Al-Qassam Brigades deployed around the house of the slain Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, ahead of today's captive release, Quds News Network reported.

Hamas is set to hand over the captives to the Red Cross from around 9am (7:00 GMT), though there could be delays, according to The Times of Israel. The publication said the Israeli army is prepared for the scenario where the captives are released in more than one location in Gaza, including in the Strip’s south.

The captives being released in the coming hours are surveillance soldier Agam Berger and civilians Arbel Yehoud, Gadi Mozes, and five Thai nationals.
