Fourteen Israeli hostages are due to be released on Saturday, an Israeli official familiar with the list of names handed to Israel on Friday night told CNN, Paralel.Az reports citing CNN.

That number is consistent with an Israel Prison Service statement Saturday that 42 Palestinian prisoners would be released -- since the truce agreement between Israel and Hamas includes swapping three Palestinian prisoners for every Israeli hostage freed.

The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office currently believes 213 people are being held hostage in Gaza following the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel.

This comes after the first groups of hostages were released on Friday amid an agreement that brought a temporary halt to fighting in Gaza.
