Gaza, MINA – The Al-Quds Brigade, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad movement, warned that Israeli attacks in Gaza risk killing Israeli hostages held in the enclave.
In a statement, the Al-Quds Brigade urged the families of the Israeli hostages to demand that the occupying forces halt their bombing, emphasizing the danger to the hostages as the final stage of their release preparations is underway, based on a prisoner exchange agreement.
“The intensity of Israeli attacks could cause families to receive their loved ones in coffins,” the group said, stressing that the fate of the prisoners now lies entirely in the hands of the Israeli military,” the Al-Quds Brigade said in their statement.
The warning came just hours before the anticipated implementation of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, which is set to take effect at 8:30 a.m. local time (0630 GMT) on Sunday.
