Here's the latest

• All of the 20 remaining living hostages in Gaza have been freed from Hamas captivity and returned to Israel after two years of war. The bodies of 28 deceased hostages remain in Gaza but are meant to be returned by Hamas under the terms of the US-brokered ceasefire deal.

• As part of the agreement, the release of 250 Palestinian prisoners serving long and life sentences is now underway, as is the release of more than 1,700 Palestinian detainees from Gaza held by Israel without charge since the Hamas-led attacks on October 7, 2023.

• US President Donald Trump is addressing Israel’s parliament now, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described him in his own speech as the “greatest friend” Israel has ever had. You can watch Trump’s remarks in the livestream above.

• Trump will head to Egypt later, where leaders from more than 20 countries will join a summit on Gaza’s future.
