In an action against the ceasefire agreement, Netanyahu’s office announced that it will not allow Gaza residents to return to the north of the area until Arbel Yehud is released.
Israel’s condition for the return of the residents of Gaza to the north is to ensure that is alive, a Zionist official said.
An official from the Hamas Resistance group tells the Reuters news agency that mediators have been informed that civilian female prisoner Arbel Yehud is alive and will be released next Saturday.
A similar message is conveyed to the Al Jazeera network by the group. However, there is no formal announcement from Hamas on the matter.
The comment comes after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said Israel will not allow Palestinians to return to the northern Gaza Strip until Hamas “arranges the release” of Yehud, believed to be held by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group.
