Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says there is “no way” Israel will halt its war in Gaza, even if a deal is reached to release more hostages.

Israeli officials said the military had launched an attack targeting Muhammad Sinwar, the brother of a leader killed last year.

Israeli American hostage Edan Alexander has crossed into Israel after his release by Hamas after fighting was paused in Gaza to allow safe passage, the Israeli military said, but there is no wider ceasefire.

For the first time since American-Israeli Edan Alexander's release by Hamas​, his family is speaking publicly about what their son went through.

Moshe Lavi, brother-in-law to a Hamas hostage, reacts to footage of Edan Alexander being freed from Hamas captivity, ongoing Israel-Hamas ceasefire talks and how his family is coping with his brother-in-law's long-term absence.

Edan Alexander was 19 when Hamas militants stormed the Israeli military base where the American-Israeli from New Jersey was a soldier and dragged him into the Gaza Strip.
