Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office confirms the successful mediation of a deal with Hamas to transfer medicine to the hostages shortly after Qatar first announced the agreement.
Netanyahu “conveys his appreciation to all those who helped during the process,” says a statement from his office, adding that Israel will see to it that the medications reach their destination.
