Two U.S. hostages taken custody by Hamas have been released, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.
The two fell into the clutches of Hamas after the militants on Oct. 7 launched a surprise terror attack on Israel.
The surprise announcement came on the same day that the Israeli prime minister’s office reported that more than 200 Israelis were still being held captive and that at least 30 of them were under the age of 16.
