The military spokesperson for the al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Obeida, stated on Thursday that the Israeli occupation forces targeted a location where a female captive set to be released as part of the first phase of the anticipated prisoner exchange deal was being held.

In a post on Telegram, Abu Obeida warned that "any aggression or bombing by the occupation during this phase could turn the freedom of a captive into a tragedy."

Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani held a press conference to announce the successful efforts to broker a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.

During the press briefing, Al Thani confirmed that both Palestinian and Israeli parties had agreed to the terms of the ceasefire, which is set to be implemented on Sunday, January 19.

The Qatari leader emphasized that work is ongoing with both the Israeli occupation and Hamas to ensure the smooth execution of the agreement's steps. He also disclosed that the ceasefire would be carried out in phases, with further details of the second and third stages to be announced following the completion of the first phase.

Under the agreement, Hamas is set to release 33 captives in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners.

Al Thani highlighted Qatar’s role in facilitating the negotiations, praising the increased cooperation from both the current and incoming US administrations in achieving the ceasefire deal.
