Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirms reaching a deal with Hamas over a dispute on hostage releases, saying that civilian Arbel Yehud, soldier Agam Berger and a third unnamed hostage will be released on Thursday.

In addition, three more hostages will be freed on Saturday as scheduled.

Israel also says that it has received from Hamas a document regarding whether or not the remaining hostages slated for release in the first stage of the ceasefire deal are still alive.

In return, the IDF will allow the passage of Gazans to the northern part of the Strip beginning tomorrow morning, the PMO says.

Netanyahu’s office says Israel reached an agreement with Hamas after “strong and determined negotiations,” and reiterates that it will “not tolerate any violation of the agreement.” PJC
