By Brett Gubitosi
A senior Qatari official claimed he is "optimistic" that all hostages being held by the Hamas terrorist organized will be freed, according to the Times of Israel.
“The release took place within a framework that confirms the positive intention to release the hostages,” Majed Al-Ansari told the German newspaper Die Welt. “We are optimistic that the hostages, especially the civilians, will be released very soon.”
His statement comes after the release of two American hostages, Judith and Natalie Raanan.
Additionally, Hamas allegedly offered to release two more hostages for "humanitarian reasons" to Israel, but the nation declined to receive them.
