French President Emmanuel Macron has welcomed the release of three Franco-Israeli minors held by the Islamist group Hamas. They were among a group of 11 people released late Monday night in exchange for 33 Palestinian prisoners. This came after the two sides agreed to a two-day extension of a truce deal.
Israel said late Monday that 11 more hostages released in the Gaza Strip had arrived safely, just hours after the announcement that a truce between Israel and Hamas in Gaza will be extended by two days.
