Hamas Says 2 American Hostages Released

Hamas militants freed an American woman and her daughter almost two weeks after they were taken captive during the group’s deadly raid on southern Israel, the Israeli government said.

The two were identified as Judith Tai Raanan and Natalie Shoshana Raanan, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office and US government officials. They were handed over to Israeli forces at the border of the Gaza Strip and were on their way to meet family.
