Good morning, Middle East Eye readers,
Here are the latest updates:
- Hamas has released three Israeli captives in Gaza: Alexander Sasha Trufanov, Sagui Dekel-Chen and Iair Horn.
- 369 Palestinians are expected to be released later today. Live footage shows the first bus carrying detainees arriving in Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank.
- Hamas said that the latest captive release confirms that this can only be achieved "by adhering to the requirements of the ceasefire agreement".
- The group also said it expects indirect negotiations on the second phase of the ceasefire deal to begin with Israel next week.
