Talks to release Israeli hostages

Israeli Prime Minister says "we are making progress" on the release of hostages snatched by Hamas on 7 October and taken to Gaza.

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says "we are making progress" on the release of hostages snatched by Hamas on 7 October and taken to Gaza. It comes as Hamas says the group is close to reaching a "truce agreement" with Israel, raising hopes of a pause in hostilities in Gaza.
