More Israelis and Palestinians released from captivity as truce extended

Hamas released an additional 11 Israelis held prisoner in Gaza on Monday in exchange for 33 Palestinians who were freed from Israeli jails, bringing the total number of released captives to 69 Israelis and 150 Palestinians.

The latest transfer comes as Qatar announced a two-day extension of the truce between Hamas and Israel in Gaza, which will see more prisoners released from both sides.

The newly released Israeli captives, all dual nationals, include three French nationals, two Germans and six Argentinians.

On the Palestinian side, the freed prisoners include three women and 30 children.
