Medicine for Hostages, Planned to Be Delivered in Gaza Aid Deal

Israel and Hamas have reached a deal to allow more humanitarian aid into war-ravaged Gaza, according to Qatari mediators.

They say that under a deal brokered by Qatar and France, medicines will be given to hostages held by Hamas.

In return Israel will allow more basic supplies into Gaza.

Conditions in the territory are dire after more than three months of Israeli bombardment.

Meanwhile the US says it is hopeful that further talks could lead to the release of more hostages.

The US Middle East envoy has been in Qatar to discuss the possibility of such a deal, according to a statement by the White House national security spokesperson John Kirby.
