Hamas has released two American hostages held captive since the war in Gaza began on Oct. 7 following mediation efforts by Qatar. Israel continues to pummel the Gaza Strip with airstrikes while the border crossing between Egypt and Gaza has opened to allow limited humanitarian aid to reach the besieged Palestinians.

An Israel Defense Forces spokesperson said Saturday the families of 210 kidnapped civilians have been informed that their relatives are held hostage by Hamas. The update comes as Israel enters the 15th day of its war since Hamas terrorists infiltrated the country on October 17 and savagely killed as many as 1,400 Israelis, taking some captives back to Gaza.

A source with knowledge of the release confirmed to Fox News that the two American hostages, a mother and her daughter, were released 'on humanitarian grounds' following Qatari mediation efforts. IDF also said that more than 550 rockets launched by the terror groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad have misfired and killed innocent civilians in Gaza. Israel has urged Palestinian civilians to move south, away from military targets in the northern Gaza Strip.
