Hamas scrambles to find hostages amid fears dozens of captives are lost in Gaza

Reuters

Hamas is scrambling to find more hostages to extend its truce with Israel amid growing concerns the militant group does not know the whereabouts of dozens of captives.

On the first evening of the extended temporary truce, 10 more Israelis and two Thai citizens held by Hamas were released. Teenager Mia Leimberg, 17, was the youngest of those freed. She was released alongside her mother, Gabriela Leimberg, 59, and her aunt Clara Marman, 63. Two of her uncles, one of whom is Clara’s husband, remain in Gaza.
