13 more Israeli hostages from Gaza have been released by Hamas.

Qatar's Foreign Ministry has confirmed that eight children and five women are among the 13 Israeli hostages released yesterday.

It says a further seven foreign nationals will also be released later.

Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Hamas said that 340 vehicles filled with humanitarian aid have entered the Gaza Strip since the ceasefire began on Friday.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman Daniel Hagari has told a news conference that there has been "significant progress" in the hostage release effort, which he said was underway.

Hamas’s attacks on 7 October killed 1,200 people, with about 240 taken hostage.

Since then, Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry says more than 14,500 people have been killed in Israel's retaliatory campaign.
