>> hello and welcome to the viewers all around the world also here in the united states, coming up this hour on cnn. the truce extended for another day allowing more humanitarian supplies as well as the release of more israeli hostages by hamas. that we're live? the fate of an israeli mother and her two young boys in gaza remains unclear. hamas says they were killed by an israeli airstrike. the israeli military is investigating. famous or infamous? a look back at the life of henry kissinger, the architect of u.s. foreign policy and the president nixon and ford. >> live from atlanta, this is cnn newsroom with john velazquez. >> hello breaking news this hour israel and hamas have both announced a temporary truce will continue for at least another day. the news came minutes after the pause in fighting was set to expire just over an hour ago. israel says it has agreed to extend the deal in light of efforts by mediators to continue the process of negotiating for the release of hostages. we have now learned that israel has received a list of ten people, ten names to be released in the day ahead by hamas. officials with hamas says they initially refused for a pause, -- three others who they say were killed by israeli airstrikes. earlier i spoke with mark regan a senior adviser to the prime minister, i asked him about the terms of the current extension. >> israel has expressed a willingness to continue the pause on the assumption that hostages are released, so our position is clear the question is will hamas continue to release hostages ten for every day for a continued pause? the israeli position is crystal clear on this if hamas continues to release hostages, ten a day we will extend the pause. >> he was adamant, ten alive hostages. on wednesday, ten alive israeli hostages were released. for ty nationals into russian israeli women were also released under two separate agreements with hamas. another 30 palestinian women and children have been released to from israeli prisons as part of the agreement. many of them have been detained under administrative detention and had not been charged. in tel aviv, a journalist with the wilson center has released a program, thank you for being with us, we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> the question is how much longer can these 24 hour pauses continue? ten hostages for 24 hours, we're looking at another few days before they get into men and israeli soldiers they will be under negotiation at any point? >> hamas leadership is very clear. they need more time for cease fire and we are asking ourselves why there is no truth of releasing all the hostages, it's clear he needs the cease-fire because they believe after days and days they can get the permanent cease-fire, it's important for him to declare the winning of the war. this is the problem, the dilemma of the prime minister, netanyahu. getting the cease-fire declared, permanency's fire. it means this will be the end of his political career because the israelis especially the base, right-wing base encourage him to fulfill his promise to eliminate hamas regime in gaza. >> we're looking at lots more hostages -- the numbers creeping up as part of this one deal among the israelis and hamas. others have been released in separate agreements. it does then get to a point that netanyahu has to decide when the deals just cannot be made any further. and the military operation will resume. what will that point be? how will the israeli public accept that? >> they won't accept it. because netanyahu's promise and his government promised to eliminate the hamas regime in gaza straight. they won't accept it. another way i can see netanyahu restart the war because even if hamas release the hostages the citizens want, we have a problem they are holding about 80 soldiers and i don't see them releasing the soldiers so easily. soldiers will be kept by hamas till the end of the war, that is my opinion i'm following hamas for over 30 years i've research now and i think we can understand the game, he is playing with the israelis. these requests will be releasing all the prisoners, the palestinian prisoners from the israeli prisons and declare a permanent cease-fire. i can see netanyahu accept this offer, i don't think the israeli public opinion accepts this week for the time. especially as i mentioned before this will be the end of netanyahu's career. >> i guess the question is is netanyahu willing to sacrifice the lives of soldier to continue with his military operation? that's where it gets down to? only he is the man who knows what decisions he will make, cnn is reporting that privately once the fighting resumes, if it does, and the assumption is that it does the biden administration officials including the president himself are telling the israeli counterpart they do not want to see the idf resume the kind of air strikes from earlier in the war, that led to massive casualties and widespread destruction. one senior official telling cnn there is an understanding that a different type of campaign has to be conducted in the self that was conducted in the north. the question here is can there be a different type of operation being conducted in the south, they're about 2 million people grounded into a very small part of the gaza strip. are the israelis going to listen to that? is there an understanding, what do you know about this? >> i don't see netanyahu or the idf now after seven weeks of war moving the palestinians back to the north we are talking about 1.2 million palestinian refugees. i really don't see it, i don't know how we can restart the war again but this is the dilemma. i think netanyahu and the war cabinet are considering their next step. the next step is how to release the hostages. the war is complicated we have to fight in the south. it's not simple. it is only the beginning of the war to start in the south. so i really don't know how netanyahu and the whole cabinet believe that they can restart the war. >> i guess this is one of the things which we will find out in the coming days as you say it is complicated, it's difficult. hamas knew exactly what they were doing when they took 240 hostages on october 7th. thank you, we appreciate your time and your insights. israeli american dual citizen was among the hostages released wednesday. u.s. president joe biden says he is quote deeply gratified, she will soon be reunited with her family. details now from cnn's mj lee. >> reporter: very welcome news for the white house on wednesday, a dual israeli american citizen released from hamas captivity in gaza. she is the second american citizen after four year old abigail was released on sunday. president biden celebrating the news of her release after learning that she had arrived in egypt. >> i talked with her mother and father, they are very appreciative and things are moving well, she will soon be home with her three children. >> there is one additional american women that the white house has talked about that they believe is also being held hostage but no word from the white house tonight on her condition or potentially the prospects of her being released as well, there are also seven other unaccounted americans that the white house spoke enough, they said that they were all men but of course no word on their condition either. this is one of the biggest reasons that u.s. officials are currently pushing for an extension of the current truce. they say the longer the truce, more time for more hostages to get out. officials that we are speaking to really emphasizing that this is a one day at a time situation, they are very focused on getting all the women and children hostage's first, and then the attention will turn to men and soldiers as well as remains. the bodies of those that were killed in gaza, but we are having reporting that discussions have been done about what israel's military operations will look like once the truth is overt with the u.s. officials and the sizing that the military operations do need to be more deliberate, more precise and more careful once the truce is over. mj lee, cnn, white house. in the occupied west bank, they say confrontations have been escalating there. they've been escalating for years. frequent israeli incursions have caused palestinian lives according to the palestinian ministry of health. cnn's ben wedeman takes us inside one of the flash points, the refugee camp and a warning, the images in his report are graphic. >> reporter: israeli forces with bulldozers and

prosecutors have charged an indian nationals what they say was a murder for hire plot to assassinate an american citizen. it is steeped in international political intrigue extending well beyond political purpose. cnn's brian todd explains. >> reporter: for the second time in six months, we are learning of an alleged assassination attempt by the indian government on north american soil. according to an indictment unsealed on wednesday, u.s. prosecutors have charged an indian national in an alleged murder for hire plot against a sikh activist in new york city. the indictment doesn't name the man who was targeted, but u.s. officials familiar with the case tell cnn he is gurpatwant singh pannun, an activist pushing for a separate sikh state in india. acaccording to u.s. . prosecuto, the e man charged and the latest case, nikhil gupta, agreed to pay an undercover officers who he believed to be a hit man $100,000 to target the victim, and did so at the direction of an indian government official. >> brian, it is very sloppy, these things, and so risky, especially from a country who has got good diplomatic relations with the united states. this is so slapstick hollywood, i can't believe it. >> reporter: the suspect in this alleged plot was actually arrested back in june, around the same time as another alleged indian assassination plot against a sikh activist, which succeeded. hardeep singh nijjar was gunned down near vancouver, british columbia, an attack which prompted canadian prime minister justin trudeau to point the finger at the indian government. >> canadian security agencies have been actively pursuing credible allegations of a potential link between agents of the government of india and the killing of a canadian citizen. >> why would the government of nationalist indian prime minister narenda modi try to kill sikh activists who are thousands of miles away? analysts say while some sikhs are pushing for an independent state in india, they are not considered a major threat to mohdi's power. still-- >> the indian government, led by prime minister modi, always wants to project strength. it wants to show they are willing and able to go after any type of potential threat to the indian state. >> reporter: the washington post reports that president biden and his security team complained to modi's government about the alleged plot and the u.s. and urged modi to hold people accountable, but as for long term consequences for modi -- >> i would argue that the u.s. is willing to give some free passes to india that it wouldn't necessarily give many, if not most, other countries. it views india as a critical partner to help the u.s. counter china. >> the indian government vehemently denied any involvement in the assassination in canada, regarding the alleged assassination plot in the u.s., the indian foreign ministry issued a statement saying that the indian government takes the information seriously and is investigating. but the statement didn't confirm or deny the existence of a plot or any indian government involvement in it. brian todd, cnn, washington. >> we have this footnote. he faces multiple charges from the indian government. is a general counsel for new york-based called seeks for justice which is held referendums calling for a separate calloused downstate around the world. to cal state movement is outlined in movement, considered a national security threat by new delhi. a number of groups of so seated with the movement of molested as terrorist organizations under indians unlawful of activities act. it's not listed as a terrorist act in canada or united states. it gets underway soon the cop 28. controversy is surrounded this year's summit, specifically because it's all in the united arab emirate the biggest oil producers on the planet. documents reveal that the president intended to offering visiting officials oil and gas deals. but that man whose head of the national oil corporation of abu dhabi says those allegations are just not true. >> these allegations are false, not true, incorrect and not accurate. and it's an attempt to undermine the work of the cop 20 presidency. >> cnn's david mckenzie is covering the summit. he is live this hour ended by. falls, not true, not accurate. they prove their not true? any evidence? >> what they are saying is that these briefing notes were not used in meetings and they are saying it's trying to get away from the real climate meetings which as you say were 28 times of tried to solve the climate crisis. but the fact that it's being held in the uae john is always going to be sean as an ironic moment to say the least by activists and others. because the whole point of climate change mitigation is to primarily ease off our addiction to fossil fuel. here's a bit of a cheat sheet that gives a sense of the main thing that they hope to achieve here. and the world as wildly off track and reducing emissions to get to a point of warming that will be bearable for the planet in the coming years. this means that countries need to pledge to deeply cut their emissions at the very least to try and avoid the worst impacts of climate princess. a impacted we've obviously seen this year in stark relief. this is a current issue. so to do that, even officials in particular hope there will be concrete pledges to phase out fossil fuel uses. now that will be a hard ask potentially when this climate change conference is happening here in a major oil producer. they are hoping for timelines and concrete pledges, not just vague assertions that we have to transition to renewable energy away from coal and oil, otherwise this plan will be reaching a boiling point as the u.n. secretary general says. finally, it's really about our we going to pay for all of this? this is often been the sticking point in these climate conferences john. if you are going to transition away from fossil fuels, you need money to do that. and the developing countries are hoping for concrete pledges again for how the rich world will pay for the damage that they will face in mostly the global south in areas where they didn't even contribute to largely to the crisis that we face. these are very delicate, very difficult conversations and frankly the times already ran out to see whether they can in fact make the damage less than it's certainly going to be at this point. john? >> here's the thing about climate change. those least responsible for the crisis of the ones who will pay the highest price and that's where this is so unfair. david mckenzie and dubai, thank you sir. well we're following breaking news out of the middle east this hour. when we come back, israel hamas some agreed to extend their temporary pause in
