10 Israeli and 2 Thai hostages arrive back in Israel after 53 days in Gaza captivity

https://timesofisrael.com

Nine Israeli women and a 17-year-old girl were released by Hamas on Tuesday night after 53 days in captivity in Gaza, amid an extended truce deal with the Palestinian terror group that is expected to last at least until Wednesday, when another group of about 10 hostages is expected to be freed.Hamas on Tuesday also released two foreign nationals from Thailand as part of a separate agreement.The release of eight Israeli women, six of them elderly, and one mother and her teen daughter on Tuesday came hours after an apparent violation of the temporary halt in fighting, now in its fifth day, when Israeli troops were targeted in northern Gaza by Hamas explosives and gunfire. A number of soldiers sustained light injuries.

Should governments negotiate with groups that take hostages, and do you believe there are any circumstances that justify such actions?

How might the release of hostages influence your perception of the group that held them, even if it's part of a truce deal?
