To hold off the ground troops.
So now we know why Biden sent them $100 million in “humanitarian” aid

Stalling they often call for a truce to rearm or to relocate. .
Those two were relatives of an MSNBC host who announced it on air. Maybe a PR move or maybe State Dept or IDF had a hand in their release.
Threaten to cut Qatar off the international financial system and all hamas will magically appear.

Israeli media identified them as Judith Raanan, 59, and Natalie Raanan, 17, who are dual Israeli-American citizens. Authorities have notified their family of their pending return to Israel via Egypt.

Gonna have to sew Mom and kid up after what the feral savages did to them.
I don’t want to appear stupid but why has anybody made Iran an offer they can’t refuse?
The US announced special forces units are in Israel to help with rescue operations. A public announcement like that has never happened before. The US has two carrier groups building up off the coast of Gaza, when it is rare for the US to have two carrier groups in the Mediterranean. This could be the first time Israel and the US fight alongside each other, what every nation in the Middle East wants to avoid.
What this might accomplish is slowing down direct US involvement in Gaza and supposedly put some pressure on Israel. The more US and foreign hostages are released, the less US special forces have reason to go into Gaza. It also makes Qatar look a little better as a mediator.
In my mind none of this matters. Israel will act regardless of outside political maneuvering or what the press reports.
Joe Biden used the seal tactics he learned when at the US Naval Academy, at the same time he was tutoring Roger Staubach in how to be a Hall of Fame QB. He acquired the appropriate clothing and weaponry whilst on his brief mid-east visit....piloted a brand-new stealth helicopter to the hostage location, slit the throats of 163 Hamas guards, then spirited the two away in an 18-wheeler he stole.
No water or food for Gaza until hostages are released.
