More hostages released on final day of ceasefire between Isarel-Hamas as efforts continue to extend truce 이•하마스 휴전 엿새째, 이스라엘 인질 10명 석방 이틀 추가 연장될 수도 We start with the latest developments in Gaza. More hostages have been released on the sixth day of the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. Mediators are pushing for another extension of the truce that’s set to expire on Wednesday. Bae Eun-ji has the latest. With the extended ceasefire in Gaza set to expire early Thursday, an Israeli official has reportedly said it could possibly be extended by another two to three days. Citing an unnamed Israeli official involved in the negotiating process, Reuters reported that there are still women and children being held by Hamas to cover at least two more days based on the rate of releases so far. This comes as negotiators including Qatar, Egypt and the U.S. continue to work toward another potential extension of the pause in fighting. “We’re hopeful that the truce can be extended. But as I said in the (Security) Council, this is all in the hands of Hamas. The Israelis have said if they continue to release ten hostages a day, they will extend by a day. So it truly is it is in their hands. But I do think there is a potential for that, and we’re actively working to extend the deal.“ The Israeli military has said a new group of 10 Israelis, 4 Thai nationals, and 2 Israeli-Russians were released late Wednesday local time, from the Gaza Strip. The hostages were handed over to the Red Cross by Hamas. Israel is also set to release 30 Palestinian women and children. Over the first five days of the truce, which began last Friday --Hamas released 81 hostages --and Israel freed 180 Palestinians from prison, mainly women and minors. Meanwhile, Hamas has claimed a 10-month-old hostage, who’s believed to be the youngest captive, was killed during Israeli bombing. The militant group said he was killed along with his four-year-old brother and their mother. Israel, which has been accusing Hamas of using civilians as human shields, said it is assessing the claim.
