Israel, via the United States, has proposed a new prisoner exchange deal to mediator Qatar, Al Jazeera reports, citing Israel’s Channel 13.

The deal would first see Israel withdraw its troops from densely populated areas of the Gaza Strip and allow far more aid to enter the enclave, Channel 13 reports.

In the second phase, Hamas would release female Israeli captives, including female soldiers and the bodies of dead Israelis, as Israel retreats further into areas to be hashed out via Qatari and US mediation.

The media outlet said Hamas has “so far rejected this proposal” as it does not call for a full ceasefire while hostages are exchanged.
