Hamas Says It Released American-Israeli Hostage

The Israeli military confirmed that Edan Alexander had been turned over to the Red Cross and was being brought to Israeli forces
-
DEIR AL-BALAH: An Israeli-American soldier held hostage for more than 19 months in the Gaza Strip was released Monday, Hamas said, in a goodwill gesture toward the Trump administration that could lay the groundwork for a new ceasefire with Israel.
The Israeli military confirmed that Edan Alexander had been turned over to the Red Cross and was being brought to Israeli forces.
Alexander was taken from his military base in southern Israel during Hamas' cross-border attack on October 7, 2023, which set off the war in Gaza. His release would be the first since Israel shattered an eight-week ceasefire with Hamas in March, unleashing fierce strikes on Gaza that have killed hundreds.
