Israel and Hamas Complete Fifth Hostage-Prisoner Exchange Under Ceasefire Deal

Israel is concerned about the appearance of the released captives, as the images during Saturday’s hostage handover have drawn condemnation from Israel.
Hamas has released a total of 16 Israeli hostages as part of the first phase of the ceasefire agreement, of a total of 33 promised at staggered intervals during this stage.
The three men released appeared thin, weak and pale, and in worse condition than the 18 hostages who had previously been freed under the truce agreed last month.
The exchange occurs amid uproar over a proposal by U.S. President Donald Trump to clear out Gaza of its inhabitants and for the United States to take over the Palestinian territory.
