Israeli authorities issued a detailed schedule of the first phase of the ceasefire in which 33 hostages will be released
Three hostages are to be released on Sunday, the first day of the ceasefire. Those returnees have already been identified as 31-year-old Doron Steinbrecher, 24-year-old Romi Gonen and 28-year-old Emily Damari, an Israeli-UK national, it was cleared for publication.
On Saturday, four hostages will be released and then three captives will be freed each week for the following four weeks. By the end of the sixth week, Hisham al-Sayed and Avraham Mengistu, who have been held in Gaza since 2014 and 2015 respectively, will also be freed. The remaining 12 will be released on the last week of phase one.
The final number of the terrorists to be released in the deal will depend on how many of the 33 hostages are alive. While many would be sent back to their homes in Judea, Samaria and Gaza, the highest profile prisoners like Marwan Barghouti will likely be deported.
