The time is now 09:00 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In the latest developments regarding Israel's ongoing conflict, a significant diplomatic mission has been set in motion. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered a negotiation team to travel to Cairo today to advance discussions surrounding the release of hostages. This comes as Hamas has expressed its commitment to the terms of the ongoing hostage deal, with expectations that three additional hostages could be released as early as this coming Saturday. In exchange, Israel is prepared to extend a ceasefire and facilitate humanitarian aid, although responses from Hamas have been slow.

In related news, a senior Israeli official has indicated that Israel anticipates further hostage releases over the weekend, contingent upon the continuation of the ceasefire. This scenario unfolds amid heightened tensions, as Hezbollah is poised to hold a mass funeral for 105 fighters who lost their lives during the recent conflict in southern Lebanon. The situation remains delicate, with Israel's security apparatus closely monitoring developments across various fronts.

Additionally, the economic landscape in Israel is experiencing fluctuations, with the Energy Ministry announcing a decrease in fuel prices by eight agorot for March. This reduction is expected to provide some relief for residents amid ongoing economic pressures.

On the international front, a senior member of the incoming German government has pledged that Germany will reaffirm its status as a significant ally of Israel, signaling intentions to supply military support. Meanwhile, discussions between the United States and Russia have concluded in Istanbul, with both sides expressing a willingness to continue future dialogues.

In domestic incidents, two children were injured in a traffic accident involving an electric vehicle in the Moshav area of Ma'ale Iron. Emergency services provided medical assistance, and both children have been transported to a local hospital for further treatment.

In a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by the Ethiopian community in Israel, Prime Minister Netanyahu highlighted the sacrifices of Ethiopian Israelis since the October 7 Massacre, acknowledging their contributions to national defense and societal resilience. The government commemorated the 40th anniversary of Operation Moses, which facilitated the immigration of Ethiopian Jews to Israel, underscoring the ongoing struggle against discrimination and the importance of inclusion in Israeli society.

As these stories develop, they underscore the multifaceted challenges that Israel faces, both domestically and in its interactions on the international stage. Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
