Israel says four hostages have been released by Hamas. It’s the second such release under a ceasefire agreement that stopped the fighting in Gaza last weekend. Hamas brought the four women soldiers onto a stage in Gaza City, where they were handed over to the Red Cross. They were then taken to Israel. The Palestinian militant group and allied groups captured some 250 hostages during the October 2023 terror attacks that began the war. Dozens of Palestinian prisoners are also set to be released from Israeli jails under the terms of the six-week truce.
