More than 100 hostages held in the Gaza Strip have been released. Estimates of the total number held in Gaza have shifted over the course of the war. As of Thursday, 143 hostages remain in Gaza, according to numbers provided by Israel, but officials have not given the full basis for their estimates.
More than 13,300 people have been killed in Gaza and 35,180 wounded since the war began, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. The death count is incomplete because health officials can’t tally the dead at two of the enclave’s large hospitals or account for bodies under the rubble. At least 1,200 people were killed in Israel during the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas.
Blinken said two American citizens were among at least six injured in Thursday’s deadly shooting at a bus stop in Jerusalem. He offered no further details but condemned Hamas, which has claimed responsibility, and called the incident an “appalling terrorist attack.”
