"Israeli Hostage Sahar Baruch Dies in Botched IDF Rescue Mission in Gaza"

An Israeli hostage, Sahar Baruch, was killed during a failed rescue attempt by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in Gaza, with uncertainty surrounding whether he was killed by Israeli forces or Hamas. The IDF had previously accused Hamas of the murder. Two Israeli soldiers were severely injured in the operation. Negotiations for a second wave of hostage exchanges between Israel, the U.S., Qatar, Egypt, and Hamas are ongoing, with little progress made. Hamas has proposed an exchange of 120 Palestinian prisoners for 40 hostages, while Israel has partially withdrawn troops from Gaza, shifting to more targeted strikes.
