Senior foreign affairs correspondent Greg Palkot reports on the ‘terrible’ conditions facing Hamas hostages and speaks to the sister of hostage survivor Romi Gonen.

Hamas announced on Thursday it will free Israeli hostages as originally planned, according to The Associated Press.

The move comes days after President Donald Trump issued an ultimatum to the terrorist group threatening to end the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip if they did not release the hostages by Saturday, adding that he would “let hell break out.”
