Edan Alexander, a 21-year-old dual U.S.-Israeli citizen, was released by Hamas on Monday after he spent more than 580 days held captive in Gaza.

Edan Alexander, the last living American held hostage by Hamas, was freed Monday, the terror group said — more than 19 months after he was taken captive.

Hamas said they were releasing Edan Alexander, an American-Israeli soldier, as a gesture of good will towards the Trump administration.

The parents of American-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander, who was freed Monday after being held captive by Hamas in Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023, said they always maintained hope he'd be released.

CAIRO (Reuters) -Talks between Hamas and the U.S. administration on a ceasefire in Gaza and the entry of humanitarian aid to the besieged enclave are underway, a senior Palestinian official familiar with the discussions told Reuters on Sunday.
