Hamas has confirmed the release of three Israeli hostages, Sagui Dekel-Chen, Sasha Troufanov, and Iair Horn, scheduled for Saturday, contributing to ongoing ceasefire discussions with Israel. This decision comes as the future of the ceasefire remains uncertain, with both sides addressing the implications of the hostage situation. Additionally, an American citizen held by Hamas is also set to be freed. Recent reports of the treatment of hostages during captivity have raised concerns, while the Red Cross and UN rights office emphasize the need for humane treatment of all detainees. As negotiations progress, both Hamas and Israel have indicated a willingness to adhere to the terms of the ceasefire, with Hamas announcing it will continue the release of hostages as planned.
