A senior Hamas official has told AFP that the group is prepared to release all remaining hostages in a single swap during the second phase of the Gaza truce.
“We have informed the mediators that Hamas is ready to release all hostages in one batch during the second phase of the agreement, rather than in stages, as in the current first phase,” said Taher al-Nunu.
Nunu did not clarify how many hostages were currently held by Hamas or other groups.
Israel and Hamas are currently in the process of implementing the first phase of the truce, which began on January 19.
