The terrorist organization Hamas is expected to release an Israeli hostage with Russian citizenship today, at the request of Russian President Vladimir Putin. This is what journalist Yaron Avraham reported on News 12.
According to the report, the release of the abductee is expected to occur even before the release of the 13 Israelis who are expected to be released this evening as part of the third release of the hostages since the ceasefire agreement with Hamas was signed. Russia is working on its own axis with Hamas and during the last few weeks a delegation of Hamas terrorists visited Russia led by Musa Abu Marzouk, during the meeting Hamas received a list of hostages with Russian citizenship that Putin wants to release.
Earlier, a senior member of the Red Cross organization said during an interview with the British news network Sky News that it is not certain that there will be a third round of release of hostages from Hamas captivity today.
According to the report on the network, there was a significant delay yesterday when Hamas accused Israel of not fulfilling its obligations under the ceasefire agreement. According to her, fewer aid trucks arrived in Gaza than what was agreed upon. Israel said it abides by the agreement. After a delay of several hours, the kidnapped and the Palestinian prisoners were released.
