Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu won cabinet approval for the first phase of a cease-fire agreement with Hamas. President Trump said hostages held in Gaza would be released early next week.

On 8 June, Argamani, together with Shlomi Ziv, Andrey Kozlov, and Almog Meir Jan, was rescued at the Nuseirat refugee camp in the middle of the Gaza Strip. The rescue coincided with Yaakov's birthday, making it a much-celebrated reunion. Argamani was also able to see her mother, who died three weeks after her rescue.

Hamas released all 20 of the remaining living Israeli hostages Monday, Israeli military said. Meanwhile, Israel released nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and detainees as part of the cease-fire deal brokered by US president Donald Trump to end the war.

Israel delayed aid to Gaza, citing slow hostage recovery by Hamas. Meanwhile, Hamas resumed control, executing men in public. President Trump supports this temporary order, despite Israeli demands for disarmament.

Under the first phase of the new cease-fire deal, all of the living hostages in Gaza are expected to be released in the next 24 hours in exchange for about 2,000 Palestinians imprisoned by Israel.

Israel has begun releasing Palestinian prisoners and detainees on Oct. 13, in agreement with the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.

Israel said Sunday that it expects all of the living hostages held in the Gaza Strip to be released within hours.

CAIRO/JERUSALEM -- Hamas freed the last living Israeli hostages from Gaza on Monday under a ceasefire deal, and Israel sent home busloads of Palestinian detainees, as U.S. President Donald Trump declared the end of the two-year-long war that has upended the broader Middle East.
