the thoughts in preparing, so you know, the, uh, the departure and the image is ready. top tips from the wi fi account that has been completely loaded goes with to a to saw in the 1st one is the logo of the military wing of how much time the 2nd one for the units of shuttle which is responsible for uh, securing the is where the shop to the dream, dorchester, the tooth period. and to guarantee that is betty. so i won't be able to completely, completely monitor or touch them. now i can see what that one of the, i see all the members too is the same. i figure out who has been responsible for receiving this buddy talk to people who has got out of the car moving. 6 at least of yeah, but to be a $100.00 the is really tips. we actually don't see that the boost of fighters are finalizing these last minute. our restructuring their own at the

commodities on fight through that they are trying now to make the last round. no one will they kick them on this as you can see has come out of his vehicle with his rates for you, which is ready. rifles. that's has been a change from these very soon. we just need to pick this up and put the top whole thing in the hands of how you talk. and right now he has agreed to the i c o c official and usually they are given gloss. but the confirmation on the hand opened wellbeing is very top to some of the i see also you all were supposed to be for custody, texting the movements, and the trunk of is by the captain. these last minutes verbal confirmation has been hardly required in order to guarantee a smooth hands o box. and this must fight with this black uniform and palestinian rich copy of which is

a the symbol of resistance that had been widely seen over the course of the past. few decades is. 1 going to uh to make sure with that culture which is good for fractions have been going as what has been widely agreed upon. and he is a triangle shown to confirm the identities of these by the captive schools will be reduced just within a few minutes. now he returned back along, accompanied 5 v i c r c a member a to the vehicle on now the uh, the top of the vehicle has been opened. um no, uh the i c r c mon bus stop there to check on the web being obese. by the cottage, as you can see at the moment in the frame. now this thing has been, was organized the dates. now they have the chicks on the uh, they have a check on the where being at the is where the truck tips. um they had moved to the stage, an old up to sign the hand over, pay pop out the hand over pay, but they, they completely now taking charge sitting down on the table that has been widely

come, a flag by the palestinian military factions with 2 palestinian flags being completely set on the 2 on the top of the stables, and now they are assigning papers that have been widely and carefully prepared. teresa would that be all hands oval peroration. they successfully taking place? probably the most spiked. uh um the i c r c. female what a professionally managed to. 5 now, assigning this uh how you find your exchanging papers to sign on. birth certificates that use what it given to us. i see i see as a part of the teams for corrections tonight by the minute 3, waiting on how much this process is now documented by the different media agents. these are on the sides of the hand old box. and once they finish that are completely signing these papers, the p come on, the web returned back to the vehicle up until late stuff starts,

especially the houses opened the release of the is very tough to so i see all the bit is kinda like a top move or to the is ready saw gonna be is ready for the is very military to undergo initial medical checks. they have, uh, presumably, you know, finish their uh, their signatures. and now they off standing up on guard and given the last minute restrictions. now they are moving from the stage that has been set in the middle of this request and everyone's eyes right now. are completely moving to the vehicle, not, not opening it still was for the is really cap tips to be released. now the, i see, i see the guys doing it latest a confirmation about the signing of the. uh huh. and over for the management of this. oh, i see. i see. and now i know, but what go has come out from his via tube. now we are expecting the,

the release of the is very captives very shortly. and to see what sorts of health conditions that really have been witnessing during the civic use period. and we need to remind us about the published and it was done. she has published a video for the it's ready captive alexander, to bundle as he was a post to the beach for sure. and he was 18 in a very, a very good condition away from besides of these various intelligence community which could be assigned that. who's got uh, really above the funds of the grounds and now they started to come out of the big goals as the last sort. 12 preparations. now the, i want to fight just have to open the door a know alexander, to bundle this up is ready. tested is well dressed, he has been given clean clothes and he is now taking the last minute uh, 5 twos on the document text. since i know that to be lights,

i use bites of palestinian on the facts since he's in a very good health condition. he has been a while and grunted a sort of gift from the palestinian all factions that are taking uh $5.00 to $75.00 toes. uh to be like to use and this is uh, this is where the captive has been empty pallets and unit as long as you had skipped. typically that's one of you surrounded by the fighters of the palestinian islamic jihad, he's moving to the stage, possibly to greet the palestinian, the crowds who have come today to the sides of the hands. oh, but this has been a very repeats. it seems that has been well or cut straight to it by palestinian factions. now he is a standing in the middle of the stage, looking at the crowds of civilians. he at the captive. now we can literally see based bodies, read captives are now coming to the state. you are surrounded and this quoted. but how most of these lemma jihad fighters, all of them are now completely looking in

a very good health condition of the off will dress. that as these quotes has been white, big depends on what you see interesting to points out that they have been drawn to guns with the palestinian map. on the other hand, they are holding a certificates for their, their release with their photos on it. and with the palestinian map inside one of these that has been a granted for these very attractive. so you can see now at the moment in the space and behind them is the, uh, is the uh, seeing the old rooster then the holy city that has been widely seen as a symbolic, religious and cultural identity for public stimulus. now, of the military of fights is trying to finalize. no one of these by the captives had talked to mike a taking the mike a know started talking. let's take a listen as well as eric. i just also want to point out that uh,

the 3 uh captives that as being handed over a jewel nationals, uh old man on the 50. so she had driven all the is a russian is right, and he's 29 years old. so doing nickel chin, he's 56 years old. he's an american as riley and le whole 46 years old. is an intent in is ready. now old 3 were taken from the southern israel on october, the 7th, and obviously have been held since then. they are part of a list of 9 mean that is relevant sisted on adding to the 1st phase of the 65 deal . i'm us. what does it count them as soldiers, as royal insisted that they not that they are civilians. and as we've been talking about as being one of the major sticking points to the negotiations over the last month or so tearing, can you just explain how today has been different?

this is the 6 hand daughter of a captives. how this is playing out, how it's different to, to the other 5 that have come before well, this time is extremely different in comparison with the previous changes. and for the i'm the oldest night you too, bye bye. this house, the need is limited to house on the bed and the military wing of how much previously one or 10 to opus has been widely criticized for the very 10 nature and yet see if that has been accompanied by the release of these many captives in particular close to the house of how much this political bureau we got. yes, in law, in the hon. eunice, but the choice of dislocation is also in the city upon us and give us a clear indication that kind of spending on fractions trying to show and to a signal that the off in charge on demonstrate the control to conduct a very well organized and will sometimes

o bucks of these when it comes to it's now we can see this table coordination made between how most of these lemma jihad regarding the deployment of the fights is the roots of the vehicles that have been used. transporting these valued customers and the most with the vehicles that have been used to uh, accommodate um, to transport the cabinets as by the by dues of bikes is the, is these kind of a corporation also reflects a very significant nature of the very negative nature between somebody's gonna have to have them this time, palestinians all what a watching closely, what is happening on the ground without any sort of tempe in order to avoid. i mean, unless this request isn't regarding the hands or button to avoid the triggering 5, the extra the months by the is mainly aside a regarding the hands of these men to come. because apparently they just kept looking at very good condition and health condition. but the captives were,

were released in the previous uh, group on the batch of uh, the previous batch of the cap has been, have been widely in a very detour, racing health condition due to the lack of a sent you a medication on speed of destruction or entry to the cause of start, but this one you can see at the, in the frame. now you're taking the boat to 74 inches and the look old and a very good health conditions with different slogans given to them and depths with the palestinian flags and certificates for their captivity periods. so tom, apparently this is one of the searches and all those of these many types of who are right now. uh, getting a uh, gets in and out from the stage um moving and approaching slowly to the vehicles of the i see our senior score, which is by most typically um flights is from us and the is let me to jihad, um,

they are moving slowly. uh, holding a little bit gets um to the um, the companies that were presented by the uh, military range of how much on these lemme do you have uh at mid february, multiple cheese and celebrations made by level codes um crowds of civilians whole come today to the size of the hand over now it has been officially handed over to the i see all seats and members of the semester will commit to direct course has received 2 teams now inside the vehicle waiting for the use of the 2nd is ready tested. who is moving now from the stage to the to the i see all seat vehicles of the album. and now the source of the populations are highly or frustrated. and usually i happen on the sides of these rarely drove

the sides of palestinian. we can see that a, the seconds is why the top citizens slowly approaching to the vehicles of the i see all see it has been assaulted by fighters who off housing is very rifles. now. everything on the ground in fact, has been why do subject to the choice of what steps? choice of location uh, images and the um, the uniform stuff, the off completely and we ring has been our cut straightened. now disruptive has been greeted palestinians who are watching patiently. the release of hold is very captives from our and he's one that you had said to take. now he has been handed over to to i c r. c members. and additional protection is comprehensively documented by both factions and the i, c o. c. it has confirmed the receiving calls to is really just waiting for alex on dr. bundled cool. you can see the most,

and it's just still waiting for this done to move to the vehicles of the i c r c. people here have been completely following the release of these where the captain. so they say that this time, the level of discipline is highly of it cannot be combat in comparison with the previous releases of these very cuts. it's a due to the that required something called make chart for the release of these by the captain is moving. he is a 29 year old and that is right and there was a big loss. big joe, with the palestinian fighters for securing his life during this activity period is, is quoted by 2 sites from the palestinians. the approach to the vehicles of the i see i see, and now they have been to be handed over to the international committee will direct us. now the subsequent preparation is next week. the subsequent preparation will

take place now, well, completely be the moving of the vehicles of the i see all seats, how to from the old site, including the nation with how much of a city as long as she had used what it was before with 5 vehicles from the palace and the mom's back seems to ensure the safety as the all moving forward to the closest point to is really expecting. now the release of the 369 palestinian destinies from east very jails. 300. 33 of them are the tvs had been arrested. strides the is ready. okay. ration forces . it drops off with the something to talk during the military grounds operations inside garza and out the vehicles all the i. c, r c started to slowly getting ready to move from the room that has been widely scratched not only by the public,

the functions also by local police comes today to ensure the stability of the hand open. now loose vehicles as part of to move. and as we have mentioned, would be for the 2 that has been widely from these very settlements in order to secure the departure of the vehicle to value c. r c is very comfortable to get that they are moving now and reaping the sides and palestinians of solitude to celebrate. i'm at a very amazing stage of jubilation that has been widely seen amongst all the city of the great single practice of the babies. how most of these lemma jihad was assigned to be successful. and all of these very attractive in this location is what happened today. we is ready kept this has been handed over to the i see, i see from the city of con, newness, and we actually expected the release of the 369th public opinion subsidies from is

really take us to host families all waiting in the rookie and possibly some of the other side of the city will tell you this white thing. i'm just need to be for united with them. but now once news is ready, come to to be handed over to the i see all saved. it will, they will move to the is very sorry to undergo initial medical checks. that will, it's something that will be in their health. and later they will be reunited with the principal to some families who have been working closely. the scenes all hands over on the release of those captives who spend more than 15 months in the policy and inspection skipped civic faith as they have been released today in a very well strict securities. seeing that has been widely praised by locals and has been completely going this mostly since the 1st moment till the moment they be they have been handed over to b, i c r c. i know they are making the journey back. it is ready sides to be reunited

with the assemblies. okay, thank you so much, terry. so running us through all of that, a very well disciplined, organize, well cust rice. it's a, as meticulously planned, and like you say, a chosen location as well as every elements that was designed to send a message to, to israel as well as the us, i'm sure will so fascinating to see the condition of the 3 captives. uh they did not uh from what we could tell appear malnourished in any way. it looked like they had been well taken care of and had relatively new clothes on as well. of course, the release has been met with celebrations in hostages square in tel aviv with families of both health and guys that have been gathering throughout the war since october the 7th. so as you can see, these are live pictures in the bottom right of your screen. uh,

as the families and loved ones. she had the release of the 3 captives. before on this we're gonna go to know a guy who's in the to dining and capital amman. she said, because the is ready government and tell us the needle 30 band al jazeera from reporting from inside israel as well as the occupied westbank. no. can you just run us through the reaction from what you've seen inside as well a well, i mean one can only imagine a, just the amount of joy and relief the families of those 3 is really captives. are feeling right now. and the fact that they've been able to see them through the, under the, the screen most probably it is encouraging and brings that a lot of hope to the families of other is really kept. who are hoping that this, these fire would hold for been extremely critical of their government for stalling on negotiations. for phase $21.00 is really soldiers are supposed to be released.

this is a critical phase. and with that, the cease fire, the families of those captains really have very little hope that they would see their loved ones at back home, alive and safe. and so a lot is going on right now. tom, it is really, it's not just the feelings of happiness which are, of course, present relief that the 3 captives look like they, as you said, were taken care of. of course, these captives have not all been held in the same location. they did not have the same experience of captivity. all of them, of course, in during very difficult conditions like the rest of the population, surviving in many instances or getting injured from is really bombardment affected by the is really bad on food, on medication, on basic supplies. so this is a sign of hope. we've heard from some members of the families of these really

captives calling out the stalling tactics of the is really prime minister, accusing him of playing with the a freight with the possibility of freedom for their sons and really trying to push for those negotiations to start to conclude successfully so that every last is really captive is released there is i have to say that that one sided a approach if you will, to the formula. a lot of symbolism is here. but every side in this equation have their own experience, their own perspective, these really the families of is really captives. want to see those captives released. there was very little support, according to opinion polls for the, you know, the plight of palestinians and gods that one might argue this is understandable for the families of captains, but overall wide a support it as well. not just for a possible resumption of hostilities of attacks on gaza,

but even of the mass force displacement of the entire population of gaza as the us president tech proposed. and that's where perhaps the disconnect for outside observer observers lie is born a wants to see the cease fire continue. but at the same time is really quite supportive of a solution that would ethnically cleanse the entire area of its native population. and know this is obviously the, the 1st half of the events that we're expecting to take place today. the other half is the release of the 369 post indian prisoners and detainees in the top right of your screen. you can actually see for prison in the occupied with bank. can you just talk us through exactly what's going to happen there later on today? at some point when the, when those prisoners and detain is released of the well, let's locate the offered prison for our viewers. this is

a military detention facility built on a land in back to me, a town on the outskirts of the, in the occupied west bank in this military detention facility. there is a military court that sentences dozens of palestinians every day to imprisonment, some without charge or trial in all foot prison. there is a section for a palestinians, the taken from gaza. it is called a section of help from that detention facility. $333.00 palestinians taken from garza since the war started will be transported to the gaza strip. they would have gone through a clearance procedures. many of those released in the earlier batch in the box last week said that they were deprived of sleep. they were left in the outside square of the prison over night, a treated really quite roughly the female prisoners who were released and earlier

by just us spoke of being dragged from their hair at the close to the time of their release. that threatened to the fascination at times if they resume any kind of political activity or association with public study and factions, the majority of palestinians released from the occupied west bank will be deported . they will be exempt from their homes and taken to egypt. only 24 of the 36. so 12 only of the $36.00 palestinians from the occupied westbank including jerusalem will be united with their families in their homes. and the reason why we're not speaking yet, of the names of those 36 palestinians who are serving life sentences is because sometimes last minute changes do happen. and we saw that in several of the exchanges. but one of the prominent names that were pointed out,

including by is rarely media is from others. but who is he? he was a very close a of model one and but we'll see a senior up front the leader who is also in is really prison. he is a hoped to be released in the 2nd phase of this cease fire agreement. so a lot of anticipation now across the occupied westbank and also in gauze where the largest number of palestinians will be released later in the daytime. okay, thank you so much. no, we will, no doubt speak to you throughout the day as we await the release, nor die for us an amount. let's take a closer look at the details of this exchange and 3 jewel national is riley's, had been released by uh, alexander to finance. so do we deco chin and see a hole in exchange as well? is it to handle the 369 palestinians among them? 56 who have been serving life sentences and is rarely presence $24.00 of them will be deported. that the majority of the $333.00 palestinians from garza and were

detained during the war 3 will be released to occupied east jerusalem. and i to the occupied west bank. well to unpack, uh, all of the events over the last hour or so. we joined by several guests in studio. i'm in elementary and 200 southern thank you very much for sticking by us, by from the doha institute for graduate studies. we're also joined intel of a fi or a drum, a founding director general of the jerusalem chris comp fits. what if i can begin with you mohammed? how do you say the last arrow? sorry, as we're saying, the captive handed over in a very well disciplined, well organized, quite calm manner. what did you make of this morning? it's pretty much as expected. i think everyone was really interested to see the conditions that the captives uh we're in because uh, the captains who, who are released last week, we're not in, in, in great condition obviously. and that's a, that's of concern to people in,

in israel, but also people in the west in the united states and european capitals and western media. of course, there's no concern about the palestinian prisoners in the west are almost all concern. certainly whether they are elderly frail have been abused or sexually assaulted or are on oxygen tanks. that's not really of much concern for folks in the west. however, what we notice is that these 3 chapters, as i said we're, we're in a day looked at least uh to be in, in, in good condition. so that's, that's encouraging. and that could, that could bode well potentially for future releases as well. so and again, it underscore as the fact that he or the conditions are very uh, an unpredictable guard different uh, tunnels and different houses and apartments that the captors are constantly moved from to evade. there is rarely a indiscriminate bombing of gauze and so, you know, and to say nothing of the, the, the mountain nutrition, right?

the, the, the, basically the forest and starvation policy that, that israel was pursuing from the start, which it, which is indiscriminate right? it affects the palestinians, but it also affects the, the captives. but again, encouraging that they, that they all look to be in, in good condition. yeah. as we heard from a target, correspondents and gals are basically how well feed you out depends on exactly where you have been forced to go for us to stay after 1516 months of this riley pump. um and uh not does this both well today. the last several, so does this both well, so for phase 2 of these, these funds. well, not necessarily. so what we are seeing now is phase 2 is being implemented um and like as part of the agreement. but then, um, a phase, the 3 the signals coming from israel and does not. they're not very encouraging. these are really side is obviously unhappy. the scenes were coming out of guns, and now they indicate that the command and control of how mazda is still there,

intact, to a large extent, they are very well organized. they, you know, and also if, if i, when i read between the, the lines you would see that they actually have been successful innovating. one of the most powerful intelligence services in the region. they have been, you know, successful and avoid in detection of the location of the hostages and the location of the fighters. and also, you know, the image is coming out of one of the hostages, pushing outside. it means that, you know, the challenge in a few likely the is there really intelligence community? i'm sure that there's some people and some directors of indian totally just communicating israel. i'm unhappy about the scenes and what is coming out. but now you know, all of this together is a clear signal to israel that they would have to deal with the, with him us. and you had to design me and then guess uh, but uh, how would that bode? uh, if it's a board wells for the, for the next phase,

i think the next phase would be implemented. but before that either is there a way to push for a new conditions or they would request or impose an extension. okay, i want to go to every now who's standing by it and tell of a for us how it has all of this. how have the last hour? oh, so what we've seen from con units, how is this will played out inside this route because they were many, many messages for is released from inducing yahoo as well as the us and, and donald trump, right throughout the, from a sign saying no migration accepts the jerusalem, the maps that were given to the 3 captives with uh, gals are on it basically told thing. and yahoo saying that. so the palestinians, i'm us isn't going anywhere.
