How many hostages are still in Gaza? Full list as Hamas agrees to release all Israeli captives under Trump's plan
An estimated 48 hostages are still believed to be held in Gaza. This includes two Americans.
Hamas on Friday said it has agreed to free all Israeli captives under US President Donald Trump's Gaza peace plan. It has also agreed to hand over administration of the enclave to Palestinian technocrats.
In a statement, Hamas said it agreed “to release all Israeli prisoners — both living and deceased — in accordance with the exchange formula outlined in President Trump’s proposal, and contingent upon the necessary field conditions for carrying out the exchange."
The group, however, added that other parts of Trump’s 20-point plan "require a unified national stance and must be addressed based on relevant international laws and resolutions."
The statement came just hours after President Trump warned Hamas that it had until 6 p.m. on Sunday to accept the deal, which he unveiled earlier in the week alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas,” the US president said in a social-media post on Friday.
