In a bold statement, U.S. President Donald Trump declared that Houthi militants have halted their attacks on American ships and interests following a 50-day barrage.

Hamas has released Edan Alexander, a 21-year-old U.S.-Israeli soldier taken hostage during the October 2023 Tel Aviv attack, marking the return of the last known living American hostage. His release comes ahead of former President Donald Trump’s visit to the Middle East, signaling possible ceasefire negotiations. Trump’s envoy praised the gesture and urged Hamas to release the bodies of four other Americans. The move, facilitated by Qatar and Egypt, is seen as a step toward peace in a conflict that has left over 52,800 Palestinians dead since Israel’s counteroffensive began.

As Hamas signals the release of US-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander, Israeli hostage families staged a powerful demonstration in Tel Aviv’s Hostages Square. With Donald Trump expected to visit the region, families are making urgent pleas for him to push Prime Minister Netanyahu into finalizing a comprehensive hostage deal. Yehuda Cohen, father of hostage Nimrod Cohen, emotionally demanded Trump’s intervention: “Force Netanyahu to act.” With rising pressure and international attention, the families hope their public appeals can turn political will into life-saving action for their loved ones still held in Gaza.
