Israel has received the list of hostages who are slated to be released Sunday, an official familiar with the matter tells The Times of Israel.
The Prime Minister’s Office says Israel has notified the families whose loved ones are on the list handed over by Qatar, which has been mediating between Israel and Hamas.
It will be the third day of a four-day truce, which Qatar said earlier today it hopes will be extended further with the release of more abductees.
