Katie Couric Instagram – In addition to Hamas freeing 20 hostages, Israel is set to release about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners to the West Bank and Gaza.
The United Nations said in a statement that “real progress” was being made delivering aid to Gaza as part of the ceasefire agreement but also that the scale of the destruction is “staggering”. As many as 197,000 buildings have been damaged or destroyed during the war, according to estimates in a damage analysis shared with ABC News.
The agency’s office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said, “The easing of restrictions on movement and access in multiple areas” had allowed them to deliver medical and emergency supplies. Additionally, cooking oil had entered the territory for the first time since March and tents, flour, frozen meat, and fresh fruit were making their way in as well.
