Israel expects the radical Palestinian Hamas movement to present a list of three hostages on Friday to be released on Saturday, The Jerusalem Post reported, citing an Israeli official.
According to him, it is expected that the head of the government, Qatari Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdel Rahman Al Thani, will send the list to David Barnea, the head of Israel's Mossad intelligence service. It is expected that if the hostages are released over the weekend, this will resolve the crisis threatening the ceasefire, the newspaper noted.
On February 10, Hamas military spokesman Abu Ubaida announced the postponement of the release of a new group of hostages held in Gaza, who were supposed to return home on February 15.
