Israel and hamas appeared to be inching, told a possible deal for the release of some of the two hundred forty hostages hit at by hamas last month. To do that, there will also have to be a pause in the fighting.

In an interview on nbc s meet the press, president bidens, deputy national security adviser john finer issued words of caution.

nothing is agreed until everything is agreed.

The news or the anticipation of news comes as israel presented video that IT says that shows a hamas tunnel under russia for hospital, a focal point for the war. In the past several weeks.

amperes learned fer until evac has been reporting on all of this, and she's with us now. One a good morning, Laura.

Good morning, Michelle.

Would you used to start by telling us the latest l shift.

which is gos as biggest hospital? Michelle, you've probably seen the pictures that captivated the world, these thirty one newborn e babies struggling to survive after their incubators cut out for lack of electricity. Adl shifa doctors, they're huddled them together on a bed to keep them warm as the war raged outside.

Will they now have been waited? Palestinian ambuLances drove them out last night, and they are expected to cross the border into egypt today. Israel now controls that hospital.

It's been evacuating people and they allowed U. N. Representatives in, and they described the interior as a death zone with signs of shelling, gunfire and a mass grave.

Israel, meanwhile, has released a bunch of videos, IT says prove that hama's not only Operated out of tunnels under the hospital, but that IT brought at least three hostages into the hospital and in fact, killed one of them. There they, they showed a hospital security camera footage and video recorded apparently by a robot that went into those tunnel. S, N, P, R. Hasn't been able to independently verify any of that footage, though.

Let's turn to the hostages, which is a subject that deeply people from a number of nations, the golf country of qatar, is acting as immediate, or its prime minister told reporters yesterday that only minor obstacles remain on a deal to release hostages. Is that what you're hearing?

Yeah, I book with a former mosad intelligence agent. His name is David medan. He negotiated israel last big hostage transfer involving gillam shelled. He was in israeli soldier held by hamas and gaza for five years. He was released twelve of years ago, and my dad did the negotiations. He did IT inside egyptian and intelligence headquarters and cairo, and he described the israelis in one room homos down the hall, the egyptian shuttling between them. He says, this time is way harder.

You have to send messages from israel to katari, from the katari to the leaders of harassing katar and the of passing the message to a gaza. You know.

he takes time. You know, the homos decision makers, he says, are not in kota. They are literally underground in these gaza tunnels. Another israeli hostage negotiator told me.

His understanding is that they are literally passing notes on paper through these tunnels in gaza, up to intelligence officials at the egyptian border, then out to cut out to the us. And then to israel. Well, so negotiations .

on the one hand, on the other hand, we see that israel, we hear that israel is widening its bump. Barber of gaza. What's the latest on that?

Some of the fiercest fighting today seems to be around yet another hospital in the north of gaza. Witnesses report airstrikes, shelling, israeli tanks moving in. Israeli forces, meanwhile, have stepped up their attacks in the south of gaza as well. And that is an area where israel had encouraged civilians to flee toward so gazes. Two point three million people are being freezed into an ever smaller area that is suffering more israeli strikes.

That is amp. Layer freer, intellivision, laun. Thank you.

Thanks, Michelle.

Condolences are pouring in following the death of former first related rosaleen Carter. SHE died yesterday at her home in planes georgia at ninety .

six president biden and first lady jill by said they remembered her for hope and warmth and optimism. Carter served her White house role from nineteen seventy seven and ninety eighty one and is remembered for spending even more years advocating for mental health and caregivers.

Our body covers politics for W A, B, E in atlanta, and he's with us ahead of the start of ceremonies next week, which will honour her life. The money will.

Good morning.

So run. Cota was sometimes referred to as the steel magnetic. Would you remind us about why that is?

As first lady, SHE was sometimes called steal magna by the media because he had a very gentle persona about her, but he was tough in her support of her husband under causes in a thousand and eighty four interview. And P. R. Should talk about .

her advocacy about, I love the political life. I loved IT. I like the intrigant IT.

And having one election, people who really support you in the next election will be your opponents in the one who your opponents will be your supporters. I'd just like the whole. I like all of them. I like getting at the meeting people and talking with them and learning the country. IT was just fascinating to me.

S, and while he did, miss SHE had another outlet for her advocate. When the Carter center was built in the atlantic in the eighties, SHE kept talking about mental health and caregiving. SHE wrote books about, IT kept saying he wanted to fight the stigma around mental help.

Helping people would have those important conversations. One of the things he did start with the mental health journalism fellowship program at the Carter center that's been gone ninety ninety six, with the goal of more accurate and indebt reporting on mental health. SHE also had a deep passion for advocating for caregivers that dates back to wonder father had cancer eventually passing away when he was thirteen. SHE took on the caregiving role as the oldest of horse brings.

Would you tell us a bit more about her relationship with to my country? They were married for a very long time.

seventy seven years, and and you often saw them together, braves baseball games, building houses for habitat for humanity, travellin through africa, fighting diseases. For many people, they were really just the Carters. You know, when I covered Jimmy Carters nine, nine birthday celebration a few weeks, because so many people had a story about seeing the Carters together.

Their last appearance together was at the planes peanut festival public appearance, where they wrote in a parade back in september. They group and planes together. They started dating in nineteen and forty five, Jimmy Carter said, in twenty fifteen, the best thing he ever did was marrying roslin. The Carters had four children, twelve grandchildren, fourteen great grandchildren. One of those grand children, Jason Carter, served in the George state senate, now works as a trusty of the Carter center.

And how are people in her home state remembering .

her condolence know that are coming from all over the world and from across the country? You heard from president biden and first lady jill biden, George's governor brian camp, who was among the first to payers respects, he highlighted coverage work championing mental health services and promoting the state he loved across the globe. Memorial services are scheduled to take place next week in sutter county and in atlantic, starting monday through wednesday of next week.

That is moral boli with W. A. V. E. And at last, role.

Thank you. Thank you.

An ultra conservative economist who has pledged to take a chainsaw to argentine is troubled economy has won a polar ized presidential race hay me lay on the run after feeding the ruling parties candidate that which was the country's economy minister who's overseen one of the worst economic .

crises and decades now me lay as a style that has drawn comparisons to Donald trump. He countered voters anger. He dealt a blow to the political establishment in his country and handed a Victory to the global far right movement.

We're joined now by emps Carry, kon and ben us address to tell us more Carry. Good morning. Good morning. I M understand that this is a each political upset. So how did mile and his supporters .

pulled this off? IT is huge, but the economic situation here in argentina has been so bad for so long, inflation is heading toward two hundred percent, the pao loses value. Everyday people just can't make ends me.

And both the left in the right political establishment haven't been able to fix the situation. So this is not really a surprise that an outsider, even one, is eccentric and alter conservatives as mile could win. I think the biggest surprise here is White IT took so long.

So what didn't a lay have to say about his Victory?

He went out onto the street last night to address thousands celebrating and told the crowd that the work before them would be difficult and not for the timid. He said. The government has left us with a destroyed economy, with sky rocking inflation and a huge debt.

he.

Told the crowd, echoing his standard loud exploit stump speeches, that he is the determination in the force of his libertarian principles to put argentina back on its feet and move IT forward altizer supplies and his fans familiar chance of liberty liberty .

did the ruling party candidate speak last night. So what did he say?

He was quite standing, Michelle. How fast he came out and conceded the official numbers weren't even out. And he was congratulated malay and pledging a smoothed transition.

In the end, IT was an eleven point difference. Masa had a tough campaign around lucky's, the current economy minister who's been overseeing argentina bad, the worst finances for the last year. He couldn't run on his record.

So he ran this huge fear campaign warning voters of malaysia radical changes. And clearly, IT didn't work. And his parents party, which has been one of the dominant forces in the country for decades, was developed the stunning blow yesterday.

So Carry, say more about what the voters were telling you.

Many I talked to were arden malay's supporters, but there were a lot of voters who were but for change, but very worried about malay's exciting tricity are just highlight a few here. He has five clone dogs that he calls his children. His sister is his closest advisor and maybe the first lady. He has this famous temper and no political experience. Voter dian tango told me he wasn't worry about any of that.

He said, sure, he's impulsive and .

gets emotional, but his economic policies are sound, and he'll have plenty of people around them to help him learn the rope, he said. And malay will have to do that fast. He takes power on december twenty.

That is inference Carry calm from window is Carry.

Thank you so much. You're welcome.

And that's a first first monday, november twenty and twenty twenty .
