Hamas is expected to start releasing Israeli hostages now.

It's handing over 20 hostages over the next two hours - followed by Israel handing over nearly 2000 Palestinian prisoners and detainees. 

The US president is expected to arrive in Tel Aviv very soon, and claims the war is over in Gaza and the ceasefire will hold.

Reuters correspondent Alexander Cornwell says people could start arriving very soon - and that the Red Cross will be there to collect them.
