A member of the negotiating team said: “The number of 24 people kidnapped alive is already the correct official figure, and it is also the official figure provided by the coordinator for prisoners and missing persons to the mediators during the negotiations.” The Committee for the Families of the Resistance Prisoners in Gaza: “Netanyahu must clarify his and his wife’s statements regarding the living prisoners.” The Authority for the Families of Israeli Prisoners in Gaza: “We are asking for information about the safety of our children if there is any news. Netanyahu must clarify his and his wife’s statements regarding the living kidnapped.”
A source from Hamas's "Dath Network": "There is a continuous and intense Arab and regional diplomatic movement to reach a formula to end the war and a comprehensive agreement. So far, Israel has rejected any document that provides for the end of the war and insists that its document only provides for a partial agreement and the exchange of prisoners. We are ready for any agreement that defines the overall framework that includes the end of the war, Israeli withdrawal, the exchange of Israeli prisoners for Palestinian prisoners and the reconstruction of Gaza. Israel is struggling to buy time while it continues its war of extermination against our Palestinian people, along with starvation."
