At least 60 Palestinians who had been stranded in Egypt since October 7 have gathered at the Rafah border crossing hoping to return home during the pause in fighting.
President Joe Biden said we can be thankful for the families being “reunited with loved ones” following the initial group of hostages released as a part of a four-day truce between Israel and Hamas.
The armed wing of Palestinian militant group Hamas said on Monday they told Qatari mediators that the group is ready to release up to 70 women and children held in Gaza in return for a five-day truce.
