the civilians in gaza. but you had 19 trips by the cia director involving multiple countries just on this subject, trips to the region and elsewhere in the world where he was meeting with the negotiators. you had 13 missions by the secretary of state going to 7 or 8 countries. on each of those trips i was on many of them. you also had brett mcgurk, the chief negotiator in doha tonight, and he was the one who spent weeks and weeks on this. so the effort was huge. but what, by everyone's acknowledgment in the administration, starting on december 2nd when donald trump went on truth social and said to hamas, get this done and hamas released the hostages, get a cease fire deal, or quote, there will be hell to pay in the middle east. that started a lot of pressure coming principally on israel, on netanyahu to get his right wing cabinet ministers in line and to go for the deal that thousands and thousands of people were protesting in favor of in the streets of tel aviv. so that pressure and then steve witkoff got

israel faces circumstances in gaza. the civilian population trapped there with hamas hiding in and under homes, hospitals, schools and mosques. indeed, hamas cynically weaponized the suffering. in a message of hamas' military leader at the time, sinwar called the death of palestinian civilians, and i quote, necessary sacrifices and said, the more palestinians that were killed, the more hamas would benefit. these profound challenges notwithstanding, israel's efforts have fallen far short of meeting the colossal scale in gaza. we've said publicly and privately there are steps israel could take to transform the humanitarian situation in gaza and ensure critical aid reaches all palestinians in need. those include restarting full commercial goods and undertaking pauses in military operations as it did during the successful polio vaccination campaign and securing civic order with the flow of aid to storage and distribution sites. and suffering civilians in gaza is a tragedy in its own right and isolated israel internationally

in all areas of gaza. the surge in humanitarian assistance in gaza will begin. and the innocent people can have a greater access to these vital supplies. during the next six weeks israel will negotiate the necessary arrangements to get phase two, which is a permanent end of the war. say that again, permanent end of the war. there are a number of details to negotiate to move from phase one to phase two. but the plan says if negotiations take longer than six weeks, the cease-fire will continue as long as the negotiations continue. i have spoken to mater of cue wait and the -- of kuwait and the president of egypt and we have pledged to make sure the negotiation also keep moving forward for as long as it takes. then when phase two begins, there will be an exchange for release of the remaining hostage, including male soldiers and all remaining israeli forces will be withdrawn from gaza. and the temporary cease-fire will become permanent. and finally, phase three, any final remains of hostages who have been killed will be returned to their families. a major reconstruc

no one really has an— gaza, who does? no one really has an answerto gaza, who does? has an answer to that yet. in terms of those sticking points, the identity of those people who might be released and negotiations also over how they could police people in gaza returning to the north who have been displaced. talk us through some of the sticking points we understand to be obstructing things at the 11th hour.- things at the 11th hour. third talks about _ things at the 11th hour. third talks about how— things at the 11th hour. third talks about how they - things at the 11th hour. third talks about how they will. things at the 11th hour. third talks about how they will check those _ talks about how they will check those people returning to the north — those people returning to the north from the south, to their homes — north from the south, to their homes in _ north from the south, to their homes in the north. israel is saying — homes in the north. israel is saying those people need to be vetted — saying those people need to be vetted and checked to see they are hot— vett

in terms of who will actually govern gaza, that is something that no proposal, neitherthis gaza, thateriously with there are many plans floating around. there are huge differences between the way that us sees god as his future, the way that israel sees gaza's future and palestinians. now the us and palestinians. now the us and palestinians are in agreement they want to see a restatement of the pa without hamas. israel's western avenue lies in israel's western avenue lies in israel itself is made clear that hamas has no future in theirs. that dealing with hamas on any level after this is an absolute nonstarter. the difference here is the fact that israel is absolutely adamant of not allowing for any serious administrative entity in the immediate term that can potentially threaten security. for israel the best we could possibly hope for, this is something that even aid organizations have reluctantly come to terms with is some sort of aid economy, if you like whereby gaza will be entirely dependent on aid. we will effectively see a tent city in ruins for them and law in order, if we coul

so huge questions going forward over the future of gaza.will be back in a moment or two, but i want to bring in our gaza correspondent, who is in istanbul monitoring events. he is talking to all his contacts. bring me up—to—date with what you are hearing about what hamas have said in the last little while. there was some confusion about the announcement and there still is, because we don't know exactly when the announcement will be made, but the head of the hamas delegation hasjust told the bbc they have handed over the final approval for the deal, which will include hamas releasing 33 israeli hostages, including women, children and female soldiers at the first stage, and israel will release about 1500 palestinian detainees in israeli prisons. most of them were detained after the 7th of october from gaza and there are about 500 were detained before, including about 250 people who are serving 15 or more years in prison. most important in this dealfor the 2.3 million people, especially deal for the 2.3 million people, especially those who par

nothing like what they've suffered in gaza. nothing like what they've suffered in gaza. but one of the things we learned is it can always get worse and it may get worse. it will probably continue. but there is a trajectory, which is a trajectory of hope. and i think we have to keep that in mind. that's the first thing i want to say. the second thing i want to say is that what we've been listening to tonight in the way of poetry and narrative and stories and literature and acting and art and theater and movies is more important than what i do as a historian or what journalists do or, what academics do. i mean, we've done our part. we've helped to change the narrative. but what people like arafat, people like mazen, what people the folks that i hope you'll their books and spread them are doing is much more fundamental. it gets the humanity of the palestinians. it gets the narrative of the palestinian through in a way nothing i write nothing. edward wrote nothing any us wrote can do. we played our part. i'm playing my part. eliot. how edward played his part became. eliot hu

on the right side they are celebrating in gaza. let's listen to gaza for a moment. [no audio] >> i was told we would have the sound of that. let me know, to the team when we do. ambassador friedman, what are they celebrating? >> i mean, this is probably being sold to them as some sort of a victory, and look, it's hard for israelis to watch the hamas supporters celebrating. but that celebration is going to be short-lived. i mean, right now, this is about getting the hostages back and israel is paying a high price to get them back. but israel is not agreeing to end the war. hamas has no future. and i'm hoping -- i'm skeptical. but i'm hoping that may be some of them are celebrating the possibility that hamas is coming to an end. that with this, you know, hamas loses its leverage, and someone can come in and rule the gaza strip which is less malign. but i'm not a very good psychologist into the minds of these people. >> harris: i was hoping to get some audio, and now we have more light on the situation. they are on each other's shoulders and looking jubilant. as you sa

now they're not out of gaza. this deal isn't necessarily one that guarantees israel will be out of gaza. but i do think one of the things that qatar was saying to hamas was, you're insisting on ending the war and israel getting out once you have this pause, pretty hard to believe that it would trump in as president that israel is going to resume the fighting. now, of course, if hamas goes ahead and doesn't fulfill its part of the deal, that will happen. but if they do fulfill their part of the deal, it's pretty hard to see this resuming the war resuming, and then that will open the way towards doing the normalization deal between saudi arabia and israel. so we're we're looking at a region that typically we assume everything goes wrong. and it may yet i have plenty of experience being on the brink of all sorts of breakthroughs when the middle east, as it is, rears its head. but right now, i would say this is as promising a moment as we've seen in a very long time. >> with all of those caveats, which we both know f

tens of thousands of people killede in gaza.early the entire population has lost 11 near the entire population is enduring hunger. nearly the entire population some 2 millionul people has been displaced, many multiple times. most have no home to go to there so many homes in gaza have been damaged oree destroyed. gaza's most dangerous places in the world to be a child, to be a civilian, to be a journalist. and, as always happens in congress the more people suffer, the less they feel empathy for the suffering of those on thehe other side. throughout the arab muslim world's large majorities large d october 7 did not happen or if it did that it was legitimate attack on israel's military. in israel there's almost no reporting on the conditions in gaza and what people there endure every day. this scum dehumanization is one of the greatest tragedies of the conflict. gaza. we should share sorrow and it makes a sense of common humanity. and without it we lose co-existence. for the united states, a country with unique global engagements a

it devastated gaza, and most of the people of gaza were displaced.ities, entire cities in gaza have been flattened. i've been inside on visits with the israeli military, and i haven't seen that level of devastation anywhere in the world. there are places that it truly looks like a moonscape, and the people who have been forced down into southern gaza, and there are 2.2 million people, are going to now start heading back to the north, which was the area of gaza that was the most damaged, and realize that their homes, their neighbors homes, everything they knew is gone and has been reduced to rubble. for israel, this has been a tremendously traumatic experience. it has been divisive. it has seen fights between the left wing and the right wing, fights between hostage families and the government hostage families. accusing prime minister netanyahu of deliberately trying to use this incident to score political points to favor, to curry favor with the right wing. this has been a traumatic experience for israel, and it is traumatic right now you're seeing li

calm to go back to gaza and will never give up gaza. thank you any questions? yes. the first question from sky news prime minister yalda hakim from sky news. >> congratulations. >> this is a huge moment. you, as you say, have been working on this deal for for many months. and the question is why now? why this moment? and was it pressure from the incoming trump administration that got it over the line? thank you. >> well, thank you very much for this question. actually, we've been raising the question of the right moment for the entire period since the collapse of of the first phase. uh, but we have seen a momentum that started to build in the last month, and we kept pushing for that, working together very closely with our partners. and i can say that what we have seen from the u.s. in the past few days, seeing a collaboration transcending both administration, was a clear demonstration for the commitment of the u.s. to reach to that deal. and i really would like to thank, uh, both the envoys who are here with us in the last couple of days. and they played a vital rol

alleviate the suffering of the gaza strip.ce october 8, we in the state of the tar say no effort with the constant -- under the constant watchful eye. we worked day and night to reach this moment and since our remediation efforts succeed up last november to guarantee release of 109 hostages in return for a number of palestinian prisoners. we have been working continuously in order to prevent bloodshed and put an end to the war machine for restore hope for our region and a prosperous future that will allow our people to dream of a better future for 411 days, meetings, context with our partners and both sides of the conflict until we reach this long-awaited moment today. however, today begins a responsibility for both sides will be supported by international community and the mediators in order to achieve complete success. at this is what we will be focusing on in the coming days d weeks. i would like to express thanks to all of our partners in the region and internationally for their support to our efforts all the way until we

and israel allowing 1000000 pump seen is back to the northern gaza strip. so would you want to be here to see the is mohammed elementary. he's a media studies professor of the doha institute for graduate studies to look at everything we know so far. but firstly mohammed, this is close to a deal as we have ever come before, 5810. so they've been to know whether it will actually bear fruit. can you explain the, what's different this time? i mean, what for you is the biggest signal of progress and possible success? well, 1st of all, i, i agree with you that this is the closest we've been. i think everyone now is a fairly optimistic actually that we're going to get across the official finish line. and i think the, the main difference here is the new variable that has entered the equation. that is a donald trump for the donald trump presidency. and far did for me to, to give a credit to donald trump. i've spent the better part of 9 years critiquing his policy programs and political discourse. but um, she is clearly, uh, the one driving uh, driving this cease fir

tens of thousands of rtpeople killed in gaza. the entire publishing has lost his enduring hunger nearly the entire population some 2 million people have been displaced many multiple times. most have no home to go to. there are so many homes in gaza that have been damaged or destroyed. it's one of the most dangerous places in the world. to be a civilian. and as always happens in conflicts, the more people suffer, the less they feel empathy for the suffering of those on the other side. large majorities believe that october 7 didn't happen or if it did, that it was a legitimate attack on atisrael's military. in israel there is on the snow recording and what people and/or everyday. this dehumanization is one of the greatest tragedies also salvaged moments of loss of despair and a sense of ÃÃ without it we lose one of the most crucial foundations of reconciliation and eventually united states the country was unique global engagement responsibilities conflict is put personnel and facilities and assets at greater risk and strengthened o

, head towards the borders of gaza, but that they would not leave the gaza strip entirely. and the hope here is that during this first phase of the deal, negotiations will continue in doha, qatar, where this first phase has been agreed to try to get from phase one to phase two. phase two would see a complete end to the war, the full withdrawal of israeli troops and in return, the exchange of all israeli hostages still being held in gaza. we have seen these cease fire talks come close and collapse before. we have seen the one cease fire that was agreed back in november 2023. it lasted just one week before it fell apart. some 105 hostages came out of gaza. there were seven brief days of respite for palestinian civilians. and then the shooting started again. and since then, those marathon negotiations have continued. but this is the first time that a cease fire deal has been agreed. chris, amid this moment of hope, it is worth just reflecting that the deal that appears to have emerged out of qatar today is not significantly different from the outline that president biden laid

on day 16 of the gaza strip.t phase, they would begin to negotiate the second phase of the deal, which would involve the release of more hostages, prisoners and more discussions over the shape of a post—war gaza. how would it be rebuilt and who would govern it? a couple of additional lines i want to bring viewers. axial is our reporting a us official also saying a gaza ceasefire deal has been reached, so bit by bit, strands of information all seems to be heading in the same direction. let me bring you up—to—date with a press release that's come from the hostages and missing families forum headquarters. we saw pictures a bit earlier in the afternoon of those families in hostage square in tel aviv, and let me take you through what they have said. they say, in they have said. they say, in the light of reports about an imminent agreement, we welcome and deeply appreciate the return of every hostage, each one representing hope and relief not only for their immediate family but for our entire community. we urgently pul

the largest city in southern gaza. younis and many people there have been displaced from northern gaza so under the ceasefire deal hundreds of thousands of people could potentially go back to the north of gaza but israel wants him to be screened and vetted before they make that journey to the north. let's unpack some of this withjon donnison who is here in jerusalem. how close do we think we are to a deal this time? ~ . , . time? we are still waiting. almost there _ time? we are still waiting. almost there but - time? we are still waiting. almost there but not - time? we are still waiting. | almost there but not quite. mediators are saying the broad principles of the deal have been — principles of the deal have been agreed but they are working on what they call technical issues. in particular i think— technical issues. in particular i think some of the coordination of how hostages and prisoners might be exchanged and also some of the wording — exchanged and also some of the wording over how israel withdraws from gaza.

and thousands of pregnant women in gaza. what is happening and i know it to be happening, is there inhaling their eating? they are living in a place of highly toxic metal content. and these metals end up in her bloodstream and in her features, and it's impacting fetus. so it is critical for us to stop this genocide. and again, it's going to have an impact on generations to come just to give people a context on birth defects and the numbers of birth defects. sorry, so sorry to interrupt, as just as the numbers of the rest, the effects that you have in your study are quite in 1995. the 11370 birds. now 2003 that rises up to $23.00 per 1000. read verse, so that is enormous increase and on that particular point of the metals, i just want to share the testimony of dr. muhammed to hear who volunteered in gaza and then get your reaction. take a look. the last case we just stand was a young man who was the subject of an explosive injury. i had penetrating the trauma to his chest and then the paralyzed right on the ice suspected that

number one, as you said, in gaza, the questionsj as you said, in gaza, the questions about who is goings a question that is still unresolved since the beginning of the war. that is a question for palestinian political regional leaders to some degree. and the israeli government, netanyahu after the hamas 0ctober seven attack on israel which was seen as an intelligence and security failure in israel, he was under a lot of scrutiny and under a lot of political pressure at that time for allowing that attack to happen and then the response, in which there has been more than a year of war, and yesterday you had the secretary of state antony blinken saying that hamas has been able to recruit more members and rebuild itself, even during that time, during this immense israeli bombardment in gaza. and alongside that, despite of that get to some degree, netanyahu has strengthened his position in israel, he has managed to set up his cabinet, reshuffle in a way that will survive this deal in spite of threats from the right—wing members of his cabinet to leave the government if a deal is signed. and

just base those opposed, no situation inside gaza. i'm sure there are things they have looked at, that they have planned, they need to adapt once they're able to move around more freely inside of gaza. >> can you say what's agreed? >> i can't get into that. >> what about what you'd like to see in terms of security arrangements? >> we want to see that humanitarian workers are protected. that they can go about their jobs, free from harm. free from violence. that they are not put in harm's way either by members of hamas who will still be inside gaza and who still of course have access to weapons inside gaza, or by gangs and looting that we have seen be an impediment to delivery of assistance over the past few months. but specifics of that, are conversations we're having directly with humanitarian groups. >> it's been an extraordinary year, four years, and i think been pretty full. congratulations. i wanted to ask this again. we've been asking about the incidents of israel's activities in gaza that have been investigated. are you confiden

i want to go back to honey offload and data obama in central gaza. you spoke to us just a few minutes ago, honey, when the news began to populate out about this deal about the reaction of the people there to the news. just tell us again, this is dealers are just joining us. what people have been saying and how they've been reacting to this news that they see spar deals in guys according to media reports, doesn't seem to have integrated with where you know rob for the past months. people who used to come at our book gusting point and ask this one. and only one question about when is the ceasefire going to happen when the war is going to in that for the 1st time, i can see genuine happiness in the eyes of all the people as standing around us here. as the news a started to go by, right, and people reading more about the, the agreement between our mazda and his read on a ceasefire agreement that the, the, the approval that the, with the, of the, the deal has, has been as received from the uh, the overhead or then the stakeholders and this whole daunting

even i, me, myself, i born and grew up in gaza. all my family are in gaza now.aza and people. i lost people and friends and members of family. >> we lost houses. but it's like the others. >> it's been. it's not here to complain in a in a personal level. but what surprised me how much the people fight for life in the middle of death, how much people was ready to risk their own life just to participate in telling a story. >> it's mean to move small hard disk from one place to another place, and you know you can be killed in the street because no safe place in gaza. >> and they did that. even our material. we were really focusing in the personal story, our material, what was in these hard disk is people, was paintings, was dancing, was making stand up comedy. so, okay, many people was talking about the suffering because we describe also that we have no food, no water, no medicines. we describe all this, but through human stories, it was truly people who want to live. so i was surprised. how much was these people defending life, defending love, defending future? >>

the targeting of every facets of life in gaza. the bliss ration not just of palestinians themselves, but their institutions, religious, cultural, educational ones, of the memory of their ability to have a future in the gaza strip. there is ample evidence of all of this being filmed on uploaded by is ready soldiers and gaza. but many international jar, and this doesn't really seem very interested the, [000:00:00;00] the, there has been a remarkable number of videos posted by is really soldiers on social media depicting themselves, pillaging property, mocking the death and destruction that they are causing. and most egregious lea, a torturing humiliating and mocking to turn palestinian prisoners local, pre, pre, the images of mass out as of torture, of palestinians of numbering their bodies, which is that i'm in a sense of images. one of us have seen from 110 and one of the of these images are testament to what about his opinions have long been saying, which is that this, this set to the gene is utterly violent. we saw the nature th

another gaza-related protester.ctly the issues that senate democrats were pushing him on but i guess shows the breadth of the coalition that opposes him. annita: looking at what he said today, the questions put to him, what are your headlines from all of that? >> i think what stuck out to me was how united the republicans on the committee were behind him. at the beginning, after donald trump first tapped him for the role, there were republicans raising concerns about his record, about some of the allegations that have odgged him . the biggest moment for me of the hearing was senator joni ernst, the republican from iowa, just asking him such friendly questions about auditing the pentagon which is common ground between them, pointing out, you reassured me about your previous comments about women in combat. she just seemed to be telegraphing that she is on board with him now. that is a really big turnaround from where he was at early in december. i think on the democratic side, the moment that stuck out was senator tim
