00:00Did State get involved in any manner on this?

00:02That's what I have for you.

00:03All right, Matt Lee.

00:04Who's still?

00:05He's scrolling.

00:06He's scrolling.

00:07I'm trying to find something, and I can't find it.

00:09Well, welcome to my world.

00:10Yes, Nadia.

00:11Thank you, Tammy.

00:12Two questions.

00:13On Sudan, first, the army has took over the presidential palace.

00:19Do you see a change on the ground?

00:21And what is the U.S. position regarding this development?

00:25And second, on Gaza, the Israelis are declaring that they want to annex Gaza or parts of Gaza

00:31at least.

00:32Is there any new initiative to bring them back to the negotiation table for the ceasefire?

00:36Well, first, on your first question, the SAF, the Sudanese Armed Forces, they have retaken

00:40the presidential palace in Khartoum.

00:43The ongoing fighting in Khartoum further underscores the devastating consequences of the conflict

00:47for the people of Sudan.

00:49And we continue to urge the warring parties to cease hostilities and facilitate the safe

00:55unhindered movement of life-saving humanitarian assistance.

00:59So, you know, we're watching that.

01:01I think the world should be.

01:02Much of it is watching that situation.

01:05And that seems to be an important event.

01:08But we're watching and we're aware of it.

01:10As far as Gaza, you know, look, we're still dealing with the efforts to have a ceasefire,

01:15which we had and was courtesy of Hamas, broken because of their lack of action on the parameters

01:23of the ceasefire itself.

01:25We, of course, stand by our ally Israel, as I mentioned, every day, happily so.

01:31And so I certainly won't comment on or speculate on other hypotheses of what people think is

01:38going or not going to happen.

01:40I think the main goal is, right, humanitarian supplies, the nature of the violence stopping.

01:45That is the sole focus of the nature of where we're at at this point.

01:50Well, I don't know.

01:53I'll get back to you, Said.

01:55Let's keep going here.
