Families of hostages not slated for release from Gaza during current truce face enduring nightmare

The cease-fire deal between Israel and Hamas will bring relief to dozens whose relatives are being held captive. But with some 240 hostages in militant hands, only a fraction of families will be reunited under the current arrangement. Hamas on Friday freed 24 people, including 13 Israeli women and children, 10 people from Thailand and one Filipino. There is some hope that the agreement could be expanded. Israel has said it will extend the truce one day for every 10 hostages freed. Still, many families are expected to be left to endure the torment of not knowing the fate of their loved ones.

What does the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas look like?

A cease-fire to facilitate the release of dozens of people taken hostage during Hamas’ raid on Israel is expected to bring the first respite to war-weary Palestinians in Gaza and a glimmer of hope to the families of the captives.

Hostages released by Hamas have returned to Israel, Israeli military says

The Israeli military says Hamas has released 13 Israelis and four foreigners in the second round of swaps under a cease-fire deal. Late Saturday, the Israeli military said the released hostages, including four Thais, had been transferred to Israel. They were being taken to hospitals for observation and to be reunited with their families. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office says the released hostages included seven children and six women. They were mostly from Kibbutz Be’eri, a community Hamas militants ravaged during their Oct. 7 cross-border attack. The children ranged in age from 3 to 16, and the women ranged from 18 to 67.
