* A fragile four-day truce begun at 7am local time (12am ET and 5am GMT)
* The 13 Israeli and 12 Thai hostages are the first of 50 expected to be freed
The first group of hostages have been released from Gaza after 48 days of captivity as part of a truce deal between Israel and Hamas that went into effect this morning.
Thirteen Israeli women and children and 12 Thai hostages, who were kidnapped and taken into the territory by the terror group in its October 7 attack on Israel, were finally freed today after an agonising wait.
Israeli media reported the hostages had been transferred by Hamas to the Red Cross, then on to the Egyptians, before crossing into Egypt. They will next be given to the IDF who will transfer them by helicopter to a hospital in central Israel.

Stolen elections have consequences. Now we have wars in Ukraine and Israel. This is not a coincidence.
German newspaper BILD reports that Scholz and Biden are hamstringing Ukraine on purpose.
