Hopes of Gaza Truce Extension as More Hostages Set to Be Freed

Talks over a possible extension of the temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hamas are continuing in Qatar

Israel says it’s received a list of hostages held in Gaza who could be released later on Wednesday, on the sixth day of the current truce

On Tuesday, 12 more hostages were released by Hamas and Israel freed 30 more Palestinian prisoners

Palestinian prisoners have alleged mistreatment while in Israeli jails. A 14-year-old boy said he witnessed beatings; Israel has not commented

Hamas crossed the border and killed 1,200 people in Israel on 7 October, with about 240 taken hostage

Since then, Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry says more than 14,800 people have been killed in Israel’s retaliatory campaign including about 6,000 children
