00:00 After a lengthy delay, a second group of hostages were released from Hamas captivity in exchange

00:24 Thirteen Israelis and four Thai nationals held by Hamas were released late last night
00:29 after many hours of waiting.
00:31 The Palestinian militant group delayed the exchange after accusing Israel of failing
00:36 to respect the terms of their truce agreement.
00:39 An agonizing wait also for the families of 39 Palestinian prisoners who were freed as
00:45 part of the deal.
00:47 The six women and 33 teenagers arrived by bus in Beitounia in the occupied West Bank.
00:54 Meanwhile two Palestinians were reportedly killed and seven others were injured in clashes

01:04 night.
01:05 The Palestinian health ministry says two of the wounded are in a critical condition.
01:11 And in Israel, thousands of people gathered in a square in Tel Aviv to demand the release
01:16 of all hostages still being held in the Gaza Strip.
01:20 "We are here in the square of the hostages, we are excited about the release of the first
01:27 group of hostages, but the road is still long and the strength of our families, in unity
01:34 and in mutual friendship, will release all the hostages."
01:39 In total, 50 Israeli hostages and 150 Palestinian prisoners are to be freed during the four-day
01:46 truce.
01:47 FBI officials say 18 of its citizens still remain in captivity.
01:56 A new day with some respite for Palestinians in Gaza after seven weeks of bombardment.
02:03 As the four-day truce between Hamas and Israel holds, they are using the calm to venture
02:08 out and about.
02:10 Residents have been taking stock of the damage to their neighborhood, searching for belongings
02:14 and people beneath the rubble, and buying what essential supplies they can get hold
02:19 of.
02:20 "What is the 84 tons when they enter Gaza?
02:25 Nothing, the kitchens are standing.
02:28 People are baking bread on the firewood."
02:33 "The four-day truce, we hope from God that it will last long."
02:41 Trucks loaded with badly needed food, drinking water and medicine are finally reaching the
02:47 northern combat zone, where desperate people were seen grabbing what they could.
02:55 The sea of Azov, connected to the Black Sea by a narrow strait.
03:00 This is where Russia claims it shot down two Ukrainian surface-to-air missiles that had
03:04 been adapted to hit land targets.
03:07 It also says it thwarted a drone attack, shooting down more than 20 of them over Moscow and
03:12 the regions of Bryansk, Smolensk and Tula.
03:16 An air raid alert sounded in annexed Crimea in the south, and the Kerch Bridge was closed
03:21 for a while.

03:27 into an apartment building.
03:30 During the night, Russia launched nine kamikaze drones across Ukraine, eight of which Kiev
03:34 says were shot down.
03:37 This comes a day after it said the capital experienced the largest Russian drone attack
03:41 since the start of the war.
03:45 With winter weather settling in, both sides are looking to take ground that could be springboards
03:50 for future advances.
03:55 Snowstorms have hit Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia and Moldova after Cyclone Bettina formed over
04:00 the Black Sea.
04:01 In Moldova, two people died in road accidents.
04:05 And a red alert for bad weather remains in place in four eastern counties in neighboring
04:09 Romania, two of them on the Black Sea.
04:12 Red weather alerts were also issued for four regions in northeastern Bulgaria due to both
04:17 the snow and the high winds.
04:19 And the center and the west of the country were also hit by snowstorms.
04:24 It was a similar story in Serbia, where roads became impassable in the west and high winds
04:29 brought down trees and power lines.
04:32 In Italy, one woman died after a tree brought down by the high winds fell on top of her
04:37 as she was walking along the pavement in Rome.
04:40 Over 300 trees and branches came down in the city and six people were injured.
04:45 One tree fell onto a children's playground at midday on Saturday, but fortunately no
04:50 one was hurt.
