Hamas Frees 2 Israeli Hostages, More Releases Likely Soon

An Israeli hospital said early Tuesday that two hostages released by Hamas were reunited with their families. The two women were freed for "compelling humanitarian" reasons following mediation by Qatar and Egypt, the Hamas' military wing said. They were taken to the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt, days after two American women, Judith Tai Raanan and her daughter Natalie Shoshana Raanan, were freed. This comes amid reports that Hamas will release another 50 hostages with dual citizenships but there is no confirmation yet.
