BofA: Investors pour into bonds, pull back from crypto
Investing.com -- Edan Alexander, a 21-year-old Israeli-American soldier, is expected to be released in Gaza, as per a senior Hamas official’s statement on Sunday. Alexander, born and raised in New Jersey, is currently serving in the Israeli Army and is believed to be the last surviving American hostage held by the Palestinian militant group.
Although the senior Hamas official did not provide a specific time for the release, various media reports said it would likely occur on Tuesday. The release of Alexander is seen as a goodwill gesture towards the Trump administration, with the hope that this action might encourage Washington to persuade Israel to end the war in Gaza.
The expected release comes ahead of U.S. President Trump’s scheduled visit to the Middle East this week.
