aviation fuel, we could -- in one direction fill it up with sustainable aviation fuel while britain is catching up and, you know, making enough sustainable aviation fuel to fly both ways. so it's highly adaptable and easy to use and so, you know, i'm even thinking, you know, we should really in order to speed up the process maybe set up a fuel company ourselves. >> i like it when the wheels are turning right in front of us. >> in realtime. that is very fascinating. >> the demand for this is go to be millions and millions and millions of gallons and the great thing is the government on both sides of the atlantic they were all with us last night congratulating us and also saying they want to work with us. you know, the world in most areas as far as getting to clean energy, there's an exponential growth in a whole lot of

different areas. >> right. >> this was the one area that people thought was going to be impossible and now it looks like aviation can also be fixed. >> a major moment, one of many you have had in your career. sir richard branson, congratulations, thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> we're watching closely this morning as the final hours of the truce between israel and hamas are ticking away. negotiators in the white house racing to extend it. thanks for being with us today. we will follow all of that. "cnn news central" starts right now. ♪ it is 9:00 in the morning in new york, 4:00 p.m. in israel and gaza and it's a race against the clock on what could be the sixth and potentially final day of the extended truce between israel and hamas. more hostages are set to be released today by hamas with dozens of hostages still being held captive in gaza. negotiators in qatar are pushing to extend the pause in fighting so more people can be freed and

more aid can get into gaza. sources are confirming to cnn negotiators believe there are enough women and children still in hamas captivity to extend the truce for at least two more days. ten more israeli hostages were released from hamas captivity just last night along with two thai nationals. you can see their faces. they are now free. still not among that group was two american women who were kidnapped in the october 7th terror attack as well. the white house, though, now says that they are hopeful that these women may be on the list of hostages to be released today. according to the israeli prime minister's office there are 161 hostages still being held by hamas in gaza. 126 of them are male, 35 of them are female. and of those who are still kidnapped ten of them are 75 years old or older, four more

are between the ages of 18 and 19 and another four are just children under the age of 18 years old. this morning there is new optimism and an important note from the qatari foreign ministry which has been key to broken all of these agreements, even saying that they could be announcing another truce extension in a couple of hours. let's go to our cnn's kaitlan collins, she has more on this from tel aviv. kaitlan, you spoke with the qatari foreign ministry spokesperson a few minutes ago and he offered and important update on this. >> yeah, these are the officials who have really been giving us the confirmations that we have seen over the last several days of the outlines of this deal, when it's in place, where it's going and so this is a crucial update that we heard from the qataris earlier today because this comes amid conversations about what could happen next here. we know we are on day six of this agreement right now but everyone wants to know what happens on day seven because this temporary truce and it's

48-hour extension is set to expire tonight. we know all parts have been talking about what that could look like going forward. we just asked the qatari spokesperson what he expects to happen. this is what he told me. >> we are hopeful that within a couple of hours we will have the release of the final batch, but also we will be able to announce an extension. we are working on an extension that would be guaranteed by the same provision that guaranteed the previous two days, which is that every day would have to include at least ten hostages coming out and 30 hostages -- 30 prisoners from the israeli prisons, and we are very -- we are very optimistic that we will have good news to share today. >> okay. so you do expect that an extension with the same parameters that are in place right now will be announced once this sixth group of hostages has been released, is that right? >> we are optimistic that we

will be able to make that announcement during the day. >> he says they are optimistic. we will wait to see of course. we still have a few more hours as we're waiting to see the actual release of the sixth group of hostages. he did say there same parameters, women and children. i have heard from israeli officials, they believe that could actually go on for several more days because of how many women and children hamas is still holding at this point. then the question that he also referenced there is what happens after that? he did say there are discussions going on about expanding this group to include men, potentially even idf soldiers. that is no easy feat to actually get an agreement there so we will wait to see what the like we're also learning more about what we could see today, on day six. we have just heard from the bibas family, the family where the father, mother and two children who have become, you know, kind of just iconic images of the children who have been kidnapped by hamas, kifir bibas,

ten months old and his mother ariel who are four months old, both kidnapped by hamas alongside their parents. we have heard from their family. they are not on the list today. that is heartbreaking news for them who have so desperately wanted them to come home. it's still a question of where they are in gaza right now because the idf says hamas claims to them that they are not in control of them any longer, meaning they are with another terrorist group in gaza potentially. a lot of questions and obviously not the news they wanted to get as we are waiting to see who did make the list today, who is going to be released. oren lieberman is tracking all of this in tel aviv. we know who is not going to be on the list when it comes to these two children, two the youngest hostages who have not been released. what are we expecting as to how many people are going to be released today? >> reporter: so under the terms of the agreement so far we expect ten more women and children to be released and at least according to the last few days we expect that to start playing out over the course of

the next few hours. it has in the past been delayed, sometimes even delayed by several hours into the middle of the night, but we do expect at this point to continue. we haven't seen anything like yesterday's exchange of fire that risked to derail the agreement. so even if this doesn't go forward in the next few moments here, it is expected to continue. ten israeli women and children released in exchange for 30 palestinian women and children released from israeli prisons. one of the key questions, will there be any americans on this list? we saw 4-year-old abigail edan released a couple days ago. now the question are the other two dual national israeli-american women set to be released? that is a key question for the biden administration. then as you pointed out one of the other major issues is how much longer can this continue? according to the israeli prime minister's office there are 161 hostages who remain in gaza, that number has gone up and down as certain hostages have come out. the israeli government has adjusted that exact number, but of those according to the israeli prime minister's office,

35 are women. crucial to note some of those might be foreign nationals, but there is a limit on how long the current truce can be extended. and that's something to keep an eye on. because the current truce is only for women and children. essentially a ratio of one israeli woman or child released for three palestinian women and children in israeli prisons to be released. to go to the next stage of that, elderly men or soldiers, that could require a whole another set of negotiations, an entirely separate framework. keep in mind it took weeks to work out the beginning of this and even if there's a basis you can build upon, these are two sides israel and hamas that completely distrust each other even with all of the international pressure getting to the next stage of an agreement might remain incredibly difficult even if the qataris are optimistic about the next 24 hours. >> yeah. i also think there is a question of how does hamas differentiate these young men who have been kidnapped from current idf soldiers to reservists? i mean, a lot of challenges

potentially lie ahead here, oren lieberman, thank you for the update. also on the ground in brussels this morning for the nato foreign minister's meeting secretary of state antony blinken he did confirm he will be back here in israel in the coming days. he's made multiple trips since october 7th, this time focusing on extending the pause and fighting that the white house would like to see extended for several more days at least. cnn's arlette saenz is tracking this from the white house this morning. what's the white house saying about whether or not they're hopeful that an extension could actually happen here? >> reporter: kaitlan, a key focus for biden administration officials in the coming day is trying to determine whether that extension in a truce which is now in its sixth day could be possible. you heard secretary of state antony blinken today saying that this will be a focus of his as he heads to israel a bit later today and tomorrow. you also have the special envoy for hostage affairs who will be in israel to work with blinken

as well as meet with the families of american hostages and israeli hostages. and then there is cia director bill burns who yesterday was in doha meeting with qataris, egyptian and israeli officials to talk about a way forward towards a possible truce. now, earlier today secretary of state antony blinken said that the goal of any extension of a truce is to further get hostages out and get more aid in. take a listen to what he had to say. >> we'd like to see the pause extended because what it has enabled, first and foremost, is hostages being released. it's also enabled us to surge humanitarian assistance into the people of gaza who so desperately need it. >> reporter: so there's some hope that there will be work towards extending that truce. officials believe that there are enough women and children who still need to be released from captivity and that that could allow for a possible two-day truce, but that's something that they will be working towards today. and it comes at the same time as

officials are also looking to what happens when the truce ends, when fighting resumes. senior administration officials have said that they are urging the israelis to be more precise, more surgical as they are going after hamas to try to avoid civilian casualties. they have pushed to be careful with operations in the southern part of gaza where many civilians have been fleeing. and it comes as the president back here at home has also faced political pressure including within his own democratic party to call for a further ceasefire in the fighting. so these are all things that the white house will be watching in the coming days and of course today they are keeping their eyes on whether either of those two american women being held hostage will be released by hamas. >> arlette, what is their sense on that, if those americans are expected to be on this list today? have they said? >> reporter: they have not said so far if they expect the americans to be on the list. yesterday they said that they were hopeful that they would be released, said that that is

something that they continue to work towards. one thing that officials have said is that they don't believe that hamas has been holding back from releasing these american women as any type of leverage against the united states or in their negotiations. the white house remains hopeful that this could happen. they've also noted that they don't necessarily know where exactly all of these hostages are being held and that could be a contributing factor to some of this, but they ultimately are hopeful that those two american women will get out and the president has said he will not stop until all the americans are released from captivity. >> yeah, we should know shortly as we continue to wait for these hostages to be released. arlette saenz, thank you. sara, obviously that's a major question for the white house, they are definitely hopeful that they are on t it remains to be seen what that looks like. >> kaitlan, great job out there. thank you. joel humanen is joining us to discuss the ongoing truce negotiations and how u.s. diplomacy may impact him. joel was the assistant secretary

of state in the obama administration and is also running for congress. thank you for being here. we just heard from doha officials basically saying, look, we believe we are going to be able to extend this. it has not been official, it has not been sanctioned just yet, but after these next hostages come out they're hoping for the next couple of days, though the idf has said very clearly with the backing of netanyahu that it's getting ready to resume it's military campaign against hamas when the truce ends. what are the chances, do you think, of this being extended for more than just a day or two? >> well, sara, i believe that you're right, we're going to get a couple more days of extension but everybody is on a hair trigger right now so the pressure is increasing for there to be a further extension but it depends upon hamas's good will and that's a difficult place to be because hamas does not engage in good will. hamas is engaging in a very strats jik maneuver right now to release individuals, release

kidnapped israelis in order to get a pause in military action that has been waged against it by israel. so for hamas the calculation is do they need more time and i think that's why we're seeing day by day agreements, rather than the larger sort of chunk that we had at the beginning of four full days. that uncertainty will continue and i think hamas likes it that way, but then of course they also have their internal difficulties with identifying where people may be because we know that they are spread about potentially with criminal gangs and other terrorist organizations inside gaza. so this is just a very tenuous situation, i can't emphasize that enough, depending upon hamas's decision-making to determine how much longer we're going to have this truce for. >> it is so delicate, it is to tenuous and it gives anyone listening to this anxiety just wondering when the next group may or may not be let out. i do want to talk to you about the difficulties going forward

because it is believed there are enough women and children that hamas has a hold of to extend the truce just by a couple of days so that they can be released, but then the discussion is going to turn to men and those who are current idf soldiers, some of the men are former soldiers because so many people in israel have to go into the military. so how difficult will this be? do you see there being a possibility of men, israelis, being set free? >> sara, this is the question that's given everyone fear. this trade potentially of israeli soldiers, in the past we saw a soldier release over a go traded for 1,027 hamas fighters. so the price is probably going to go up. that's my fear. we've seen this three to one ratio of palestinians who are in

israeli prisons being released for one kidnapped hostage. over women and children. that ratio is likely going to change significantly and and i think that's where we will hit the road blocks and see the israeli military pressure exert itself. think about t babies are still kidnapped and in captivity. what's the purpose of this? it's only about keeping hamas in a safe space and away from israeli fire, but i think it's going to be very difficult to envision a three to one ratio exchange for those men. >> you make a really good point because in the case of the idf soldier he was in for five and a half years before that agreement was made and the exchange was more than 1,000 palestinian prisoners. i do want to lastly ask you just about this complication. we had heard from hamas that the bibas family, a 10 month old and

4-year-old who are being held with their parents still and hamas is saying that they don't have control of them anymore. what is that going to mean for negotiations to try to get this family and these two babies out of gaza? >> the idea that hamas has stolen babies is one that should shock the senses of anybody who has been watching this, as i know how closely you have been and we all have been. the fact that they don't know where this baby is just points to the reality that they took human beings as war booty to trade and give out and now they've lost that individual. i fear they don't know how to find that baby. i fear that that's going to create just an ongoing level of uncertainty and they are trading in human beings at the expense of all of our humanity.

so this has been an ongoing discussion, a concern that they have given these people out and the fact that they can't get them back means they have really lost control of the situation and i fear we're going to have a hard time getting good news on this front. >> joel rubin, thank you for joining us today and talking us through this. coming up for us, the explosive new book from former congresswoman liz cheney. cnn has an early look at t she is naming names, calling people out, not holding back and warning all americans now about the, quote, the most dangerous man ever to inhabit the oval office. and george santos has made it clear that he will not resign under any circumstances, so why the latest move on capitol hill has one republican saying that santos is toast? and a massive search is under way right now after a u.s. military aircraft crashed off the coast of japan. the new details coming in as the search and rescue operation continues. we will be right back.

a scathing portrait of the republican party. former representative liz cheney's new book "oath and honor" drops december 5th and cnn got the book exclusively ahead of time. cheney calls out her now former colleagues as hypocrites, saying they were, quote, suddenly willing to violate their oath to the constitution out of loyalty to donald trump. but the former president's spokesman said simply the book belongs in the fiction section of the bookstore. joining us now is cnn's jamie gangel. jamie, you got ahold of this, you always get this, you always get the tea, jamie. cheney was not in this book at all afraid to name names and tell the tales. what can you tell us about what sort of stuck out to you?

>> so, sara, the book is a devastating takedown of the republican party. it takes readers behind the scenes. she condemns her former colleagues, party leaders, for what she calls, quote, cowardice for their loyalty to donald trump. she also calls them, quote, enablers and collaborators who were willing to help trump overturn the 2020 election results. for the record not only does she name names, shara, she has the receipts. the book draws from text messages, emails, calls, meetings as well as personal conversations all of which we're learning about for the first time. >> she's clearly putting out this isn't fiction and she has the receipts. you have kevin mccarthy, cheney writes that mccarthy told her spoke to donald trump just a few days after the election and that trump acknowledged to him that he lost the 2020 election,

correct? >> correct. this is correct. and you have to also put this in the perspective of this may be something that special counsel jack smith is interested in the case because it goes to what did trump really know? what was his intent? so cheney writes that just two days after the election mccarthy told her he had spoken to trump and that mccarthy said to her, quote, he knows it's over. he needs to go through all the stages of grief. there's also just the stunning explanation in the book about that now infamous photograph of kevin mccarthy and trump at mar-a-lago where they're grinning. first of all, cheney said when she saw the photo she thought it was a fake. this is just three weeks after january 6th. so she confronts mccarthy about the trip to mar-a-lago and this is what he tells her in his defense.

cheney says, mar-a-lago? what the hell, kevin? kevin mccarthy says, they're really worried. trump is not eating. so they asked me to come see him. cheney, what? you went to mar-a-lago because trump is not eating? mccarthy, yeah, he's really depressed. i don't know, sara, it's just -- i've heard a lot of things, it reminds me a little bit about when she children had chocolate icing all over their mouth and they told me they hadn't eaten any cake. it's just -- it's not credible. >> that was a really good analogy, jamie. i'm sure your kids will appreciate you for that. >> sorry, guys. >> there are a lot of other revelations in the book we're learning for the first time including -- and this i found fascinating -- some behind the scenes looks at what was happening on january 6th before the attack began. what can you tell us? >> so i think this goes to

frankly the hypocrisy. we have heard all along that republicans say one thing privately, another thing publicly, and there is an extraordinary scene in the book, this is in the gop cloak room, where members were being encouraged to sign their names the morning of january 6 on electoral vote objection sheets. cheney spots congressman mark green of tennessee who has been a trump supporter publicly and she writes, quote, as he moves down the line signing his name to the pieces of paper, green said sheepishly to no one in particular, quote, the things we do for the orange jesus. sara, i just want to say the book concludes with a stark warning of just how dangerous cheney believes trump would be if he were to win reelection in 2024. she writes she believes the checks and balances, those guardrails we talk about of

democracy just will not hold if trump returns to the white house. >> what are the words to use here? i mean, incredible detail and receipts. jamie gangel, thank you for bringing that to us, we appreciate all of your reporting on this. >> thank you. and, again, that book is coming out december 5th and we will be interviewing liz cheney here on cnn. kate? coming up for us, doctors without borders say that some staff that were trapped in a hospital after an israeli military raid in the west bank, the latest on these clashes now as the idf says it was conducting counterterrorism activities. we will take you there. and he's toast, that's one republican congressman's prediction for what the future holds for fellow republican congressman george santos this week. the new push now to get santos out from the house. we will be back.

first time i connected with kim, she told me that her husband had passed. and that he took care of all of the internet connected devices in the home. i told her, “i'm here to take care of you.” connecting with kim... made me reconnect with my mom. it's very important to keep loved ones close. we know that creating memories with loved ones brings so much joy to your life. a family trip to the team usa training facility.

i don't know how to thank you. i'm here to thank you. we have new reports this morning of an israeli military raid in the occupied west bank on tuesday. video that was obtained by cnn shows military tanks rolling near the jenin refugee camp. the idf says that they were conducting counterterrorism activities in the area, that these operations are expected to continue, but said they would not provide any more details until those operations were finished. cnn's ben wedeman is tracking this from jerusalem. ben, what more do we know about what happened here? >> reporter: i'm sorry, i'm not

hearing kaitlan. >> all right. ben wedeman, we're struggling to get his connection. it's a little bit of a technical -- go ahead, ben. >> reporter: the biggest one was in the northern west bank city of jenin where at about 9:00 p.m. local time dozens of israeli military vehicles backed up by bulldozers and drones overhead entered the city of jenin. they declared it a closed military area, said that they were conducting counterterrorism activities, but in the process we understand from the group doctors without borders that the israelis blocked access to local hospitals and as a result two people were killed and

furthermore -- two boys, one age 14, another age 9, were shot dead by israeli forces that were operating in the camp. the raid ended at 3:00 in the afternoon local time, but we were actually in the jenin refugee camp for much of yesterday before that raid took place and they were telling us the residents there that this sort of raid has become an almost weekly -- it's weekly event, if not more. they said that since august there have been more than 30 israeli raids into jenin and, of course, they are expecting more after this one. kaitlan? >> two young boys shot. obviously a lot of questions for the idf on that. ben wedeman in jerusalem, thank

you for that. this is is something we've been watching closely what is happening in the west bank. things appeared to calm down in other areas, other borders when it comes to hezbollah and what we've been tracking, but the west bank has remained a point where we've seen a lot of action happening, something we are watching obviously incredibly closely. >> absolutely. kaitlan, we will get back to you shortly. as we've been discussing, this is the sixth and potentially final day of the six-day truce agreement to get hostages freed from hamas as they're being held in gaza. just this morning the qataris telling cnn's kaitlan collins that they are optimistic, hopeful that they can soon announce this truce will be extended further. now, that is huge news for the families of the 161 israeli hostages still being held captive in gaza. even before then we are standing by right now for the release of ten more hostages today. joining me now is the founder of the hostages and missing families forum.

his cousin and three of her children were held hostage by hamas for more than 50 days, just released on sunday, though her husband and her eldest daughter were murdered by hamas terrorists in the october 7th attack. thank you for coming back on. i told you in the break it's so wonderful since the last time we spoke to hear the news that your cousin and her children have been released. how are they doing since they were released sunday? >> so, yes, thank you for having me again. i think that we are very fortunate. i think they are making progress and from what we understand they were held in poor conditions, but they were together and she showed a lot of resilience, was very strong for the children and all the kids, for each other, and we are really glad to have them back home. >> what does the progress look

like? what is the road ahead and the process like now, do you think, or are you learning from all of the people who are helping for them, considering her husband, her eldest daughter were murdered, they've lost their home. i mean, they've lost almost everything. >> yeah, i think that we are starting to piece together what they've been through and we need to understand, like you said, on this horrible day, october 7th, han knew before that her husband was shot, she was hoping for a miracle, that he is still alive but understands chances are low. she saw the body of her eldest daughter and she had been through this hell of 50 long days and now she's coming back and she doesn't have a home to return to. their parents, hans' parents are from the same kibbutz, they are displaced for almost two months.

so rebuilding would be very, very hard and they don't even know where will it be? how will it be? you know, how will they do it? those people returning from captivity don't have homes to return to. it's a huge tragedy that it's only starting and there are wounds that will never heal and there is stuff that will take years to rebuild. so we give them time, they get the professional support they need, they have a very supportive family in israel. i sit here in new york, but we send the help and the support that we can from here. i think that they need time and space and do it step by step. >> and, omer, much of the information about what the freed hostages are saying about their time in captivity, much of what we're learning has been coming through the coordination that your forum has been able to

offer for all of the families and some of what we're hearing come out, i mean, we just learned since yesterday that the aunt of a 12-year-old hostage had said -- who was released -- said that he was forced at gunpoint to watch graphic films of the hamas attack. what else are you hearing from those who have been able -- those who have been released, as, you know, we've seen hamas trying to paint a picture that they have all been treated so well? >> i think hamas -- this is part of the psychological and propaganda war that hamas is trying to do to reach the international media, to reach the people in israel, but what we hear from the stories and from children, that the captivity harsh reality is it's unbelievable. there was a story by emily, only 9 years old, she was so scared, she only whispers still to today and she saw that she was in

jail. the child that you mentioned had to watch horrific videos and was threatened if he would cry. with a gun, you know, to his head. sisters of other children told them that hamas have told the children that their whole family has died, that nobody wanted them back, that they don't have a home to go to. they tried to scare the children. they suffered from malnutrition. they lost weight. sunlight was -- they didn't have sunlight or hope, but we do know that some of them are exposed to the media and sometimes can hear radio and we do know that some of them sent messages -- messages to the other family through the one who was released and we get signs of life, which is -- give us some hope. if they hear us i think our

mission is to tell them that we are fighting very, very, very hard to bring them home because i don't think we as a forum and israel as a whole and the whole of the jewish community all over the world, and we do hope the international community and the u.s. will keep and help us because we won't stop until we will see all of them coming home because there are still more than 160 people in there. it is the biggest hostages crisis ever. it's unbelievable. and we need the support of everyone who can, of every stakeholder in the area. >> absolutely. 161 hostages still in gaza. that's according to the israeli prime minister's office just today. omer, thank you for coming on. >> thank you for having me. >> sara? coming up, one issue that's uniting some lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, george santos. a vote to expel him is expected tomorrow, the question is will

it succeed? we will have that coming up.

new this morning, a house vote to expel embattled congressman george santos is now expected to happen tomorrow. lawmakers from both sides of the aisle brought forward resolutions this week to expel the new york republican after very troubling findings from a hugely damning house ethics committee report. santos says, though, he's not going to seek reelection and, though, slammed the report calling it biased. cnn congressional correspondent lauren fox is live on capitol hill for us. what is santos saying about

tomorrow's vote after this really damning, very long report that came out from the ethics committee? >> reporter: yeah, george santos has continued to say he does not plan to resign or step aside, even though there is growing momentum to expel him from congress from his own colleagues in the republican party. george santos is expected to hold a press conference tomorrow morning ahead of this potential vote to expel him and there's still a question whether or not there will be enough republican support to eject him from congress, but obviously this is a huge moment for the republican party, a huge moment for the new speaker mike johnson who has yet to say publicly whether he personally supports trying to expel george santos, but there were resolutions that were introduced yesterday, one from democrats, one from republicans, both of them now privileged, which essentially sets the clock for when congress has to vote on

them. so that is why we believe this could come up tomorrow. it's going to be a huge moment for republicans. so far leadership has made clear that they want members to vote their conscience. they are not planning on whipping this vote against george santos or for george santos. they want members to make their minds up individually. but obviously, share, ra, a huge moment and this isn't the first time that they have tried to expel george santos from congress. there have been past efforts. what makes this one so different is the fact you now have that ethics report that so many republicans say was so troubling and really helped them change their minds about now wanting to try to expel george santos after maybe in the past voting against that resolution. >> yeah, you did have people saying they were going to wait until the report came out, then it came out and it was so damaging that they are probably going to change, although we don't know, their vote. we will see what happens tomorrow when it comes to weather george santos will be exp expelled. thank you so much, lauren fox there for us on capitol hill. kate? coming up for us, an urgent

search off the coast of japan right now after a u.s. military aircraft crashed. the u.s. military called it an emergency water landing. what more we are learning about what happened. we will be right back.

developing right now at least one person has died after a u.s. air force osprey aircraft crashed off the coast of japan. this is according to a spokesperson from the japan coast guard. six people total were onboard that aircraft, but we don't know yet about the fate of the other five. cnn's paula hancock is joining us now. we are looking at what the osprey looks like and how it operates. can you give us anything more of what the status might be of the other five members that might be on that aircraft? >> so the u.s. military, sara, has commented saying that at this point the status of the crew is unknown. they say that the search and rescue mission is ongoing at this point. it was just before 3:00 in the

afternoon local time that japan's coast guard was alerted to this crash. it's now close to midnight, but the search and rescue is ongoing still. we heard from japan's coast guard that they have three aircraft, six ships at one point trying to find the five remaining crew. the u.s. military says that they have notified the families of the incidents, but at this point the cause of the crash is unknown, as well. we do know that there is a debris field that the japan coast guard has found and filmed and they believe that is where the u.s. aircraft went down. we also heard from japan's vice defense chief saying the u.s. military told them that they believe it was an emergency water landing, that the pilot had tried their best until the end and had control of the aircraft until it hit the water. vengs, there have been concerns about the osprey.

there have been incidents quite recently just three month ago in australia. there were three u.s. marines killed and several others seriously injured when there was a crash during training exercises there. last year, as well, there were also training incidents, deadly training incidents in california and also in norway. we've heard from okinawa asking for these ospreys to be grounded until the investigation is completed, sara? >> thank you so much, paula hancocks there from seoul, south korea. kate? >> coming up for us, talks are under way and qatari officials are hopeful that the fragile truce between israel and hamas will be extended. we are also waiting for more hostages to be released today. we have much more on this ahead.
