00:00 But first, good morning.
00:02 I want to say a few words about the ongoing effort
00:04 to bring home the hostages.
00:06 And Hamas has been holding them since October the 7th.
00:10 We've been working on this intensively for weeks,
00:13 as you all know.
00:15 I've spoken recently about it with both Prime Minister Netanyahu
00:19 and the Amir Qatari.
00:20 My team has been in the region shuttling between capital.
00:28 We -- we're now very close, very close.
00:31 We could bring some of these hostages home very soon.
00:35 But I don't want to get into the details of things
00:38 because nothing is done until it's done.
00:40 And we have more to say -- we will --
00:44 but things are looking good at the moment.
