at midnight eastern time tonight, israel has committed to pause its military campaign and tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. eastern, hamas has committed to release 13 hostages it kidnapped during the october 7 terrorist attack. until then, the war continues. >> in the hours before the guns cease, the tanks and military bulldozers roll on. israeli soldiers continued their ground invasion today in northern gaza's residential neighborhoods that hamas uses to find and store its weapons. israel's top soldier said military pressure had help force hamas to release hostages. >> we are not ending the war. we will continue until we are victorious. >> hamas uses residential neighborhoods to fight block to block. it released this video showing attacks on israeli troops. israel's air campaign continued as well with 300 airstrikes today.

they release black and white videos of targeting senior commanders. on the ground, palestinians picked through the rubble of what they say was a residential building. this is an area to the south where many palestinians fled. >> we are scared to stay. they destroyed the building on top of us. we too scared to stay. >> they desperately search for the living but mostly pulled out the dead, overwhelmed by despair . israel's offensive is set to stop at 7:00 a.m. local tomorrow when it will also allow more humanitarian aid trucks to reach gaza. at 4:00 p.m. local, hamas vows to release 13 women and children. releases and the pause will continue for 4 days until more women and children are released. it was mediated by qatar, which hopes the plan becomes a

permanent cease-fire. >> we are hoping that momentum will carry and we will find more negotiations. >> violent scene was visit today but british secretary and former prime minister david cameron. residents were massacred and kidnapped 48 days ago. with the first hostage release just hours away, this family anxiously hopes to be reunited with 23-year-old romi. her parents spend time in her empty bedroom. right now, all they have are pictures. >> we worry a lot. we miss her a lot. i miss her a lot.

she's a free spirit. she needs to be free all the time. every kid, every child should be free. >> in tel aviv, demonstrators pray that tomorrow's release will lead to all hostages' freedom. an english teacher of one of the hostages. >> i just want to see the children come back. we want all of them to come back. but the first group of children, we will start breathing again, i think. >> and so it is in gaza where this family is also holding their breath for a pause they hope becomes a cease-fire. they fled from their home, then to a united nations school turn shelter and now to this tent. >> we want a complete cease-fire. we don't want a four-day troops. our kids are tired. we want to leave with our children safe and sound.

take us back home and implement a full cease-fire. >> as part of the deal, is will -- israel will also release 100 palestinians it holds in detention. for more, i turned to jordan's foreign -- former foreign minister. how important is this moment, not only for the war but the region? >> it is an important moment for several reasons. gaza is in desperate need to be able to bring in food, medicine, fuel to the strip, but it is more important also, people help that this is, yes, a truce, but one that might hopefully lead to a permanent truce. there are many in the region,

including king abdullah and president sisi, who met yesterday and talked about diplomatic efforts aimed at reverting -- converting the strips into a permanent one. >> israel vows to continue its operation until it fulfills its goals, the complete destruction of hamas. u.s. officials support the idea of israel's goals as well, but officials characterize the deal as incentivizing hamas to release more hostages. could subsequent hostage deals be possible or will they be in fact more difficult than this? >> i think it is it's entirely possible, and hamas has already said so. i think with every phase, with every deal, things are going to get more difficult. remember, hamas does not have an

interest in releasing old hostages. this is a negotiating card. if they do that, they are prone to more bombing by israel. >> the hostage situation is also difficult by the fact that hamas has admitted to qatari negotiators that it does not have control over at least all 90 women and children are so being held in gaza. how complicated is the effort overall to release at the very least these 90 women and children? >> i hope all women and children will be released, frankly, on both sides. israel is holding a lot of people. mostly people who have been throwing rocks, but i hope for a

time when all hostages will be released on both sides. >> israel has two categories of detainees, administrative detainees and those it has arrested. there are hundreds on the list to be possibly released tonight. in terms of the region, last weekend, jordin's king abdullah warned the conflict could expand -- jordan's king abdullah warned the conflict could expand. >> there are two areas of concern. one is that the conflict might extend and we are already seeing escalations on the lebanese border, though i still remain hopeful that there are enough indications to suggest that the conflict will not extend to lebanon. the united states does not want it extended into lebanon, and i

think he is exerting great pressure on israel not to escalate. to and hezbollah on the others also have no interest in expanding the conflict. we are already seeing groups of settlers supported by israeli forces that are going into palestinian buildings and taking people out. i am very worried, jordin is worried, and egypt also at what might be an israeli attempt, i think that is the worry and the u.s. administration have privately admitted that jordan and egypt are justified in these concerns and have publicly warned israel not to engage in any such operations. >> what you just suggested is not official israeli policy.

the intelligence minister in israel is not a member of the cabinet and did recently suggest that instead of bringing the palestinian authority to gaza, israel should advocate for "the voluntary resettlement of palestinians in gaza outside the strip. again, not official policy, but is that where jordanian and egyptian concerns come from? >> logically, if israel does not want to end the occupation and establish a state on palestinian territory and if it also does not want the palestinian majority, something it already has, then logically, israel is going to attempt to remove palestinians from palestinian territory, and it is that very concerned by jordan and egypt that israel might attempt that. until now, palestinians have

learned their lesson when they were expelled because of war and were never allowed to go back, even though there were many resolutions. we are not seeing the palestinian movement despite the heavy bombings. we are not seeing palestinians crowd on the egyptian border, for example. they do want to stay on that land and jordan and egypt are helping them do that by indicating that the borders will be closed because opening the borders is going to help israel empty the palestinian territory of its population. >> again, it is not israeli policy to do exactly that, empty these territories, we should say, and the government specifically says that. let's look forward on the day after. jordan and egypt have both publicly refused u.s. requests to involve arab troops into some

kind of day-after plan for gaza. do you think they could be persuaded otherwise, and do you think ultimately the palestinian authority will be part of ruling guys at the day after? >> the emphasis by the arab states, by jordan and egypt, certainly, is not just on who is going to rule gaza on the day after. we need to understand that things after october 7 cannot be the same as before october 7. it should be the end of the occupation, not who rules gaza and we go back to business as usual. it cannot be an open-ended process in which negotiations take place forever with no end in sight, but the endgame is the end of the occupation. once that endgame is defined, we can reverse engineer a process

to work out steps needed to get us there, but to talk about a political process once again that is open-ended means we have not learned any lesson. >> secretary of state antony blinken released a series of no es, things it did not want israel to do. president biden has repeatedly talked about the two-state solution in recent days and weeks. does that go far enough? >> the united states and international community have talked about two state forever, for about 30 years. if we are serious about the two-state solution, then we have to work for steps to end the occupation. the palestinian state on the west bank and gaza cannot emerge if the occupation is there, so any political process has to have as its objective first and

end to the occupation in order to establish a palestinian state. >> former foreign minister jordan, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> in the day's other headlines, the fire is out in a small eastern kentucky town and today, residents are returning home after a train wreck derailed thanksgiving. the train caught fire and spilled molten sulfur on wednesday. officials urged the roughly 200 people in livingston to leave while they tested for sulfur dioxide, which can cause problems. some of the evacuees sheltered in a school. csx said it would reimburse them, including with a thanksgiving dinner. police in niagara falls, new york, spent this day investigating wednesday's explosion at a border crossing with canada.

in this slowed footage, a speeding car vaults into the air at the rainbow bridge. a witness captured the fiery aftermath. the couple in the car were killed. three other border crossings closed briefly as a precaution, but federal investigators have ruled out terrorism. eric adams is denying he sexually assaulted a woman in 1993 when he worked for the police department. a civil summons asked for a trial and $5 million in damages. the mayor responded today. >> my career speaks for itself, and this is something absolutely that has never happened. i don't ever recall even meeting the person who made this allegation, but, you know, i have a city to run and unfocused. i have to make sure we continue. >> the court filings that the

plaintiff worked for the city at the time of the alleged assault but gives no other details. police raids in germany targeted members and supporters of hamas. in berlin, officers wearing face masks removed bags and large containers from apartments. germany bands even public statements supporting hamas. the interior minister said hamas and anti-semites must not feel safe. >> those who want to be part of our society cannot at the same time question israel's right to existence. we will continue to fight the battle against anti-semitism, especially when it shows itself as islamist ready to use violence. >> germany's crackdown began earlier this month. officials estimate there are about 450 hamas members across the country helping finance the group from abroad. in nepal, protesters came out in the tens of thousands demanding the monarchy be restored. riot police stood face to face with demonstrators blocking them

from downtown kathmandu. some in the crowd threw stones and officers beat them with bamboo batons and fired tear gas. nepal's monarchy was abolished in 2008 after protests forced an end to the king's authoritarian rule. there's word former president trump will visit argentina to meet with the country's new president-elect. the libertarian populist is often compared to mr. trump. back at home, americans celebrated thanksgiving with all the usual trimmings -- football, flashing parades. tom turkey held the annual macy's parade in new york. known for its inflatable characters, this year, they included baby yoda of "star wars" floating among manhattan skyscrapers. in florida, revelers gathered for the nation's original thanksgiving day parade that dates back to 1920.

still to come, we speak with the youngest ncaa coach about her team's national championship. an editor at food and wine offers recommendation on what to pour tonight and the future of the wine industry. finding fido -- how drones can help rescue lost dogs. plus much more. >> this is "the pbs newshour" from w eta studios in washington and in the west from walter cronkite school of journalism at arizona state university. nick: this has been the season of organized labor's discontent but also big labor gains from hollywood to the united auto workers, and picket lines continue, including hundreds of aces employees planning to strike in washington state tomorrow on black friday and the ongoing teachers union strike in portland, oregon. john yang examines what it all means. john: there have been a number of high-profile strikes this

year. autoworkers, hollywood writers and actors, and health care workers. other actions have been averted by last-minute deals. why do you think the unions are on such a winning streak at the bargaining table these days? >> there are a lot of things happening. i want to highlight two. one is that we have historically a very tight labor market right now. coming out of the pandemic for much of the past two years, then two job openings available for every unemployed worker. this means workers have a lot of leverage over employers right now, which makes it more likely that they feel willing at this moment to take risks, demand more because they know if they get fired that they can go out and get another job. at the same time, you also have inflation which has been scorching hot over the last few years. workers are really feeling the

pinch on their pocketbooks, that earnings are not going as far. that's one reason why we have seen a lot of labor activity. i would say other things started before the pandemic, which is that there has just been really brought popular support for unions. popular support for unions actually hit an all-time low during the great recession and has been on the rise steadily since then. i think there is just this heightened awareness about inequality in the country. now you have about 67% of americans saying they support unions and a lot of major labor teams this summer, a vast majority of americans said in a gallup poll they support workers in labor disputes. >> he said workers seem -- you said workers seem more willing to take risks. i think we have seen more tactics from unions. uaw strikers did something they have never done before. do you think there is a new generation of union leader and that this is sort of reflecting

their new role? >> totally. workers have been democratically electing new, more radical leaders to head their unions. there were decades throughout the 1990's and 2000's where the style of leadership was a little more chummy with big business. they have elected these new leaders who are making way more ambitious demands, are a lot more aggressive, and they are also involving workers a lot more in their negotiation. workers' expectations are very high, so when workers have very high expectations, union leaders do not want to disappoint, so they take workers out on strike and sort of don't back down until they get much higher wage increases and victories signed

into their contracts than i have in the past. >> companies have been on the losing side of this. what do they say about these contracts they have agreed to? how will it affect bottom lines? >> yes, i think prices will go up. we know that is true in hollywood. i believe it is also true with the auto industry. executives have threatened that with these strong new contracts, workers might start to see fewer jobs. they could have jobs sent overseas. they could see more workplaces close down. we have not seen that yet, that is yet to be seen, but i think this is sort of the way business has been describing the situation from their perspective. they also say coming out of the pandemic, there have been severe supply-chain shortages, labor chain shortages, and they are grappling with that as let -- as well as industry transformations.

hollywood is trying to deal with streaming platforms. there are a lot of moving parts for the companies as well. >> while these unions seem to be doing well, other workers are having trouble organizing. for instance, starbucks, amazon. what are the hurdles they are facing that they are having a hard time with? >> i would say is it's very important to remember that a lot of these union teamsters, the united auto workers, the union that represents hollywood, those unions have been around for close to 100 years. you are seeing a lot more difficulty with amazon and starbucks because those are engagement unions. those are two massive american employees that historically have not been organized that are very antiunion, that are pulling all the shots to suppress unions at their companies, so that takes a lot longer to unionized their workforces and they have barely even started. i think there is a lot more to go and it is yet to be seen if workers will be able to organize

at amazon and starbucks. >> as you said earlier, public support for unions has been growing, but the proportion of workers has been going down steadily for the past several decades. how do you reconcile those two things? >> it seems like a contradiction, right? labor unions are extremely popular, but no one is in them. last year, union membership fell to a historic low at 10.1%. that's only 6% of workers in the private sector. that, like you said, had been in decline since the 1980's. i think the process, like we are seeing starbucks and amazon, of organizing workers into unions is totally different from workers that were already in unions and going on strike, already very organized. those are two separate things, so what will be extremely interesting to see this if the labor movement can capitalize on this moment and bring new

workers into unions and rebuild what they have lost over the years. >> thank you very much. >> thank you so much. last >> nick: last year, the u.s. exported more than 950 million tons of plastic waste meant for recycling and a significant portion ended up in southeast asia. the region has been inundated after china blocked all but the cleanest plastic waste imports in 2018. our special correspondent looks at how one country -- thailand -- is dealing with the problem. >> plastic is everywhere in thailand. used by street vendors and fruit and vegetable markets, grocery stores, and everywhere in between.

2 million tons of plastic waste were generated every year in thailand over the past decade. this man and his wife built their family business around recycling plastic. >> we buy recycled plastic and grind it down into little particles, and then they wash it, they heat it, and then they watch it again. the end product turns into a fine particle, kind of like sugar. basically, that is used for other factories to make recycled plastic products in thailand. >> it is tedious and far from straightforward. thousands of different types of plastic different additives cannot be melted down together. the highest premium is unclean or stuff. at this east bangkok plant, a worker spends his day peeling labels off of water bottles and overall, only a small fraction

of plastic is repurposed according to the president of the thailand environment institute. >> only 25%. >> 70% to 80% of the land-based plexus -- plastic waste? >> yeah, it goes to the canal. >> that is a significant amount of plastic pollution. >> the volume of plastics has spiked since 2018 after china, a major import of -- major importer of use plastics, sent the plastic waste into neighboring countries like thailand. >> that's when the plastic waste import problems really move to thailand. >> this environmentalists s new recycling facilities have sprung up to take on the glut with

little regulation. he works with a group that documents the impact of industry pollution. >> we are also seeing a lot more communities affected by dirty recycling communities and plastic waste factories. >> they hire some people to separate the different plastics, and the scraps that have no value would be gathered into the pile and burned in an open area. >> this community health volunteers as people she served began to notice health impacts they blamed on a nearby plastic recycling plant. >> people living near where they burn the plastic waste experience irritation in the nose and an extremely foul smell. it causes a lot of disturbance and other issues. >> following complaints and protest, the plant was shut down.

>> we have found that there are smaller vicinities dealing with plastic waste, a lot of which are also imported. >> a large plant owned by a company called kenya united continues to operate. it is guarded and closed off to outsiders. locals were not only about the health effects but the environment in an area dependent on agriculture. some 20 or 30 families who live in the area have complained to environmental groups and local authorities about health consequences they have suffered since the factory came online, but when we visited, no one was willing to share their stories on camera. it could be a consequence of a defamation lawsuit that has been filed by the company against one family that spoke out. our attempts to reach the company, which is owned by international investors, were not successful.

meantime, the glut of imported plastic waste has suppressed prices. >> when the price of plastic waste goes down, there is less incentive for people to collect waste. >> informal workers like this 66-year-old whose only wages are received from the scraps she collects. >> before, my earnings were about $27. now they have shrunk to $8.40. many of my colleagues have stopped doing it. >> her meager earnings are based on how much they can carry. it is often a job of last resort for those with little education. >> i was laid off from my job as a construction worker. it is difficult to support myself and my daughters.

my daily profit, though, is close to 100 bhat. >> that's less than three dollars. the former minister of natural resources and environment. >> we have had quite a few cases where i have requested the concerned authorities to return it to its rightful owner. >> taiwan announced it will restrict plastic waste imports starting next year, but enforcement is a challenge. shipments can be mislabeled or simply smuggled past a customs system that is not fully transparent and not equipped to inspect all containers. >> is possible to import certain waste as paper. we have seen plastic waste mostly declared as paper before. >> some decision-makers don't

care. >> the decision-makers, the local politicians, they don't care? >> yeah, they don't care. >> it is estimated this river carries about 4000 tons of plastic waste into the gulf of thailand each year. the former prime minister has a message to rich nations from where much of it comes -- you own it. quickly producers of this rubbish try to produce it some where, i say please, deal with your mess. don't dump it on someone else because eventually, it's not just us that will be affected. it's you as well. when mother nature takes back her balance, mankind will be effective, so please, stop doing what you are doing. >> plastic waste exports have steadily declined over the past decade, in part because of china's van -- ban.

still, in 2021, the u.s. exported some 1.2 billion pounds. >> fred is reporting in partnership with the under told stories project in partnership with the university of minnesota. the youngest coach in ncaa division i sports this year just took home a national championship. i'm in a vase spoke -- amna spoke earlier this week with the coach that redefines what a player turned coach can achieve. >> as a player on the university of north carolina's field hockey team, erin made history. two months after graduating in 2022, she was named head coach of that team.

23 years old in her first season at the helm, the ncaa's youngest division i coach led the tar heels to yet another national title, defeating northwestern in double overtime. she joins me now. welcome to the newshour and congratulations. >> thank you. thank you. i love any excuse to brag about this program. it's great. i'm happy to be here. >> we believe you are the youngest championship-winning coach in ncaa division i history. how does that feel? >> insane. it still does not feel real. i was talking with staff today, with the girls. everyone is still in utter disbelief. it has just been a blur, a whirlwind, but a beautiful one. so proud. it has been quite the season, and there's no group that is more deserving. is it hard to put it into words. >> fair to say it was a bit of a nailbiter, came down to a

penalty shootout. how difficult is it be to cut -- a coach on the sidelines in that moment as opposed to a player on the field cap >>, my goodness, i used to never get nervous. i would just get anxious, want to get going. now you are giving control away. i can motivate and prepare them, but they are the ones doing it and we have total belief in them every single day, every single game, but the nailbiter's are definitely a lot more intense and the emotions are way higher. >> do you have to keep yourself from running out on the field at certain moments? >> yeah, and the team jokes about it. like, we know you want to put the uniform on. they know it's hard for me, but at the same time, i have my time, i have my fun, and i'm lucky i get to do it in a different way and help them, but they make it a good time. >> when you got this job, it meant you were taking over a field hockey dynasty basically,

right? you help lead the team as a player to four consecutive national titles. some say like michael jordan is the goat of basketball that you are the field hockey goat. there are these great pictures comparing the two of you side-by-side, but it also meant he would be coaching athletes you had been playing with just last season, people you had lived with. what was the adjustment like? >> it's different. the first time i talked with the team, i was like, we are not going to pretend this isn't happening, this isn't weird, this isn't unique. it is part of it, but from the start, it was naming it, and i was fortunate to have their support throughout the interview process and applying in everything, so it's not like it totally cut them off guard, but it's obviously different when your former teammate walks into the room announced as your head coach. from the beginning, we work transparent about it. we over communicated. i believe in the power of communication.

they knew my standards and expectations. they knew how i was as a player, as a captain, as a teammate, and i'm not any different now. it really was a team effort this season, and that's the only way it worked. >> i should also mention i believe you are also the only ncaa head coach to have lived through the name, image, and likeness era as a player. how has that changed how you advocate for your players, how you do recruiting? especially when you look at the opportunities women athletes get these days as compared to some of the bigger money sports that men usually play? >> definitely. in il -- nil is different in each sport. it is definitely an added layer to everything that goes into college athletics, and it is a tool that i will lean on and say

, yes, i have experience in it as a player. coaches can understand the rules, but they did not go through it. they did not juggle the time management. they did not have to go over contracts and have the conversations while turning in a paper the same night. to say that i have experience with it and can help with it, it definitely helps with recruiting and the confidence in the girls now when they enter those opportunities. that is ever-changing as well. tomorrow it will look different than today and his it's just the world we live in in college sports. >> as you know, there are a lot of college players out there who go their whole careers without ever winning a national title. you have now done it in your first season as head any advice you want to share for other coaches? >> big part of what made it happen this season was the x's

and o's and practice -- every coach is hired because they know how to do that. his it's more the trust you can instill in players while holding them to high standards and expecting a lot but also doing everything you can to create a stable, secure team atmosphere and culture. they trusted me, but i made sure they felt that confidence and self belief and bravery in themselves, too. >> head coach of the university of north carolina tar heels field hockey team, this year's national champions. congratulations. thanks again for joining us. >> thank you so much. nick: the wine you might be pairing your turkey with should not be taken for granted because climate change is threatening

wine production across the globe. geoff bennett spoke recently with a wine expert about the state of mind production and got some recommendations about what to try next. >> the ever-expanding world of wind looks different today compared to 50 years ago. while consumption has increased, the accelerating effects of climate change have forced the industry to adapt and adopt more sustainable practices. we are going to dive into that part of the business with noted writer and editor in this industry who is out with a new book called "the world in a wine glass: the insiders guide to artisanal extraordinary wines to taste now." is also the executive editor for "food and wine." as we have reported recently, global wind production has fallen to the lowest level in some 60 years. what accounts for that, and how are wine producers coping? >> there's a number of things that i count it. one is the drying up, i guess

you would say, of the demand for lower-level -- lower price level winds in europe. the younger generation does not want to drink what their parents were drinking. there has also been a lot of climate issues which have affected great production in the world, everything from fires in california to hail, heat spikes here and there, and all this makes drawing grapes for wine more difficult. people keep going and adapt to the climate shift, but it has definitely thrown some wrenches. >> there has been so much consolidation in the wine and spirits industry. reading this book, i was shocked to learn that much of the wine consumed around the world comes from just a handful of producers, right? >> yeah, it's true. a handful of very large producers make a handful of wine and a lot of what you see on

store shelves are brands from three or four or five companies. i wanted to write this book to write about wineries working sustainably or organically run by people that live at or on the vineyard and are trying to express something of a place and personal passion and a lot of wines are not that. they are made in hundred thousand gallon tanks, and it makes a very pleasant beverage product, i guess is the way you say it. that was not what i was happy with this book. i wanted to get to the kind of soul of wines that were about the land, that were an agricultural product as well as a drink. >> you refer to the book, really it is an encyclopedia in many ways. it weighs three or four pounds. the most interesting part of this book in many ways is you talk about learning to describe wine based on the stories that sort of come from the, less so

by the point system. >> yeah, the point system is a little productive in a way. i have noticed this working in food and wine. i talked to younger consumers a lot. they are just more interested in how the wine was made and what you are putting in your body when you drink it. with the point system, you don't get more points for being organic or sustainable or anything. additionally, it adds a pseudo-objective rating. it is really subjective, as all critics ratings are subjective to some degree, but you say 94 points and it sounds very official, and it is an opinion, as we know. nick: if you were kind enough to give us some of the recommendations and we have some of the bottles here. walk us through what you are recommending. >> these are all wines that come from the book that are also terrific for the holidays as well. this is from a fairly large

winery. they work organically and regenerative leak, which involves keeping cover crops on the ground so the soil stays alive, essentially, but they do it at scale. they have a couple hundred acres of vineyards, so they produce quite a lot of wine and formed very responsibly at the same time. this is classic napa valley, citrus plus a lot of melon character. this is from one of the great producers in france. they have been farming organically since 1950. the head of the family that owns it said his father said to him there are people that go to church because they believe there are people who go to church so they can say they went to church. they have been organic for a long time.

they don't promote it. it is perfect for cold weather. lindenhurst, one of the great napa valley wineries, their top cabernet costs a lot. they are in the early wave of organic farming in napa back in the 1990's, but their affordable cabernet is a beautiful bottle of cabernet, really elegant. when you talk about organic grape growing, that's not a flavor. it won't taste different or weird. it is a philosophy and approach to the land and a way of farming that does not involve a lot of agriculture. >> the book is "the world in a wine glass." thanks for your time. >> thank you so much for having me on.

>> finally tonight, finding fido by drone. off-the-shelf drones have transformed the battlefield and now are helping reunite us with man's best friend. our special correspondent saw inside. >> you have just driven for about two and a half hours in southern england to a village in the county of hampshire. we are joining people looking for a black labrador who has been missing for a few days. she's a bit nervous and took flight and disappeared. there's only about an hour to go before nightfall. we are following xena's owner after the young dog was rejected as a gun dog because she was easily spooked. >> unfortunately, someone came around to visit and they had a very high-pitched voice, very
