The Israeli regime received Egypt’s updated proposal for a prisoner exchange deal and a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, Israeli enemy media reported.
The deal revolves around the release of eight living captives from the Gaza Strip in exchange for a truce that lasts between 40 and 70 days. Captives would be released in stages; however, Israeli media outlets said that neither the Palestinian Resistance led by Hamas nor the Israeli government had issued their final response to the deal.
In detail, the proposal includes guarantees for a permanent ceasefire and the full withdrawal of Israeli occupation forces from the Gaza Strip.
Among the eight captives to be released is Israeli-American soldier Edan Alexander, whom Hamas had previously offered to release. Moreover, the deal would also allow displaced Palestinians to return to their homes and the entry of humanitarian aid.
According to reports, the Egyptian deal also guarantees that negotiations begin for a second phase of the agreement.
