situation of ethnic armenian refugees living in armenia, 2 months after fleeing their homelands in the corps know care about the article fairly. so welcome to the program. these really military says 2 hostages, released by hamas militants have now entered israel, a mouse which is considered a terrorist organization by multiple countries is expected to hand over 10 more hostages to the international red cross. as part of the true steel with israel, beer release comes on the final day of the expenditures guitar. a mediators have been pushing both sides to agree on further extensions of the cease fire. somebody. so coal is in jerusalem and has more so me. what's the latest on today's releases? as yeah, well a 50 year old,

the woman and her 73 year old. the mother have been the release. they've been handed over and are now on is riley soil. and these 2 ladies are doing nations and they're both these rallies of the russian citizens. and they were given as a kind of a gift that a to russia at ford support for the palestinian people. so they're not part of the deal. and we're still waiting for another 5. is there any women and 5, is there any children to cross the border to these really side? and the after that little happened, we should expect the reduce of the 30th on this thing in the prisoners that are a, has been, is ready, j. this is all being overshadowed by an unconfirmed claim by her mazda that a family of is really hostages has been killed among them. a baby who was abducted on october 7th. what do we know at this point?

yeah, we're talking about the b. let's say if i'm a lead, we're talking about a 10 months, the euro, the baby, and his s 4 year old, the brother and the mother. and the 3 of them have just been seeing a doctor. they get into a dogs on the 7th of elk sober. now the is ready, military had information that they were in the gaza. a currently a how mouse is saying that they don't know their whereabouts. a, the idea is not certain as to whether this is true or not. in any case, it is really, officials are saying that they are responsive as of how mosse is responsible for their with being. this is also what the assignment is saying. a probably just don't, nobody else has spoken to the family. and i've said that it's a most it to bring the 3 allies back to is right. it's only a few hours before this truce expires. how are the talks for

a new extension going to well, there is definitely a lot of pressure from the various parties when we're talking about the cut, the egypt and the americans to extend the same truce. uh, the, the question is now who will be released in the next in the next about us? because we will have to look at the new formula if they will continue according to the existing formula, which is the release of 10 women and children. and then return is run ready. $630.00 a is a prisoner's husband's name is randy presence, and then it's easy. but how mazda is saying that the, the difficulties in finding prisoners are finding captives inside garza and they're not looking for another formula. one of these slides is talking about a long term

a ceasefire. that will also bring about the release of men and the men and julie men, and then meant above the age of the reserves. those the then the with female soldiers . and that the and it will also include the release of is rarely a soldier. no, of course in return is really what i have to return is. so this big heavy weight, if i still get prisoners, those who have been in prison for life substances, for a tax and a for murder. that was journalist, saw me circle in jerusalem, thanks for that. or in return for her mouse freeing hostages. israel has been releasing palestinians health and is rarely jails by tuesday, a total of a $180.00 palestinians had been released. he w, correspond antonio kramer reports on one of them. a 17 year old whose families says

he was arrested and detained the offer throwing molotov cocktails. for days, no, emanuel levy has been anxious. the waiting for this moment, her 17 year old son holmes, it was expected to be released from an it's very prison, as part of the delicate truth agreement between is run and thomas is the national. she has been in prison for 10 mountains about so i haven't heard from him. so what's the issue? what i'm just waiting for him when they come home. and then a moment of joy and relief comes about 16 men. he was arrested, the asperity persecution accused him of amongst other things, supporting terrorism. creve. this was in the home an arson on nation, this crowns his family said he was throwing motor tough cop to. he was never sent and he is one of the under 18 year olds. that is what i agreed to release from prison. many a still being held in administrative detention. all like,

i'm just excited to be among my people and with my family, i feel extremely happy. now the are the nobody here wants to talk politics as this fee is that they could be easily re arrested. many of them will have you as the mother is worried about her son's health and was that and i did i, i'm upset. my son wasn't like this. every rate you had to hack out. he was very nice clothes. he's not like you useful. he's changed a lot connected with the yes. for now the family is just relief that the some is back home terminates domestic intelligence chief has warrant that because of the israel home us war. the risk of islam is attacks is real and higher, then it has been for a long time. it continued, we see calls in jihad of spectrum's for attacks and for a kind of and i asked to turn on to the middle east conflict. that's what to him.

last husband long said in the statement, adding that authorities for ramping up security for jews. jewish institutions, and large events in germany with me in the studio is political correspondent, emily, or dean. emily, what kinds of threats are we talking about here? full force he's. i'm specifically jennings, domestic intelligence services, all worried about attacks against the west, carried out in germany, both across europe. now, how long, specifically the head of the german domestic? i'm the intelligence of us who we just saw in the picture. he raised the right to thoughts, in fact, the tonsils of such an attack has never been. hi a. so essentially he's saying that this could happen any day. and um, what we're seeing at the moment is especially in large all of the conflict in the middle east, or far as he's all worried about um, to heart of scripts like ices. or i'll try to,

could instrumental lies the high some of the emotions around this conflict to i'm going to support and to encourage others to turn out to tax. does this have anything to do with numerous of pro palestinian demonstrations of being canceled or banned? especially here in berlin in the past couple of weeks as well. when we spoke to a star sees about these bonds, they said the bonds were linked to the concerns of the them giving rise to enter the semester components to them, giving some rise to estimates of them as a whole. so um, that was not worry initially, but what we're seeing at the moment, we seen several protocol of sending them instructions across germany. the majority of them, how stave, peaceful of the majority of processes have been protesting peacefully and had the wrong the head of age of intelligence services. also, it continues to be said that we need to distinguish between peaceful protest us and

those who are taking advantage of these process. and um, there is a consignment as the most groups in full pricing, these protests that they of they have to be separated and lost and police are doing precisely thought. hm. so what does jeremy plan to do about this heightened security? well, on the one hand, we're seeing increase police po, presence in front of your school synagogues, homes are curious, or addition institutions, really. i'm at the same time. obviously, we're approaching the christmas season and there is a sort of uh, the amazon is very reminiscent of 2016 when we had a big terrorist attacks. they had a big tourist attack here in berlin at a christmas market at the so called. and i tried plots where 11 people were killed . it was a huge intelligence surface of failure. and that obviously being reminiscent all of that. and of course things are of course in high lot. so we're seeing increased

raise was an increased arrest and even the interior ministry has said that they're looking into the porting offenders as well as the tax. because emily gordon, thanks so much i or to crane now or a soldiers are digging in ahead of winter despite the spring and summer counter offensive this year, making little progress and doubts over continued us to for a frame remains defined and it's fine against russia. it will be used correspondents, mateus building, i headed to the eastern town of lima and to assess the mood among frontline troops . visa, which is a just coming back from the front line a few days to recover a bit of training and the return to the trenches. there's not much movement there, but the fighting is really felt that i think the richard, it's an attempt to move just feels like the russians never run out of ammunition

close to those. that's kind of frustrating. excuse me for straight despite that though, we stand here to defend our freedoms, our country. that's more important than the amount to they have munitions loose and we are in the hinterland of the mind section of the front lines. you have barely moved in almost a year. ukraine's counter offensive is now widely seen as a failure and as a width and co would you repeat when to take so little is likely to show in the complicated those. are you guys doing that? the ground here is really strange when you get the impression that it doesn't absorb water at all, it becomes really difficult to move along. the ground becomes some kind of mixture

of swamp and clay well with this, the guys who are holding you back to 18 wounded comrades from the trenches. that is also part of the training. a casualty numbers remain a state secret, but it is clear that many units are affected. needing to fee is about maintaining compet street. next year ukraine was spend, harv, it's any other budget on defense records. and yet for many basic needs, including medical supplies, the armies to depends on private donations and we do like it. as long as you're most customer civilians could be doing more work than what they don't want to. they are tied. they have been told that everything is great out to you. so they lift the lines as before, and we live here. we on 2 different well lost completely different in this

world, much and bullets soldiers swallowed their disappointment and prepare for the long hold. they hope that the country the defending can do with the same ukrainian foreign minister, the mutual labor has insisted. the war with russia has not become a stalemate. the spine concerns over a lack of progress on the front lines. speaking of the nato ukraine meeting in brussels, columbus that ukraine's goal to retake all its territory remains unchanged. they also called on nato members to ramp up their production to weapons for their parts . nato member states reiterated their commitment to stand with ukraine for as long as it takes main nato. membership for ukraine is also a major topic of discussion in brussels. nato secretary general again stilton burke said it was not a question of if. but when i was agreed that ukraine will become

a member of naples, we have now provided recommendations on ukraine's priority reforms, including the fight against corruption, strengthening the rule of law, and supporting human rights on minority rights. the ukraine is closer to nato than ever before. we will continue to support them on the path to membership and will continue to support ukraine's fight for freedom for someone else as we can now talk to our eastern europe, editor roland, going to rank of from on all of what we just heard is nothing new what specifically does ukraine need most from its allies right now? well indeed, there is not much new. what do it here from the key of the wish list? so to say, hasn't changed since last year. so basically, ukraine's need great needs more things, more armored vehicles, more bones,

more missiles green is waiting for the f. $165.00 to judge and a is very much hopefully that will come in early $24.00. but on the other hand, ukraine, you need some new things that you've gotten in commander in chief general. the lady's last name, as described in his article in the economist magazine, for example, more sophisticated electronic welfare and brand also needs more drones much more drones. because a russia is um, has stepped up production and your brain needs them to, to bring through. but in general, the ukraine needs just to be sure that the emigration for the jewelry, especially for the january, is coming and there will be no stops. you know, the truth is spelled out for all their pledges. western military's are running low and i munition to give to ukraine. how worried should he be? of okay, of should be very worried and it is

a very worried because um we are saying that there is still no plan for the for the help from the united states, the major supplier of a mandatory support for your crime. we are hearing that in europe, the pledge of $1000000.00 attend their shells will not be met this year. so there's a problem there. we're also seeing that some new european governments, naples of ukraine now. um the block, i think the military have for example slovakia and, and we don't know how, how will germany, boom, boom, germany will be in a position to help more germany has pledged double. it's help for ukraine from 4 to 8000000000 euros, but on the other hand, germany has some problems. at home, was dozens of billions of euro's now missing in the german federal budget. so this is, this is a major concern for your credit and how the next year will play out. we've been talking a lot about of ukraine fatigue,

but it kind of looks like there might be some zelinski fatigue setting in, in ukraine. a recent pull by the keeper, international institute of sociology found that ukrainians are losing trust in their government. what's behind the trump? as well, um it's, it's a complicated issue on the one hand it's, it's normal to, to be losing and that the government is no um is, is not, is not maintaining that very high level of support for a long time over $6070.00 or 80 percent. it's been for, for over a year. now we have about 40 percent for the government. and we have different figures for presidents landscape, but generally they are much higher. and i think one of the major reasons for people not to be satisfied with the okay and, and government is how the mobilization is working. so how people that'd be mobilized. how the and there were some very, very prominent corruption cases in ukraine. that's why president has changed the

defense minister a few months ago. and of course, people are tired. this is normal. this war is going on a new crime for nearly 10 years. it started with the russian and exemption of crime . yeah. and the counter offensive and summer was not as successful as many in ukraine hopes to be sold. the hopes were also very high. so it was inevitable that this kind of a, um, a process of support that the, the support is no longer so, so, so high as it was in spring or even in the summer. now, as rome, i'm going to rank to thank you so much of this we conflict. done was as a corporate foundations for lend foreign policy forum there. sarah kelly talked to the ukranian ambassador to germany, alexi my kids about the shortcomings in the ukranian counter, offensive dwindling support from western allies and the prospect of

a difficult winter. the stalemate is not because we have discussions. the settlement is because we're not armed. no, the stalemate might be for the insufficient. the defense might be because we got from, from our partners a bit more than 50 tanks or, or we have 3 irish t, a systems from germany, which is maximum germany could deliver within those 2 years. but as i always say, just plays those 3 systems with, with the range of 40 kilometers on the territory of 600000 square kilometers and you crate. this is the reality. and you can watch the whole interview with ukraine's and bassett, or to germany on conflict zone coming up right after the show. but 1st, a quick look at some other stories making headlines around the world. today. 3
