inflicted on their children. but they need a little bit of a privacy to do that tens. now in their actual forms or their parent forms are not providing the protection, the warrant, and the privacy needed for them to, to do their family sort of job of intervention and helping their children. that all

of the $60000.00 mobile homes are car event. none of them being allowed to him that's leaving many people in the off in here like the area we were standing here. people to set up dents here. but again, not, not sufficient. the, not many of the tense of the 200000. we're talking about 4 percent of the $200000.00 stands. they're supposed to be proper and can of tolerate that. i know, but tell her right the, the, the worst sitting with our conditions are not being allowed in the vast majority of people now close 80 percent are display of people in areas like this cemetery or use because homes are not available the setup. they are done on the, does it crated cemeteries that were destroyed by this really monetary. okay, thank you so much for all of that honey, honey. mike, mood for us. the in gaza assessing. i just want to fit the scene for you, we watching and waiting for the 3. is there any captives to be handed over by islamic jihad and from us to the international chrisman of the red cross?

so let's take in some of the atmosphere from a ton unit the we can say dozens of house and inside is getting ready to ensure that hand to the international committee of the red cross. shortly in the meantime, the weekends ago said no, a guy who is in the to dining and capital oman. she's the because the is there any government as well as the palestinian authority of bandages era from recording from inside israel as well as the occupied with bank. the other half of, uh, today is the palestinian prison. the end of tiny release fits to to happen can just protest through what we're expecting in that regard. no. what's on this is the largest batch of palestinians to be released in these

exchanges. we will see about 333 palestinians taken from gaza, forcibly disappeared as the un. what's that from gaza? they returned to their families. most of them are from northern gaza. many of them have been in is really captivity for a year or even more. and we will also see 36 palestinians sentence by is rarely military courts to live sentences. some of them serving several life sentences. now most of those men will be exiled. they will be deported out of palestine of the occupied palestinian territory. and uh, we will see a number of them released to the occupied westbank and occupied east jerusalem. and already we saw over night raids by israeli soldiers to the homes of those families, warning them against heavy as any signs of celebration when they receive their

loved ones for bidding them from receiving anybody to congratulate them on that freedom. and so we will see there will be tense moments as expected, as we've seen in past weeks in the law and occupied east jerusalem awaiting the release of those pablo, city and prisoners. and then of course, those deported will be sent to egypt from which they will go to several other countries that are willing to receive them in hospice. no. can you just talk us through the, the conditions that the palestinians attorneys that were taken from gaza? what was the conditions that they were held in and if they have a charged with anything or who knows as they have not been charged tom, in fact, human rights organizations have prepared several reports based on sworn testimonies

of survivors of those experience. and they describe the conditions as how there was the notorious states teen mom detention camp, a military detention comp setup exclusively for palestinians taken from gaza. there we know from testimonies of survivors of a former soldiers of even doctors or medical students who were in charge of attending to the prisoners. that there was a system of torture, abuse, medical procedures and applications. a is performed on a prisoners with minimal medical attention, sometimes with that and this is easier. there was there are several documented cases of sexual abuse including right of those palestinians taken from gaza. so these are circumstances that are the young ones capacity to imagine really and even those were taken to a military presence in the occupied westbank like also near the lower that's

a sizable number of palestinians from guys are held the section in which they're held at top is separate from the rest of palestinian prisoners and it is called the section of health these up prisoners. these detainees are deprived of proper food, proper medical attention. they do not receive medication. they are entitled to a one minute shower every 10 days so that most of them are released with skin conditions and infections. many of them would require hospitalization and medical attention upon their release and return to their families and even palestinians who were detained and imprisoned before october. 7. tom speeds of her sick conditions, many cold negligence of limits to their food intake, of depriving them of any access to the outside world. so they have no idea what's

been happening since october southern they have no access to their lawyers. certainly no family visits and very limited ability to contact other prisoners within the same facility their health. so the conditions are really severe. and we saw that reflected in the way that these release prisoners appear. they have lost considerable amount of their body weight. many of them are weak, many of them are 2 weeks to even the box, so they're held by the paramedics and take them to house. okay, thank you for all of that. no, no doubt we will be talking to you in the coming hours as well. no, i take for us in a month. so we're waiting for the captive release to get underway. him off, hes just released a statement that says ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu is procrastination and attempt to avoid the agreements requirements or an if it to save himself and his government. it says the group will not allow the agreement to file and that is right and has no alternative thought to release the risk of the prisoners. the

statement goes on to say that the mouse is waiting for the occupation to stop implementing the humanitarian protocols based on premises from the media is. it concludes by sending him off resume the exchange process in accordance with its commitments to the media uses. we're going to go to re enroll, meeting, founding director general of the jury, still in press club, as well as a retired colonel from the is ready air force. he joins us from the tel aviv already. can you just give us an idea of, i mean, it's a direct challenge to yahoo. so i'm us, i'm about gonna hold up to the range of the deal and then even younger has to as well well, this is all, i think we have focused on the, on the immediate advance in the.
