White House officials consider separate deal to free U.S. hostages
(JNS) -- The Biden administration has talked about negotiating a unilateral deal for the release of five Americans held hostage by Hamas in Gaza, NBC News reported on Monday.
The talks wouldn’t include Israel and would take place via Qatari mediators, two current senior U.S. officials and two former ones told NBC.
One of the current officials called it a “very real option.”
