"I really have the chance to dream", says Maayan Zin, whose two daughters, 15-year-old Dafna and 8-year-old Ela, have been held captive in Gaza since the Hamas attack of October 7th, and whose former husband Noam Elyakim was murdered in Kibbutz Nahal Oz that same day. "Even if it's not all my sunshine, it's some kind of ray of light", she adds after news that a hostage deal was struck between Israel and Hamas. Israel and Hamas said Wednesday they had agreed on a four-day truce in the Gaza war during which the Palestinian militant group would free at least 50 of the hostages they took in their deadly October 7 attack.
