The armed wing of the Palestinian Islamist movement "Hamas" is to release four Israeli hostages held in Gaza today, dariknews.bg reported.
This will happen according to the agreement with Israel for a ceasefire in the strip.
We are talking about Karina Ariev, Daniela Gilboa, Naama Levi and Liri Albagh, who serve in the Israeli army, said the spokesman for the "Izzedine al-Qassam" brigades Abu Ubayda.
They will be released in exchange for 180 Palestinian prisoners held in Israel.
Daniela has Bulgarian roots and has Bulgarian citizenship. On March 28 last year, the girl with Bulgarian roots turned 20 years old in captivity. She was kidnapped from the Nahal Oz base, and a video later emerged showing her limping on one leg as she was forcibly loaded into a jeep. Her relatives suggest that the girl received a gunshot wound to the leg or was injured by debris caused by explosions.
This will be the second exchange since the ceasefire came into effect last Sunday. Three hostages and 90 prisoners were released in the first exchange, the BBC recalls.
