>> the lead with jake tapper, weekdays at four on cnn this is cnn breaking news. >> we are following two major breaking news stories this morning. good morning. i'm victor blackwell and i'm amara walker. >> tiktok is now dark for 170 million users in the u.s., and the israel-hamas ceasefire is now in effect after a three hour delay. cnn anchor and chief national security analyst jim sciutto has been following this story for us from tel aviv. jim. >> that's right. and we were just under two hours. now from a key point in this agreement. that is when the first israeli hostages, or at least the earliest, the first israeli hostages, will be released, three of them. and we're also going to see in the same period of time, dozens of palestinian prisoners released from israeli prisons in the west bank. it's a tense moment here, but a moment of some hope after so much suffering.

>> all right, jim, we'll see you in a bit. tiktok also has officially gone dark. that app and others owned by bytedance went offline late saturday night, just two hours before the ban was slated to take effect. >> so if you try to open tiktok this morning, you'll see this message sorry. tiktok isn't avai a law banning tiktok has been enacted in the u.s. unfortunately, that means you can't use tiktok for now. we're covering the latest on this with cnn's clare duffy and former national security intelligence official timothy edgar. clare, we're going to start with you. tiktok also seems to suggest in this message that they are waiting for president trump's inauguration, and there could be some way to to be back online. what do you know? >> that's right. victor. look, there are going to be lots of unhappy tiktok users who are waking up this morning, and many users are also disappointed because they thought they had until midnight last night to continue their scrolling. but the app shut down two hours earlier than expected. as you said.

bytedance owns lemon8, and capcut also have gone offline, and all of the apps are no longer available on the app store. and just to back up for one minute, i mean, this is a huge deal. tiktok has 170 million american users. and if we look back, the app really became popular during the covid 19 pandemic when people were stuck at home. it was a place to find community, connect to creativity. of course, many people built businesses there, so users are really sad about this loss. this video was posted just before the ban went into effect last night. >> sad about tiktok leaving? i'm going to miss being your tiktok grandma. i had so much fun here and i love you all. follow me on instagram. >> but as you said, their tiktok may not be gone for long. the company is hoping to receive an assist from incoming president donald trump. trump is said to be weighing a 90 day delay of the ban. yesterday, he told nbc the 90 day extension is something that will most

likely be done because it's appropriate, you know it's appropriate. we have to look at it very carefully. it's a big situation. if i decide to do that, i'll probably announce it on monday. but here's the big question. the president has the option to delay the ban by 90 days. if a deal is in process to spin off tiktok's u.s. assets from its chinese parent company, bytedance. and so far, bytedance has been unwilling to engage with any of the buyers who have put their hands up for this platform. so the question will be whether trump can convince bytedance, convince china to change its mind and work out a deal to sell this platform to an american owner. >> yeah, that is the question, claire duffy. thank you very much for your reporting. let's talk more about this with former national security and intelligence official timothy edgar. timothy, thank you for your time this morning. so let's start with that, because i know you told my producer that there isn't really anything the the outgoing or incoming president can do to easily reverse this. but as you heard from claire duffy's reporting there, trump told nbc yesterday that he will most

likely delay this ban. but how can he do that and implement this 90 day extension if there is no deal in in progress? and bytedance has up until now refused to sell off tiktok? >> well, the short answer is that he can't. >> the law gives him that 90 day extension only if a deal is in progress, and that means that there have to be actual documents that are signed and a firm agreement to buy tiktok, and we haven't seen anything like that. so, you know, he could issue some order or some statement, but it won't have the force of law and it won't protect companies who are worried about enforcement of the ban. >> timothy, the law that was passed last year singled out applications developed by bytedance, which owns tiktok. but the number one app and we we can put it up on our screen on both the google store and the the apple store is rednote, which is another social media app owned by a chinese entity,

are the same national security vulnerabilities applicable to bytedance and tiktok, applicable to what is the most popular downloaded app now on these stores? >> i would say yes. and the law also gives the president the power to designate additional apps or websites that have the same concerns, not just from china, but also from russia or other. what the law calls foreign adversaries. so now i you know, trump is probably trying to save tiktok rather than to ban rednote, but he does have the power under the law to ban rednote using the same process. and now the supreme court has said that that's constitutional. >> so so i understand you cited with tiktok on this case, especially because, you know, we saw this case pit free speech against national security concerns, even if the national security risk is really real. i mean, obviously, you know, we've seen china fly spy balloons in the u.s. to

collect intelligence, but you also say that there are better alternatives to shutting down tiktok. what are those alternatives, then, that would also address these national security concerns, exposing so many millions of americans data? >> yeah. so i agree with the supreme court that there are real risks to data privacy and other national security risks. tiktok was working with oracle, a u.s. based cloud provider, to provide real safeguards technical, physical and administrative safeguards using sound cybersecurity principles when it was storing its data in the oracle cloud. and i think that's exactly the kind of approach that would allow us to make sure that we safeguard national security while protecting free speech. and so i was disappointed that that approach was abandoned. >> yeah. the fear is, is that the chinese

government could compel in many ways, these companies to use the algorithm to spread misinformation or to get that sensitive information. the question i've heard, though, is why is there the consumer's personal information safer on u.s. apps that might be able to do the same thing? why is it safer on x than it would be on tiktok if someone were compelled to hand over what's on one of these platforms? >> uh, the short answer is that it really isn't safer. you know, these apps collect enormous quantities of personal data, and that data is vulnerable. it's vulnerable to governments who are demanding it using legal pressure. it's also vulnerable to spying. and there's no reason to think that with a tiktok shutdown, that the chinese intelligence agencies are going to close up shop, they're going to continue to try to get our data, and there's enormous opportunities for them to do so through all sorts of other apps. and so what we really need is a comprehensive data privacy law that protects all

of our data. and that would be a much better way of addressing these national security concerns. >> but i guess for the takeaway for those who are watching who were tiktok users, there's not much that can be done to get around this ban. but of course, we'll see what president elect trump comes up with when he takes office tomorrow. timothy edgar, good to see you. thank you for the conversation. thank you. well, we are now entering the third hour of a ceasefire between israel and hamas. and this is a live picture at the israel gaza border. three israeli women are set to return home today after more than a year in captivity. a special hospital, you see there, a special hospital unit. an entire ward has been set up to take them in and help them recover. >> displaced gazans are returning home to the rubble that remains in places like rafah, gaza city. humanitarian groups say that at least 4000 aid trucks are lined up ready to help them. this is the first

phase of the ceasefire deal. 33 israeli hostages will be set free in exchange for hundreds of palestinian prisoners. let's get now to cnn's chief security analyst, jim sciutto, live in tel aviv right now. jim, the minute by minute is not clear. we do know some of the choreography that's expected to happen over the next two hours. what do you know? and tell us what's happening now. >> and we do now know the identities of the three, the first three israeli hostages to be released as soon as well, just under two hours from now. they are three women not in the military. romy gonin, 24 years old. she was taken from the nova music festival. you'll remember where so many of the deaths happened in those hours, those early hours of october 7th. her family says she was shot in the hand and that her wounds worsened in captivity. that's romy gonin, emily demar, also in this first

group. she's 28 years old. she was taken from kfar aza in the south. she's british, israeli. her mother has said she as well was shot in the hand as well as had shrapnel injuries in her leg. blindfolded, bundled in the back of her own car as she was taken. so many in addition to the undeniable psychological wounds that they have suffered during captivity, also have physical wounds which doctors will be treating once they're released. and the third, doron steinbrecher, 31 years old. she's a veterinary nurse. she was taken from her apartment in the kibbutz kfar aza as well, and there was video showing her, alongside two others who were released from hamas, released by hamas in january 2024. that was a proof of life at the time. so three families, three israeli families are going to be able to see their loved ones again today. but of course, so many other families close to

100 who will not also happening during those early hours of this agreement is that 95 palestinians, 95 palestinian prisoners will be released as well. our understanding is that 20 of them are teenagers. we should note that because of the laws in israel, many of those prisoners are held under what's known as administrative detention. they haven't been convicted of any crimes, so there will be a mix of those who are released and many hundreds more over the course of this agreement. this is, though, a small step, a powerful one in the 470 days since october 7th, and the painful war that has followed, painful for the hostages. painful, of course, for the people of gaza, many tens of thousands killed there, more than 40,000. in fact, the vast majority of them civilians, people there desperate for a breath of relief as well, that israeli-hamas ceasefire

has officially begun. earlier this morning, local time. coming up, we go to the west bank, where we expect those palestinian prisoners to be released, and we expect to see them soon as part of this deal. >> super man, the christopher reeve story, february 2nd on cnn. >> if you're frustrated with occasional bloating or gas, your body's giving you signs. it's time to try a line. a line probiotic was specifically designed by gastroenterologists to help relieve your occasional bloating and gas. when you feel the signs, it's time to try a line. >> so are you guys still thinking about going to italy? >> yeah, just booked the flights. >> oh, great. you guys are going to love it. >> we went last year and it was just so beautiful. >> mhm. >> frank. mhm. >> mhm. >> frank you okay bud. >> this is the best steak i've

israel and hamas now in place, the first phase will see dozens of israeli hostages exchanged for hundreds of palestinian prisoners. that taking place over the course of six weeks, with a small group today. cnn's nadia bashir, she is outside ofer prison in the west bank. that's where we expect to see the 95 palestinian prisoners released sometime today. and, nadia, you made a good point last hour that many of those held in these prisons were not convicted of crimes that they're being held under administrative detention. do we know the makeup of this initial 95, in terms of what their legal status is, or any more details about them well, at this stage, jim, it is still somewhat up in the air. >> as you mentioned, we have that list of 95 that was issued last night by the israeli authorities or the night before. now we are getting a list from palestinian authorities and organizations. they believe 90 will be

released this evening. of course, it remains to be seen once that release actually takes place. but as you mentioned, at least 30 on that initial list are believed to have been held under administrative detention, so no charges laid against them, no ongoing legal process or trials to speak of. as we understand it, at this stage, the 95 potentially set for release this evening include 70 women and 25 men, among them ten teenagers. and of course, this is the first day in what is set to be a staggered process over the course of six weeks, in which we will see hundreds, potentially, of palestinian prisoners and detainees being released. of course, in the broader context, there are more than 10,000 palestinians currently held in israeli custody. more than 3000 of them are held under administrative detention, according to recent ngo data. and in terms of the process, of course, as you mentioned, we are outside the ofer prison. we are expecting this to be one of the key release points for those palestinian prisoners and

detainees over the course of this first phase of the ceasefire agreement, if it continues to be upheld, much as we saw during that four day truce back in november 2023, and once again, we are expecting the international committee for the red cross to play an important role in the logistics and coordinating the transfer of these prisoners and detainees onwards into the occupied west bank or into east jerusalem. of course, this is still a fragile process and it remains to be seen how this is carried out. later this evening. there was, of course, a delay in the ceasefire being implemented, so that may lead to a delay in those three hostages being released from gaza into israeli territory and subsequently, of course, for the prisoners and detainees to be released. of course, that is very much dependent on confirmation that those three hostages are indeed returned back to israeli territory. and what is also important to note is what we saw last time around during the four day truce is huge celebrations taking place across the occupied west bank.

limited celebrations in jerusalem. we know that israeli authorities are cracking down. they've already carried out some raids. in fact, just yesterday for families in parts of jerusalem who are expecting their loved ones to be released, whether we see any further crackdown here in the occupied west bank later tonight, that remains to be seen. jim. >> and to your point, this is a delicate process. each stage has dangers of delays and other roadblocks. we'll be watching those closely. nauta bashir in the west bank. thanks so much. we should not, though, underestimate what a change this is after 470 days of just relentless war, a ceasefire for the people of gaza, relief for some israeli families. over the course of the next six weeks, three of them today. with those three female israeli hostages to be released. joining us now is professor allan frommherz. he's the director of the middle east studies center at georgia state university. professor, thanks so much for joining us this morning. your

time. let me ask you one very basic question. gaza has been devastated in this this war, more than a year and a half of bombing. if you look at the landscape, thousands of structures, homes, buildings destroyed, most of the hospitals no longer operational. desperate need for food and sadly, hamas remains there, weakened. but hamas remains. what is the future of gaza look like? just even over the next several weeks and months? >> first, thank you for inviting me here on this historic day and this day of wonderful optimism for the region. as a historian myself, i can say, and i hope that this will maybe be a day that is written down in the history books as a day of change and opportunity, as you say, for the people of gaza. >> and i think there's two options here for the middle

east that are represented by two of the major players here, which are hamas and qatar, and the gulf, which is a place of great prosperity, a place where things are happening all the time that are that are positive and moving forward. and then, as you're saying, the devastation that is happening in gaza. but what is interesting is that places like qatar and places like the gulf are coming in and are being a part of this peacemaking process in a way that was never seen before in previous peace, great peace agreements in this region. and i think that's a really exciting and positive and optimistic trend that is happening. >> i don't want to get ahead of ourselves here because of course, there are so many steps to come in this agreement between israel and hamas. three phases. the first phase, six weeks, a really a handful of hostages every week over the course of those six weeks. but we do know that the trump administration, like the biden

administration, would very much like to get a larger agreement, a normalization of relations between saudi arabia and israel at some point following this agreement and other events in recent weeks, of course, the weakening of hezbollah, the fall of bashar al-assad. are we closer to such an agreement i think we are, and i think we are coming to a sea change, and we're seeing the generational shifts that are happening in the middle east. >> the old resentments that seem to be eternal are starting to shift in many ways over the long term. i'm not saying it's going to happen immediately, but we are seeing new people in charge in the middle east, and it's taken a while for the older resentments to pass away, but they are starting to do so. we're seeing new leadership, even though mohammed bin salman is controversial not only in saudi arabia, but in the west and in israel, he is making

extensive and incredible intrinsic changes. and i do think the abraham accords, which are a coup for the trump administration from its first term, will be expanded in this second term of the administration and hopefully will include such important keystone members of the accord, as they hope to include saudi arabia yeah, listen, perhaps a moment of hope, certainly a moment of hope here in israel, in gaza as well. >> and we'll see if more broadly in the region. professor alan podhoretz, thanks so much. coming up, my colleague cnn's bianna golodryga got an exclusive interview with israel's foreign minister, gideon sa'ar. we will have her next hour, as well as sound from that interview. please do stay with us.

named are two israeli americans who are presumed based on the information israeli officials have to be alive. they are sagui dekel-chen and keith siegel. again, 33 names, 31 of them taken on october 7th. and as i was saying earlier this hour, it's coming up on, well, just about an hour and a half when we do expect the first three israeli hostages to be released from gaza. joining me now is former cnn senior international correspondent arwa damon. she is the founder and president of international network for aid, relief and assistance, an organization that provides medical and mental health care to children across the globe, including in gaza. and we know right now that there are thousands of aid trucks ready to go into gaza, because the need there is so great for the most basic supplies, food, medical supplies as well. arwa,

can you tell us what the state is of the people of gaza as this ceasefire deal gets underway? >> hi, jim. well, i've been messaging with the team all morning. literally, they were counting down the minutes for this to begin and sort of struggling to express their emotions because there's, you know, joy and relief. but at the same time, there's sorrow and many people are afraid that, you know, right now the floodgates of all of the pain that they have had to bury for the last 15 months is going to open, and it's just going to hit them like a tsunami. one of our staffers, our program coordinator, used to actually messaged me saying, you know, we thought now would be the time where we could pause. and kneel down and cry. but actually we're realizing that right now is when we're going to have to double down on our work. and of course, he's talking about the work in the humanitarian sector, because so

much is needed. you know, on my trips to gaza and i've been there four times, i was always and continue to be struck by how you would watch people moving around. and their steps were heavy. there was no spark in their eye, and they would actually describe themselves as zombies. and now people are saying, you know, we're beginning to feel a little bit more alive. but of course, all of this is coupled with, you know, anxiety when it comes to going back to their homes, their neighborhoods, what they're actually going to find there. of course, for the vast majority, it's going to be nothing. and then actually, how long is this? is this going to hold for you know, a lot of people are saying it's finally over and you don't really have the heart to tell them. you know, it's very, very shaky. >> you know, the description. it's so similar to what i was hearing from a mental health professional last hour, describing the coming home process for former israeli hostages that many of them display this, this passivity, which is really a

self-preservation tactic in the midst of so much suffering. let me ask you this, because there have been consistent questions about who controls the distribution of aid inside gaza when this aid comes in, and that some of it is siphoned off by hamas and other groups. they're basically a power play by those groups as this flood of aid comes in. who's going to be in charge of getting it to the people who need it most? >> well, jim, let me just try to clarify it a little bit. i mean, does hamas end up with its hands on some of the aid? you know, yes, of course. this we actually saw occurring mostly in the beginning what has been the big challenge over the last, you know, seven, eight months has been these criminal gangs and looters that actually operate in what's known as the red zone. so areas that were under israeli control that we could only cross through with very careful coordination with the israelis. you know, we could only move through these areas once we had gotten a very specific green

light. there are obviously concerns right now that there will be some sort of, you know, it's not so much a power play as sort of a need to try to somehow secure gaza, because rule of law has been completely and totally decimated. and of course, as we see in so many war zones, you know, when you eradicate rule of law, all sorts of nefarious actors begin to emerge. but i can assure you, jim, that we control the aid. humanitarian organizations control the aid. we control the distribution of it. >> arwa damon, i believe we lost. we lost the signal there. but arwa, damon, thanks so much for giving us a vision inside gaza, where, of course, there's been so much suffering through these last 470 days. and we appreciate the work she does. we continue to monitor events here as we're coming very close to the moment when the first israeli hostages of hamas will finally get their freedom and be reunited with

their families, as well as close to 100 palestinian prisoners as well. and we'll be right back. >> after a big comeback, donald trump begins his second term. history unfolds live on cnn. join jake tapper and anderson cooper as the 45th president. >> donald john trump becomes the 47th. >> the inauguration of donald trump tomorrow at eight. >> okay, everyone, our mission is to provide complete, balanced nutrition for strength and energy. >> ensure with 27 vitamins and minerals, nutrients for immune health, and ensure complete with 30g of protein by moderate to severe crohn's disease and my ulcerative colitis symptoms kept me out of the picture. >> now there's skyrizi. >> i've got places to go and i'm feeling free. >> control of my symptoms means everything to me. control is everything to me. >> and now i'm back in the

joins me now from jerusalem. bianna, given the events of today, a hopeful point amidst so much suffering since those 470 days, since october 7th, i wonder what was his view of this agreement and what follows? >> well, jim, this was gideon sa'ar first interview with the international media since taking on the position, rejoining the government as foreign minister. >> what he said is that he expects the framework of the hostage release deal today to be fulfilled, which could begin in just over an hour's time from now, 4 p.m. local time. and, jim, as you noted, we've been near a deal for so long now for 15 months, this war has gone on only to see a deal fall apart last minute. i asked him what, if anything, the u.s. election back in the united states. what role, if anything, that had in getting this particular deal to where it is across the finish

line. here's what he said. >> no doubt that the efforts that. america invested and of course, president trump, that came with a very powerful message right after his elections. and they were coordinated both administration. so altogether. of course, the involvement of america, the strong involvement of america, the strong involvement of president trump, was very, very influential and helpful during the last weeks. it's not that the president trump and the ingoing. administration forced us to do something we didn't want to do. we work together to achieve a goal that was very important for us. and president trump was very helpful in achieving that goal. but. whoever describes it

differently, i think is not accurate with what happened. >> hamas's leadership has been defeated. hamas is a military no longer poses a threat to israel. your former defense minister, galant, said that all of the war conditions had end goals had been achieved last summer, as well as the defense establishment. given your commitment to bringing all of the hostages home, barring a major infraction by hamas in breaking this deal, are you committed to seeing phase two and phase three implemented and thus the release of all of the hostages? >> i disagree that it was achieved. we see the pictures from gaza today. hamas is still in power in gaza. what happened? if they will stay in power? it is not automatic to move from one phase to the other phase. and also the united states of america agree it's not automatic. we will

negotiate with good faith. we want the the full deal to be successful, but we will not abandon the objectives. if we could achieve these objectives in another way. >> and, jim, foreign minister shah went on to say that, quote, the war is not an objective in itself, but we will not leave hamas as a ruling power on the street there in gaza. which begs the question, jim, that that we've been discussing, that so many world leaders have been pressing israel on what does the day after look like, if not hamas, then who will be governing gaza? the israeli government has been very much opposed to the palestinian authority playing that role, which is something that the united states, or at least the biden administration, has been supportive of nonetheless. gideon sa'ar says that he is fully committed to the release of all of the hostages, which would mean, jim, that the phase two and phase three would have

to be successfully implemented in this hostage deal after phase one, which would see the release of 33 hostages. he, we should note, also voted in favor of the cease fire hostage deal. >> well, it's interesting because that is the assurance that the hostage families are getting from the incoming trump administration as well. a number of them met with mike wallace, the incoming national security advisor, yesterday. and he said the trump administration is committed to seeing this deal through until all the hostages are released. of course, the test will be, as you well know, bianna, whether they're able to to push that through, given all the potential pitfalls. appreciate the interview. bianna golodryga. thanks so much. we'll continue to follow events here. we're coming up to just about an hour. victor and amara to when we expect to see the first three israeli hostages finally get their freedom. >> all right, jim sciutto, thank you for the reporting there. and we'll get back to you. today is also president biden's final full day in

office. new cnn reporting that he is leaving feeling nostalgic for his decades long political career, but also frustrated over the way it ended. >> the president is scheduled to spend his final full day in south carolina, a state that helped catapult him into office in 2020. cnn senior white house producer betsy klein has more. obviously, this is a state that holds a special place in president biden's heart. tell us more about what we can expect. and of course, why south carolina? >> certainly, amara, a lot of significance in south carolina for president biden and the entire biden family. it is the place that he largely credits with catapulting him to victory back in 2020, turning the tide of that flagging campaign. it is also the place where the family gathered together for the first time after the death of beau biden, the president's son from brain cancer. now, i was with the president back in january of 2024 when he went to charleston, telling the mother emanuel ame church that those congregants, as well as the black community of south carolina, are the reason that i

stand here today as your president. of course, there were some early signs back then that his messaging on democracy just wasn't breaking through to voters. and he was also interrupted multiple times by protesters during that appearance, calling for a ceasefire in gaza. of course, taking on new significance today. but he is returning under very different circumstances. his final full day in office as president and also the end of a decades long career in public service. now the president feels he has a record of accomplishment, but is also frustrated by and feels some level of resentment toward his team, for he thinks they did not tell a good enough story about his administration. and also he is frustrated that he is handing over the keys to trump. but today, a moment to mark martin luther king jr.. day and honor his legacy in charleston. >> all right, betsy klein, thank you very much. and meteorologist allison chinchar is here to track the extreme cold that will fall upon the

inauguration tomorrow. a huge part of the country as well. >> you don't have to be in d.c. to feel it. it's going to be incredibly cold. so we take a look at the map just to show you the scope. you're talking nearly 150 million people under these extreme cold alerts. some begin today, some will begin tomorrow. but the point is, it's going to be cold. even colder than january would normally be. even some of the southern cities are going to get in on it. you could see a city like atlanta that may not even make it above freezing in the coming days. yes, that takes us to d.c., where the inauguration is. there's an obvious reason why they moved things indoors. because this isn't just typical january cold. this is dangerous cold. those wind chills could get down into single digits even in the afternoon hours. those temperatures likely to hover in the low to mid 20s. behind that. that's all the air is coming from, is behind this cold front. and in the short term, it could also even bring some rain and snow to the northeast. >> oh all right. thank you allison. >> more to deal with. >> huge weekend for football. the pros and in college. coy wire joins us now. or just a
