, topple hamas.ppened. hamas has been beaten resoundingly militarily. but as you can see in the footage of the hostage release, they're they're still there. they may be, uh, down, but they are not out. and and mr. netanyahu refused consistently to engage the u.s. this is the previous administration, the biden administration, in any kind of talks and negotiations on a postwar gaza framework. so right now, even if this works, even if this works, isabelle, we're looking at a complete political vacuum that israel will then say, well, look, hamas is taking over. of course, hamas is taking over because because israel did nothing to substitute hamas. well, of course they're armed because you didn't occupy the entire gaza strip. not that i'm saying not that i'm saying that that was a good idea. but i'm saying in terms of promising and pledging a total victory, that hasn't happened. so netanyahu wants to avoid all this, not to mention his political problems and the fact that he not once took responsibility fo

hamas is in the west bank, hamas is in the prisons hamas actually is wherever there are palestinians specifically in you, jordan and lebanon and syria and the gulf as there are other palestinian political trends you know, fatah still has the popular front for, the liberation of palestine has supporters. but if you're talking about the situation in gaza or the west bank today, they have joint operations, movements, sorry, joint operations rooms between the activist members of all of these organizations. so the situation is much more complex than what, you know, if if we're like a some ill informed senator up here and say, you know well, just got to support israel as. they as they demolish and destroy hamas in gaza you know that is just a recipe for the continuation. what i i think having studied a lot of genocides around the world that is a genocide and you know the way to end this through getting an iron clad lasting ceasefire. thank you. so rami, i'm going to turn to you. you know, the other word you mentioned besides humiliation was resistance. and a word that's come up a lot in, t

but hamas has lost a great deal. iran is weakened by israel's strikes against retaliatory strikes against iran, which were the iran strikes were not successful. with the help of the u.s. military, jordanian and other militaries in the region, and iran has lost a lot of military power and key air defenses. the collapse of the syrian regime, the transformation of the middle east in these past months by the israeli military, israeli intelligence targeted assassinations for all. the criticism has weakened hamas, for despite the show of force that you've seen in these hostage releases, where the fighters are coming out of the woodwork, coming out of the tunnels, hamas is regrouping. that's another big fear. but so far the deal has held, and 183 palestinians released. now, as we're told here, i'm told by my colleagues, by your colleagues over there that that part of the deal has held as well today. >> and we. >> know that the. >> next several phases of the deal. >> still incredibly fragile. >> and that comes. >> as. you ha

-- not from the population but the hands of hamas -- hamas will remain in power in gaza.tter of deciding if it really wants to do that. if he really wants to get rid of hamas, there is a way to get it done, but there is a military and diplomatic price to pay. so far israel has not done that for political and some military reasons. i think the day after in gaza, if hamas is there, we will continue to see the horrible sites that we are seeing on the screen now of destruction, rubble, people suffering, which is not something that we want, not something that most palestinians want. but that is what is in store if hamas remains in power. christian: some complex issues to get to grips with in phase two of these negotiations. jonathan conricus, thank you for coming on. in washington, there are crowds of protesters that have gathered today outside of the usaid building after it was announced that the trump administration intends to put control of the agency under the remit of the state department. the president says usaid is a good concept but has "radical left lunatics." speakin

there is now to be a process of negotiation between israel and hamas to get into two, hamas to get ustain this will the thet thie {hill eehfihue the for that is reason for that is that although there is huge pressure for it to happen, there is pressure, significant pressure, particularly on the of the particularly on the edge of the net in her who, on what you net in herwho. on what you call far right groups would call far right groups here run two men, touch and itamar ben—gvir, and they have the power to government down, so how the governmentdowh. sd how get through this, how 7t°7 .. . 7 to7have the7 7 7 to7have the7government not to have the government brought down, but also the overwhelming majority of israelis want to the israelis want to see the brought back. there is hostages brought back. there is not unanimity of opinion here about what exactly the next step should be. adding to that president tran comrie he president tran comrie says he wants to be a peacemaker, has taken a huge amount of credit, heard their earlierfrom heard their earlier from a we heard their earlier from

we're waiting for hamas to release an israeli american man. he has been held hostage since the october 7th attacks. we're looking at live pictures right now of what's taking place in gaza city. we see the red cross there. they're expected to take signal from hamas and take him to israeli officials now. a short time ago, hamas handed two other hostages to the red cross. israel says calderon and the other released hostage, yarden bibas, are now back in israel. so as we look at these live pictures of what we're expecting momentarily to be the release of keith siegel. i want to go now to cnn correspondent jomana karadsheh, who's watching from amman, jordan. again, the contrast with this scene that we're seeing right now compared to what we saw thursday, is absolutely striking. take us through what you're seeing. >> well, as you mentioned there, kim, what we're seeing now appears to be a preparations for the imminent handover of american israeli hostage keith siegel to the red cross. we have seen the icrc representatives and vehicles arrive at the

hamas released three hostages today as part of the agreement. and you can see all three releases in the videos there. and later today, israel is scheduled to release 183 palestinian prisoners. i want to go to cnn's jeremy diamond, who's live at kibbutz geyser in israel, with friends of the family of israeli-american keith siegel. jeremy, i can just imagine the scenes of celebration there behind you, as they must be so overjoyed to finally, finally see him free. >> yeah, without a doubt. i mean, just imagine 15 months of bottled up pressure and anticipation and anxiety all releasing in an instant as keith siegel's friends and relatives saw him emerge from hamas captivity for the first time in 15 months, we saw scenes of absolute joy here as people erupted with cheers and claps as they saw him for the first time. and now, moments ago, learning that keith siegel is indeed in the hands of the israeli military, he is safely with those israeli troops and is expected to be reunited in moments now with his wife, aviva siegel, who i've spoken to on many

and i would also note in gaza, hamas is obviously the main actor. many hostages, though, have been held by other groups as well. so those chaotic scenes included hostages who had been held by islamic jihad. and i think that was one reason why why that release looked a bit different than some of the others that we've seen. because even in gaza, there's a lot of different parties operating. >> yeah, absolutely. and you mentioned the u.s., of course, is a key player in this next week, netanyahu is expected to meet with with trump. so how much pressure do you think president trump will exert on the prime minister to to actually end the war? >> yeah. you know, kim, the meeting this week is going to be very telling. it was very important, i would say, that trump and trump's middle east envoy really did put the pressure on israel to agree to this initial phase one, and everything that we are hearing is saying that trump is really going to lean into getting phase two happening as well. he does seem to want this. this is everything that we're hearing, you kn

israel aimed to destroy hamas. as we can see, hamas is still, you know, managing to maintain a show of force, uh, showing that it has not been defeated, which is certainly a frustration for the israelis and for the trump administration as well. i think that will make the negotiations even more difficult. we know that the prime minister is under a lot of pressure from right wing members of his government, some of whom resigned to resume the war on hamas. on the other hand, there is still about 79, uh, israelis in captivity with hamas. some of them maybe are not alive, but still. so there is a second phase that needs to be negotiated of hostage releases, whether that whether that will lead to a permanent cease fire, that will be we'll have to wait and see. >> is there a risk. >> during these talks that things could fall apart and we can see a resumption of hostilities again? >> uh, well, hostilities have continued on and off at a low level. i think president trump has made it clear that he does not want any major out

over the weekend, hamas released three more israeli hostages. this was followed by the release of 183 palestinian prisoners from israeli custody. at the same time, allegations of cease-fire violations were claimed. the idf says a vehicle was moving outside of authorized areas, making it a suspicious target. several incidents like this have taken place since the cease-fire went into effect on january 19th. we are currently in the first phase of a two-phase process. during the first phase, hamas is set to release 33 hostages. 18 have been released so far. 60 more will remain in captivity for now. phase two is meant to see the release of those remaining hostages as well as the full withdrawal of the idf from gaza. negotiations for that second phase of the deal are set to begin as soon as today, but there are a number of issues that can derail further efforts to end this war. one of those factors is benjamin netanyahu. he will meet with president trump in d.c. tomorrow. netanyahu says his message to trump will focus on the return of all hostages and

what is critical about those are how far apart hamas and prime minister benjamin netanyahu truly areions losses was to give up governance which is unlikely given what we are receiving a video exchange of the hostages in israel supposed to leave gaza and end the war permanently. both of those are clearly at odds, that's going to be on the table for discussion normalization of relationships between saudi arabia and israel is the second thing under discussion much more pressure on saudi arabia as a result of the war in terms of what is the final solution for the palestinians is there a pathway to an end state certainly one of the reasons for hamas getting this war was to stop the normalization taking place and they have achieved it, the third thing what are they going to do about iran letter back on the heels and it's a huge strategic opportunity to end their influence in the middle east something we've not been able to do for 44 years. maria: the qatari is in the middle of this what do you want to ask the qatari or the prime minister of qatar about all of this they are there and the ne
