Disagreement lingers over the last living woman civilian being held hostage
Four female Israeli soldiers held hostage by Hamas have returned to Israel while 200 Palestinian prisoners were released on Saturday as part of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza that halted more than 15 months of war. The truce went into effect last Sunday with the release of three Israeli female civilian hostages and 90 Palestinian detainees.
Israeli officials claimed that this was a violation of the agreement’s terms that calls for civilian women still alive — of which there is believed to be one remaining in captivity — to be released ahead of soldiers. The Israeli government nevertheless decided to move ahead, and it remains unclear whether the civilian, Arbel Yehud, will be released as part of next week’s exchange.
