Two more hostages freed by Hamas
Two more hostages captured by Hamas during an attack on Israel more than two weeks ago have been released. The two elderly Israeli citizens were freed for what was called "humanitarian reasons," after mediation by Qatar and Egypt. Meantime, the U.S. is asking Israel to delay a ground invasion of Gaza to allow time to negotiate the release of more hostages, amid concerns the escalating war could spark a wider conflict in the Middle East, putting American lives at risk.
