of this publication? from publications and in general from the speeches of such significant figures in the field of defense security, i would note the speech of the coordinator of the national security council of the white houseadmiral john kirby, and probably the speech of the former commander of the armed forces. from the usa in europe by general ben hodges. general hodges clearly said that zaluzhny soberly assesses the situation professionally and understands what ukraine needs to win. from these two speeches, i can clearly conclude that the article in the economist is definitely a kind of beacon for our partners to form strategy for the 24th year. and when we talk about the ambulance. the possibility of the appearance of these new technological solutions, there is such a factor that it is uncertain when these technological solutions will provide a synergy effect, perhaps it will be for an excessively long time, and then the question of capacity arises. of our partners to provide the needs of the defense forces in basic needs, in particular in artillery, ammunition, missiles, how do you currently assess the capabilities and capacities of our partners next year to provide these primary, well, the needs of t

in washington, well, at least there is the reaction of the coordinator of strategic communications of the national security council of the white houseier. on the article of a servant, let's hear. ukrainian leaders have the right to talk about their progress or lack thereof. i think this underscores how important it is that we continue to support ukraine. we are developing and have already evolved in the context of what we will provide ukraine with, as well as the war itself developed. and i suspect that this process will continue. it would be much easier for us to do this if congress passed additional funding. to support ukraine, because it is not only about ukraine's capabilities. a lot of that goes to restocking for the us, for our own stockpile. in the united states of america, did they hear what zaluzhnyi said , what zelenskyy said in simon schuster’s article, did they hear in ukraine what zaluzhnyi said and what zelenskyi said, because communication with society is too important to society understood that this war, well, it will not end today or tomorrow, and that a large mobilization resource is needed , which, by the way, the

a western audience, because this column itself, the economist in the white house reacted, the coordinator of the national security councilite house john kirby said that this article, i think it highlights how important that we continue to support ukraine. what do you think the western audience heard, did valery zaluzhny manage to get his point across? indeed, both the article and the interview, there is also an essay published in the economist edition, they are so conceptual and important, because they actually form an understanding of the new reality, these approaches recognize that the concept with which the ukrainian army was preparing there together with partners with those regulations regarding the penetration of the russian defense there, it actually needs changes, and the risks of transitioning into positional war can be resolved only at the expense of such technological changes, which in fact i hope will be heard by our western partners, because as i recall, last year at almost the same time, zaluzhny also gave an interview to the publication. .. it was exactly a year ago, he said then that i need 300 tanks, 500

of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces valery zaluzhnyi. the coordinator of the national security council of the white house, john kirby, emphasized that thisy confirms the urgent need for further support to ukraine. he also noted that in the course of the war , the needs of the parties change, including regarding the weapons systems that the partners provide to ukraine. according to him, it would be extremely easier to meet the current needs if congress passed president biden's request with additional funding for ukraine. i will remind you, the day before valery zaluzhnyi spoke about the difficult situation on the battlefield... and the necessary an innovative breakthrough in technical means. we are developing and have already evolved in the context of what we will provide ukraine with, just as the war itself developed. and i suspect that this process will continue. it would be much easier for us to do this if congress passed additional funding to support ukraine, because it is not only about opportunities for ukraine, but also replenishment of the funds themselves. the house of representatives of the us congress approved an aid package fo

of america, they reacted to criticism putin's john kirby stated that this is the classic rhetoric of the master of the kremlin, let's listen to the coordinator of the national security council of the white housell, isn't that cute. this is classic russian rhetoric, isn't it? when something goes wrong in your country, just blame someone else, blame it on outside influences. the west has nothing to do with it, it's just hate and bigotry and intimidation, pure and simple, and a good leader, a decent leader, would call it what it is, like president biden called it here in this country, instead of blame the west, local provincial... officials for something of course this pretense was quickly condemned, i heard within the last hour that mr. putin had decided to have some kind of meeting with security officials, but other than that we have heard nothing from the kremlin, no condemnation, no calls for an end to hatred, discrimination and bigotry against jews , nothing, and i think that's very telling. mr. valentine, what is happening. in russia, we see those actions in support of palestine, and of course hamas, which are taking place all over the world, these are millions of actions that take place i

of congress consider important, we must also change our own border policy. well, the coordinator of strategic communications of the national security council of the white houseadditional funding for ukraine and israel , with the request of which president joe biden appealed to congress, is absolutely necessary, let's listen to kirby. i would like to remind members of congress when they return to work that the numbers in this supplemental request came from our ukraine. and israeli partners, we didn't just pull these numbers out of thin air, they are exactly what our partners have told us they need in the next months. this is the impression, mr. volodymyr, that the americans are convincing themselves, that is, one part, the congress and part of the white house, are convincing each other who they are convincing and whether in this situation... aid to ukraine does not become a hostage of the presidential campaign, which has already begun , i understand in the united states of america, and in this situation, are we not going to be held hostage for the 24th year by what's going to happen in the election campaign, you know, if this decision that we're talking about

this was announced by the coordinator of strategic communications of the national security council of the white house kirby. he noted: approval of the aid package is currently a priority. according to kirby, the financing situation is becoming more and more acute, especially with regard to ukraine. current ones support packages from the states have less funds. he reminded, frost is coming. it has become more difficult for the ukrainian army to conduct operations. military, the weather is getting less favorable, let's get some straight talk. i would like to remind members of congress when they return to work that the numbers in this supplemental request were obtained from our ukrainian and israeli partners. we didn't just pull these numbers out of thin air, they are exactly what our partners have told us they need in the coming months. indeed, vasyl, the expectation is real it is important, the expectation is exciting, in fact , today volodymyr zelensky signed the state budget for the next year, and it is clear that there is a huge amount, these are funds from international partners, that is, the docu

the usa reacted to the candid interview of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces valery zaluzhny. coordinator of the national security council of the white housen kirby emphasized that this only confirms the urgent need for further support to ukraine. he also noted that in the course of the war, the needs of the parties change, including the weapons systems that the partners provide to ukraine. kirby emphasized that it would be extremely easier to meet current needs if congress passed president biden's request with additional funding, including support for ukraine. i will remind you, valeriy zaluzhny talked about the difficult situation on the battlefield and the necessary innovative breakthrough. we are evolving and have already evolved in context. i suspect that this process will continue, it would be much easier for us to do this if the congress passed additional funding to support ukraine, because it is not only about opportunities for ukraine, but also replenishment of the funds of the united states itself. the house of representatives of the us congress approved a sumucho aid package for israel. without mentioning ukraine. republicans ov

even before the american topic, the white house is working to speed up the approval of aid for ukraine , this was stated by the coordinator of the national security council of the white house, john kirby, during briefing, according to kirby, the us administration wants to encourage congress to pass the necessary aid requests as soon as possible, because, i quote: if the ukrainians are not given adequate support today, the aggressor will not stop, and the threat to the us and the world will only grow, end of quote. mr. alexander, what tools do you think the united states has? to speed up this process in the conditions in which they are currently stalled, and look, because we do not have a federal budget for the 24th year, the main support programs cannot begin to operate, without the federal budget, even the packages proposed by the president of the united states, unfortunately, they cannot start their work, and therefore an alternative option was devised, a few days ago a bill was introduced in the senate that for the period of the interim budget, this is which was adopted by january 19, ukraine and israel need to provide interim assistance, that is, tak

this was stated at the briefing by the coordinator of strategic communications of the national security council of the white housejohn kirby. he noted that the approval of the aid package is currently a priority, and according to kirby, the financing situation is becoming more and more acute, especially with regard to ukraine. current support packages from the us has less funds. he reminded that winter is approaching for the ukrainian army, it is increasingly difficult to carry out its operations, because the weather is becoming less favorable. i would like to remind members of congress when they get back to work that the numbers in this supplemental request came from our ukrainian and israeli numbers. partners, we didn't just pull these numbers out of thin air, they are exactly what our partners have told us they need in the coming months. in modern everyday life, craft-made tableware has almost completely given way to factory-made dishes produce however, pottery still hasn't lost its relevance and attractiveness, because a handmade plate or mug will be both an original gift and a wonderful addition to the inter

of congress consider important, we also need to change our own border policy. and the strategic communications coordinator of the national security council of the white house. john kirby said that the additional funding for ukraine and israel that president joe biden has asked congress for is absolutely necessary, let's hear it kirby. i would like to remind members of congress when they return to work that the numbers in this supplemental request were obtained from our ukrainian and israeli partners. we didn't just pull these numbers out of thin air, they're whole answer because our partners have told us what they need in the coming months. this is the impression, mr. volodymyr, that the americans are convincing themselves, that is, one part , the congress, and part of the white house, are convincing each other, whom they are convincing and whether, in this situation, aid to ukraine does not become a hostage to the presidential campaign, which has already begun... i so i understand in the united states of america, and in this situation, will we not be hostages of what will happen in the election campaign from the 24th year onward? well you know if this deci

the united states, for example, has already evacuated more than 400 of its citizens and their family members to the gas sector, as the coordinator of the national security council of the white houseid the day before. maxar technologies has published satellite images the rafah crossing point on the border between the gaza strip and egypt, evacuations are carried out through this crossing point. and here in the pictures you can see dozens of trucks, these are trucks with humanitarian aid for people who are in the gas sector - reports reuters. other images released by maxsar technologies show groups of people walking south of gaza city along the saladin road, with burning areas in the area visible next to them. this is freedom of the morning, and on this broadcast we talk about important topics, and we continue to talk about such things. today, ukraine is waiting for the historic conclusion of the european union, the ukrainian taxon. president volodymyr zelenskyi , the european commission believes that ukraine has fully fulfilled four of the seven criteria on the way to the eu, what requirements were set before kyiv and whether this is enough to invite ukraine to the eu this year. c

of israel. at the same time, the coordinator of the national security council of the white house, john kirby, today once again emphasized the need to support ukraine, this is how he reacted to general zaluzhnyi's article in the economist. i think this underlines how important it is that we continue to support ukraine. we we are developing and have already evolved in the context of what we provide ukraine with, just as the war itself developed. and i suspect that this process will continue, and just now yehor cherniv, people's deputy from the servant of the people faction and deputy chairman of the committee on national security, defense and intelligence, is joining our broadcast , yehor, good evening, my congratulations, good evening, what are your predictions regarding the voting of the draft law in the senate and actually, what are the options for the development of events in both cases? well, it seems very difficult to make predictions now, because you see how the situation is changing, even a week ago when we were in washington , our delegation, and the democrats, the republicans were convinced

of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhnyi to journalists are confirmation that the united states of america should continue to support ukraine, this was said by the spokesman for the national security council of the white housethink this underscores how important it is that we continue to support ukraine. i cannot, standing here today, say that it will lead to this particular weapon system or new capability. we are evolving and have already evolved in the context of what we have given ukraine, as the war itself has evolved, and i suspect that this process will continue. i would like to remind you that a column by the commander-in-chief of the ukrainian army valery appeared in the english-language economy weekly on the day before deserving in it, he stated that the situation at the front is turning into a positional war, which is beneficial to russia, and that ukraine needs military technologies to win. in addition to the column , the economist also published an extended article by zaluzhnyi and an interview with him. in these materials , the commander-in-chief of the ukrainian army focuses on five things that ukraine needs to defeat russia. this includes, in particular , air power, strengthening of radar sys

the allocation of additional funds to support ukraine and israel is not provided. let me remind you that earlier the coordinator for strategic communications at the national security council of the white housethat the absence of a further major on the part of the united states, will have a detrimental effect on the defense capabilities of kiev. the kiev regime should not count on help from europeans either. the german constitutional court yesterday banned the federal government from transferring 60 billions of euros of unused funds during the pandemic for environmental initiatives and industry support. this created a huge hole in the budget for the next financial year, and therefore double aid was suspended. scholz promised kiev 8 billion euros to ukraine by 2024. now even the adoption of the german budget, which should take place before december 1, has been paused. this means that a so-called shutdown may occur in germany. an internal political conflict is brewing in ukraine; judging by the agenda of the local media, zelsky intends to announce responsible for a possible national catastrophe is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine zaluzhny. he is blamed for the failure of t

the family. so a total of about a 1000 people who state department is trying to get out of gaza. but earlier the spokesman of the national security council in the white house had more clarity about those humanitarian supplies. going through as saying that in one day more trucks cross than in other, any other previous 24 hour period. this is what john could be at to say. please to say that the other 66 trucks got into guys over the last 24 hours. we'd like saving you manager and assistance, including food, water, and medicine is the highest single de delivery so far. but again, it's a trickle compared to what needs to get in and we're going to keep working that very, very hard. doesn't is that more trucks are expected to clear today, expect to declare, i want to carry out it. would that we're obviously watching this as close as we can . we hope that they all get in. but still again, it's just a, just the fraction of the need. somebody in the us continues to back, humanitarian polls is button on the permanent seas. fine is just the data. it appears to believe that a ceasefire is something that should involve israel directly, that the us does not feel that it

of the onset of winter and worsening weather conditions for the ukrainian army. this was stated by the coordinator of strategic communication of the us national security council, john kirby, at a briefing in the white house. his statement came as the us congress returned to work after the thanksgiving weekend. we are in critical need of the additional funding requested by the president. and i would like to remind members of congress when they return to work that the figures in the supplemental request are derived from detailed information provided by our ukrainian partners and our israeli partners. we didn't pull this out of thin air, it's in line with what our partners have told us they need in the coming months. and in both cases, time is getting less and less. you saw that in the case of ukraine, the packages under the presidential powers program that we provide now have less funds allocated because we simply don't have any. the flexibility that there used to be in terms of the amount of aid that can be provided in each package, and look, we're at a critical juncture, the winter months are upon us, for for the ukrainian army, they will be particularly noticeable, in particular, it will be more and mor

the allocation of additional funds to support ukraine and israel is not provided. let me remind you that earlier, the coordinator for strategic communications at the white house national security councilthat there was no further major outside assistance. the us will have a detrimental effect on defense capability of kyiv. tire industry workers in germany have been laid off. the largest american manufacturer of automobile tires intends to stop the work of two production plants in the country, allegedly as part of a plan to reorganize its business in the region. to reduce production costs, they plan to close the plants in fürstanawald and fulda. this will lead to the reduction of approximately 1,750 jobs . earlier it became known that the german manufacturer would cut about 5,500 workers worldwide. in conditions of information war, increased cyber attacks and the situation around our borders, national security is becoming a priority for investigators. the third international conference in minsk is already devoted to this topic. the forum was organized by the security council of belarus, the investigative committee, as well as a departmental institute. the conference serves as a platform

some, some danger, sir kostyantyn, what do you think, this is the coordinator of the council of white house national securityhe. e, characterizing and evaluating the article of the useful in the economy, said that this is one of the important arguments that it is necessary to continue to support ukraine, whether it will possibly affect - those politicians, for example in the united states, republicans, who still think, or is it worth supporting ukraine or not, here are such materials that definitely characterize the war as it is, there from the words, from the first, no matter how much we would like it, but on the meaning and content of military-technical assistance assistance to ukraine is somehow affected by the domestic political situation in key partner countries, well, we will not get anywhere from this. if, for example, certain political groups in one or another country, well, they question the volumes, for example, and the content of aid to ukraine, then they proceed from some of their own political interests, this is obvious, and the meaning of this political it's a pity, no matter how much we would

of this deal. we are hearing from this latest reaction from the white house, from the national security council. news of this deal now being back underway, richard. >> just in for us, allie raffa at the white house. thank you so much, ali. we will get back to you a little bit later. we wdennis, what we're hearing a u.s. official at the white house saying no americans today. although there is still some hope for the three others in the coming days. what is your reflection on the timing of the first two days the indication that allie raffa has? we have had no indication. what do you think of the timing with what hamas is thinking in terms of when to release the americans? >> my guess is they want to hold back with the americans because it's one of the tools they have in mind to try to extend the pause. the pause, from their standpoint, is important. it takes military pressure off of them. this has been quite intense. it puts them in a position where, basically, they can regroup. i wouldn't be surprised at all if we find that they will offer the deal provided for additional days of this pause and ex

of rehabilitation. >> cnn's matthew chance in tel aviv, thank you very much. cnn's m.j. lee is at the white house. m.j., john kirby, the spokesman for the national security council at the white house, he told cnn that no americans were in the fourth group of hostages being released today. when does the white house believe that the nine americans held by hamas might be released? >> reporter: jake, to state the obvious, the white house is very disappointed that americans did not end up being released today. they said, of course, three americans would be among the 50 initial group of women and children hostages to be released over the course of four days. one of them was abigail edan who we saw released yesterday, and then two additional women. day four of this truce has come and gone and no additional americans released so far. nothing we can say so far about the condition of these two women either. but this is a big part of the reason, jake, why u.s. officials have been pushing for an extension of this truce. we are told that senior white house officials had at least four phone conversations earlier today with the qatari prime minister, cia director bill burns wa

white house correspondent kimberly hawk. it has more so i think a variety of intelligence sources, the white house spokes person for the national security council, john kirby says that there is intelligence that there are in fact tunnels underneath a variety of hospitals in gaza, including the i'll ship a hospital that is large jihad, as well as some us are using as command and control centers as well as storage facilities for weapons. this as the united states continues to back, is real as it is coming under international condemnation for it's a tax on hospitals attacks that are also resulting in the high numbers of civilian casualties. given the fact that so many palestinians are sheltering at those hospitals. now there are many people with in the, by the administration that are expressing their concern about the policies of the us president, the latest be expressed in a letter. there is a letter signed by 400 political appointees and staff members representing 40 different agencies calling on the president to use his leverage with israel to call for an immediate cease fire or to allow more humanitarian aid into gaza. this follows 3 internal

according to axios, taken a look at this memo here report saying quote members of the white house and national security council displayed a disregard for the lives of palestinians, documented unwillingness to de-escalate and prior to october 7th a reckless lack of strategic foresight. this as secretary of state blinken traveled to india last week said far too many palestinians have been killed. that's as critical as he has been of israel since the biden administration provided weapons and support to israel after terrorist attacks last month. it accuses president biden of spreading information in his speech when he declared that israel has a duty to respond to the vicious terrorist attacks. it accuses the administration of failing to reassess american policy towards israel as it doubled down on unwavering support of military. these cables are a way for tens of thousands of state department employees to raise concerns about u.s. foreign policy. the department refuses to comment on specific cables like this one. though supports its employees using it to object. >> we expect people in our workforce to have differe

of the war. so what about visuals they have been saying, or or us officials have told us in response to best buy from the pentagon and the national security council, which advises the white house and president, this is afraid, the fragrant violation of international law. they've said they've demanded the release of the ship, the release of the crew, and they said they'll consult with that realize united nations partners has to appropriate next step use of a media outlets reported us officials is also telling them the attack took place when the fight is descended from a helicopter, they rock pulled down onto the deck and then took over the ship. and it happens to a point when the united states has also be stopped, its presence in the seas of the middle east. it says to prevent escalation from other countries in the balance softer, october. and don't tell you about an o. so at to defend the security of israel, that's what the state of the us defense department is said. suppose to a cross carriers and the war ships to accompany them in the bit least of the moment . they said, they've said that they've in 2 separate occasions, intercepted drugs coming from yemen. real kids coming

the image of kata president biden, we are told, discussing with them the implementation of disagreement, the release of some 50 people who are being captured. also hood from the national security council spokesperson in the white house, john coby, he was speaking about the advantage that can be taken off the ceasefire. speaking about hundreds of a truck says he put it that can be deployed into gaza, bringing absolutely crucial supplies in particular fuel causes having a massive fuel shortage. and it facing an energy crisis. but they will be a lot of people going in. he says, as long as with other medical items, so this at least is one thing that the us thinks that can be achieved in the course of the sci fi is to begin to address. so continue to address that di, amount of terry and situation in gaza. at wall is us officials are emphasizing that mike, we had prime minister netanyahu say in his news conference that he told his friends joe biden, that despite the cease fire, that the fighting will eventually continue a yes indeed that was contained, didn't what he told president biden once again, there's not a very high level of expectation from the us administration, but the ceasefire could lead to a last thing and to

the white house national security council noted. quote: we no longer have the flexibility we had before. in terms of the amount of assistance that canovided under each package. kirby recalled that the us administration is awaiting congressional approval of additional budgetary allocations, including for assistance to ukraine. nato secretary general called a real terrorist threat in europe. in an interview with an italian television channel, soltenberg noted that there is no immediate danger of a military attack on the alliance member countries, but the possibility of terrorist attacks remains. the secretary general of nato commented on the situation in the middle east, pointed out that the humanitarian pause in hostilities in the gas strip allowed the release of hostages and the delivery of necessary assistance to the population, and called for an extension of the truce. at the same time, according to the statement, nato never played an active role in the israeli-palestinian conflict, but is still active in the region. another wholesale drug dealer was detained in baranovichi ; drug control officers from his hometown reportedly mana

of this and, and talk about it, what does they've been saying? yeah, we have actually just go a response to this and from the us national security council, that's the top body of advisors to the white house. just gonna tell you what they said that the who, to militant caesar at the most professional galaxy leader in the red sea is a flagrant violation of international know with the mom, the immediate release of the ship and its crew will consult with the allies in you and partners as to appropriate next steps. so that's what they've said about this. and i just, as you said, has in the us has the stuff it's presence since the start the war in the middle east and the in the seas. and the middle east, they've sent to a croft carriers with a company, was ships around them to in the woods, assist in the defense of israel. but they obviously haven't been able to prevent this from happening in this case. all right, john, home and live 1st. there in washington, let's speak now to home the cell who didn't occupied east jerusalem. so honda what i is res saying about the ship as well. the use rally is releasing a number of statements about the matter. the 1st thing they wanted to address was the fa

of ships in and around there. what, what has that been? what has been the reaction to this as well? we've had an onset from the us national security council, which device is the president of the white house on security. and they said to us, this is a flagrant violation of international law. they demand the release of the crew and the ship, and they've also said that they will consult with the allies in united nations partners as to appropriate next steps. something the us, the of a media outlets of report to the us officials, the vote will so told them is the fights is uh, brock held down from a helicopter to actually take the ship. but it's something that the united states has been worried about since october. the fighting might spread throughout the region as a real result. with that, as you were mentioning, as well as in they sent full asses that and take the 2 aircraft carriers. and the group of war ships to in the woods, try and prevent an escalation, and also to assist in the security of israel. and in 2 separate occasions in the last month, warships, us warships say that they've been susceptible, even miss sauls, or drawings. they say heading from yemen even to damage them or towa

the detonation of a vehicle explosive this size, there could have been many more casualties. but very much a hallmark of jihadist. >> gillian: fran, this is gillian. the national security council tells us the white house is closely monitoring the situation, law enforcement is on the scene and investigating. what kind of a role behind the scenes does the white house team have to play here when there's suspicion this is, in fact, a thwarted or failed terrorist attack? >> you would rely on the response of the state and locals but the fbi came in, a federal border crossing, the injury to a federal officer so the fbi would assert jurisdictions. just if you knew nothing more than that, and because of their experience, especially the fbi has explosive capability, a whole database that shows explosive devices and what they looked like, what they were made with, that might help them determine what terrorist group this could be associated with, and give them leads. and so the fbi will work closely with the locals, but they will rely on their expertise and the information that they have gathered over the years of combatting terrorism, along with the atf, explosive capability. >> gillian: are you surprised to lea

the allocation of additional funds to support ukraine and israel is not provided. let me remind you that i was previously the strategic coordinator. at the white house national security councild that the absence of further major assistance from the united states would be detrimental. impact on the defense capability of kiev, the kiev regime should not count on help from europeans either; the german constitutional court the day before prohibited the federal government from transferring 60 billion euros of funds not used during the pandemic for environmental initiatives and support for industry, thereby in the budget... the next financial year created a huge hole, and therefore doubled aid to ukraine is stuck; for 2024, scholz promised kiev 8 billion euros. now, even the very adoption of the german budget, which must take place until december 1, paused. this means that a so-called shutdown may occur in germany. an internal political conflict is brewing in ukraine; judging by the agenda of local media, they intend to declare the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, zaluzhny, responsible for a possible national catastrophe. he is blamed for the failure of the offen

so neera, as the white house policy adviser, you are leading the domestic side of this strategy to combat islamophobia and antisemitism, in conjunction with the national security council, what is your response, and what is the white house response? what we saw yesterday, thousands of people in the streets of washington d.c., marching to the white house, staying outside for hours, calling for a cease-fire. >> well i mean, the president has said all throughout this, and people have the right to protest, they have the right to state their views on this important issue. in fact and some college campuses, we are seeing evidence that people are basically trying to silence protests, and that is wrong. obviously, this issue is deeply felt one, as the president has said, and as secretary blinken has said, we are pushing for a humanitarian pause. but as the domestic policy council chair, i am really looking at the domestic effects of these issues, and we are seeing rising antisemitism on campus, and a significant increase in incidences of islamophobia and anti-muslim bias as well. in an anti arab bias as well. so that is what i am doing, to combat these issues. >> and so what i

. >> one of those opinions is that, quote: members of the white house and the national security councilnted unwillingness to decan a he is late and even prior to october 7th, a reckless lack of strategic foresight. that's according to axios. it reports a junior diplomat organized this memo signed by 100 state department and usid employees, dissenting to the biden administration support of israel. it urges senior u.s. officials to reassess their policy towards israel and demand a cease-fire in gaza. without citing a specific example the memo also accuses president biden spreading misinformation. >> israel has the right to respond and, indeed, has a duty to respond to these vicious attacks. >> the memo comes at a time the administration is trying to maintain support for israel while ensuring the israeli military is minimizing civilian harm and as arabs and their governments across the region demand a full seize fire. last week, secretary of state anthony blinken made his most critical public comments on israeli conduct. >> far too many palestinians have been killed. far too many have suff

of the council. us national security officer john kirby during a briefing at the white house.n november 8th, just today, he emphasized the need to continue providing security assistance to ukraine so that ukrainian forces can make the most of the time they have left before the weather deteriorates, making it more difficult for them to advance. ukrainians will be the first to tell you that they are not are advancing and have not progressed in this counteroffensive as much as they would like. that's why we're so focused. that we continue to provide them with security assistance so that they can make the most of the time they have left before the weather starts to really deteriorate, making it more difficult for them to advance. when asked if the president believes they can do it, certainly we believe they can take back their territory, i think they 've been underestimated since the beginning of this conflict, they're capable, they're strong, they're brave, they have good command and control. if you count from the total amount of funds that have been provided to ukraine since the

of gaza. >> mj, i know you pressed john kirby the of the national security council about the americans being held hostage. what did he tell you? >> reporter: the white house has been saying for a number of weeks now that they do believe americans are among the hostages in gaza. officials have been very clear all along that ascertaining any kind of information about the hostages, their condition, their whereabouts, has been incredibly challenging. and the information i tried to get from john irkirby today was whether, if there is such a deal announced in the coming daying, what that might mean for the americans that are missing. here's that exchange. >> on the hostages, if women and children end up being released first, which is what it sounds like the situation is probably heading toward, does the u.s. have any sense of how many in that mix might be american citizens? >> i don't want to get ahead of where we are, mj. and, i mean, i know that everybody's interested in the numbers and who they're going to be. we're working that through literally in realtime with both sides. so, i think it's better if i just don't speculate about what that pool is going to l

of mass destruction at the national security council under president trump. thanks for being here. what do you make of the national security adviser's comments and the general comments come out of the white house point? >> well, jason we are seeing tonight already this pause, this 24 hour delay in a deal we thought was going to happen. families waiting with baited breath by their phones to see if they get the call, hunger games type psychologic warfare to see if their looed ones are coming home tomorrow. and now they find out the rug has been pulled out of them. it will be another day delay. so these are all psychologic warfare games, an extension of the horror show that started on october 7th. nobody should be trying to deliver press releases and victory laps right now which remain very focused and understanding of who hamas is. what this evil is, that continues to play out in want from of us and make sure we have israel's back to restart operation and destroy hamas when this is over. >> jason: it does sound, richard, like the white house was very encouraging and very supportive and probably very involved in this hostage negotiation. and it's, you know, hey, if you are going to be able to bri

of the white house, what the president, may have done or not done? >> yeah, richard. well, you reach out to a white house, as well as the national security council officials, in the wake of the news about this delay by hamas. then, this news from qatari officials that this deal was back on. we still have not received any reaction or response from those officials, but we did hear this morning from a senior u.s. official that the president has spoke multiple times yesterday by his security advisor. those things were continuing this morning, so, it's safe to assume those conversations and those updates are being given to the president as they were happening this afternoon. but this hour-long delay, richard, was undoubtedly disappointing for not just u.s. officials, but also, officials of other governments who also have hostages continuing to be held by hamas, as it injected doubts about the next steps about this multi day cease-fire. and it underscores just how fragile and sensitive this deal is. that is something the president and u.s. officials have been saying for weeks now, as these painstaking the goshen's continue. something the president him

of a dialogue, again, i believe that this is wrong, the reason for the absence of a dialogue is that... however, after these informal talks, the americans went to the national security council at the white house results. here volker and taylor agree, it was their own initiative and the nsdc simply listened to them. my guess is that kapchen and haas told someone on the national security council what they had done. at the national security council, someone from the staff answered their phone. call, i'll tell you, they listen to a lot of people. everyone likes to think of themselves as influential and important, they had the opportunity to do so, they could meet the white house, and probably it gave them some satisfaction, but i would not exaggerate the significance of the event. at the official level, the american authorities say that they are not pushing kyiv to negotiate with the kremlin, in particular because they do not see what could be discussed with the russians now. the same is said unofficially in government offices, my interlocutors assure me. and these external conversations about the need for negotiations do not put pressure on the white house. the arguments that are really weighing

happen, and that is one of the reasons that the biden administration is really pushing for this extension. john kirby, the white house spokesman with the national security councilonfirmed just a short time ago on cnn that today's release would not see any more americans released. here's a little bit more of what he had to say. >> we are working very, very hard to keep this flow of hostages going. we're glad to see that there's a two-day extension, and we certainly would hope that in the next two days -- in the next couple of install manhattans, it will see some americans coming out. but it's difficult to know for sure day to day exactly how hamas is making these decisions. >> so the hope is two more americans in the next two days. you can imagine they're pressing hamas and qatar to release these hostages. hamas knows how valuable these american prisz nevers are. then there's the question of seven others who are men, and sullivan, the national security adviser said by tonight they're expecting an update from hamas as to the conditions of those seven american men, whether they're alive or not, the medical condition they're in. jake, we should note at least three

deteriorated and as the fighting has of course grown more intense on the ground with israeli forces pushing deeper into gaza city. but today the white house's national security council spokesman john kirby effectively saying that israel has agreed to humanitarian pauses in areas of the northern gaza strip. and what he is saying is that these pauses will allow for more humanitarian aid to make it into the northern part of the gaza strip and also for civilians to be able to flee south. so this appears to be formalizing what israel has already begun to implement over the last several days. whether or not this is a widening of what we have seen over the last several days i think still remains to be seen. what we do know is that tens of thousands of civilians have already made use of these corridors in order to flee south over the last several days. just yesterday 50,000 civilians fled south according to both the idf as well as u.n. monitors. so regardless of the language here that's being used by the white house or by the israelis, it seems clear that at least this will provide some kind of respite for those palestinian civilians who have been suffering even greater in

the context of attempting to protect a civilian life while it does so. these are conversations that have been held before. we also heard from the spokesman for the national security council in the white house, john cody, who says that have been some signs of the is really forces changing this strategy to an expense to attempt to protect civilians more fully. but he said, not too much can be made office, so president biden continuing to press full, a protection of civilians during this conflict. also continuing to press full bull humanitarian aids to flow into gaza. and to that end, he's also pressing full humanitarian pause or to mandatory and pauses as he puts it to allow that a to get in and allow those who are being held captive by some us to get out. there's also a concern mike, with the ongoing violence in the west bank, which is seen a dramatic increase these past few weeks. certainly since october, the 7th. that was concerned. certainly the americans a very much. so we've seen a track down by is really forces in the occupied westbank. but what is of great concern to the state department to is the massive growth in settle a violence against palestinians in the occupied westbank. this

minutes. um, there has been reaction also from the white house to the extension of the israel hamas truce for another two days. national security council spokesman john kirby has said us president joe biden has been, quote, deeply engaged in the negotiations, including speaking with the amir of qatar, sheikh tamim bin hamad athani over the weekend. qatar, along with egypt has been the key mediator in the ongoing conflict. let's listen in on what he had to say. of course, we welcome the announcement just a little bit ago, i think the last hour or so by cutter, that the humanitarian polis in gaza, now in its fourth day will be extended for another two days, through thursday morning is real time, this humanitarian pause has already brought a halt to the fighting together with a surge of humanitarian assistance. now in order to extend the pause hamas has committed to releasing another 20 women and children over the next two days, we would have. of course hope to see the pause extended further, and that will depend upon hamas continuing to release hostages, so the approach that were taken with israel and quite frankly with our partners in t
