Breakthrough as Trump tours region

The armed wing of Palestinian group Hamas handed over a US-Israeli hostage held in Gaza since October 2023 on Monday, ahead of a regional visit by US President Donald Trump.

“The [Ezzedine] Al-Qassam Brigades have just released the Zionist soldier and American citizen Edan Alexander, following contacts with the US administration, as part of the efforts undertaken by mediators to achieve a ceasefire,” Hamas said in a statement.

Israel’s military said he was back inside Israel to be “reunited with his family”.
