The release of hostages is seen as great news, but there is concern that Israel might try to scuttle the deal or violate it after getting the hostages back.

A ceasefire has been negotiated by the President of the United States and his team between Israel and the remnants of Hamas, leading to the release of 20 live hostages and 28 dead bodies held by Hamas in the Gaza Strip. This is seen as a near-miraculous move by President Trump, who was able to mobilize the entire world, including the Arab world.

The Israeli cabinet has approved an agreement to stop the war in Gaza. This agreement includes Israel pulling back to a predefined border and the release of 20 live hostages and 28 dead hostages within 72 hours of a ceasefire. Hamas claims this is the end of the war, but the United States says it could be if Hamas disarms and hands over governance.

Hamas has agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages, including the bodies of any deceased hostages, as part of President Trump's peace plan.

The release of 1,700 Palestinian hostages by Israel, many of whom were detained without charge, marks a significant moment in the ongoing conflict. This event is part of a larger exchange that also saw the return of 20 Israeli hostages, highlighting the complex dynamics of prisoner swaps in the region.

The plan includes a staged withdrawal of Israeli forces, contingent on the release of hostages and the cessation of military operations by Hamas.

The release of hostages and the end of Hamas' rule in Gaza are key objectives for Israel.

Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement for the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, a breakthrough that could be a crucial step toward an end to the two-year war in Gaza.

Hamas accepted the first phase of the Gaza peace plan brokered by the Trump team, and Israel's government was doing the same. If successful, the IDF will pull back to a designated perimeter, and Hamas will release the remaining hostages.
