1
00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Good morning.

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:06,040
Speaker 2: I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Amy Morris. Here are the

3
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 2: stories we're following today.

4
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: First, the latest developments out of the Middle East. Israel

5
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: and Hamas are signaling that a temporary ceasefire could be

6
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 1: extended beyond today. Under the current agreement, Hamas is releasing

7
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 1: fifty hostages in exchange for one hundred and fifty Israeli

8
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: held prisoners. President Biden says he's aiming for this break

9
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 1: in fighting to continue.

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 3: Critically, nay, today is going in and hostages are coming out,

11
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 3: and there's still structured so that it can be extended

12
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 3: to keep building on these results. That's my goal, that's

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 3: our goal, to keep this pause going beyond tomorrow.

14
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: When President Biden spoke yesterday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,

15
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: who signaled an extension was possible.

16
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Israel is coming under increasing pressure to agree to

17
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: an extension of a four day pause in it's war

18
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: with Amas. We get more from Bloomberg's Simon Marx and

19
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: Tel Aviv.

20
00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 4: Israel is under some pressure to continue to slow drip

21
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 4: releasing hostages. There is still a lot of public pressure

22
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 4: here to get many more released, and the families and

23
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 4: the victims of the hostage families are still very active.

24
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 2: Bloomberg. Simon mar says, so far Hamas has handed over

25
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 2: fifty eight hostages, including non Israelis. It is slated to

26
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 2: free another eleven Israelis today to fulfill the four day Agreement.

27
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 1: And in Washington, the issue of Israeli aid maybe getting

28
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: more complicated. Bloomberg zed Baxter has that story.

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 5: Senator Chris Murphy is saying lawmakers should consider conditioning future

30
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 5: aid to Israel based on compliance with international humanitarian law.

31
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 6: I think there's both a moral cost to this, many civilians,

32
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 6: innocent civilians, children often losing their life, but I think

33
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 6: there's a strategic cost. Ultimately, Hamas will get stronger, not weaker,

34
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 6: in the long run if all of this civilian death

35
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 6: allows them to recruit more effectively, enablely inside Gaza.

36
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 5: Murphy on CNN civilian death toll must stop, ed Baxter

37
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 5: Bloomberg Radio, Thanks D.

38
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 2: Another complicating factor in aid to Israel and Ukraine is

39
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: a dispute over security at the southern border. Republicans in

40
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 2: Congress want to tie foreign military assistance to tougher border policies.

41
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 2: On NBC's Meet the Press House Intelligence Chair Mike Turner

42
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 2: said it will be tough to pass the AID before

43
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: the end of this year. While the issue remains unresolved.

44
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: Man Amy events in the Middle East may be forcing

45
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: President Biden to skip an event he's attended the past

46
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: two years. According to The New York Times, a White

47
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: House official says the President will not be at the

48
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: COP twenty eighth Climate summit in Dubai. The official didn't

49
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: say why, but senior aids are suggesting the Israel Hamas

50
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: war has consumed the president in recent weeks.

51
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Elon Musk will today meet with the Israel with

52
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 2: Israel's Prime Minister and president, as well as representatives of

53
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 2: the families of hostages held in Gaza. The closed door

54
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 2: meeting appears to be an effort to diffuse a growing

55
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 2: backlash over the billionaire's endorsement of an anti Semitic tweet.

56
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 2: While Musk has drawn support from notable figures including hedge

57
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 2: fund manager Bill Ackman, others, including British Prime Minister Rishi Sunek,

58
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 2: say that Tesla and SpaceX chief should not be given

59
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 2: a pass because of who he is.

60
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 7: I don't tend to get in the business of scrutinizing

61
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 7: what every single person says who I've interacted with. Of

62
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 7: course I bore anti Semitism. It doesn't matter whether you're

63
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 7: Elil Musk or you or someone on the street who's

64
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 7: shouting abuse that someone who happens to be walking past you.

65
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 7: That's wrong in all its forms. Antisemitism in all its

66
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 7: forms is completely and utterly wrong.

67
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 2: So next careful criticism comes just weeks after the British

68
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,839
Speaker 2: Prime Minister had a fireside conversation with Musk at the

69
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: UKAI summit.

70
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: Turning to markets, amy stocks are going higher. That's the

71
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: call from Deutsche Bank. The firm's strategists, including Binkie Chata,

72
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: predict the S and P five hundred will rally to

73
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: a record fifty one hundred by the end of next year.

74
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: That's about twelve percent above current levels. Chata says stock

75
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: valuations are not high and earnings are growing solidly.

76
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Wall Street it returns to work with lots of

77
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 2: economic data and plenty of earnings reports. We get a

78
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 2: preview from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett.

79
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 8: Tech earnings will be in focus this week, with z

80
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 8: Scaler and crowd Strike holdings underscoring how businesses are prioritizing

81
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 8: cybersecurity after recent high profile corporate hacks. Among the other

82
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 8: technology companies reporting this week Salesforce and Dell. In New

83
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 8: York Charlie Pellette Bloomberg Radio.

84
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: Okay, Charlie, thanks for also keeping an eye on retailers today. Well,

85
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: because it's cyber Monday. The huge online spending day comes

86
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: after shoppers spend a record online on Black Friday. More

87
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: on that from Bloomberg's Eddie vendor Wald.

88
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 9: What we're seeing is that US consumers spend a record

89
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 9: nine point one billion dollars online. That's according to Adobe Analytics.

90
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 9: It's a record so far. But we're seeing two interesting trends.

91
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 9: Number One, a lot of people are spending on buy now,

92
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 9: pay later, and we are seeing them buying less luxury

93
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 9: items with this spending. So it feels like the consumer

94
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,239
Speaker 9: is starting to feel the pitch and rather than going

95
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 9: out spending big money is saying, look, this might be

96
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 9: a good opportunity to start cutting back out of spending.

97
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Eddie vander Walt says global Black Friday sales rose

98
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: twenty two percent, led by clothing, personal care, and jewelry.

99
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 2: The owner of TikTok is cutting jobs. Bye Dance plans

100
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 2: to eliminate hundreds of positions in gaming and wind down

101
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 2: at Showpee s brand Uverse. The closure marks by Dan's

102
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 2: biggest retreat from a once booming gaming industry dominated by

103
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 2: ten Cent and at smaller faux net Ease. Sources say

104
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 2: the Chinese company intends to announce the cuts later today.

105
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 2: Time now for a look at some of the other

106
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 2: stories making news around the world, and for that we're

107
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: joined by Bloomberg's John Tucker.

108
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 10: Good morning Job, Hey, Good morning Amy. The US is

109
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 10: investigating whether Iran was behind an incident in which missiles

110
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 10: were fired near the Navy destroy USS Mason. The Mason

111
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 10: intervene to stop the hijacking of a commercial cargo ship

112
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,679
Speaker 10: by pirates in the Gulf of Aidenere, Somalia on Sunday,

113
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 10: after which two ballistic missiles were fired from Yemen tour

114
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 10: the Navy destroyer. The ballistic missiles were fired from the

115
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 10: part of Yemen controlled by Iranian backed Hutu rebels. They

116
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 10: fell well short of the mark. We could be looking

117
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 10: at a shakeup in the battery industry that's critical for

118
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 10: the energy transition battery giants are starting to put their

119
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 10: money on a new sodium based technology. Let's get more

120
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 10: in this report from Bloomberg's Denise Pellegrini.

121
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 11: Sodium from rock salt and brines is cheaper and way

122
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 11: more abundant than the lithium widely used now in batteries.

123
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 11: But in the past week alone, Sweden's Northfold said it

124
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,359
Speaker 11: made a breakthrough, and China's ev maker BYD signed a

125
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,039
Speaker 11: deal to build a one point four billion dollar sodium

126
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 11: ion battery plant. Also, China's coatl said back in April

127
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 11: at sodium based batteries would be used in some vehicles

128
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 11: starting this year. This could all hit lithium demand Hardloomberg

129
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 11: GETTYF has said sodium could cut hundreds of thousands of

130
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 11: tons of lithium demand by twenty thirty five. Denise Pellegridy

131
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 11: Bloomberg Radio.

132
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 10: This post Thanksgiving travel rush could be won for the books.

133
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 10: American Airlines said that it flew six and a half

134
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 10: million customers over the holiday, the highest ever for the airline.

135
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 10: Of this traveler at New York Liberty Airport spoke for

136

Speaker 10: many I travel.

137

Speaker 11: From California to New York back and forth all the time.

138
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 2: I have never had this much of a weight.

139
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: I don't know why.

140
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,280

00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 12: The game of the day was in Philadelphia. The Eagles

160
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 12: trailed Buffalo by ten points in the fourth quarter, trailed

161
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 12: by three with twenty seconds to go when Jake Elliott

162
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 12: tied the game with a fifty nine yard field goal.

163
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 12: Philly also trailed in overtime, but Jalen Hurt scored a

164
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 12: touchdown and the Eagles beat the Bills thirty seven to thirty.

165
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 8: Fourth.

166
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 12: Philly is ten and one. The Bill's having a disappointing

167
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 12: season at six and six. The Patriots having a really

168
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 12: disappointing season.

169
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 13: They are two to nine.

170
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 12: Lost to the Giants ten to seven when Chad Ryland

171
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 12: missed a thirty five yard field goal with three seconds

172
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 12: to go. Ravens last night improved to nine and three.

173
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 12: They beat the Chargers twenty to ten. The Steelers are

174
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 12: seven and four, all seven wins by seven points or less.

175
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 12: They've been outscored on the season, but Pittsburgh able to

176
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 12: win at Cincinnati sixteen to ten. Bengals played without the

177
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 12: injured quarterback Joe Burrow. Carolina dropped a one in ten,

178
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 12: lost to Tennessee seventeen to ten. Indianapolis Street Tampa Bay

179
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 12: twenty seven to twenty Michael Pittman had over one hundred

180
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 12: yards in receptions. Two SEC schools with new football coaches

181
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 12: at Texas A and m it's Mike Elko. He had

182
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 12: been at Duke the last two years and the previous

183
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 12: to that he was the Aggies defensive coordinator. Mississippi State's

184
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 12: new coaches Jeff Levy, he had been the offensive cornator

185
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 12: head Oklahoma. Another f one win for Max first staff

186
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 12: and that's nineteen out of twenty two races. That's the

187
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 12: most ever. Celtics still on beating at home. They beat

188
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 12: the Hawks one thirteen to one of three. Jason Tatum

189
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 12: score thirty four. Johns dash that We're Bloomberg Sport.

190
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 13: From coast to coast, from New York to San Francisco,

191
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 13: Boston to Washington, DC, nationwide on Syrias Exam, the Bloomberg

192
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 13: Business app, and Bloomberg dot Com.

193
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. Today

194
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: is scheduled to be the final full day of a

195
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: four day truce between Israel and Hamas, but after the

196
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: release of dozens of hostages from Gaza, including a four

197
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: year old American Israeli girl. Both sides are now signaling

198
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: this pause could be extended. And for the latest, we're

199
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: joined from Tel Aviv by Bloomberg News reporter Simon Marx. Simon,

200
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: good morning. What is the likelihood that we could see

201
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: an extension given the number of hostages that have been

202
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: released so far?

203
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 4: Well, so far, the chances of this taking place seem

204
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 4: to be making some good progress. Hamas has released a

205
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 4: statement saying that in theory they would have greed to

206
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 4: an extension, and Israel, for the whole way along this

207
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 4: current truce, has said that it would be open to

208
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 4: further days, So we're talking about ten per day for

209
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 4: up to ten days. You know, diplomats in the city

210
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 4: do expect that we will see one or two more days.

211
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 4: It's a little unclear whether we're going to get to

212
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 4: the full ten. But there is obviously a lot of

213
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 4: pressure on the government of Benjamin Netta and Yahoo to

214
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 4: continue the release of the hostages, with the families still

215
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 4: campaigning and very vocal on this front.

216
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's happening on the outside. Talk a little bit

217
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: more about as well, the behind the scenes pressure that's

218
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: happening with Israel and Hamas to potentially secure a further ceasefire.

219
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 10: Yeah.

220
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 4: I think the main reason for this is that the

221
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 4: international community would like to see more aid get into Gaza. Obviously,

222
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 4: the strip has been pounded for weeks now, there's still

223
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 4: at least one hundred thousand people in the north with

224
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 4: very very limited access to any form of humanitarian care,

225
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 4: and then in the south you've got over a million

226
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:15,679
Speaker 4: displaced people in you know, really devastating conditions. So there

227
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 4: were two hundred trucks that managed to get over the

228
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 4: border from Egypt on Sunday. There's been about two thousand

229
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 4: in total. But the hope is is that increases a

230
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 4: lot a lot more in the coming days.

231
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: What's the feeling about whether there is enough aid going

232
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 1: in right now and whether that aid could potentially be

233
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: used to support Hamas. There has to still be that

234
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 1: concern among the Israelis, right, Yeah.

235
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 4: Of course, And you know, this is part of the

236
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 4: reason why the bureaucracy around getting trucks in, the checks

237
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 4: and balances from the Israelis were so stern and and

238
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 4: it's also part of the reason why getting aid in

239
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 4: was actually difficult in the beginning. That it does seem

240
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 4: in recent days to have opened up. There is this

241
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 4: notion that, you know, if Israel is to continue its

242
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 4: ground offensive against Hamas, that in return, they cannot be

243
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 4: seen to be blocking eight you know, and flouting international

244
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 4: humanitarian law. But yes, I mean Hamas fighters are spread

245
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 4: throughout the Gaza Strip, and many people seem to think

246
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 4: that they have a presence in the south too, where

247
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,199
Speaker 4: there are a lot of civilians.

248
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: And that factors into a lot of the commentary that

249
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: we're hearing from a particularly congressional Democrats in Washington, d C.

250
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: That future aid to Israel might need to be conditioned

251
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: on international humanitarian law being followed more stringently. How is

252
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: that potentially factoring in to Israel's decision making when it

253
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: comes to extending the pause in fighting or carrying on

254
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: this war even further once whenever the pause ends, it

255
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: does end.

256
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 4: Well very much.

257
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 13: So.

258
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 4: Israel are extremely dependent on diplomatic and material support from

259
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 4: the United States. Without that, I think, you know that

260
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 4: the pressure for them to stop this war is going

261
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 4: to mount. So far, we've seen a lot of pressure

262
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 4: from Biden's administration to make sure Israel do allowed aid in,

263
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 4: but there hasn't been you know, a stringent call for

264
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 4: any longer term ceasefire. So it does seem that this

265
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 4: green light essentially for Israel to go back in to

266
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 4: the Gaza Strip once this truce comes to an end,

267
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 4: is very much there, even though perhaps in some other

268
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 4: corners of the world, particularly the Gulf and parts of Europe,

269
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 4: obviously the pressure is mounting. But yeah, as we all know,

270
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 4: the main bidder here is the United States.

271
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: And as this pause continues, Simon, are there risks of

272
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: other fronts opening while the pause goes on. I mean

273
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: there's been sporadic fighting that we've been reporting on in

274
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: the West Bank, as well as the back and forth

275
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: over the Israeli Lebanon border.

276
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 4: Yes, definitely. As you mentioned the West Bank, I mean

277
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 4: just overnight there has been a report there were eight

278
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 4: Palestinians killed in the West Bank in an air strike.

279
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 4: The situation is very restive there that there is growing

280
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 4: settler violence. Since October seven, Jewish settlers in the area

281
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 4: have carried out way over two hundred attacks on Palestinian communities,

282
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 4: and the Israeli army have also come down pretty tough

283
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 4: on demonstrators and suspected sympathizers of Hamas. The population there

284
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 4: in general feels like it's being occupied and oppressed, and

285
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 4: that the Palestinian authority which runs the show there in

286
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 4: some areas, isn't really representative of them. Obviously, if things

287
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 4: continue in this direction, there's massive risks of it boiling over,

288
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 4: and then, you know, I think beyond that, beyond Israel's borders.

289
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 4: So far it has been more or less contained, but

290
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 4: it is very, very worrying. We saw Israel strike the

291
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 4: airport in Damascus not that long ago, targeting, yeah, targeting

292
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 4: Iranian targets there. So clearly it's a it's a huge risk.
