Hamas militants yesterday handed over four captive female Israeli soldiers to the Red Cross in Gaza City after parading them in front of a crowd. Israel was set to release 200 Palestinian prisoners or detainees later in the day as part of the fragile ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

Hamas militants handed over four Israeli women hostages to the Red Cross in a prisoner swap after parading them on a stage at a square in Gaza on Saturday. The four, all Israeli soldiers dressed in military fatigues, had been held captive in the Palestinian territory since Hamas seized them during their attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.
