Hamas said it is willing to release US-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander and the bodies of four dual nationals held in Gaza.
The militant group said it had received “a proposal” from mediators, without going into details. Qatar and Egypt have mediated indirect talks between Israel and Hamas.
“The movement responded with responsibility and positivity, submitting its reply at dawn today, which included its approval to release the Zionist soldier Edan Alexander, who holds American citizenship, in addition to the bodies of four others with dual nationality.”
Hamas did not identify the names of the dead hostages it will release.
