After Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would have good news about the hostages today or tomorrow, Israeli officials familiar with the details rushed to temper expectations. 'Netanyahu meant to say that we're working hard, and if there's no deal today, we're not giving up,' they said. 'We're pressuring Hamas and also Witkoff, and hoping for good news. He meant the near future, not today or tomorrow - it was a figure of speech.'
