Twenty Thai nationals still held by Hamas after 10 freed

Thailand's foreign ministry said on Saturday that 20 Thai nationals were still being held by Hamas.

This comes after 10 Thai nationals were freed during Friday's exchange of captives held by Hamas and Palestinians from Israeli jails.

Those released included one woman, according to photos released by the ministry.

Earlier reports said around 12 Thais had been released. A source briefed on the negotiations told Reuters that their release was unrelated to a truce deal with Israel and followed a separate track of talks with Hamas mediated by Egypt and Qatar.
