org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.ErrorCounter - line 1:199: unexpected token: JOIN

I have two Entities

@Entity
public class Video {    

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    private Integer id;     
    @Size(min = 5,max = 50, message = "Valid title is 5-50 chars")
    private String title;   
@ManyToMany(cascade = {CascadeType.MERGE})
@JoinTable(name = "vids_customers",
            joinColumns = @JoinColumn(name = "vids_id"),
            inverseJoinColumns = @JoinColumn(name = "customers_id"))
private List<Customer> customers;
// getters and setters goes here
}

and

    @Entity
    public class Customer {    

        @Id
        @GeneratedValue
        private Integer id;

        @Size(min = 5,max = 15, message = "Valid name is 5-15 chars")
        private String name;

        @ManyToMany(mappedBy = "customers", cascade = {CascadeType.MERGE})  
        private List<Videos> videos;
        // getters and setters goes here
}

I have created a record as

Video title: Stand Up for the the Champs Customers 1-John, 2-James

I want to update the video record and want to add or remove customers

Video title: Stand Up for the ... Customers 1-John, 2-James, 3-Ria

so I have a query for updating Video as

@Modifying
    @Query("UPDATE Video v SET v.title = :title WHERE v.id = :id")
    @Transactional
    void update(@Param("id") Integer id, @Param("title") String title);

the query above updates video record but does not and or remove customers, I wanted to get done that by making change in above query as

@Modifying
    @Query("UPDATE Video v SET v.title = :title JOIN v.customers c WHERE v.id = :id")
    @Transactional
    void update(@Param("id") Integer id, @Param("title") String title);

I get

How can I write a query so that I can update the video record and want to add or remove customers.

You can not update two or more entities by using HQL. First get the Video object through Hibernate session and add/remove customers to it

Video video = (Video)session.get(Video.class, id);
video.getCustomers().clear();//removes all the existing customers
Customer customer1 = new Customer();
customer1.getVideos().add(video)//adding video to the customer
video.getCustomers().add(customer1);
session.update(video)// this will insert row into video table, customers table and join table.
