25:36Now PlayingA Gaza ceasefire in the 15-month-long brutal war between Israel and Hamas went into effect on Sunday, paving the way for the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails.
Three Israeli women are expected to be set free Sunday, along with an estimated 100 Palestinian prisoners. No American is on the initial hostage release list provided by Hamas, nor is two-year-old Kfir Bibas − the red-headed baby taken in the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks who has garnered global attention.
