Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Hostage tally: The return of 10 Israeli and two Thai hostages from Gaza on Tuesday leaves 161 hostages in the enclave, based on Israel\u2019s latest tally.<\/p>\n

Israel released another 30 Palestinian prisoners. An additional 10 Israeli hostages are set to be released Wednesday. U. S. role: The U. S. is pressing Israel to change tactics and fight a more targeted war in Gaza to better protect civilians.<\/p>\n

Secretary of State Antony Blinken is set to make his third trip to the region since Hamas’s attack. A group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered outside President Biden\u2019s hotel in Denver, where he earlier attended a fundraiser.<\/p>\n

Cease-fire talks: Efforts were under way to further extend the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas. Economic toll: The war with Hamas will cost Israel about $53 billion between 2023 and 2025, according to forecasts from Israel\u2019s central bank.<\/p>\n

Just over half of that amount is for increased defense spending. Humanitarian aid: The U. S. delivered 54,000 pounds of medical supplies and food to Egypt for civilians in Gaza on Tuesday, the first of three shipments planned over the coming days. A United Nations agency said aid reached its shelters in northern Gaza this week for the first time since the war began.<\/p>\n
