Hamas to release 13 Israelis, 7 foreigners for 39 Palestinians after hours-long snag, mediators say

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:56:25 GMT

KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip (AP) — Hamas agreed to release 13 Israelis and seven foreigners late Saturday in exchange for 39 Palestinians imprisoned by Israel, Qatari and Egyptian mediators said, after the militant group delayed the second round of swaps for several hours and claimed that Israel had violated the terms of a truce deal. The last-minute snag had created a tense standoff on the second day of what was meant to be a four-day cease-fire. By nightfall, as the hostages should have emerged from Gaza, Hamas alleged that the aid deliveries permitted by Israel fell short of what was promised and that not enough of the aid was reaching northern Gaza — the focus of Israel's ground offensive and main combat zone. Hamas also said not enough veteran prisoners were freed in the first swap on Friday.“This is putting the deal in danger and we have spoken to mediators about that,” Osama Hamdan, a senior Hamas official, said in Beirut. But Egypt, Qatar and Hamas itself later said obstacles ha...

What Sharks’ Quinn said about injured winger still finding his way

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:56:25 GMT

SAN JOSE – San Jose Sharks forward Filip Zadina is considered day to day with an upper-body injury and will miss Saturday’s game against the Vancouver Canucks, coach David Quinn said.Zadina did not play the final two periods of Friday’s game with the Montreal Canadiens, a 3-2 shootout loss for the Sharks, with Quinn saying after the game that the winger’s upper body issue “had been bothering him and it just acted up.”Zadina, 23, was signed by the Sharks to a one-year, $1.1 million deal in July after he and the Detroit Red Wings, who drafted him sixth overall in 2018, mutually agreed to terminate his previous contract.Seeking a fresh start with another team, Zadina left behind $4.56 million in actual money he was owed to become a free agent. Feeling he would get that opportunity under Quinn, he joined the Sharks on a short-term contract and will be a restricted free agent with arbitration rights after the season.Prior to Friday’s game, Zadina had three goals and two assists and...

Lens extends unbeaten league run to 8 games with a 3-0 win at Clermont. Marseille visits Strasbourg

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:56:25 GMT

PARIS (AP) — Lens extended its unbeaten run in the French league to eight games with a 3-0 win at Clermont in an ill-tempered match on Saturday.Club-record signing Elye Wahi opened the scoring for Lens with an 11th-minute header but was sent off in first-half stoppage time, along with Clermont defender Alidu Seidu. Lens remained in sixth place but moved one point behind fifth-place Reims ahead of Sunday’s games. It is some turnaround for Lens after losing four of its first five matches.Lens goalkeeper Brice Samba, who is a backup goalie for France, prevented an equalizer with a stunning close-range stop from striker Grejohn Kyei in the 26th.Wahi, who joined this summer from Montpellier for 35 million euros ($38 million), was shown a second yellow card and sent off following a heated verbal exchange with Seidu, who was shown a straight red card moments later. That decision angered Clermont coach Pascal Gastien and he got sent off from the dugout.Lens controlled the second half,...

Rangers throttle Bruins, 7-4

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:56:25 GMT

The eye test has told us over the last week that the Bruins are not really the best team in the NHL . Now the standings confirm it.The New York Rangers leapfrogged the B’s into the league’s top spot by points percentage for the time being with a 7-4 win at Madison Square Garden. It was the first time the B’s have lost two games in a row, and in regulation no less.But much more troubling than the standings is how the product has looked lately. Counting the B’s 3-1 win over Florida, the B’s allowed 18 goals in four games in the week.Again, the B’s started horribly and found themselves in a hole early. They played well in spurts and did tie the game twice. But the performance could not be categorized as good by any means, and with far-too-taxed Linus Ullmark having a merely average outing, the B’s got the result they could have gotten on many other outings this year if not for great goaltending.The first period was a wild, see-saw 20 minutes th...
