Hamas returns remains of hostage held for 11 years as attention deepens around postwar planning

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : Trump has suggested that Syria could join the Abraham Accords, normalization deals with Israel that expanded last week to include Kazakhstan, but that possibility feels far off.
42% : Israel has rejected Turkish participation and on Monday, the United Arab Emirates announced that it had ruled out joining for now.
38% : Hamas returned the remains of Hadar Goldin, an Israeli soldier it murdered and kidnapped in 2014, to Israel on Sunday, bringing the number of hostages whose remains it still holds in Gaza to four.
36% : Jared Kushner, Trump's Jewish son-in-law who has played a key role in negotiations toward ending the war, is back in Israel, where he met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday.
33% : All four were killed when Hamas attacked southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
28% : Trump's plan calls for Israel to fully withdraw over time, but the United States has so far fallen short of convening an "International Stabilization Force" that would run Gaza and allow for its reconstruction.
