The last Israeli hostages held by Hamas have been returned to Israel, with images showing their relief and disorientation. A total of 20 hostages, captives since the October 7, 2023 attack, were handed over to the Red Cross and then transferred to Israeli forces. Meanwhile, hundreds of Palestinian prisoners are arriving in Ramallah, with preparations underway for their medical assessments. The release is part of a broader ceasefire agreement, which also involves the imminent liberation of approximately 2,000 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for the hostages. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed a desire for peace, extending a hand to those seeking dialogue, and has refused to attend a Jewish festival due to religious commitments. U.S. President Donald Trump has hailed the event as a historic dawn for the Middle East, emphasizing that the conflict marks the end of an era of terror. Trump’s speech at the Knesset was marked by praise for Netanyahu and acknowledgment of his role in the peace process. The international community, including Hamas, has called for restraint to prevent further violence, with Hamas urging mediators to ensure Israel does not resume hostilities. The Israeli government is also preparing for the return of remaining hostages and the release of prisoners, with plans for a peace summit in Egypt involving Netanyahu, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, and U.S. officials. The situation remains tense, with ongoing negotiations, political statements, and public reactions highlighting the complex path toward peace in the region.
