3 Israeli hostages released by Hamas now in Israel
Israeli television has shown images of three hostages being handed over to the Red Cross as part of a ceasefire deal that pauses a 15-month-old war that has brought devastation and seismic political change to the Middle East. The Israeli military said the hostages then made their way in vehicles to the Israeli Defence Forces and Shin Bet security officials in Gaza, before being transported to southern Israel.
