I’d take a hard stance on Gaza tomorrow, but I can’t say what Israel will do appeared first on The Times of Israel.

Palestinian militant groups in Gaza said they will release three hostages tomorrow, in accordance with the terms of the ceasefire, including US-Israeli Sagui Dekel-Chen, a Hamas official said.

US President Donald Trump said on Friday (local time) that he was not sure what would happen on Saturday at noon, a reference to the deadline he put in place earlier this week, saying “let all hell break out” if Hamas does not release hostages still being held in

The US President had earlier unveiled a plan to capture the Gaza territory and relocate nearly 1.2 million Palestinians in Gaza.

Hamas militants have named the next three Israeli male hostages to be released as part of a fragile ceasefire deal that had teetered in recent days amid a major dispute that raised the specter of fighting resuming in the devastated Gaza Strip.

Meanwhile, Israel's Prime Minister's Office said on Friday that it had received the names of three male hostages - Sagui Dekel Chen, Sasha Troufanov and Iair Horn set to be released by Hamas on Saturday, as part of the sixth hostage prisoner exchange under the ongoing ceasefire agreement with Hamas, The Times of Israel reported.

President Donald Trump repeated threats to Hamas Saturday as he crowed that the terror group has had an apparent change of heart. Trump's comment came as three hostages were released under a ceasefire agreement with Israel that Hamas had threatened to derail earlier this week,
