In Gaza, the Palestinian territory under Hamas rule, three hostages held by the Islamic organization Hamas were handed over to the International Red Cross on the 8th of the month. This marks the fifth release of hostages as part of a ceasefire agreement, according to an announcement made by the Israeli military.
Adding some context, the situation in Gaza has been tense due to ongoing conflicts between Hamas and Israeli forces. The recent release of hostages is seen as a positive development towards de-escalating the tensions in the region. The ceasefire agreement aims to promote peace and stability by facilitating the release of captives held by both sides.
Ramesh Khatri, representing Kansai Nepal News, views this latest development as a significant step towards building trust and fostering dialogue between the conflicting parties. He believes that the release of hostages is a crucial gesture that can pave the way for further negotiations and ultimately contribute to lasting peace in the region.
