you could just tell us a little bit about your reaction as you see these pictures coming out of gaza city. as paula just reminded us, this is just one pocket in a in a large city. and yet the presence of hamas fighters is quite significant. so as we get ready to to hopefully see these four young soldiers get turned over, what do you think that how important do you think is some of that messaging from hamas right now that they're trying to convey? >> good morning paula. well, you know, your correspondent jeremy diamond correctly pointed out a few moments ago that this is their way of saying we're still standing on our feet, and this goes to the to the very definition of what constitutes a win or a victory. israel has said time and time again, total victory, annihilation, eradication, obliteration of hamas and hamas is now proving that that did not happen. now, on the one hand, they have been degraded militarily in a way that they have never experienced, and it's very doubtful, paolo, that in any post war gaza scenario, they can restore their military capabilities. on the other hand, they a

in gaza are released. >> bearing in mind that the live image that we're seeing right now out of gaza cityhows just one pocket. it's just one frame of the entire region. so it's not perhaps an accurate reflection of what we would see in other parts of gaza. what is the message that you think hamas wants to send by standing in a row, standing armed, flags waving? what message do you think they want to send a the palestinian authority be the prime minister of israel? and then lastly, perhaps the world. >> well, i think it's a very similar message. it is a message of, you know, we are still here. we are still here after more than 15 months of war, after israel carried out a fairly unrelenting bombing campaign inside of the gaza strip for the last 15 months, deployed ground troops to every single part of the gaza strip, hamas is showing that it is still here, that it is still standing, that it is still armed, that its fighters are, you know, still very much present. and and that is not only a message of defiance that raises questions about israel's military strategy in gaza and kind of overall

incredible pictures from gaza city. the four female israeli soldiers are now in the custody of the international red cross after spending more than 570 days in hamas captivity after being kidnaped on october 7th, 2023. this is the second wave of a six week hostage exchange phase one of the ceasefire between israel and hamas. wow. jameel jaffer is still with me. jamil. these young women look to be in good spirits, raising their hands in victory as they took the stage with cheers from the crowd there. what's your reaction? >> yeah, look, they do, they do look, they do look well, they look like they at least, you know, in the last few days have been, have been fed and they were given appropriate clothing. and so, you know, at least as of right now, we'll, we'll learn a lot more about what happened to them in their 15 months in captivity. once they get back and they're able to sort of recover. but but at least, you know, they look they look good. now, i do want to note as we look at these, as we look at these pictures on th

what we're seeing at this point in palestine square in gaza city does appear to be the final preparations before the handover of four female israeli hostages who were taken into gaza on october 7th, 2023. now you can see fairly sizable crowds in this area. certainly, there is a very strong militant presence. we've been seeing flags of hamas, of palestinian islamic jihad, who have also, as we understand it, been holding some of the hostages since that day. now, the hostages themselves will be handed over to the international red cross. they will then be taken to the israeli military. they will be taken into israeli custody and into israeli territory, where they will be reunited with, we believe, their mothers, or at least a small part of their families and undergo an immediate medical test and check to make sure that they are okay to travel. they will then be taken on to a hospital where they will start their longer process of recovery, and where they will have emotional reunions with the rest of their families. we are expecting it to follow a fairly similar pattern to what we saw on sunda

after being released from hamas captivity earlier today, there was an organized handover in gaza city at palestine square, at which point hamas paraded these hostages across a stage as people cheered in the area of gaza city. they were then released into the custody of the red cross and taken to an idf reunification point along the gaza border, and that is where they remain at this moment, where they're able to meet their parents. they'll be evaluated by a team of doctors and psychologists, and then flown to a hospital just north of tel aviv. all of this coming together as part of that ceasefire agreement. this is the second group of hostages to be released from gaza. and israel's top spokesman for the military, daniel hagari, just commented on the situation, saying that they are indeed back in israeli territory, adding that during this time the israelis must remember those soldiers that fell alongside these four israeli soldiers who were taken from an observation unit at the nahal oz base along the gaza border on october 7th. hagari goes on to say that hamas did not obey to the agree

gaza is littered with garbage in all cities i have been to, from gaza city in the north to rafa in thewage, rubble everywhere. in the south, in khan younis and rafah, it is like an earthquake. it is dangerous environment for children and the needs are incredibly high. besides shelter and the diseases that are spreading, there is also very important needs related to nutrition. hunger has been severe throughout gaza. the risk of famine has been looming over the north but hunger has also been severe in the southern and central parts. families have lived off canned food and bread for over a year. many families have also been dependent on soup kitchens and bakeries. i have seen children queueing there, fighting with each other, fighting with adults over a loaf of bread. so there is a dire need of everything today in gaza. my colleagues have been working literally around the clock to accelerate the inflow of aid supplies. and we have seen a steep increase of the supplies coming into gaza since the ceasefire has taken effect. they supplies are picked about the crossing point, brought to wareh

we're looking at live pictures coming out of gauze, the city that's towards the north of gaza, where we are expecting momentarily or very soon the hand over a forest by the captives and was seeing the area and secured off being taken under the control of the palestinian factions as a demon assembled gates and sunrise quits for gates. as we wait for the hand of these, of these captives, these right of captives are being held in garza no doubt looking at those. well, we were talking minded about these pictures. and one of the things that i wanted to get you to comment on without we definitely don't want to speculate. but seeing the sort of equipment that's emerging, we're not just talking about light. tom spots pickup trucks, motor bikes. assume at lee. those are not things. the big vehicles, at least somewhere where you can hide very easily does, does that. so let me put the question this way. should that from the test to question the narrative that the tunnel network has been destroyed. if at this point a whole fleet of, of pickup trucks, vans motor bikes kinda merge and they don't l

this started in gaza city at palestine square, they paraded these women across. the hostages appeared to be in good condition taken to a reunification point, they saw their parents and flown to these hospitals in central israel. this is been a moment 477 days in the macon. they were taken on the morning of october 7th, many of their fellow soldiers were killed. we understand 54 soldiers lost their lives trying to defend southern israel on that david seeing these images of the soldiers reuniting with their families it is so heartwarming because they were not sure for so long if they were dead or alive. the israelis say hamas is not holding up to their end of the bargain as it relates to phase 1 of this deal. there is supposed to be a female civilian among the group today that was not released. islamic jihad, the group inside gaza believed to be holding her says that she is alive and will be released next week but the israelis looking to put pressure on hamas to ensure they hold their end of the deal. they say they won't allow palestinian civilians to cross from so

the four israeli soldiers released were first led onto a podium in gaza city surrounded by dozens of armed hamas men. once back in israel, the women were reunited with their loved ones. the soldiers were captured in the october 7th attack 15 months ago. they were seized from an army base on the border with gaza. in wadi in gaza, palestinians are queuing to return to their homes, but this isn't guaranteed after hamas failed to release a civilian hostage today. more than a day after what the uk met office called the strongest storm in ten years beat a destructive path through ireland and parts of the uk, the scottish government is telling people if they need to travel, they must take great care. the storm brought winds of more than ioomph to scotland and the island of ireland on friday. at its peak, more thani million people were without power, and hundreds of incidents of damage were reported on the railways. at least one person was killed. the name of the man that was killed yesterday during the storm, he has been named, he was heading to work when the car that he was driving, a tree

we saw hamas very much in control of the crowd in a gaza city, setting up a special podium, really controllingnners strung up in preparation, the cameras were rolling, and then the four women were brought out of the hamas vehicles and taken up to the stage, all wearing a uniform. they all looked in relatively good physical condition, given the length of their captivity, waving and smiling, some of them gave a thumbs up before they were put into the red cross vehicles and then spread across the border into israel to meet their families. 0n the other side of the queen as well, the release of 200 palestinian prisoners also unfolded fairly smoothly, the prisoners are sent back to the prisoners are sent back to the occupied west bank, to gaza, and also some of them to egypt. but after that, things began to hit a snag, israel due to withdraw some of began to hit a snag, israel due to withdraw some vehicles and into the red cross vehicles and then spread across the border into israel to meet their families. 0n the other side of the queen as well, the release of 200 palestinian prisoners also unfolded

they paraded the young women across the stage in palestine square in gaza city and the images from thehowing palestinian prisoners being released and more information about those being released into egypt today. this really raises questions about how the israelis are going to conduct themselves after phase one of the agreement because it's very clear there are two things to keep in mind. hamas is not defeated or destroyed inside gaza as we had heard from some israeli officials. and the second thing to note is that the propaganda arm of hamas is in full motion and they're take the opportunity to parade hostages through gaza city surrounded by more than 100 hamas fighters decked out in weapons and some of the weapons belonging to the israelis that were taken maybe in battle or on october 7 and they're going to use this opportunity again in the west bank to claim victory because they will be getting high profile prisoners released as part of the exchange. rachel: trey, i don't understand the strategy. to me, i see those women being paraded and surrounded by these guys with masks over thei

[applause] >> and this was the joyous scene in gaza city just a few hours ago. cheering crowds greeted the four female soldiers after their release as they boarded red cross vans to take them home to israel. israel then released 200 palestinian prisoners, all in the latest exchange. that indicates the fragile ceasefire appears to be holding in the middle east. and at the same time, israeli leaders stress. this crisis, though, is far from over. >> hamas will stay in power without and we don't have any illusions about his ideology. instability will continue and we will not be able to promote peace and security in the region. >> the four israeli soldiers released this morning were among the first to be kidnaped in october of 2023. that's when hamas killed some 1200 people in israel in the terrorist attack that started the war. >> turning now to those fires in southern california, where crews are continuing to make progress on the fire lines. the latest numbers from cal fire show the palisades fire is now 79% contained. after burning 23,000 acres. the eaton fire in

r t and saw gaza strip city. i'll find you. well, journalist muller highlighting, tom commented on the deal, she said that sounds of palestinians have given their lives for those who cannot, which on ho. it doesn't matter for 1474 to 100. it doesn't. it's not, that's the most important thing. now that gets the, has actually paved the way for thousands of what it's doing at houses to see in the see them of that. and we have paid so much. we have so much to to gain add to this the 1st to this digging into of it's keep sense and doesn't smart for us. what lots of money from a student house has a guessing game due today to us. come then said some of them that i've spent said that the last one. so, i mean, we all jump from get a because of this, of over 7 this think see it has to, for the, for the door, the is the prison and to have many of our prisoners how died you to, to so many of them with i'm the last one just died today, he's 90 and he died out the store. but we are willing to pay this choice over and over and over and over.

so what's the thing id on that account up in gaza? city alone. more than 133 pieces of heavy equipment and vehicles were destroyed in israel's have been a genocidal board. and this represents 85 percent of the municipalities capacity. therefore, the entire closet strip is in dire and urgent need of heavy machinery and equipment necessary for repair and reconstruction can. and then there is israel's blockade on garza and it's really border restrictions, both of which will slow progress. many people who are skeptical that the problem is, assistance would have translated into rail, a change or head. so what's the thing? when i went to see my house and russell, i found it completely destroyed. i wants to go to my house, but how am i supposed to do that? if i go back, i live in attend. the problem is that there's no life, uh no water, no electricity, no infrastructure or food. there's nothing left for us. removing the rumbling gauze, it's not just removing the brakes and it slaps of concrete. it's a symbol of resilience and hold for a community determ

i remember when i first went to gaza city and then further north to jabalya, just my my mouth literally hanging open. i was at a complete loss for words, and i came back to the guest house and my friend said, i've never seen you like this. you've gone. sheet white. i have seen that same reaction. i have seen so many who ended up being able to go back to gaza city, for example, because they work with international organizations. so they were on humanitarian missions, coming back completely white. and it really sort of forces the emotional barricade that people have had to build up just to be able to keep going and survive every single day, to shatter in a million different ways. and when you think about the fact that hundreds of thousands of people are going to near-simultaneously go through that same shock and trauma of really having to confront the depth and breadth of everything that was destroyed, coupled with the fact that, you know, the rebuilding effort is just it's almost mind blowing in its enormity. and then how are they going to survive in, in the rubble of what was their home

militants marched the hostages across the stage in gaza city before handing them over to the red crossr to the idf base. they will be taken to a hospital in petah tikva, which is outside of tel aviv. in exchange, israel is set to release 200 palestinian prisoners today in total, as part of the phase one of the ceasefire, hamas is releasing 33 hostages out of the roughly 90 to 100 that are still believed to be held, although dozens of that number are believed to be dead. israel is releasing a total of 737 palestinian prisoners, in addition to 1167 gaza residents who were arrested during the war. we've also seen a significant increase in the amount of daily humanitarian aid allowed into gaza under the ceasefire agreement that calls for 600 trucks per day. also, israel will gradually withdraw from the populated areas of gaza, allowing gazan civilians to return. however, since the hostage release this morning, israel has accused hamas of breaking promises in the deal, claiming that all female civilians were supposed to be released before female soldiers. israel has identified 29 year old a

their handover from hamas to the red cross happened at just about sunset in gaza city, and it was chaos were led by hamas militants and surrounded by a massive palestinian crowd. the three women are romin gonen, 24, abducted from the nova music festival. emily damari, 28, a british-israeli citizen. and doron steinbrecher, 31, a romainian-israeli citizen. now, all of them have turned a year older in their captivity. it appeared they were able to walk on their own, which will be a relief to many who did fear their condition. they will still go through checkups and the long physical as well as psychological journey to try to reintegrate back into society. 30 more hostages are set for release in phase one. a handful every seven days. and that includes two americans. 65-year-old keith siegel and 36-year-old sagui dekel chen. the hope is this deal will hold for them all to be free too. ramy inocencio, cbs news, tel aviv. >>> the l.a. county sheriff's department says more than 32,000 people in fire-ravaged people are still under evacuation orders. the california fires have killed at least 27 p

this was the scene just a short time ago in gaza city. right now, hundreds of aid trucks. they are at the rafah border crossing. they are supposed to enter gaza as soon as the fighting stops. but again, some of those pictures reminding us that that has not yet happened. our nadia bashir has more on that situation on the ground. >> there is a lot of pressure on this deal, getting to getting to work as soon as possible. a lot of questions still up in the air. and of course, in terms of the framework, in terms of what we're expecting to see today, the hope is that three israeli hostages will be released from captivity in gaza by hamas following their release and their return into israeli territory. that's when we can expect to see the release of some palestinian prisoners and detainees. now, over the course of the next six weeks, we're expecting to see hundreds of palestinian prisoners and detainees released. and, of course, 33 israeli hostages released. today. we are expecting around 95 palestinian prisoners and detainees to be released. that includes 70 women, 25 men, among

hamas erected a stage in the middle of gaza city. it's covered in propaganda slogans.e women in what we should say are costume uniforms. those are not actual israeli military uniforms. somebody went to the trouble of getting those and dressing these women up in them. they are smiling. they are waving to the crowd. and i think a couple of things can be true at once. i suspect that they fully understood that they were about to be free. i suspect this was a happy moment for them, and they knew that the fact that they were up on this stage meant that they were also minutes away from being reunited with their families. but what other hostages who have been released in the previous exchange have said is at that point, you will do whatever it takes. smile, wave, hold up, props, whatever it takes to not agitate your captors and to finally get over the line to freedom. >> alex. >> i get that. okay. ralph sanchez, thank you so much, my friend. making sense of the january 6th pardons with one person who knows the story better than most. that is next. and later we'll talk about th

in gaza city, there was a highly choreographed transfer of four young female israeli soldiers from theiras captors to the red cross. later, at a hospital in israel, they were reunited with their families. there were similar reunions in gaza and the west bank for 200 freed palestinian prisoners. fifteen months of war meant many had no homes to return to. a threat to the truce arose today when hamas didn't release a female civilian hostage it said it would. in response israel said it would not allow displaced residents to return to northern gaza, as it had agreed to. meanwhile, on israeli's northern front, israel said it would keep troops in lebanon beyond this weekend's deadline to withdraw as part of the ceasefire with hezbollah. they say hezbollah and lebanon haven't kept their side of the deal. special correspondent simona folytyn is in lebanon. simona: in the ruins, hezbollah's flag still flies i, despite the station in the south, the role of -- the war with israel is considered a victory. bread is distributed to celebrate and to honor the sacrifice. this ardent supporter of hezbollah

they waved to the crowd on stage in gaza city, smiling, hand it over to the red cross, who then hand now being medically assessed. they've been reunited with their families, but certainly at a distance they look well. these were women who were part of the surveillance unit at the nahal oz military base. their job was to be in that watchtower and monitor the border, the gaza border. and i have interviewed some of the family members of the female soldiers who did die that day. and i remember them telling me that, you know, they were highly trained and they had to keep their eyes on the screen at all times. they, in fact, could not drink normally. they had to drink through a straw because they couldn't leave the screen, and that they had reported in the months prior to october 7th that they. >> had noticed. >> unusual activity at the border. they told their superiors that hamas was training and it was up to something, and their family members later told the media those warnings went, they were ignored. and so no doubt one day, if and when there is going to be a commission into october 7

but today we're going to talk with one of the palestinian displays from the gaza city. i noticed that and she has been displaced along with her family and we're going to talk to her about how does it feel new? it? how, how does, how does it feel? the fire in the glove, to be honest, it feels like can over whelming mixture of emotions. i cannot like put my feelings into words into how i over whelming and weird it's been and we haven't been able to see it completely relieved because of how stressful it's been. not only throughout the 15 months we've been through but also within the ceasefire. and instead of the fact that it was put into into pieces the fact that it was fragmented instead of just like one big announcement and instrumentation, we're going back and forth. it's, it's in 2 days, it's in one day. it's this morning, it's afternoon. so it's just like this has been putting us into even more psychological stress. and i don't know at noon you're not allowed to go back home. no, it's gonna happen in the next week. how does that feel? that's exactly what i'm describin
