As part of a four-day truce, Hamas fighters released a second group of hostages, complying with an agreement for the exchange of Palestinian prisoners. Israeli prison authorities stated that 42 Palestinian inmates, including both males and females, would be freed, following the three-to-one ratio stipulated in the agreement. The release follows an initial exchange on the first day of the truce. The second day of the truce held with only minor disturbances, and the transfers are expected to continue. The truce also allows for a humanitarian convoy to bring much-needed aid to Gaza.
