The brief respite from fighting in the Gaza Strip is expected to end in less than 24 hours. Pressure is mounting on both Israel and Hamas to extend the truce beyond its expiration tomorrow. Qatar has said it is working with both parties to ensure the fourth hostage-prisoner swap proceeds without any delay later today. 39 Israelis, along with 17 Thais, one Filipino and one Israeli-Russian have been freed since the truce started last Friday. Israel has so far released around 117 Palestinian prisoners.
