a massive resource deal with washington. you get sick of it, you just get sick of it. and i've had it plus those live and on prepares to host to thousands of foreign guests for the official funeral of has done this rolla. as the remains defiant, this fight luster's telling of a long time later by the idea the they are watching archie international. i'm rachel ruble live in moscow. we'll begin with breaking news from gaza. wareham aust has released 5 out of 6 is really hostages in the latest, a swap of the showcase fire. the final captive is expected to be handed over soon in return. hundreds of palestinians are to be set free from is rarely jails. are the middle east bureau chief maria for national brings us more on the ongoing

exchange on both sides and israel. and here, of course, in the west bank and ramallah, families and friends hold their breath anxiously waiting to embrace their loved ones and ordinary citizens also waiting hosting for a smooth return at hostages. squaring tel aviv crowns have been gathering since early morning watching the release of john screams celebrating the freed hostages post. the end of being sold very 2 of course with those students of cvt and across the west bank, including here in room. * of mass celebrations are also expected and to prevent it, the idea has deployed additional forces all across the territories. in the past few hours really forces have broken off public gatherings in anticipation of potential and grass. but if you guys, exchangers are any indication, we can say the, it's one stop people from coming together to celebrate, but also to leave for the over 48000 lives. lost in the gas one after more than

$500.00 days, inc, if typically is really, really a coin on that event, it on that of samples and tons showing the asset to return home and also expected to be released all of them in the school and the strawman said who have been held in gallagher for over a decade for 16 months as we've covered before we followed the story of on that event, kansas grandmother f. holocaust survivor told us that these months of waiting have been harder than anything she has every deal with. we also, we painted on min b soon and is really with, as you will see in all regions who due to a mental disorder mistakenly crossed in 202013 and was never seen again. and to him asked what is the video of him last year proving he was in live for the 1st on one of these locations is rough farm, near the diction, once a densely populated area that has been seen of intense fighting, and it's really been margins for months, the 2nd location, isn't this a rock, a refugee camping central gathaway?

the idea of has ever conducted ron maneuvers tearing home to hostages. it was known that most of them could be held there. it was there last summer that the rescue operation by these re army took place. that's freeform is really captives including one with russian citizenship when drake has loved the slightest exchange. indeed comes on 3 intentions on says is you remember for the 1st time since the seas far began, israel received the remains of hostages. we did not survive the moving tools, devastated and then took an even darker turn. and when they were, the bodies of 2 young children, tragic symbols will do for over 7 attacks of the forensic examinations. this will excuse her mazda, of nurturing them with bare hands, a direct contradiction to her master's earlier claims, but they were killed by, it's really a strides from us whole. so it was supposed to return the body of the mother, but israel announced the remains they received belonged to an unknown guys in woman

. the response was to yours and swift from it. as for benjamin can you, i hope use time. also violating the due and vowed it would pay the highest price and loss has no clue to all the possibility of a mistake promise and investigation. while we are forming its commitments to the agreement and for now we can seize, radiate from which these have chosen not to disrupt the exchange. and this is why we, we've seen, had the swamp now taking place. as in previous exchange is the freed hostages. a 1st handed over to the international red cross, then to the idea of which take them to is really territory. it's very they will be reunited with their families and ongoing medical evaluations. and return is really set to relieve a 102 palestinian prisoners on such a day. well then half were detained after october 7 and will be sent back to gaza where they're coming from. originally, 200 women and miners from the gather sweep released in exchange for the bodies on

top of that is the this also includes 51 prisoners serving lives, sentences 59 with long prison terms, 100 in april. then we'll be deported to egypt as israel doesn't allow them to be released to the west bank sites in security concerns with some also expected to be transferred to other countries. among the most high profile names cali speaking and names is made by who t, one of the longest serving probably steven prisoners, 1st convict for the 1978 for murdering and is a bus driver. he was released during 2011 exchange deal, but later we arrested violates in his release conditions, also on the lease ballade. a move on them sentenced to 3 live terms for a deadly 2015 attack in jerusalem. and holly exhibiting a book, i mean, convicted of the 2019 murder open is really american citizen. and the release of these present or is high profile as is ro calls them with blood on their hands as

well when, if you pensions and these rel, security concerns are growing, of course. but was deli, give exchange on folding all eyes, in fact are what happens next. the 1st phase of the we went this set to ends next weekend and certainly to move towards a ready, significantly delayed have review. finally, israel is demanding the immediate release of the 22 remaining leaving hostages, and the public pressure is wrong with the u. s. has said to we've deadline for a deal, but it's real, repeatedly warns it is ready to review military operations. if a mazda is not to comply, so this phase 4 and this piece is very fragile. well, this agreement lay the groundwork for more hostages releases, and perhaps even and then so the war will receive renewed hostilities take center stage. so early to say of course for now turning to the west and now the us has reportedly threatened to ukraine with to shutting off access to eli must star

link satellite network unless key of signs of proposed resource extraction deal. donald trump has said he's literally sick of a lot of years. zalinski is attempts to back out of the lucrative agreement according to the us president cab. oh is america big time? so we're gonna either sign a deal or is going to be a lot of problems with them. so we're going to sign a deal to get security because we have to do that. we're spending our treasure. i've been watching him negotiate with no card, says no cards add, you get sick of it, you just get sick of it and i've had it. and he then made a deal with us for rivers and things man who knows what river is worth. so, you know, but at least it's something and who knows what else, who is, who knows? they even have it. but we made a deal with the river. it's and secretary of treasury,

a very good guy actually went there and they couldn't even come close to get a good deal done. and frankly, i wish he didn't go to the waste all of his time like that. but they couldn't get close. they met. right, and then when he wanted to get as close as he was unable to meet them again. but the so, so just don't wasted trip a dangerous trip to i didn't like it that he was doing it because you know, he's a good man. i didn't want him to be put himself under danger because that a feeling something like that would happen. but it looks like washington is late to the party since the london got there. first. the british government apparently managed to secure exclusive rights to ukraine's resources just days before donald trump took office our cheese marina coast. right. but things deeper into the story . it's clear that the u. k. has become very passionate about the ukrainian calls. all of a sudden, especially the last couple of months, even as

a piece deal seems within reach the is the term and for you claim to keep going by using lies, brain washing floods and even tiers of support from the european union. here's a small reminder. you know that the united kingdom continues to be your full most partner. we continue to work alongside you. we continue to support you to the max. and as you fight the surrender war for anything to work, it has to have your p as in ukraine is part of it because the frame ends in europeans are the ones to meet so, so in some of the deals here in europe. so without this, the any d wouldn't just work very grateful to all of those european politicians that spoke out and reaffirmed the values and principles said they are defending. no one did this veterans and presidency senate, so lensky. let me conclude. and this becomes difficult.

the, the last couple weeks of being in tens and all this was proceeded by another strange moments felt weird landmark agreements between london and kids. talking about on breakable bonds, billions of a. then lots of promises museum for him. you know, mean he's the tiny because there was a visit to the british prime minister, the signing of the 100 year partnership agreement. maybe this is a fundamentally new format of relation. some of the closest relations are now between ukraine and britain and all of these, there is also a secure secret part of the agreement kristy, everything that really adds to our resilience, you know, somebody opportunity to develop some had more energy cooperation as the agreement states, right? here it also some of so u k, as a preferred partner for ukraine's energy sector critical minerals strategy and

green steel production. and there's more now look at this for supporting developments over ukranian critical mental roll strategy, and necessary regulatory structures required to support the maximize ation of benefits from ukraine's natural resources. well, isn't that nice and potentially lucrative whether you take after all, ukraine has one of the largest mineral deposits of any do a p and country, which would explain the southern friendliness and partnership. maybe perhaps why the landmark agreements was signed before tom had a chance to get there literally 4 days before his in all duration. and now i think it was once in or else we're going to rain. very valuable, rare are we was while we pull it up to go in terms of the guarantee we want to guarantee one, we're handing a money hand over fist. we're giving them equipment. so we're looking to do

a deal with your brain where they're going to secure what we're giving them with a rare are as and other things. here's the thing. we don't get our money back and we tell them that the deal is we do something similar or less us treasury secretary scott best sense even travel crated with an early valentine's day presence in the form of a proposal, but it wasn't very well received. here's how it all went down to scott. this is actually what's there. and there were a were sleeping, and unavailable to meet and meet traveling many hours on the train, which is today. we're talking about the secretariat. he wants to get a document signed. and when he came back and they were just,

i respect the united states and that's why i said that this document is not ready. and i said there is no word on security guarantees. we agreed that there could be something done about it, but no one knows anything. and if it isn't clear, i said, let's write the percentages. i am defending ukraine. i can't sell our state. you will write some guarantees and we will write some interest in the memorandum i, i was only told 50. i said, okay, no, i'm just a decision maker and i'm not working on the details of this document. i think president trump is very upset, present zelinski, and i and some case, and rightfully so. look. number one, joe biden had frustrations was the landscape. people shouldn't forget that there are newspaper articles out there about how he cursed adam and a phone call because of lensky instead of saying, thank you for all your help is immediately out there messaging what we're not doing or what he's not getting. i think the 2nd things, frankly, i was personally very upset because we had a conversation with president zelinski,

the vice president and i, the 23 of us. and we discussed this issue about the mineral rights, so we explained to them. but we want to be in joint venture with you, not because we're trying to steal from your country, but because we think that's actually a security guarantee where your partner and an important economic endeavor, we get to get paid back some of the money, the tax payers are given close to $200000000000.00 and it also, and now we have a vested interest in the security of ukraine and he said, sure, we want to do this deal. it makes all the sense in the world. the only thing is i need to run it through my legislative process. well, that's the thing is upright scope there. first and elza lensky is in a bit of a pickle she has from calling him a dix. 8 or without elections, has ruined his country. and perhaps sold it off after all, but so those who are all unable to provide any security guard sees, even if they tried spots they have complements in the boat loads. the prime minister expressed his support for president zalinski as ukraine's democratically

elected leader. and said that it was perfectly reasonable to suspend the elections during more time as the u. k. did during world war 2. this was a man still east country. that is country and still does. he was the lexington. he's the like to lead to ukraine. and he's done what winston churchill take in britain, and 2nd will. and boris, jonathan, the man who just have to button and make sure the conflict kept going. 3 years ago, what a deal was on the table when we europeans, going to stop being scandalized about donald trump and stopped helping him to end this war. that's as a car in for it as prime minister is even willing to send his own troops unprepared . consider committing purchased forces on the ground, alongside office, if there is a loss to increase the agreement. but the must be a us back stop. because a us security guarantee is the only way to effectively to,

to russia from attack can you create a good? but as you can see, even here, the minutes that us involvement isn't necessary, which won't happen if they don't get their minerals. so now the question remains, are the minerals there for the taking or have they already been sold? so ukraine's new best friend, which could become lensky, is final mistake. my colleague union o'neill discuss the latest do kind drama with us conservative commentator joe open. for remember, they've been walking away from the table to get to a peace deal for several years. it's not that there wasn't an appetite on your side or on russian side to come to some sort of agreement. and it's not as said vladimir put and wanted to get involved in this, in this war to begin with, right? this was, this was an offensive that was set out very strategically in order to take care of, of things inside of ukraine. that frankly, you created it by any other terms that you can create. a new president and the

people in ukraine would have been charged with warcraft. so instead, what they've done is projected what they have done to their own people and, and frankly, the appetite is not there because more is very profitable for really bad people. and piece is not something that bad people see cuz as a resolution, so i think you're gonna see some, some shift, things happen as ship things happen. as people start seeing what the benefits are having a peaceful society or a peaceful world. and these people, even in, in europe who have been disabled rattlers that are continuing down those st. pass it by them. was this, the people in those countries don't have any appetite for their either. it's lensky saying that he in the u. k. sign that special agreement at 100 years into the future, etc. but it's the same minerals that donald trump is asking at for an exchange for, for 8. it leaves the question joe can can't really give all its boxers what they want. i think it comes down to who's entitled to the things that,

that they want and a lot can be said about the u. k and the european union, but they've never put their money where their mouth was. and i don't agree with the war, and i don't agree with what the us did of crating this proxy war with russia. i think it was a mistake. and i think it hurt relations that frank, we're going to take a long time to deal. but at the same time, we still put up $2300000000000.00 to the, to easily 50 or, or $75000000.00 that came out of the out of europe is i don't believe that they have a stake as high as united states, nor do i believe that they can re peaceful there's a new crane that's that, that ukraine seats. i also believe that with the us there it's, it's a disadvantage to the european union because i don't believe the trump and or the incoming administrations of a were able to get the safe and secure election to the united states. will have an appetite for waste and nobody in the united states wants to be at war with russia. and frankly, there's much more to be gained by having a partnership with russia than there ever would be. and having

a partnership with the country like ukraine. so it says there's no, there's no benefit for i think the people of ukraine to have you come in to be able to suck all the rare or metals. but i do believe that there is a benefit to the united states and in a lot of different ways because with the right leadership in the united states, i think the partnership between russia and the united states could be very, very powerful. although then later my assigned to is the target of demonstrations demanding she resign and put an end to censorship. thousands of protesters have gathered in front of the pro western president's office is in the capital cation. now, a recent ban of sputnik mendoza has sparked the latest discontent with critics saying the move violates the principles of free speech. the opposition socialist party organized the valley and his colleagues from parliamentary and early presidential elections to be held simultaneously this year. 2

now, 211 on where people from 79 countries are arriving to attend sundays. funeral of iconic has been a leader has on those rolla he was assassinated in bay route by israel in september . and his body has since been held at an undisclosed location. but now that all the preparations for the official ceremony had been made, archie correspondence, james sweeney filed with this report from the 11 east capital they lose the past. so one of the biggest events and evidence recent history, the funeral of slain has the latest side house on us are all the local was found out food suite symbol to his picture displayed across the city. hundreds of thousands of are expected to attend with guests from the 80 countries of the share . this funeral is an honor of those who shed their holy blood a day that embodies the greatness of our country. this is a day of unity, not a day of separation. we will continue this path with determination, awareness and renewed vigor. we hold back tears in our eyes,

working hard to achieve the goals set in us by the 2 martyrs. this is the day of collaboration of the oppressed, the leader of the oppressed, in the struggle against the oppressors. this is a day dedicated to the murder of humanity, in the struggle against imperialism, phone and impoverished share community 3 kilometers from the agency of tire. that's a lot of roads to become one of the most important tickets in the region. revealed by his supporters, whose image it owns billboards and buildings across the country. for many, he was and remains a symbol of resistance day as well. and evidence of our database in 2006, i'm not necessarily his leadership has, but i was able to defeat one of the most powerful ministry forces on the planet cementing his reputation in the region of some domestic. israel's original goal was the subjugation of the resistance and its surrender, stopping the resistance and knocking it out of this battle and just have to the lebanese front will not stop until the aggression against the cause of stops. i say

clearly, no matter what sacrifices have been made, no matter what the consequences, the resistance in lebanon continues to support and assist the people of gauze. the people of the west bank of the oppressed, in this holy land. that is our 1st response, preventing these railings from achieving that goal in july. when that sort of spoke, never didn't seem to grind to a halt, people gathering around television sex, listening carefully to every word for the support. his anatomy is what he said, method. it much into the mechanics. the news, the street please. it's also mounted to the lebanese government onto world leaders . and i thought it was killed here in the southern suburbs in september 2024 by us supplied bunker, busting palm. he died among his people who said that his multitude was the ultimate sacrifice for the people of god, and also the people of lebanon. some of the house on those were law was not just the general secretary for us. he has always been a spiritual father. the idea of resistance is embodied in him as

a man who had become a father to all of us. a funeral on sunday is not a farewell to an ordinary person, but a confirmation that the idea of resistance will live forever. natural law lives in our hearts, and this will be reflected in the number of people who will follow his last path. if he's not just a person, he is a terminal because his idea is embodied in resistance and this idea will never disappear, of just not. our participation on sunday confirms that despite all the destruction and loss of natural law, we still support the resistance. we will not give it up, no matter the price is a resistance, is an idea, and an idea does not dying only defeat or is taking place. 5 months off to his desk, during that time is well remained determined to destroy his body, but it was safely called it on sunday side house on the final resting place. not far from here. he will live on forever in the pre existing. so you need for all the

babies. 0, one far away nation that's been consistently back in palestine is indonesia. and that's where our students from the middle east are given a chance to pursue their studies in an atmosphere of peace. r t correspondent rebec enough to pull who has the story to a commitment to education as a form of solidarity. this has been in an issue, us approach to supporting palestine. ever since president pablo so, bianca served as minister of defense. he initiated a scholarship program that allows palestinian students to study at the end of myisha defense university. now under his presidency, this program continues strengthening and initials, role in providing educational opportunities for those affected by conflict. the scholarship program which began in 2023 open stores of opportunity for $22.00 palestinian students each year to pursue fully funded undergraduate studies. in

various subjects. the most popular fields are medicine, pharmacy, and engineering. currently 40 for palestine and students are studying under this program, which is a smarter about diplomacy as it is about education. for me that what is happening in palestine is a special concern to the indonesian government. the indonesian government has historically been very consistent with indonesia support for the palestinian cause . so the existence of the defense university is seen by the president as one of the potential ways that we can help the palestinian people, especially to prepare for the future of palestine in terms of human resources, united, dcc, nasa, i, jeremy, a student from he bron westbank is one of the fortunate recipients of these full scholarships. after completing the 10 months indonesian language class, he is not only confident in his indonesian language skills, but excited to pursue his dream of becoming

a doctor. any cheap the cheapest i a this is my dream from childhood. yes. to help people, especially my mother. she has asthma. i want to be a doctor, a long specialist, and i think already the same dream lingers inside jihad mohammed, another student from huron, who has chosen to study pharmacy for the next 5 years. now, when i come back to palestine, i want to help my country as it is facing will right now. there are a lot of people who need help. the acknowledge that the language barrier is their greatest challenge. however, their classmates and lectures have created a supportive learning environment and then do this. my friends and lecture is explained everything in a formal language and at a slower pace if that are points that i don't understand. i will have someone to explain it to me. the school transfers the same spirit of the board, helping make the transition to the tranquil academy setting

a profound experience for the students. so i get, i do the, the lectures also acknowledge the challenges that students who are not 100 percent fluent, yet an indonesian are facing. so they need special attention a certain way of teaching, talking slower, i think so that the explanation can be clear. but i think there are not many obstacles. the teachers can understand the students and they know what they have to do to overcome these issues. the students are grateful for the opportunities to brochure their dreams. i'm at the situation by cold. their biggest supporters remain, their families focused by the people they telling me to focus on my dreams and my goal to become a doctor. they say don't worry, don't hesitate. try to build your career in indonesia, especially when there are challenges at home. yeah. kind of, they are proud of me. so i am very happy to be under course where the students are immersing themselves in indonesian culture. learning by highlighting neisha,

the country's official language and travelling throughout the country. they view their time in the nation, not only as an opportunity for academy growth, but also as a way to strength and connections between the 2 nations. with the continuation of this program under president problem was leadership. indonesia reinforces its commitment to supporting palestine. and as for many of the students, education is a beacon of hope, a tool that could shape a brighter future for palestine as they are looking forward to go back home and build their homeland. these sentiments are echoed by the palestinian ambassador to indonesia who has been instrumental in supporting the students integration into innovation academy. clive, i can say that really thought you cation cooperation have spent the past on. this is thought to jake bottom, not ship between both contests and the future. and the defense sucks,

although also it allows for the exchange of knowledge on this goods that improve what a cnn defense capacity. especially among combine ontario slide these, keeping the forces us cuz etc. and so you mentioned that in venetia is ready for that. a conflict resolution. as the students continue their journey, very mean mindful of the larger purpose behind their education for them. every lecture, every discussion and every new lesson learned, brings them one step closer to a stronger palestine. given as we are returning to palestine, we'll be working now with the palestinian government. i want to return and open the pharmacy to lift the off to graduating from college in indonesia. i.
