I just saw on the news that 2 hostages have been released by Hamas. I hope more of them will be released. I wonder how that was accomplished?

Hamas declared that the two American women were released for "humanitarian reasons", they still have more than 200 hostages, many are kids, so there is something behind this.

@Aquitaine24 You wonder why those two women only, they are not the only tourists in the hands of Hamas.

I also want to know how Hamas did release two of their hostages as well. Hopefully more hostages will be released soon.

The captors apparently did so for humanitarian reasons. It is a 59 year old mother and 17 year old daughter.

Yes. For a real humanitarian act, release the grandmother was celebrating her birthday.
