Hamas released three Israeli hostages—Eli Sharabi, Ohad Ben Ami, and Or Levy—on Saturday as part of a prisoner swap deal.
The handover took place in Gaza under heavy security, with each hostage flanked by armed Hamas fighters.
Unlike previous releases, the hostages showed no visible signs of relief or emotion as they were made to hold up release certificates for the cameras.
In return, Israel freed a number of Palestinian detainees as part of the negotiated exchange.
The highly choreographed event has drawn global attention, highlighting the tense and fragile nature of ongoing negotiations.

Hamas’s armed wing, an Israeli hostage—identified by local media as Elkana Bohbot—pleads for help, directly invoking former U.S. President Donald Trump. Speaking from captivity in Gaza, Bohbot begs a friend to take his wife to the White House and ask Trump to secure his release. The video, which shows the hostage in a small room speaking on a landline, is the third such clip of him since March. It highlights the deepening psychological warfare in the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict. While the authenticity of the call remains unverified, the footage has ignited shock and concern, as fears for the hostages' safety intensify amid continued Israeli airstrikes.

Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem delivers a fierce warning to Israel amid escalating tensions and ongoing violations of the ceasefire agreement. With over 4,000 lives lost in Lebanon since the conflict reignited, Qassem makes it clear: “We have options — and we fear nothing.”
In this powerful address, he underscores Hezbollah’s readiness to act, condemns Israeli expansionist ambitions, and calls out U.S. interference in Lebanese affairs. As the ceasefire teeters on the edge, Lebanon’s resistance signals that its patience has limits.

Netanyahu Vs. Trump: Israel is preparing a possible solo military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities, even as former U.S. President Donald Trump urges diplomacy. In a bold move that could reshape Middle East dynamics, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is signaling that Israel will act alone if necessary. Trump has reportedly told Bibi he prefers a diplomatic route with Tehran — but Israel insists Iran's nuclear program must be dismantled now.

At least 58 people are dead and more than 120 injured after a U.S. airstrike hit Yemen’s Ras Isa oil terminal. A second strike killed first responders attempting to rescue survivors, prompting Yemen to call the attack a war crime. Civilian infrastructure, including oil facilities and aid workers, were targeted. While Washington claims the site was used by Houthi forces, Yemen strongly denies this and accuses the U.S. of supporting Israel’s war in Gaza. As President Trump escalates strikes across Yemen, the region edges closer to all-out war.

Hamas has declared it is ready to release all hostages—but only under a full ceasefire and Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, rejecting any partial or temporary truce. The group blasted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s proposed phased plan as a “deceptive war tactic” aimed at prolonging the conflict. As diplomatic channels scramble, the statement raises tensions and casts uncertainty over hopes for a breakthrough in negotiations.

Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi issued a fiery warning, urging all Arab nations to arm every Palestinian in defense against what he calls the U.S.-enabled “genocidal war” on Gaza. He claims Washington is supplying Israel with weapons while turning a blind eye to mass civilian deaths, medical facility destruction, and Gaza's forced displacement. As Rafah faces encirclement, al-Houthi warns Egypt’s national security is at risk. The Houthis blame Arab regimes for past disarmament and call for immediate military support to Palestinian resistance groups. Israel, backed by the U.S., continues strikes across Gaza and Lebanon.

Israel launched airstrikes on the southern Gaza tent city of Mawasi—an area it previously labeled a “humanitarian safe zone”—killing over 20 people. Footage shows rescue crews battling fires as tents filled with displaced Palestinians went up in flames. Mawasi, once a refuge for tens of thousands fleeing the war, has now become a symbol of devastation. The Israeli military has not commented on the strike. Officials warn that repeated attacks on civilian shelters are turning Gaza’s safe zones into graveyards.

Putin publicly praised Hamas for what he called a “humanitarian act” after the release of Israeli-Russian captives. Speaking directly to freed hostages at the Kremlin, Putin thanked Hamas’ political wing, crediting long-standing Russian-Palestinian ties for the release. The remarks have sparked global outrage and are expected to anger Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Trump, both of whom have taken hardline stances against Hamas. The development comes amid growing international scrutiny of the Gaza war and Israel’s military actions.
