Four Israeli soldiers released by Hamas from Gaza as part of ceasefire deal

Four Israeli soldiers released by Hamas from Gaza as part of ceasefire deal

Al Jazeera
Saturday, January 25, 2025 9:47 AM GMT

Israel expected to release dozens of Palestinians held in Israeli jails as part of the ceasefire deal.

Hamas has released four female Israeli soldiers held in Gaza as part of the ceasefire agreement, handing them over to Red Cross officials in Palestine Square in Gaza City.

In exchange for the second release of the captives on Saturday, Israel is expected to release 200 Palestinians held in Israeli jails.

Ahead of the release, scores of masked Hamas and Islamic Jihad fighters gathered at the square where a large crowd of Palestinians also congregated. In addition to hundreds of Hamas members, other Palestinian factions, including Palestinian Islamic Jihad, are also present at the site.

Representatives of the Red Cross and a Hamas fighter were seen signing documents ahead of the release.

Hamas identified the four female Israeli soldiers as Karina Riev, Daniella Gilboa, Naama Levy and Liri Albag. The four captives, who were in Israeli military uniforms, waved to the crowd as they were released.
