In the sixth hostage swap since the ceasefire began on January 19, three Israeli hostages will be freed in exchange for 369 Palestinians held by Israel. This release follows tensions between Hamas and Israel regarding the ceasefire terms. The hostages, taken during the October 7 attacks, are to be released after almost 500 days in captivity. Previous swaps have released 21 hostages and over 730 Palestinian prisoners. The negotiations remain delicate, with potential resumption of conflict if terms are not adhered to.
