Israel-Hamas: Gaza civilians, Israeli hostages to get urgent aid as new deal reached

Qatar and France have brokered a deal with Israel and the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas to deliver urgent medication to some 45 Israeli hostages held in Gaza in return for humanitarian and medical aid for the embattled enclave’s most vulnerable citizens.

The two countries said the aid would leave Qatar for Egypt on Wednesday before being taken across the Rafah border crossing.

This deal comes more than 100 days into a conflict that shows no signs of ending and has sparked tensions across the Middle East. It is the first since a weeklong cease-fire broke down in November.
