"Biden's Warning: Challenges Ahead as Hostages Released in Israel-Hamas Deal"

President Joe Biden hailed the initial release of two dozen women and children by Hamas as a sign of progress in the Israel-Hamas deal, but warned of the challenges ahead in securing the release of the remaining hostages, including American citizens. While more details about the next round of hostages are expected to be unveiled soon, it remains unclear if Americans are included. The deal involves the release of 50 hostages for 150 Palestinian prisoners, and the arrival of aid trucks in Gaza. Biden emphasized the trauma suffered by the hostages and expressed the need for healing. He also faces political challenges in securing aid for Israel and addressing calls for a cease-fire from progressive Democrats.
