"Israel and Hamas Release More Hostages, Extending Truce Efforts"
Israel and Hamas are expected to release more hostages and prisoners on the last day of a six-day truce in the Gaza Strip conflict. Israel received a list of hostages to be released by Hamas, and the truce could be extended further if Hamas continues to free at least 10 Israeli hostages per day. Negotiations may be necessary to secure the release of Israeli men for the first time. Qatar hosted a meeting between Israel's Mossad and the US CIA to discuss a new phase of the truce, including the release of male hostages. The Group of Seven nations called for an extension of the ceasefire and more humanitarian aid. The truce has allowed aid trucks to enter Gaza, but the collapse of Gaza's healthcare system and dire humanitarian situation remain major concerns.
