WE’LL HAVE MORE ON THAT NEWS FROM HAMAS, CLAIMING IT WILL RELEASE THE LAST LIVING AMERICAN HOSTAGE, BUT WE DO BEGIN TONIGHT WITH THE LATEST PROBLEMS FOR TRAVELERS AT ONE OF THE NATION’S BUSIEST AIRPORTS. ANOTHER TECHNICAL ISSUE AT NEWARK AIRPORT TODAY FORCING A 45-MINUTE GROUND STOP, LEADING TO MORE DELAYS AND CANCELLATIONS. OFFICIALS SAY THE PROBLEM WAS NOT AN OUTAGE, BUT AN EQUIPMENT FAILURE. THIS IS THE FOURTH INCIDENT IN JUST TWO WEEKS AT NEWARK. JUST THIS PAST FRIDAY, RADAR SCREENS WENT BLACK FOR 90 SECONDS, LEAVING AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS WITH NO WAY OF SEEING WHERE THE PLANES WERE. HERE’S ABC’S IKE EJIOCHI. >> Reporter: TONIGHT, A CONTINUED DOSE OF DISRUPTIONS AT NEWARK LIBERTY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, AFTER ANOTHER EQUIPMENT FAILURE, THE FOURTH IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. THE ISSUE WAS DISCOVERED AT THE PHILADELPHIA TRACON FACILITY, WHICH GUIDES AIRCRAFT IN THE AIR SPACE AROUND NEWARK INTERNATIONAL. THE FAA TEMPORARILY REDUCING TAKEOFFS AND LANDINGS WHILE BACKUP SYSTEMS WERE USED. DURING THIS TIME, THE AGENCY ISSUED A GROUND STOP FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES. >> ONE OF THE BUSIEST AIRPORTS, BUT IT’S PROBABLY ALSO BECOMING I WOULD SAY ONE OF THE WORST. >> Reporter: THE AGENCY SAYS THERE WAS NO OUTAGE, BUT A TELECOMMUNICATIONS PROBLEM, WITH REPORTS OF POPPING SOUNDS ON SOME FREQUENCIES. BY LATE MORNING, OPERATIONS RESUMED. THIS IS THE LATEST IN A SERIES OF TECHNICAL FAILURES AT NEWARK. ON FRIDAY, A RADAR AND RADIO OUTAGE AT THE SAME FACILITY LEFT AIR TROFK CONTROLLERS UNABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH PLANES FOR 90 SECONDS. A SIMILAR INCIDENT OCCURRING ON APRIL 28th. PROMPTING TRAUMA LEAVE FOR SEVERAL STAFF AND THE CANCELLATION OF OVER 1,000 FLIGHTS IN RECENT WEEKS. THE BREAKDOWNS FROM COMPUTERS THAT STILL USE FLOPPY DISCS TO OUTLOAD DATA, COMBINED WITH ONGOING CONSTRUCTION ON ITS BUSIEST RUNWAY, AND A SHORTAGE OF AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS, MAKING DELAYS AND CANCELLATIONS A DAILY REALITY. TO LIMIT MORE DISRUPTIONS, THE FAA IS SET TO MEET WITH AIRLINES OPERATING AT NEWARK TO DISCUSS POTENTIAL FLIGHT REDUCTIONS. >> THE FACT THAT PEOPLE ARE PUTTING THEIR HEADS TO FIND SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS WHILE THE BIGGER SOLUTION OF FIXING THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS BEING IMPLEMENTED, WE APPLAUD THEM FOR DOING THAT. >> Reporter: UNITED HAS ALREADY HALTED 35 DAILY ROUND TRIP FLIGHTS. TONIGHT, THE CEO SAYING THE AIRPORT IS SAFE. >> IT’S ABSOLUTELY 100% SAFE, BUT IT IS DISRUPTIVE TO CUSTOMERS. THAT’S WHY I’M GLAD OF THE ACTIONS THE FAA HAS TAKEN. >> Reporter: DIRECTOR SEAN DUFFY SAYING EQUIPMENT NEEDS TO BE UPDATED. >> THE EQUIPMENT WE USE, MUCH OF IT, WE CAN’T BUY PARTS FOR NEW, WE HAVE TO GO ON EBAY AND BUYS PARTS, IF ONE PART GOES DOWN. >> Reporter: AND RACHEL, BACK AT NEWARK, THOSE PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEM AND VITAL COMMUNICATIONS CAN’T COME SOON ENOUGH, AS THOSE TRAVEL DISRUPTIONS CONTINUE. RACHEL? >> Rachel: LOTS OF PASSENGERS WAITING FOR THOSE CHANGES. IKE, THANK YOU. >>> WE TURN NOW TO THAT OTHER BREAKING NEWS. AND THAT ANNOUNCEMENT FROM HAMAS JUST BEFORE WE CAME ON THE AIR SAYING IT WOULD RELEASE AMERICAN HOSTAGE EDAN ALEXANDER. HE VOLUNTEERED TO SERVE IN THE ISRAELI ARMY. HE WAS ABDUCTED ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE WAR ON OCTOBER 7th. ABC’S JAY O’BRIEN HAS BEEN WATCHING THE DEVELOP 78MENTS FROM WASHINGTON. >> Reporter: YEAH, RACHEL. HAMAS SAYING IT PLANS TO RELEASE ALEXANDER, A DUAL ISRAELI/U.S. CITIZEN THAT GREW UP IN NEW JERSEY, AND THE LAST KNOWN LIVING AMERICAN HOSTAGE FROM THE OCTOBER 7th ATTACK. HAMAS SAYS IT IS MAKING THE MOVE IN HOPES OF SECURING A CEASE-FIRE DEAL. ISRAEL SAYING THE U.S. INFORMED THEM OF THIS RELEASE, AND THEY WERE TOLD THERE WERE NO OTHER CONDITIONS AGREED TO HERE. NOW, THE LAST TIME WE SAW ALEXANDER WAS IN AN UNDATED HAMAS PROPAGANDA VIDEO RELEASED IN APRIL. A SOLDIER TAKEN WHEN HE WAS 19 YEARS OLD. ALEXANDER HAD HIS 20th AND 21st BIRTHDAYS IN CAPTIVITY. HAMAS INITIALLY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO RELEASE HIM IN MARCH, BUT THAT NEVER MATERIALIZED. RACHEL, ALL OF THIS COMES RIGHT BEFORE PRESIDENT TRUMP’S PLANNED MIDDLE EAST TRIP, AN ISRAELI OFFICIAL TELLING ABC NEWS RECENTLY THAT IF A CEASE-FIRE AND HOSTAGE DEAL IS NOT STRUCK BY THE END OF THAT TRIP, THAT ANOTHER MILITARY OFFENSIVE WILL BEGIN IN GAZA. RACHEL? >> Rachel: ALL EYES ON THOSE TALKS. JAY, THANK YOU. >>> WE TURN NOW TO THE HIGH STAKES NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN THE U.S. AND CHINA. AFTER TWO DAYS OF MARATHON TALKS, THE WHITE HOUSE IS INDICATING A TRADE DEAL IS AT LEAST CLOSE. WHAT CHINA IS SAYING TONIGHT, AND WILL BOTH SIDES REDUCE THEIR TARIFFS? HERE’S ABC’S SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SELINA WANG. >> Reporter: TONIGHT, AFTER HIGH STAKES NEGOTIATIONS IN GENEVA, THE WHITE HOUSE SAYING THEY’VE REACHED A TRADE DEAL WITH CHINA, BUT SO FAR, OFFERING NO DETAILS AND NOT SAYING IF EITHER COUNTRY HAS AGREED TO LOWER THEIR STEEP TARIFFS. >> IT’S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND HOW QUICKLY WE WERE ABLE TO COME TO AGREEMENT, WHICH REFLECTS THAT PERHAPS THE DIFFERENCES WERE NOT SO LARGE AS MAYBE THOUGHT. >> Reporter: SCOTT BESSENT STOPPING SHORT OF TOUTING A FULL DEAL, SAYING SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE. >> WE WILL BE GIVING DETAILS TOMORROW. BUT I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE TALKS WERE PRODUCTIVE. >> Reporter: AND BEIJING NOT CALLING THIS A DONE DEAL, ALSO SAYING THE TWO SIDES MADE SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS, AND HAVE AGREED TO CONTINUE TRADE TALKS, BUT THE DETAILS STILL NEED TO BE FINALIZED. THE PRESIDENT SUGGESTED HE’D BE OPEN TO LOWERING HIS TARIFFS ON CHINESE IMPOCKETS, WRITING ON SOCIAL MEDIA, “80% TARIFF ON CHINA SEEMS RIGHT.” AND IT ALL COMES AS PRESIDENT TRUMP IS SET TO HEAD TO THE MIDDLE EAST TOMORROW FOR THE FIRST MAJOR FOREIGN TRIP OF HIS SECOND TERM, STOPPING IN SAUDI ARABIA, QATAR, AND THE UAE. THE REGION HAS PLAYED A CRITICAL ROLE IN MEDIATING CONFLICTS AROUND THE WORLD, INCLUDING THE WAR IN UKRAINE. SOURCES TELL ABC NEWS THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS PREPARING TO ACCEPT THIS SUPER LUXURY JUMBO JET KNOWN AS THE FLOATING PALACE FROM THE ROYAL FAMILY OF QATAR. THE PRESIDENT TOURING THE PLANE IN FEBRUARY WHILE IT WAS PARKED HERE AT THE WEST PALM INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. TRUMP CAN USE THE GIFT AS A NEW AIR FORCE ONE DURING THE PRESIDENCY, THEN IT WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO THE TRUMP PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY FOUNDATION. THE UNPRECEDENTED ARRANGEMENT RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER IT’S LEGAL FOR THE ADMINISTRATION TO ACCEPT SUCH A VALUABLE GIFT FROM A FOREIGN POWER. THE SOURCES SAY BOTH THE WHITE HOUSE AND JUSTICE DEPARTMENT HAVE CONCLUDED THAT BECAUSE THE GIFT IS NOT CONDITIONED ON ANY OFFICIAL ACT, IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE BRIBERY. AND BACK TO THOSE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CHINA. WE HAVE NO DETAILS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE ABOUT WHAT THIS TRADE DEAL WITH CHINA LOOKS LIKE, BUT OFFICIALS SAY THERE WILL BE A FULL BRIEFING TOMORROW. AS OF NOW, THOSE 145% TARIFFS ON CHINESE GOODS ARE IN EFFECT, BUT ADMINISTRATION SOURCES TELL US THIS APPEARS TO BE A SIGNIFICANT STEP TOWARDS LOWERING THOSE TARIFFS. RACHEL? >> Rachel: AND APPEARS TO BE A CHANGE IN TONE FOR BOTH SIDES. THANK YOU. >>> WE TURN NOW TO THE VATICAN. POPE LEO MAKING HIS FIRST SUNDAY ADDRESS FROM THE BALCONY OVERLOOKING ST. PETER’S SQUARE. AN ESTIMATED 100,000 PEOPLE GATHERED. THE POPE CALLING FOR AN END TO ALL WARS, AND ALSO CALLING FOR THE FIGHTING TO STOP IN GAZA AND UKRAINE. ABC’S CHIEF INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT JAMES LONGMAN FROM VATICAN CITY TONIGHT. >> Reporter: FOR THE FIRST AMERICAN POPE, EVERY DAY IS HISTORY MAKING, AND TODAY, LEO XIV DID IT AGAIN, WITH HIS FIRST MAJOR PUBLIC ADDRESS. SPEAKING BEFORE AN ESTIMATED 100,000 PEOPLE GATHERED IN ST. PETER’S SQUARE FOR HIS FIRST SUNDAY BLESSING. HIS WORDS IN ITALIAN, “NO MOREGREETED WITH HUGE APPLAUSE. LEO, WITH A SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR MOTHERS, WISHING ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING THOSE IN HEAVEN, A HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY. IN THAT CROWD, WE MET THREE AMERICANS, DOMINICK AND TAYLOR FROM NEW MEXICO, AND PHILLIP FROM CHICAGO. DID YOU EVER IMAGINE YOU’D HAVE A CHICAGOAN IN THE VATICAN? >> NEVER, NEVER. I WAS VERY PLEASANTLY SURPRISED WHEN THEY PICKED HIM. >> Reporter: THE FORMER CARDINAL ROBERT FRANCIS PREVOST WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN MADE POPE WOULD HIS EXPERIENCES ABROAD. HE SERVED AS A BISHOP IN PERU FROM 2015 TO 2023. SEVERAL THOUSANDS ATTENDING A SPECIAL SATURDAY NIGHT MASS THERE IN HIS HONOR. FOLK DANCING AND FIREWORKS OUTSIDE THE CATHEDRAL. LEO IS THEIR POPE, TOO. OUR MATT RIVERS IS THERE. >> SO, IT’S NOT EVERY DAY YOU HAVE A CHURCH SERVICE OUTSIDE, AND CERTAINLY NOT EVERY DAY THAT YOU GET APPLAUSE DURING A CHURCH SERVICE, BUT IT’S NOT EVERY DAY THAT THE GUY THAT USED TO BE ARCHBISHOP HERE IS NOW THEIR POPE. >> Reporter: BACK IN THE U.S. — >> WE HAVE A NEW POPE, AND HE’S FROM CHICAGO! >> Reporter: ANOTHER LEO CELEBRATION. THE CONGREGATION AT CHICAGO’S HOLY NAME CATHEDRAL, APPLAUDING THE NEWS AT SUNDAY MASS. TOMORROW, LEO WILL SPEAK TO THE INTERNATIONAL MEDIA FOR THE FIRST TIME, AND THEN, HE’LL HAVE A WEEK TO CONTINUE GETTING USED TO HIS NEW OFFICE BEFORE SUNDAY IN HIS INSTALLATION MASS, WHERE HE’LL MEET WITH WORLD LEADERS FOR THE FIRST TIME AS POPE. RACHEL? >> Rachel: ALL RIGHT, JAMES, THANK YOU. >>> NOW, TO THE WAR IN UKRAINE. PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY TONIGHT ECHOING CALLS FOR A CEASE-FIRE, SAYING UKRAINE WILL ATTEND NEGOTIATIONS PROPOSED BY RUSSIA LATER THIS WEEK, AND NOW ZELENSKYY CHALLENGING RUSSIAN PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN TO SHOW UP, TOO. HERE’S ABC’S LAMA HASAN. >> Reporter: IF THE FIRST TIME IN THREE YEARS, TONIGHT, RUSSIAN PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN OFFERING TO COME BACK TO THE NEGOTIATING TABLE. DURING A LATE-NIGHT PRESS CONFERENCE, PUTIN CALLING TO HOLD DIRECT TALKS WITH UKRAINE NEXT THURSDAY IN ISTANBUL. PRESIDENT PUTIN SEEMINGLY IGNORING THE 30-DAY UNCONDITIONAL CEASE-FIRE DEAL BROKERED BY EU LEADERS AND THE U.S. DESPITE THE LEADERS FROM THE UK, FRANCE, GERMANY, AND POLAND, AS WELL AS PRESIDENT TRUMP PUTTING PRESSURE ON PUTIN, THREATENING TO IMPOSE MALS FIVE SANCTIONS IF HE DIDN’T AGREE. PUTIN RESPONDING ON HIS OWN TERMS, SAYING, “RUSSIA IS SEEKING SERIOUS NEGOTIATIONS AIMED AT MOVING TOWARDS A LASTING AND STRONG PEACE.” BUT NOT ROOTING OUT THAT TALKS COULD HAVE A TRUCE. IN RUSSIA, PUTIN’S SPOKESPERSON TELLING ABC’S MARTHA RADDATZ THEY WANT TO NEGOTIATE WITHOUT PRECONDITIONS. >> THIS IS WHAT HE WAS PROPOSING FOR — FOR LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS. HE KEEPS SAYING THAT WE ARE READY FOR NEGOTIATIONS. >> Reporter: UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT VOLODYMYR ZELENSKYY CALLING PUTIN’S PROPOSAL A POSITIVE SIGN THAT RUSSIA WANTS TO END THE WAR, SAYING LATE TODAY, HE WILL BE WAITING FOR PUTIN IN TURKEY, PERSONALLY. RACHEL, PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY’S OFFICE CONFIRMING TO ABC NEWS THAT HE WILL BE TRAVELING TO ISTANBUL NEXT WEEK FOR THESE DIRECT TALKS WITH RUSSIA, BUT THE QUESTION IS, WILL PRESIDENT PUTIN SHOW UP? RACHEL? >> Rachel: THAT IS THE QUESTION. ALL RIGHT, LAMA, THANK YOU. >>> INVESTIGATORS IN SOUTHERN KRA CLA ARE ON THE SCENE OF A FIERY BUS CRASH THAT KILLED AT LEAST ONE PERSON ON A FREEWAY.
