the we are the ones traveling the extra mile there are the media, don't go, we go there and we give them a chance to tell their story, the, [000:00:00;00] the, the put on them. and this is the news our lives from doha. coming out for the next 16 minutes, 6 is ready, captains of exchange for 600 in 2 palestinians, so long as a swamp of the gauze as these 5 deal. the u. s. president, back pedals on his proposal to forcibly expound palestinians from gaza, saying it was only

a recommendation. tens of thousands of people from democratic republicans, congo, slee is m. 23 rebels surround another if she towns. plus. i've had very good talks with food and i've had not search for talks with ukraine. they don't have any cards, but they play a tough the world words between washington and to investigate a lot of mental davis, the patient behind the scenes, the home of a central valley, 6 captives held in gaza as part of the seas 5 deals with as well. let's look at some live pictures from gossip. what preparations underway falls is where the captors will take in june the ex or the 7th attack. and now the 2 have been held by

him all since they entered garza on the on explain circumstances adoption decade ago. and return is where a little free 600 into palestinian prisoners and detainees the largest number since the cx 5 came into effect was in a month ago. they have a change comes with ours off it as well said it has identified the remains of captive. should he be bossed off to him, off handed over another body to the red cross on friday. 5 minutes to benjamin netanyahu had to choose the group of bonnet using the cx, 5 digging 5 or 10 in the wrong body. i'm off said the remains are mixed with others in the rubble as a result of in his riley strike on the building with the boss was held. let's. let's take a closer look at the 76 change set to take place between israel and homos. the 6 captives to be released, eliot cohen tiles show home ownership calls on the when could hisham outside and a vera and then get sued, an exchange as well, literally 602,

palestinian prisoners and detainees. 50 of them, a 7 lives sentences in his riley jails. $445.00 would obtain from gone. so during the whole, for animal and mental speak with home the sol, who with whose at a mom, hunting the for the standing by for rise. and alice say that in central gaza. the 1st, let's go straight to alpha and speak with product a service of thought. it took us through the scene where you are in preparation for this may suspend these well, uh, basically during the past 24 hours, the military legal commercial, cassandra gates has been completely, it's a priority. this is disturbing. and roughly, in order to hand over these fairly chopsticks, we understand it's a berkeley, that's the, the hand overs will take place in 2 locations in rough off and in. and those are right for 2 d car,

but we have been told by the minute 3 week of how much the 2 is ready. captives will be handed over to the i see are see here in this location, in rough on the east by the cuts. it's off a broadband guess so, and i'll show how they will be handed over in the southern part of a rough i $68.00. and it's quite clear that this location has been well prepared by the military, legal pa, mazda, including a key deployment of that, and each on it. um, typically, fights is an old roads, and it leads into the area. and the choice of this place has a very significant symbolism, an indication that it's only one kilometre away from philadelphia. cordele, which is right now under the east, by the control. and it's one of the closest points to ruffle and come up with some of the 1st things where do 28 tops comes into the gaza strip. and we have seen that part of the preparation that what made

a 3 by those that have been why did you for right to, with the functions of how much this top military lead is what killed the during the is released military campaigns on the strip. we defend slide full that has been widely at a top to the jury and how much does that up on east valley church? where used to be october? the 7th. oh, so with the phone, so yeah, yes and well, how much does that take? some of your chief has been widely attached to the final as you can see, the bucket ground. well, yes, the wall has been killed in a rough. i split the only 2 kilometers away from dislocation alongside with the key leads of rough off brigade. i would have done that too. so apparently we can't on the side, the side. we are waiting for the arrival of the i. c r. c members who are expected to arrive to the sides very soon. and the general sentiment on the ground to reflect the will organize scene that has been widely seen as this could y'all took

a comparison with the previous hands of is that took place in other parts of district as typically into came today to witness this hands over and to move later to do repeat hospital to welcome to reach or at least 445 promised to be in debt to these who are expected to be released today, which is considered to be the largest batch of public opinion that needs to be released from case by the prison since the own set of the current sees far agreements. thank you very much for that for now. that as thought of was in joining us live from alpha and southern gaza, let's go to honey, my fluid. he isn't on the say that in central guys a you are at the all the handle have a site, tiny washer you seeing and here and well, it just the star with the fact that this is the 2nd time release on a bill to the hostages and and kept, is it from the central area of the gaza strip and just compared to the pos,

our we already is v and a significant increase in the crowd, the number of the crowd who gather at this point, and then the fight on the refugee camp. and the 3rd, have you gotten a as a major refuge account in the central area of the gaza, for event? as soon as people have started to port into the area, we've seen a reinforcements from uncle sam gate members on the ground in an attempt to maintain orders to maintain safety and to ensure the security of the process in the coming hour or so where it is being the space being already prepared with banner in the back reading as follows. 6 the lab knows that people and can differentiate already between it's people and those who are alien do it in reference to those. what did your citizenship and been part of the process of occupying the hell of city and parents are always being already pictures of palestinian a resistance leaders in the background as well as many of the, the,

the palestinian resistance fighters on the ground. creating a barrier between people on the stage, the stage really not just the cause of ha, 30 minutes. was it quite it's full of people and as soon as the crowd started being created, it was it clear uh, from video visibility on in the area. and this was believe to be the area where a red cross vehicle are going to be in the middle here as the soon as the pull out there, as well as the vehicle to carry. the 4th is really top is we were told by one of the brigade, members off at the number on the ground floor of the cop that are going to be released from a new refugee job. all of it 3, there's a symbol of resistance, simple of resilience. some of the, the trees are older than the speeds of israel as one of the older people, the from the fight i've, i've got more of the community leader as

a reference to his farm land in the background windows, really monetary and dated defense rel area is full those his farm land up routing. many of the all of it, 3 of the old is the 3 own in this area on his farm land was 95 years old, older as he said older than the space of israel itself. does it just been right now from the central area? it's compared to pos exchanges. it looks more organized below the more arrangement that puts forward to ensure a smooth hand over of the captive in the coming dollars. yeah, it's been really important, honey, isn't it for the groups that have been handling the release over the last many weeks to show those symbols of resistance, whether it's the olive trees or as thought it was talking about the pictures of the yes and was that also everywhere where he is and off up,

how do you and central garza and we have been hearing that people moving to central gaza because they believe that it might be the safest place to be if this is 5. right. well that is correct. that not all it's the same is the place right now, but it's the only place across the jobs of friends with many of the basic needs that that is available to primarily, i'm mind them. water. water is unusual in northern part of this trip with many of the feeble returning to their homes, are unable to have the proper access to water source, particularly drinking water lit alone for other uses of water. but defense from area as of now, people uh, started to boost on their journey or returning to their home because they are not certain about the sustainability of the ceasefire or its ability to hold until the 2nd phase. negotiations as we were told are, are very difficult. there are many challenges. this is definitely later with many of the difficulties they have,

but it's moving forward. people here do not want to pick matters and then how don't want to take the risk of going back home. particularly at the time where the goal is to war is looming and the rise of which many rigidity statements by his regular because the fear now today is the last that all the top does are going to be released then phase one and the fear. now that is really monetary as soon as it receives the last batch of stop, this is going to resume the war. this has been very consistent with many of the statements by israeli military leaders, as well as on the political level. they use the rhetoric of war and to complete the faith of how mazda at knoxville, loot, victory. just this scary is people of from day making the decision of going back where it is in here. just the other side of the, of the stage. you're across the stage, many of the 10 seer by the hundreds of many of the people who are from northern

goals out. but they decided to stay in this area until phase 2. it started because simply doodle want to keep being displaced from one place to another. honey, thank you very much for that for now. that's funny. my move to joining us with the lasers from on the site up in central gaza. and this is the scene right now and central kind of these people they have gathered as they have the past releases to watch the live pictures from gaza. again, we're expecting 6 israelis to be released today that will be taken by the i c r c from the gods. that's as well. and we're just starting to see those red cross vehicles arriving at the exchange site in alpha. now let's bring in, i'm the son who's she's joining us life arrives from jordan's capital a mom. she's there because that is where the government and the palestinian authority have banned out as they are from propulsion from inside israel and occupied westbank come that those 6 is ready. men being released today,

the last 11 captives to be freed. during phase one of the deal, and that's right after a lot is behind the scenes negotiations with mediators. a lot of exceptions were made and understandings that came to the table after israel had demanded the release of 4 bodies of deceased captives earlier in the week, as well as the release of their remaining living captives all at once before the final week, which is next saturday, march, 1st, when phase one of this deal expires, it's important to note that 2 of the captives that are being released or individuals who have been held in gaza for 10 and 11 years respectively after being held there. they actually had infiltrated the gaza strip on their own accord, and we're being held there ever since. so intel, of even what's become known as hostage square the family members of captives are

watching the scenes unfold with the exception of what took place on thursday. they did not watch it out of respect for the family of those who are deceased before they could be identified. but each saturday we see these ceremonies being broadcasted on is really media, especially in hostage square where there are thousands of these really is looking for the captives who are being released, looking for that sign of life from them to family members will be waiting for them at the military base in southern israel before the 3rd, then air lifted to hospital in the central part of the country and home the we have confirmation of the last few hours, including from the b buzz family that the 2nd party handed of the by him off is that off? should he, the bus that was of course a lot riding on getting this right both and as roland garza, as well from us, said that they were investigating the situation at hand after israel says that the body that was returned to israel did not match as

a bus or any other captive that is currently being held in gaza. how much does that? it's possible her remains were mixed up with those of others who were killed in an as really air strike and were found underneath the rubble of that building. however, how mass last night at around midnight transferred a body to the international committee of the red cross. throughout the 30 minutes later, it was in the hands of these really military and was taken to the visa military forensic medical institute in a central part of the country where they did get a dna match for sherry, the bus, the military, the government, and her family all confirming that new saying that after 16 months of waiting, they finally have the answers they had hoped for, but it's still unclear what's next. when it comes to this deal. phase one is set to expire just a week from today. and there have been talks with mediators in egypt and capital about what's next, but there hasn't been any sort of consensus. there been reports within his really

media over the last couple of weeks that benjamin netanyahu wants to extend phase one rather than committing to phase 2, which would ultimately mean an enter the war. how must have said that they are willing to go to phase 2 and release all of the remaining is really captives after today, there will be around $59.00 of them with more than around half of them. course still alive, they're willing to release all of them at once in one big exchange, but in exchange for an end to the war. this is something that is not quite popular among these really government. they do want to defeat from us politically and militarily, which is something they clearly failed to do over the 15 months of fighting because you see him, us in the show for us every single week, while they're heading over these captives brandishing weapons. but they have some that they had even taken from is really soldiers during fighting in the field in gaza. so there are a lot of moving parts here, but it's still a little bit unclear as to where we go now with the remainder of the ceasefire deal . i'm to thank you for that for now. that's on the son who is joining us live from

a month. but i have to take you back to the alpha and southern gaza thought it was a is standing by for us and product. we have been looking at the pictures of the red cross vehicles arriving in an alpha where you are with 2 is made, the captives will be released, we believe. and they have been and gone as a full around a decade. yeah, that's completely right just to why the go full vehicles for the i c r c. have a right to run my city in the south of the strip. as you can see at the moment that the use of preparations have been made. we not uh, the ice your seat and the military ringal from us who are trying to find the lies. the latest arrangements released to is rarely captives from rough city. this city that had been widely devastated for more than 6 months of is ready military operations that turned the entire southern city and saw

a pile of rep who bought today. we see that the 1st tonnes over of newest cottage is taking place from rough offices. the 1st time that we see is rarely captive. i have been released a from would be released from this area now. the members of the i, c r c are trying to, uh, to pass a uh file you know, uh, commitments and instructions for the release of this ready to come to see we are talking about. i've wrong been guessed, so it'll show how i problem and gets to is one of these very captives who was a cap to it's before the somebody won't cause a back to a 12 to 2050. and once he entered the gaza strip. well touch will home was kept to the drawing october, the 7th attack on the east valley territories. now we are expecting the the cause that is great. this is very tough to move scenes of jew

place and we can to crowds of civilians are cheering and clapping for the palestinian factions for drawing to show different signs of friends. um, to show in this area that had been widely destroyed by this is very occupation forces the left corner of the screen. we can see the members of the i see, i see where the official documents waiting for the sign of the hands over of the captives. we need to remind a few was that with the release of the 6 top tips today, the 1st phase of the agreement will come to our members as negotiations for the 2nd one supposed to stop a just 2 weeks ago. but there has been a significant delay. 95 is by the sides for not being seriously engaged in the calculations for the 2nd phase. and it was absolutely clear that the tension that

completely emerged from the hand over of should we be best buddy has a, has 3 get to use concerns and fears among palestinians. that durability of this to explore is the same as it will be tested during the next 24 hours. and everybody was surprised that thomas has handed over the body of chevy best that's per day. and i buried a secret to midges that took place on the ground on the unknown circumstances without the widely disclosed to a media outlets for coverage, as we can see at the moment. and it is by the side confirmed that it is the body of sherry bus and we have had some mouses tech lead just that there was a mistake regarding that happened over the body. and now we believe that with such hands over the uh, the ceasefire. my witness, some sort of sustainable so yeah, this is completely well depends on the efforts made by regional mediators. we're

trying to contain all sorts of tensions that unpredictably emerged from the or from any sorts of logistical challenges or mistakes made by the factions here. but apparently, the uh, the hands over today has been widely marked by the high level of preparations that are made by the military wing of how mazda has been less. can you have to explain an intense nature of the release of the captives in comparison with the previous hands of is that some of them had been widely lashed out by is ready. q of course shows. and we are expecting the arrival of the call that will bring the is ready to come to this side. absolutely. this hands all, but we're facilitate the release of at least $400.00 foot to palestinian destiny is hawaii completely. the chains of 12 so,

but this subject in areas that is very many trill peroration has taken place in regarding rough by here, the 5768. the city has been the last area that these very few function forces operate a type in this class by these very key officials that is one on this thing. just a strong hole. that's how much and it's minutes where you went in the south of this trip regarding it's a strategic, a position close to the egyptian borders. and uh, the very remarkable strengths of the military rings in this area. they have been a subject to 2 different sorts of attacks, but we can see the scale of disruption as far as i can see, and catch in a rough box. but despite this, uh, the choice of this location and the preparations that were made today could signal that, how much is it still in some so in such area, the spot is whether it's claims that the managed to militarily dismantle infrastructure of the organization. in

a rough last 60 now everybody who's anticipating the arrival of the captives very soon. it's absolutely important to note out to the movements of these by the captives from their detention facility. they usually takes place on a very strict security protocol. it's usually organized in, within the frame of the i'm the structure of the military range of how much they usually updates. regional miss yates is with the exact timing for the hands overall is very cooperative. and we know that different communication channels with needs know just only between regional magenta's, but also with the i c r c members who are right now trying to facilitate a very smooth and over and transfer to the is very comfortable to the is ready side later they will undergo initial medical check by there's really medical teams with us that you should come up with southern crescent. we are expecting that this

vehicle will take the closest true to come up with sell them, which is only 10 minutes of driving away from our location at the moment. i'm the lead to of, to, for a full sitting and undergoing the musical examination. they would be re united with the family member support says the beloved ones who are waiting them on the other side. it is situates wisely and comprehensively, seeing that this level of the preparation reflects that of the instructions as to trying to show this by the side that relates to negotiations through his cognitive will be released. and this is one of the key messages that we have seen for the banners. the preparations that have taken place in this geographical location. over the course of the past 24 hours, we can see that um flights has been deployed. the gym for mason departments of the military wing of how much is documenting the entire process in order to ensure how

it's like least tables the current situation on the ground. despite older rainy weather, we can see that people have come today to the side. all right, and that was standing on the roof tops of the buildings that had been significantly destroyed due to the it's very many truth ration in this area it's, it's quite remarkable that the area has subject to to very intense area and runs the apartment. we can see that buildings have been widely's called. we've pulled that holes with different craters, resulted from very expensive destruction and military attacks on this area. that is a home for at least more than $300000.00 palestinians. many civilians have shed their onto the patients that this hand over well goes mostly due to the very strict level of the nation that has been made that we in the military from us on

the i. c r. c. members. we have been told by the i see i see members that they will certainly receive the receive public opinion debts and these are from the east rarely detention centers. and that you will guarantee a very small and transparent turns over to the palestinian site to you as the names of who spectrum has has been shirts by this by this side, which can give us signs. that is what made delay their release. today's, i'm a direct captives are about to be handed over to the members of i, c r c who are waiting patiently to receive them product. thank you so much for that for now. that is thought it was zoom. joining us live from it all 5 we we are expecting the release of to is ready, the captives that have been held in gaza for around 10 years. thought it will come back to you when that happens. but let's move on to now and bringing along pen costs. he's a former ambassador and consul general of as well and new york. he's joining us live from television, good to see you and on. and so as thought of just mentioned,

we've heard from him awesome us spokesman has a cast them saying that as well as intended, over the list of palestinian prisoners shed you to be released today. and that just once again highlights how extremely fragile this whole process is as intent we sold that yesterday with the wrong body of the is why the captive being sent to as well . and a lot of warnings from prominence and method. yahoo! and now we finally have the correct body of should he be boss that has been identified? good morning, elizabeth. you're right, it's been fragile. but that said it also works for the last 35 years. today's the 35th day of the ceasefire. the ceasefire. hilde's c, fire till fields, and aside from 2 or 3 unpleasant glitches the hostages

versus palestinian. i'll present our exchange work pretty much smoothly. and so the focus right now, i mean today 6 is really hostages will be released on thursday. the bodies are for remaining is really hostages will be transferred to israel and that in effect concludes phase one. and so the attention of the focus will now move to a very questionable and very tenuous face to given the given you know what we're talking about, that so many of the challenges to the sci fi, none of them have led to its collapse. do think that that bodes well for the more challenging 2nd phase. and um, not necessarily, and the reason is that mr. natania was not interested in face to face to, as you know, include in his early 1st, 4th reduction on day 42. that's a week from now that's next saturday and then i'm the 50 on march 9. it includes in

his early, not just for the reduction, but withdrawal and the see fire um turns from a cessation of hostilities as it, as it is design injury. permanency is fire, which effectively means the ends of the war. this is something that this trying to try me out does not want him. he cannot afford neither the withdrawal nor the official and of the war politically that he cannot afford. and so i don't necessarily see a face to happening according to the agreement. elizabeth is in the absence of phase 2, or phase 2 is not concluded and implemented. then phase one automatically continues, but only the cease fire aspect, not the hostage release and not the uh, force reduction. and eventual force withdrawal from mounts to garza, which, which all boats very bad for the duration of the, the, the,

the durability. rather also you have the ceasefire, you say that the prime minister netanyahu isn't interested in phase 2 and ending the will. but we've heard from the us special envoy for the middle east, steve woodcock, just days ago saying that phase 2 will absolutely happen. do things that the us administration, are they pushing any pressure on the is why the government to continue and the continued to actually progress to the next phase? so yeah, you're, you're absolutely right. the moment that would cost, as the presidential envoy steve would call, says that he's absolutely certain and optimistic that phase 2 will happen. that in and of itself, constitutes pressure. and that's the kind of pressure that's one of the kinds of pressure that an attorney always finds himself locked in. the other is domestics political pressure. so he's going to resort to what he does best. and that is uh, stall, procrastinate, and the legs and the goal. she,
