Israeli Hostages Released from Gaza Strip as Part of Cease-Fire Deal, Biden Asked About Conditions on U.S. Aid to Israel

Two Israeli hostages were released from the Gaza Strip on Friday as part of a four-day cease-fire deal brokered by Egypt and the United Nations. President Joe Biden was asked his response to calls from some Democrats to place conditions on U.S. aid to Israel, but declined to categorically write it off. The cease-fire deal calls for a halt to hostilities and the exchange of prisoners and remains of combatants, as well as the easing of restrictions on the movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza.
