<h1>Hamas to Release More Israeli Hostages Amid Tensions; Mediators Work to Sustain Gaza Ceasefire and Aid Entry</h1> Hamas announced plans to release more Israeli hostages, potentially easing tensions that threatened the Gaza Strip ceasefire. Egyptian and Qatari mediators are working to resolve disputes over truce terms, including the entry of aid into Gaza. While Hamas plans to release three hostages, Israel, backed by U.S. President Donald Trump, has threatened military action if releases stall. The ceasefire, brokered by Egypt and Qatar, faces challenges, particularly with Trump's controversial proposal to relocate Palestinians, which Israel supports but Palestinians and Arab nations reject. The conflict, initiated by Hamas in 2023, has resulted in significant casualties and displacement in Gaza.
