Recently it became known that Hamas and Israel, through the mediation of Qatar, agreed on a 4-day ceasefire and the release of 50 hostages. According to media reports, the militants handed over the first group of prisoners to the Red Cross.

Terrorists freed 13 Israeli hostages. In turn, Israel plans to release 39 Palestinian women and men from prison.

The exchange process has begun

On November 24, the first group of Hamas prisoners was handed over to the International Committee of the Red Cross. According to media reports, the freed hostages are now being transported by ambulance to hospitals in Israel through the Rafah checkpoint.

Thus, the first stage of the hostage exchange was realized. In total, Hamas promised to fire approximately 50 people – children and women – within 4 days of the truce. At the same time, the ceasefire may be extended if the terrorists continue to agree to release abducted civilians. For every 10 hostages released – an additional day of truce.

At the same time, within the agreed 4 days, in exchange for 50 of its citizens, the Israeli authorities promised to release 150 Palestinian prisoners held for terrorist crimes, all of them women and minors.

Hamas also released 12 Thai citizens

Thailand, meanwhile, announced the dismissal of 12 of its citizens who were being held by terrorists in the Gaza Strip.

Earlier, the Egyptian government said it had managed to negotiate the separate release of the Thais. In total, Bangkok says Palestinian militants have captured 26 Thai citizens.
