Hamas releases three more hostages to Red Cross in Gaza

Hamas has released three more hostages to Red Cross representatives in Gaza. The men were abducted during the October 7 attacks on Israel 16 months ago. The handover took place in the Nuseirat refugee camp. Earlier on the same day, two other hostages were freed in Rafah. Long-term captive Hisham al-Sayed is also expected to be released soon. This release is part of a hostages-for-prisoners swap under a ceasefire agreement that began on January 19. On the same day, 602 Palestinian prisoners will be released from Israeli jails.
