Deal With Hamas To Free Hostages For Halt In Gaza Strikes? Israel Responds
No deal has been reached yet for the release of hostages taken by Hamas during the October 7 war that sparked the ongoing war in Gaza, both Israel and the US have said. The remarks come a day after The Washington Post reported that Israel, the US and the Hamas were close to an agreement to release 50-odd hostages in exchange for a five-day pause in fighting.
