open. let's speak to journalist kareem. i'll go go harvey, for more. joining me from cairo. a kareem. thank you for taking the time to speak with us. the roof of border crossing has reopened. can you tell us what effect this will have or yeah, where this is the moment it's open, the discussion exactly started about what kind of text is will it have? because the agreement is on 20 trucks is it can enter the goes us to from is, you know, that's an agreement that is done between the jukes, the sides is raise the, the, how much in the beginning. but the sub domain, obviously, is easy to use, right? and so the discussion is 20 trucks. now i'd say coming in was very limited surprised size. it's basically the canned foods and medicine and the some water, the biggest issue is it's actually the result. so the big discussions now,

what's happening next? the now the you and it says it's saying that the 20 trucks dropped in the ocean. they said that the, in the minimum requirements for the basic needs of the 2300000 people think of what the honda trucks of 8 deliveries to a day. eh, remember before the outbreak of possibilities 2 years, 2 weeks ago and the gaza strip was during it. is there any okay, that limited ok, well supplied by 450 trucks a day. so just in order to, to understand what's the relationship of this 20 trucks today. so the answer dropping the ocean, the how much also made a statement saying like this is throwing us into the eyes of the public opinion. and so the community now the discussion started, how does this continue? that is at least the minds from the error upside from the u. n. is that this becomes a more sustainable wave of the delivering states into the gaza strip. and just

clarify for us, why did it take so long to get what you're describing is a relatively small amount of life saving humanitarian aid across that border crossing. it was this, it was any opening of the border needs and that is this for parties. it says we met with egypt, it is right in order that this 8, the number is on the ball. and of course, how much ends you and we suppose to organize the deliveries itself within the causes. so that took several days because there was various demands on each site. the directions basically wanted to have an agreement that there's a more sustained to delivery of age coming in is right. and is want to limit it to also the to limit what this deliberate if because for example, and the password is essential for using the running the water pumps in the gaza strip. you know, normally the time at the basic needs of

a human being of water for itself is a 100 meter, a d at. so right now doesn't have an average of st. this of the for drinking for the basic is sunny. terry and identical needs for senator is just reading the survey. so in order to solve this problem and that you and also says it's fighting also that this, the delivery of the petrol that is to know, look that by these really sites and that is sending questions, is that going on in the background? well, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed that cream. that is cream of ohio journalist reporting from egypt, capital cairo, to a piece summit on the war is taking place today in the egyptian capital cairo, as well as a after thousands rallied in the city in support of palestinians. dozens of regional leaders, as well as prime ministers and ministers of foreign affairs from western states.

our meeting at the invitation of egyptian president opto fata of cc. also attending is un secretary general antonio, a good tax. let's be to the the use middle east analyst genres on us in, in the studio with me now for more of shawnee until a little bit more about what we can expect to come out of these talks in cairo today, a cc, the president of, of egypt he's very much concerned, he has a lot of pressure from within to support the palestinians, but he doesn't want to see any palestinian refugees on addiction ground and he's feels helpless. you know, we, he, we see now the ha ha costing opening. but this is very emotional. you know, way of helping to the huge problem. his eyes is on how to solve the, the, the future of the palestinian problem. he's hoping by 1st of all, this act of solidarity that he brings in a lot of the leaders from europe to counter a bit of what we've seen so far with lost support for israel. he wants to counter

that with a bit of a pledge to support the palestinians on the long run. and this of course is quite limited because we don't have as well we don't have the us on the annual around this table. but the junctions just like the jordanians both have peace agreements with israel. they feel that they need to do something because the feel, the pensions are bubbling, you know, within their, around among the public. and they, they are immediately effected. if anything, you know, with, with any escalation, so these major players, us around in israel, conspicuously missing, how much will they realistically be able to get done without them at the table, you know, for the, for the us. and it will definitely for these really, that's not your time for negotiations, is or at least feel like they need to go further down the military pass to eradicate as they claim the rule of how much and god but before that even open to any negotiations. and the, the way for this summer to somehow make some progress is try to look at the end game and the long term. so now there's somewhat of an agreement on you're going to

tell you an aspect there is to hope for hostages release. we've seen him, us with the release overnight may be signaling he's open for more humanitarian releases. and the aim is to see what would be the in game. where would the cost of being in $2.00 weeks, 2 months, 2 years. so that's may be something that all the players in the many various players from egypt to, to russia, to turkey, to the categories, to the recipients. might be able to agree on that are these. so these are the issues where you think that they might be able to find the most common ground, correct. but, and also me to keep you mind everything is, is, is pending the agreement of americans and is really players which are currently not very much interested in these negotiations. this, the situation is such as everybody's so afraid of escalation and to the effect that we also seeing japanese leader on the table here. because of the fear that the chinese by feeling bold and if they feel america is too preoccupied with the know

the middle east and ukraine. they might feel this is a time to make an advancement on, on taiwan. you know, this is this little book, you know, piece of land in the middle east has, you know, the escalation potential is so dire and could have consequences that resonate all over the world. and also a little bit about egypt role as host here. what are they hoping to get out of this? um, how useful can they be? well, well, for us, you see, you know, he, he always wants to say that he protects and he helps palestinians, but he's quite strong with the limit he is willing to up support he's, he's willing to give them a sense that he is not willing to see any posting is crossing into egyptian territory into the sign peninsula and he needs to show that he's doing something else. and this is his attempt to say ok, it's not helping in that aspect that i'm flying to an international diplomatic front to bring some sort of relief to the egyptian to be posting. is it a suffering? i hear you and i tried to do my best. thank you so much for bringing us up to speed there. that is, dw, is the middle east interruption, arizona. i appreciate that. now i'm

off has for you to, to american hostages for what it calls you, mandatory and reasons. the mother and daughter were among some $200.00 people, abducted by her last, during, at the tax on israel. on october 7th, us president joe biden spoke on the phone, the 2 american citizens and said he was overjoyed by the release of mother and daughter walked to freedom nearly 2 weeks after being taken hostage by the is for mister militant group, him us to american citizens, held by him us since october 7th were released. these 2 americans are now safely in the hands of his really, authorities in his room. we expect the team from the us embassy to see them very shortly. or the coming hours they will receive any support and assistance they need and of course, were very anxious to be able to re an item with their loved ones. 59 year old you to turn on and his 17 year old daughter and naturally were visiting

a couple what's new because of buddha, as positive a trip to israel to celebrate the jewish holidays. they were abducted by hum of done man as part of the deadly rampage and to israel that so around $200.00 captives dragged into gaza. judas, rabbi in illinois, spoke of his communities relief at the news of this safe for time. the phone didn't stop ringing every 2nd and all the community wanted to know if this is true, people reaching out from all over the world. so clearly people are very touched by this and we are beyond over joyed with this news. at the same time, it's important to reiterate that there are still over 200 hostages in the hands of terrorists loved ones. a very still missing says how to is a $200.00 empty places at us about dina. intel are viewed praying that soon they

too will be coming, hire date up. it's funny for charge reporting for us from jerusalem. i asked her earlier if there is now more hope that more hostages could be released is definitely the very 5 to 2 civilians have been our lease is raising hopes among the relatives of those who are still has captive an estimate of 200 people according to official numbers, the total number was 203, that's the number that easily is working with. and if the obviously do the math, that means that at least $201.00 people are still have captives. now that question of, but they're more i going to be able to use is connected to ultimately to the question when that's going to happen. and one has to understand that is really suff taken to the street. now they have been also taken to social media to media when his ations tried to raise awareness attention, making sure that all this for and governments are also missing, their citizens are putting pressure on israel to make sure they're not giving up on the hostages. that they do not become called drug damage,

as israel is getting prepared to move into gaza strip and already obviously those increased bombardments since october 7th. make people are very much worried here. what is that going to mean to the police to this but also to the hostages? so the lot of questions a lot of uh, in fact, a lot of uncertainty but also a go when it comes to the relatives of those have been taken to the street and go concerning the is where the government because they feel that down, they feel that there's not much information, in fact, almost non coming out of the, from the is where the government, in terms of where exactly the all so just all but also about the condition. and as things are going to continue, he underground people are getting more, more frustrating in fact. and he's trying to take that, that a that and go out to the street. but as i said, also to social media, to raise awareness. we're off their loved ones. and amongst is rarely civil society more generally. how is this news of the release of these 2 american hostages been

received. the people of course, overt joy by something positive, some positive news to clinch on to but also they are wondering and one has to understand that these are estimates traumatized since october 7th, when it comes to the question of security both by the events that happened on october 7th, but also by what israel said declared to work against commerce militants. what is that going to mean in terms of security for the people to whom israel? and this is also, in fact the question that people are raised when i was talking to ordinary citizens . to ease route words should be, feel safe as a jewel in the world, and i got really interesting as source. let's have a look at the reports showing you could be living her happiest life. she and to a friend know both recently became others for the 1st time being safe as jews in israel no longer feels like a given. i'm therapy,

3 years old. i never felt like i need to be ready to go. is there any, is my country is my home. i it's, it was always like history. it was always stories. stories that happened in the bath. that never happen again. by now. yeah. now it's, it's, it's our lives, the one to be able to leave if they have to. so they are organizing paper work for their babys calling me doesn't have a passport here. so we're preparing that. we saw earlier. this is maxime ation. that's. that's how this off from leaving a for we need to leave. the women's conversation revolves around the question of whether to stay or go. they say many people are torn. israel is made up of us, the jewish people and it will all.
