SYDNEY, Nov 25 ― Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said today a truce in the Israel-Hamas war marked “important progress” in the conflict, as he welcomed the release of hostages by Palestinian group Hamas.
Hamas fighters released 24 hostages yesterday during the first day of the war's first ceasefire after guns fell silent in the Gaza Strip for the first time in seven weeks.
“Australia welcomes the release of hostages and the pause in hostilities to allow humanitarian access to Gaza,” Albanese said on social media platform X.

“Today’s developments represent important progress and Australia welcomes them.”
Australia's government has previously urged a pause in hostilities and has strongly criticised Hamas, while calling on Israel to exercise restraint to minimise civilian casualties.
“We have consistently called for all hostages to be released, for the protection of civilian lives and for steps towards a sustainable ceasefire and a long-term, enduring peace,” Albanese said on X.
