No delay in the implementation of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas , signed last night in Doha. Israeli media reported, the truce will come into effect on Sunday at 12:15 local time and the first release of hostages will also take place on Sunday , they will be three civilian women.
Israel's Security Cabinet approved the agreement this morning, now all that is missing is the approval of the Council of Ministers.
Hamas is expected to release 33 hostages in total during the first phase of the agreement . Here is the list.
Among the first are the women kidnapped from the kibbutzim and at the Nova festival: Romi Gonen, Emili Demari, Arbel Yehud, Doron Steinbrecher, as well as Shiri Bibas and her sons Ariel and Kfir. Later, according to the plan, the five female soldiers Liri Elbag, Karina Ariev, Agam Berger, Daniela Galbo and Naama Levi will be freed.
The list also includes 10 men aged between 50 and 85: Ohad Ben Ami, Gidi Moses, Keith Sigal, Ofer Calderon, Eliyahu Sharabi, Itzik Elgart, Shlomo Mancer, Ohad Yahalomi, Oded Lipschitz and Tzachi Idan. In addition, nine other hostages are expected to be released in the first phase of the agreement, including the wounded and sick - Yarden Bibas (the father of the two children), Shagai Dekel Chen, Yair Horn, Omer Venkert, Aleksandr Tropnov, Eliya Cohen, Or Levy, Tal Shoham and Omer Shem Tov - as well as Avra Mengistu and Hisham Shaaban al-Said, who have been held captive in Gaza for ten years.
Meanwhile , the Israeli far right is rising up and the Minister of National Security Ben Gvir announces his resignation and the exit of his party Otzma Yehudit from the executive . "I love Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu and I will make sure he continues to be prime minister, but I will leave because the agreement signed is disastrous . We will not overthrow this government and we will support it from the outside, but we will not be partners in a defeatist agreement," he declares.
He then argues: "This agreement frees hundreds of terrorists with blood on their hands, who, once released, will try to murder the next Jew ; it allows the return of thousands of terrorists to the northern Gaza Strip with weapons, when their goal is to murder Jews; it damages Israel's ability to defend itself on the Philadelphia axis and other important points; and it undoes all the war successes that cost us so much blood." And he concludes: " If the IDF resumes fighting Hamas after a pause to free the hostages, we will offer to return to government ."
