Hostage releases may take place earlier in the day tomorrow than originally planned
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIsrael believes that tomorrow’s release of four hostages will take place earlier tomorrow than the 4 p.m. original schedule, Hebrew media reports.
Arabic media reports that Hamas has indicated that the releases will take place in the early afternoon. Some Hebrew media reports say the hostages may be released in the morning.
Last week, three hostages were released in the late afternoon.
Hamas is said to have an interest in tomorrow’s processes beginning early, since Israel is slated to allow Palestinians displaced from northern Gaza to begin to return on foot after the hostages are freed.
