A senior Hamas official was cited by Al Jazeera as saying that the hostages will be released from three different locations in the Gaza Strip , perhaps, referring to the living hostages.

Once released, the hostages will be driven to a military base to see their families or to hospitals if medical care is needed. The remains of deceased hostages, meanwhile, are expected to be sent to the national Institute of Forensic Medicine for identification , reported The Guardian.

Under the terms of the ceasefire, once the hostages are in Israeli territory, Tel Aviv will release about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners currently in detention.

The development comes days after Israel and Hamas agreed to the first phase of Trump's Gaza peace plan , bringing an end to a fresh phase of hostilities triggered by the 7 October 2023, attack by Hamas.
