Next Gaza hostage release to take place Saturday: Hamas official
2025-01-20
[GEO.TV] The next group of Gaza hostages to be released under a ceasefire agreement with Israel will be freed on Saturday, a senior Hamas official told AFP on Sunday after the initial release of three women.

"The release of the second batch of Israeli prisoners (hostages) will take place on the evening of next Saturday, the seventh day from the start of the ceasefire agreement," the official said on condition of anonymity as he was not authorised to speak publicly about the matter.
Assuming Hamas can restrain themselves for that long, anyway, not to mention Islamic Jihad and the remaining small Palestinian terror groups, whether jihadi or secular Communist. History suggests the odds are not high that they all will manage to resist irresistible temptation, just as they couldn’t that fateful October 7th that they’ve been deservedly paying for ever since.

#2  They'll drag out the hostage releases until that point in time when they'll have enough cash and 'supplies' to resume fighting.

Thoroughly inspect every car, truck, bus, ambulance, UN vehicle and push-cart crossing the border.

Hell even if the Weinermobile shows up, go through that thoroughly
