Liri Albag, 19, is one of about 100 hostages believed to remain held in the enclave nearly 15 months after the Hamas-led attacks on Israel.

The family of 19-year-old Liri Albag, an Israeli soldier held captive by Hamas since October 7, 2023, said she looks "broken and shattered" ina recent video released by the militant group on Saturday.

Israel and Hamas agreed to a deal to halt fighting in Gaza and swap Israeli hostages for Palestinian prisoners, an official briefed on the deal said on Wednesday, opening the way to a possible end to a devastating 15-month war.
