After mediator Qatar announced that the Israel-Hamas truce in Gaza has been extended by two days, 11 hostages have been released by Hamas and are on their way to Israel. The release, which includes six Argentinians, three French citizens, and two Germans, comes after an agreement between Qatar and Hamas to further extend the initial four-day truce. The extension of the truce offers relief for Palestinians in Gaza and hope for Israelis with loved ones held captive. Over the past several days, Palestinian groups in Gaza have released captives in exchange for the release of Palestinians held in Israeli prisons. Israel has indicated that it will extend the truce by one day for every 10 hostages released, and Hamas has agreed to an extended truce under the same terms as the original deal. This pause in fighting has also allowed for increased shipments of aid into the Gaza Strip, addressing the dire humanitarian crisis in the territory.
