Ninety-eight hostages remain in Gaza, including Israelis and foreigners, civilians and soldiers, men, women, two children, and the elderly. Mediators have presented a final draft of a hostage release and Gaza ceasefire deal to Israel and Hamas. The timeline of events includes hostage releases, truces, and failed ceasefire talks. Families of hostages have been campaigning for their loved ones' release, holding protests and meeting with world leaders. US President-elect Donald Trump has threatened consequences if the hostages are not released before his inauguration. Progress has been made in ceasefire negotiations, but a deal has not yet been reached.
