11:05 am
live very close to the guys and border and they weren't technically assisting many thousands who were requiring a health care inside israel. they would go and pick them up and bring them into israel to it so that they could have that health care. so that, that could be one of the reasons why they would pick those. i'm saying that it was on humanitarian grounds because of health concerns. but definitely good news for their families, though they're still concerned for their husbands. and of course of the other hostages. still be this distilling, doza absolutely. do we know about the deal that secured their release? we're not too much detail on these deals. as you can imagine. we know that could. tom played a big role, but particularly in this one, egypt has also played a big role that egypt and could talk, working to as taught to negotiate with him of israel working through them to try and get them. now we, we, we were hearing loss, not room is of the 5th steve hostages may soon be released and those tools are ongoing. but this sticking point seems to be that how most of the mounting fuel
11:06 am
will be allowed as part of these shipments that they would, that fuel be allowed into guns. that in order for those cost just to be released, that something that is route holding back on, they don't wanting to agree to that. so we are still waiting to see whether that might happen in the next day or 2. could talk to an agent playing a massive role, as i said, and they're continuing those negotiations to try and secure the release of more hostages. and rebecca, us media are reporting that washington has advised as well to delay its ground, defensive insight garza to try to secure the release of more hostages before it goes in a. what are we hearing from is rarely officials in that regard. well, it's a bit of a contentious issue because we have been hearing those reports, but israel, it pains to say that they're not taking orders from the us of us the saying that they're not giving orders as to what is what should happen to anybody as well uh sorry, b us rather definitely as of inputs to try and guide israel. they are desperately,
11:07 am
it may have been since this began trying to get out definitely there to nationals with us citizens that are in gaza. but of course, the release of all the hostages do you do as well. so very concerned about what the ground invasion could made for the future steps in this conflict. and whether it might dragon regional players from the north. if for example, that the internet has been a militant group in 11 on or perhaps other groups in serious. so a lot of concern about what a ground invasion could main folder for you to step. and you, the us playing a big role mediating and talking to israel. but once a game is route and the us stores it pains to say that they know being dictated by, by the us government. thank you so much for bringing this up to speed there. that's the w, corresponded rebecca rivers for more than 2 weeks in to the war as well. has stopped up. it's been barred meant of gaza saying it is heading home aust militant targets . the hamas lead garza health ministry now says that more than 5000 people have been killed in error strikes,
