ABC World - WOND

Luis Diaz Devesa/Getty Images(NEW YORK) -- Thousands of people have died and thousands more were injured after the militant group Hamas launched an unprecedented surprise attack on Israel on Oct. 7 and Israel retaliated with a bombing campaign and total siege of the neighboring Gaza Strip, leaving the region on the verge of all-out war.

At least 1,400 people have died, and 4,629 others have been injured in Israel, according to Israeli authorities. In Gaza, 5,087 people have died and 15,273 have been wounded, according to the Palestinian Health Authority.

Aid workers and officials fear that Israel's call for an evacuation of the northern part of Gaza is precipitating a humanitarian disaster as electricity and other supplies have been cut off in preparation for what appears to be an imminent ground offensive.

Humanitarian groups have urged Israel to call off the evacuation and agree to a cease-fire, even as the country has asserted a right to defend itself -- a right the United States endorses.

Here's how the news is developing. All times Eastern.

2 Israeli hostages released by Hamas, Israeli Hostage Center says

Two hostages have been released by Hamas, the Israeli Hostage Center confirmed.

The hostages are two elderly women who are both Israeli nationals, the center said. The released hostages are 85-year-old Yocheved Lifshitz and 79-year-old Nurit Cooper, both from the Nir Oz kibbutz, the center said.

The Red Cross said it helped transport the hostages out of Gaza Monday evening. The hostages have since arrived back in Israel, the hostage center said.

The Israeli military said Monday that at least 222 hostages were taken by Hamas since Oct. 7. Two American hostages, a mother and daughter, were released on Friday.

The Family Forum of the Missing and Hostages said in a statement, "Over 200 Israeli citizens are being held in deplorable conditions and have been waiting to return home for 17 days. We call on the Israeli government and world leaders to bring everyone home now."

Biden: 'We should have those hostages released and then we can talk'

President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter Monday if the U.S. is supporting a deal for hostages in exchange for a cease-fire.

Biden replied, "We should get -- we should have a cease-fire -- not a cease-fire -- we should have those hostages released, and then we can talk."

Top US priority is 'going after Hamas,' Kirby says

National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby was asked by ABC News whether there are competing goals between Israel and America, with Israel repeatedly saying its top priority is destroying Hamas and the U.S. saying its highest priority is the hostages.

At first, Kirby said America's top priority "is to make sure Israel has the tools and the capacity and the capabilities to go after Hamas terrorists, and to make sure humanitarian assistance flows in, and to make sure we can get innocent civilians who want to leave Gaza out."

When pressed on the discrepancy with Israel’s stated top goal, Kirby said, "We agree the top priority has got to be going after Hamas."

Kirby repeatedly declined to say if there's an effort from the U.S. and other countries to urge Israel to delay the ground invasion. Kirby said he would not speak for the Israeli Defense Forces or other countries, but that the U.S. has been communicating with Israel from the start about their intentions and goals.

UN experts urge Israel's lawyers to refuse authorizing acts that could be war crimes

United Nations experts said they're urging the lawyers advising Israeli forces "to refuse legal authorisation for acts that may amount to war crimes."

The lawyers' "advice about issues such as lawful targets of attack, the choice and use of weapons, and the means and methods of warfare is essential to the operational planning of military campaigns," the U.N. experts said in a statement Monday.

"Under international law, Israel has a right to self-defence, but its response must be proportionate and in full respect of the UN Charter and the rules that apply to the use of force in armed conflict," the experts said.

"If such lawyers approve actions that amount to massive human rights violations and war crimes, they may bear accomplice liability for those acts," the experts warned.

20 aid trucks cross into Gaza: UN

Twenty aid trucks crossed from Egypt to Gaza through the Rafah border crossing on Monday, according to the United Nations.

The Rafah border crossing was shut on Oct. 10 after it was hit by Israeli warplanes on the Palestinian side three times on Oct. 9 and 10.

After nearly two weeks of humanitarian conditions worsening by the day, the crossing briefly opened on Oct. 21 and Oct. 22, permitting a small amount of aid to enter Gaza. The U.N. said 34 trucks entered this weekend.

Stéphane Dujarric, spokesman for the U.N. secretary-general, called this only "a drop in the bucket."

"The number of trucks that usually went into Gaza every day was about 450 or so, and now we're seeing 20 or 30, and we're not seeing any fuel, which is a great concern," Dujarric said. "For the 14th consecutive day, Gaza remains under a full electricity blackout. The situation in hospital remains dire given the shortage of electricity, medicine, equipment and specialized personnel."

Israeli forces preparing for air, ground, sea operations

Israeli forces are "preparing thoroughly for the next step -- a multilateral operation in the air, ground and sea," Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said Monday.

To the soldiers, Gallant said in Hebrew, "Keep preparing for our operation, it will come soon."

"Do your work, get ready," he said. "We will need you.”

Ayelet and Or Sella recalled to ABC News the moment they were finally able to embrace their cousins Judith and Natalie Raanan at home in Israel one day after the mother and teenage daughter were released by Hamas kidnappers.

"I realized I hadn't breathed for two weeks," Ayelet said.

"I've never felt a hug this intense in my life," Or added.

But eight of their family members are still being held hostage.

Hundreds of Gaza targets struck overnight, Israel says

The Israeli military struck more than 320 targets in Gaza overnight, the Israel Defense Forces said Monday.

At least 40 people were killed and dozens more were injured in two Israeli airstrikes in northern Gaza, the Palestinian Interior Ministry said.

The Jabalia refugee camp, where most of those killed were women and children, was among the targets, Palestinian officials said.
