Israel-Hamas ceasefire extended by two days
A four-day ceasefire, which was due to expire Monday between Israel and Hamas, has been extended by two days. Israel offered to keep the ceasefire in place if Palestinian militants free more hostages. So far, 62 of the roughly 240 hostages captured by Hamas on October 7 have been released in exchange for Israeli-held Palestinian prisoners.
