Al-Nasser Salah al-Deen Brigades, a Gaza-based terror group allied with Hamas, says it will release the body of Israeli hostage Ohad Yahalomi on Thursday.
Ohad’s is one of four bodies set to be released by Hamas in the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire deal.
Overnight, Hamas said that it had reached an agreement with Israel for the release of the four bodies and 602 Palestinian security prisoners that Israel was to have released on Saturday. Jerusalem had refused to move forward with the release, citing Hamas violations of the deal during the return of the three Bibas family members’ remains, as well as the propaganda ceremonies it has been convening throughout the hostage releases.
