Hamas official says hostages' release to begin on Monday morning

A significant development is on the horizon as a top Hamas official announced that the release of 48 Israeli hostages will commence on Monday morning. This release, which includes both living and deceased individuals, is part of a deal involving the exchange for 250 prisoners held by Israel. Additionally, Egypt is set to host an international summit focused on the Gaza war agreement, with over 20 world leaders, including US President Donald Trump and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, in attendance. This moment is crucial as it could pave the way for further negotiations and peace efforts in the region.
