Hamas has stated that Edan Alexander, a 20-year-old Israeli-American and the last known living American hostage in Gaza, will be released soon. Alexander was abducted during the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack and has been held captive since then. His release is reportedly part of ongoing negotiations aimed at establishing a ceasefire, reopening border crossings, and resuming humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza. The announcement marks a significant development in efforts to resolve the ongoing conflict and address the humanitarian crisis in the region. Alexander's release could pave the way for further diplomatic progress.
