Negotiations to free remaining captives to begin on 16th day of potential ceasefire deal; talks advanced after 'tense' meeting between Netanyahu, Trump envoy, officials tell ToI

Hamas is expected to release 33 hostages during the first phase of an emerging ceasefire agreement being finalized by negotiators in Doha, two Israeli officials said.

The proposed three-phase deal would begin with the gradual release of 33 hostages—including women, children, elderly individuals and wounded civilians—over a 42-day period, in exchange for potentially hundreds of Palestinian women and children detained by Israel.
