Hamas announces release of four Israeli female soldiers as part of ceasefire agreement


Four female soldiers held captive by Hamas are set to be released on Saturday as part of a ceasefire and hostage exchange deal with Israel. The soldiers, Karina Ariev, Danielle Gilboa, Naama Levy, and Liri Albag, will be transferred to Israeli custody in exchange for the release of 200 Palestinian prisoners, including 120 sentenced to life. This will be the second such exchange as part of the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, which has ended 15 months of conflict in Gaza. The truce includes the release of hostages by Hamas and the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.

The four female soldiers were captured while serving as surveillance soldiers at a military base on the Gaza border. Their families have been waiting for their release for over three years, with video footage of their capture widely circulated. They were among a group of hostages taken during a Hamas terror attack, with one soldier, Agam Berger, remaining in captivity.

The soldiers had warned of an impending attack and seen suspicious activity before being taken hostage. Footage of their capture and captivity has been shared on social media, showing the harsh conditions they endured. Their families have spoken out about the impact of their capture, with one mother writing a public letter to her daughter on her birthday. The release of these soldiers is a small sign of progress in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas.
