continue the process of releasing hostages. we've now learned that israel has received a list of people to be released in the day of head, a total of 16 hostage were set free by hamas on wednesday. including ten israelis under the terms of the truce, one with dual u.s. israeli citizen. for taiwan nationals, and two russian israeli women were released under separate deals. israel released 13 palestinian women and children from its prisons as part of its agreement with hamas. many of them were administrate of detention and never charged. cnn's scott mclean is following develops he joins us now live from istanbul good to see you scott two hours ago we got word the temporary chooses would be extended by one day. what more are you learning about this? >> rosemary yesterday at this time when we spoke it seemed like all of the signs were indicate that this truce would be extended relatively little resistance in fact qatar had was mediating all of us and said that it was very optimistic that the truce would be extended for another day but of course nothing has come easy and all of this. the hours before this began, both sides were saber-rattling. israeli politicians ranking crew the war would restart if a deal was not agreed, you had hamas telling its fighters to be combat ready. unless it got official word that there was an agreement by the deadline, of course we know that it came right up to the wire. there was only minutes before that deadline that we got word that ushers had been agreed, or an extra mention of this true had been agreed. the deal should have the same terms that we have seen for the last six days. broadly speaking, it involves humanitarian aid going in. ten hostages, women and children going out. 30 palestinian prisoners released from israeli jails. but those are not precisely the terms that hamas was offering to extend this. they had offered, that seven israeli women and children and three bodies of women and children that have been killed in the fighting. that was not good enough for israel. we understand from diplomatic sources close to the discussions, hamas then came back offering the same seven israeli children and three elderly people, presumably men. in all of this, it appears that hamas was the first one to blink. last hour, or two hours ago just after this deal was announced senior adviser to israeli prime minister, was on cnn and he made abundantly clear that his country will not play games. listen. >> every day we've grade to an extension, for the release of ten hostages. living hostages. that is the israeli position, that is the israeli position. hamas knows exactly what it needs to do, if they to want to save humanitarian pause extended. >> sources had previously indicated there were perhaps only enough women and children to extend this truce for another two days, we on that would be talking about civilian men, or about israeli soldiers some of whom we know are female. it's not clue how many are female though. yes hamas was turned over this list of ten people to be released today, women and children. but what happens 24 hours from now, it is not clear. it seems like hamas is coming up empty handed in the women and children that it is willing to hand over. and if this war does continue, israel may abundantly clear it is telegraphed its intentions to go into southern gaza, this is despite the fact that israel's previously said it intends to make save stones, because right now and gaza of the fighting were to resume, there would be few if any of those. this is despite the fact the israelis have been getting pressure from the americans to not continue with the same kind of heavy bombardment that we saw in northern gaza, in the first few weeks of the war. but to take a cautious careful approach rosemary. >> scott mclean joining us live from istanbul, many thanks from that report. >> joining me now from tel aviv israel's defense forces spokesperson lieutenant colonel peter lerner. thank you for talking with us. >> good morning rosemary. >> the truce was extended today, for one more day. minutes before it was due to expire. is this how things going to be now going down to the wire every day? >> rosemary, every day for the last 54, 55 days now. the idf has been engaged into -- one of them to dismantle and destroy hamas, the other one which has been the main motive for the last almost week now, is to bring home the hostages. so indeed this morning, we extended the operational pause in order to bring more hostages home. the images that are coming out every night were israel sitting around the tables, or sitting watching glued to televisions. every single night, it is a very strong image. people are an expectation, anticipation to see was coming home. what is their state. and how can we embrace them back into our communities? it is a very core component of the war effort to bring home, to rescue the hostages. they need to be brought home. >> lieutenant colonel, is the idf poised to resume military operations, the moment the truth ends? will we see planes in the air, and hear artillery fire as soon as it lapses? >> we have and we are, we continue to assess the situation as it develops. of course as a military, hope is not an option. we are conducting our operation planning, lieutenant general -- chief of the idea of staff indeed approved the operational plans yesterday, throughout the day. we are as military need to be prepared for that development, well i would not commit to a specific time or date, of course we need to be prepared for that. from our perspective, we are holding our lawns, defensive in essence. maintaining our protection of our forces on the ground for the last week. and indeed, we need to be ready to mobilize the soon as the government instructions to do so. on one hand, on to respond to threats that do develop. we have announced over the last couple of days, several events on the ground, including explosive device that hamas detonated against our forces on the ground. it is fragile the situation, the military needs to be prepared. >> yesterday the idf said it was assessing the hamas claim that the be this family, baby calf fear, brother aerial, and their mother sheer e, had been killed. what is your assessment? can you say if they are alive a dead at this juncture? >> so the bibeau's family, are very symbolic to this war, to the brutality, the horrific brutality of hamas adopting these beautiful ginger babies, into gaza. i can say that on the 7th of october we saw that they were alive, we saw the footage of them being abducted. i can't confirm at this stage what their situation is. indeed we are hoping, and once we have some sort of verification. what is most important today, is we continue to embrace the family, to what they are going through at the torn mandating reality going through. hamas or responsibility for the well-being of the family. we will continue to operate in order to bring back the hostages, every last one of them. >> lieutenant colonel peter lerner in tel aviv, many thanks for joining us. >> good day. >> and joining us now from the netherlands colin clark is the author of after the -- these logic state in the future of the terrorist duress per. he is also director of policy and research at the student group. we appreciate you being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> just over two hours ago, the world was holding its collective breath as that deadline approach for the temporary truce tint. but then we got word it was being extended by a day, israel is making it clear it wants ten living hostages in exchange for that pause in fighting. hamas apparently struggling to do that at one point. what is your reaction to where things stand right now? >> well another day, which is good news. this has been a fairly short sided conflict. i think, any tactical benefit should be celebrated. i'm concerned the truce is fragile. that hamas baby struggling to obtain hostages that are held by other militant, and criminal groups. palestinian islamic jihad, criminal elements from gaza that were part of the october 7th attack. i'm holding out hope, but i know that the israelis are poised to begin the conflict again. >> israel has told cnn that hamas is still holding 140 hostages. they want ten living hostages on the upcoming seventh day of the truce, as we mentioned. why was hamas initially offering instead to release seven hostages, and the bodies of three others, who they say were killed is an israeli airstrike. >> it's hard to know exactly what is going on behind the scenes, in terms of hamas's inner decision-making. there is probably a lot of bargaining and hedging going on. the other part is, there are different categories or classifications of hostages. the closer we get down to military aged males, to idf soldiers. those are what we consider him a high value bargaining chips. we're gonna see different price exacted for the exchange of those hostages. if we even get to that point. >> i want to ask you about that. we know that male and feel male idf soldiers as well as young and old civilian men, remain as hostages. what will likely happily to them? well there release require a new and broader agreement, do you think? >> it very well me. it may also require a exchange of other palestinians, or members of hamas would -- high value top, in jewitt jewels held in israeli jails. we know there's intense shuttle diplomacy happening behind the scenes. with the united states, the egyptians, the qataris and others. these are really important details. they will determine whether or not this truce is able to extend or it will devolve back into fighting, my fear if we do devolve back into fighting. reaching another truce is going to be extremely difficult. >> israel has told cnn that it has three aims, destroy hamas, get back all the hostages, and ensure october 7th is never repeated. but how achievable are any or all of these schools for israel? >> you have to wonder at a certain point, whether these goals are working at cross purposes. i think the whole notion of eradicating hamas and destroying hamas, was really a strategic communication failure for israel. to begin with, they are not gonna be able to destroy hamas. they may severely weaken the group, they may limit most of the leadership. they are not gonna totally eliminate a terrorist group, it is impossible to do. setting that is a goal means that all must needs to do in order to claim victory, is survive. they will likely be focused on that, and this is a group that's obviously quite skilled asymmetric warfare. in insurgency, if the truth breaks down or expires or lapses. we are gonna be heading back into some pretty tense fighting. >> what has been achieved on either side, in the midst of all of this? what was hamas's endgame here? in the end, we end up straight where we were in the beginning? >> i think hamas and game is something that is endlessly debated. if you look at hamas's endgame, you also have to consider what iran school was here. and whether that was scuttling israeli saudi normalization talks, or whole other range of diplomatic initiatives that were taking place in the region that we are excluding the iranians, that's the strategic level goals. for the israelis, i think they've attempted to destroy as much as hamas's military infrastructure as possible. but again, to completely eradicate a terrorist group, is next to impossible. and the links these rallies would have to continue to go to do that, risk them losing international opinion. they are on their way to doing right now, with massive civilian casualties and collateral damage. >> colin clark, thank you for joining us and sharing your analysis on this issue. we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> one of the most influential and polarizing foreign policy livers of our time has died. henry kissinger the longtime u.s. secretary of state and national security adviser under richard nixon, and gerald ford was 100 years old. cnn's richard roth recounts kissinger's break third a successes and his controversial policies, brought him widespread praise and deep scorn. >> >> i know all of you will want to hear from the secretary of state. >> henry kissinger never really needed an introduction on the world stage, again. kissinger, the most famous statesman of the last half of the 20th century, celebrated and controversial. as richard nixon's national security adviser and secretary of state, the diplomat wielded enormous power and influence. so trusted, it was kissinger that went to china on a secret mission to explore a historic opening of u.s. relations with communist china. >> whoever went would be alone in beijing with no communication. therefore, if he didn't know nixon's mind, he might do foolish things. >> initially, there were fears a u.s.-china ping pong exchange match would affect the high stakes political gambit. >> every once in a while, something happens and diplomacy which transcends the drafting of cable. >> vietnam casualties mounted as the vietnamese gained territory. nixon and and undiplomatic kissinger thought more bombing of the north would help. >> [inaudible] >> kissinger approved secret bombings of north vietnamese units in cambodia without congressional approval. he would say sometimes statesman have to choose between evils and moral compromises in messy conflicts. kissinger and his vietnamese counterpart, le duc tho, were awarded the nobel peace prize for their role in negotiating a cease-fire. >> i have to say, i have never dealt with a group of people as treacherous as the north vietnamese leadership. >> kissinger insisted trouble on the home front hurt chances to succeed in vietnam. >> we lost the war because we were divided and also because we were too uncertain about what we wanted. >> kissinger's support for a coup in chile and pro-u.s. military strongmen in other parts of the world drew criticism. >> we charge henry for war crimes. >> kissinger's legacy would be contested decades later when he testified in congress at the age of 91. kissinger grew up in germany with war clouds swirling, his family fled when he was 15. >> about half the people i went to school with and about 13 members of my own family died in concentration camps. >> a jewish secretary of state who would later listen to his president criticize american jewish leaders. >> it's a bad time to be a jew in america. >> i only heard antisemitic comments when some jewish groups would attack him for something he had done. >> in the middle east, kissinger performed what came to be known as shuttle diplomacy to separate israeli and arab forces, setting the stage for future peace accords. when nixon resigned as president, kissinger stayed on as gerald ford's secretary of state, his opinion still widely sought after by governments and businesses after leaving public office. >> you want to leave your country better off than you found it, and there is nothing in private life you can do that is as interesting as fulfilling. >> there was one j job kissingnr said he nenever got toto do in s life, a sports announcer. >> derek who? >> however, the globe-trotting diplomat was a star in some of history's biggest games. ♪ ♪ ♪ 28 yuan climate conference are caught 28 is set to begin in just a few hours. khan traverse-y has surrounded this year's summit in the uae, leaked documents appear to suggest the conference's president, attended to all of -- oil and gas projects, but sultan elderberry says that is not true. >> these allegations, or false. not true. incorrect. and not accurate. it's an attempt, to undermine the work of the cop 28 presidency. >> cnn's david mckenzie isn't to buy, he joins us now. david what more are you learning about all the controversy surrounding this your summit?
