Hamas said it had received a list of Palestinian prisoners to be released from Israel, including three women and 30 minor prisoners.

In the interim agreement reached by Israel and Hamas earlier this month, Hamas will release 50 hostages and an unspecified number of foreign citizens in exchange for a four-day ceasefire in Israel and the release of 150 Palestinian women and minor men. In the past four days, Hamas has released 69 people, including more than 10 Thai migrant workers. According to the original negotiation, for every 10 more Hamas people released, Israel would extend the ceasefire for one day.

A spokesman for Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Monday through the social media “X” platform (formerly known as Twitter) that Israel and Kazakhstan had agreed to extend the ceasefire for two days. According to earlier news, Hamas will release 20 more Israeli hostages.

Hamas confirmed it had agreed to extend the ceasefire for two days and received a list of 33 prisoners from Israel, including three women and 30 minors. Israel has yet to comment.

The Israeli government earlier pointed out that before the release of the fourth batch of hostages, 184 hostages are still being held in the Gaza Strip, including 14 foreigners and 80 Israelis holding dual nationality.
