Thai nationals held captive by Hamas for 15 months return home

Hamas released three Israeli hostages in exchange for 183 Palestinian prisoners, with the handover occurring under tense conditions, as reported by multiple sources.
The three freed Israelis were among about 250 captives taken during the Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, according to official statements.
The ceasefire deal allows for the release of hostages and prisoners, with 16 living hostages and about 550 Palestinian prisoners released so far, as noted in the text.
The situation remains fragile, with the potential for renewed conflict if a lasting agreement is not reached by March, as indicated by various officials.
