This is the best summary I could come up with:
A third group of Gaza Strip hostages, including a 4-year-old American girl whose parents were killed in the Hamas raids on Israel, was freed on Sunday, raising the prospect more captives could be set free and a fragile truce extended.
With both Israel and Hamas poised to resume fighting at a moment’s notice, a collapse of the agreement might have quickly led to a resumption of the hostilities that have already killed thousands of people.
On Friday, after protracted negotiations involving Qatar and the United States, Israel and Hamas paused the fighting for four days to allow the hostages to be released and food and other supplies to enter devastated Gaza neighborhoods.
For residents of Gaza, struggling to find food, water, fuel and medical care, the deal offered hope that basic supplies would again be allowed across borders blockaded by Israel and Egypt.
In scattered interviews before the truce took hold, people in Gaza said they were burning cardboard to cook what little food they had left and filtering nonpotable water through clothing in an attempt to clean it.
Television images showed people lining the road outside an air base in southern Israel, waving flags and cheering as the convoy of minibuses carrying 12 of the freed hostages made its way inside.
