## Transcript

2 days ago do days ago one of our fellow Americans a little girl named Abigail Turn 4 years old. She spent her birthday that first day at least fifty days before that held hostage by Hamas today. She's free and Joe and I to give her so many Americans are praying for the fact that she is going to be. Alright Abigail was among the 13 houses released today from Gaza under the broker and and sustained so intense of us diplomacy. She's now safely in Israel, and we continued to press and expect for additional Americans will be released as well. We will not stop working till every hostages return to their loved ones for weeks.

I've been advocating to pause in the fighting for two purple sistance get into the gods of civilians or need help and to facilitate release of hostages, and we know that innocent children and gods are suffering greatly as well. Because this war that a monsters Unleashed is so as such consequences thousands have been killed in from the earliest days of this crisis. I work closely with President sisi of Egypt Israeli government King Abdullah of Jordan and leaders throughout the region to expand the delivery of critical humanitarian assistance to help innocent Palestinians in need or not part of a moss under the deal.

Why didn't Gaza has now been pause for 3 Days critically needed age is going in and hostages are coming out and they're still structured so that it can be extended to keep building on these results. That's my goal. That's our goal to keep this pause gone beyond tomorrow so that we can continue to see more hockey just come out and search more humanitarian relief in the end of those and who indeed and Gaza.
