"Biden Vows to Stop Hamas as Airstrikes Escalate in Gaza"

Hamas claims to have released two American hostages as a result of Qatari mediation, aiming to refute claims made by the Biden administration. Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have intensified, with the death toll surpassing 4,000 Palestinians and 1,400 Israelis. US President Joe Biden expressed support for Israel and Ukraine, linking Hamas and Russian President Vladimir Putin as threats to neighboring democracies. The US Navy intercepted Houthi cruise missiles potentially targeting Israel, while rockets were fired at Israel from southern Lebanon. The humanitarian situation in Gaza worsens, with hospitals at risk of running out of fuel.
