remaining living hostages released by Hamas under the terms of
the cease-fire deal.

Rachel Abrams speaks to families of those hostages, and to other
Israelis, about the long-anticipated moment, and Isabel Kershner,
a Times reporter who covers Israel and Palestine, discusses why
the hostages have been such a crucial factor in efforts to end
the war.
