of the latest hostages. or levy, 3a, and eli sharabi, aged 52, looked thin, weak and pale. they were forced to give statements surrounded by masked gunmen. and after cheers went up from those watching the live feed in kibbutz beeri, where two of the three men there was shock as friends took in their changed appearance and tears from his family waiting for their reunion. adding to their pain, it's still not clear if he knows his british born wife, leanne, and two daughters were killed 16 months ago. wrists were skinny. but what really hit

home was his face. he was gaunt. the light that is always there with eli. in hostages square, the main family support group, talks on a sensitive second stage for the gaza ceasefire are soon due to start in earnest, and many israelis and palestinians worry a full end to the war and the return i'm afraid. we will not go through with it. and i'm hopeful, iam. the consequences of losing a loved one in the hands of terrorists. and i wish this end to no one. no one.

part, the reciprocal part of tentative ceasefire are being in prisoners are being released in exchange for israeli hostages. i spoke to my joe i spoke to my aolleagdejoe about this latest phase ”this???” " h ' {hie sag; mthisstageofr " ' mthissta’gieof the ' ' ' this stage? of the ceasefire. these did not look like men who were in i think it was notable, the contrast with previous releases. it had been commented on here in israel before that. they could walk out, they looked in reasonable these three men did not look very well and i think that has been commented on. that they have been left there so long, the hostage the fact they're only out now when we've been hearing quite

a lot of frustration, understandably. but when it comes to the 183 palestinian prisoners that as a fragile peace process. just talk us through where we are with that particular stage of this part of the ceasefire deal. i think it is worth pointing out as well that a number the palestinian prisoners association say, because their condition was also very, very poor. in terms of the talks, we are in stage one at the moment. the hope is that we can move to stage two, which would be of the living hostages. negotiations for that, it's understood, have not begun yet, but it's thought that negotiators from hamas

point in the coming days. it's being reported that they're going to be talking about extending phase one. that would be extending the temporary truce rather than the negotiations about stage two. but as ever, these things take place with some secrecy, with some discretion. so we don't get running updates. certainly, is that the calls from president trump for gaza to be turned into a riviera of the middle east have added a great deal of uncertainty about this procedure, this whole process. yes, indeed, a lot of criticism as to those comments from the president. stage of the ceasefire deal, that stage when inevitably that is when israeli military personnel have to completely withdraw from gaza? within israel's government

do not want to see. well, that should take place. in a few weeks' time. but as i said, it really is uncertain whether that will happen. happen with these negotiations, because at the moment, those one of those is qatar and one of the others is egypt, along with the united states. as i was mentioning before, that the statements from donald trump have added from so much today. we've seen the emotional scenes involving — they are very, they are as much as we have opposition from the right

the continuation of the peace, whatever the consequences, because they want to get the remaining living hostages home. and there are still a large number of people who we will speak to somebody campaigning for his brother—in—law injust a moment. i want to bring you a when it comes to the line when it comes to the images we seeing earlier images we were seeing earlier of the hostages being released and the palestinian prisoners released as well. the red being released as well. the red cross critical �*the centre of cross critical of the centre of hostages released. we hostages being released. we seek their cars as they bring seek. their 555; aa taeg'ari-aa 7 ~ hostages to eeeh their eere ee taeg'ari-aa 7 ~ hostages to them, and then the hostages to them, and then take them back to israel. the red cross has just take them back to israel. the red cross hasjust the take them back to israel. the red cross has just the last red cross has just in the last few moments called for next few moments called for the next hostage prisoner swap to be held in so the red held in private, so the red cross is calling for these : tobe . i to be held; i to be hegldfto not be images to be held, to not be displayed like this. they want to be in

these hostages to be held in private. and arguably, �*on, we were when it came to seeing, when it came to releases, a very turbulent moment chaos, people moment with chaos, people taking photos of the hostages, images of them, and also this happening earlier, these hostages looking gaunt, their condition a real concern. but hamas using it a arguably, hamas using it as a possible propaganda position because it shows them in a 7 of power, of power, as very position of power, as very much within monitoring the within gaza, monitoring the situation and being in control the situation in gaza, of the situation in gaza, and argued that is what the israeli government don't want. they as part of the ceasefire want as part of the ceasefire is the removal of hamas, deal is the removal of hamas, but what we are seeing is hamas being in a position of 77 the red 7 the red cross
