He, however, added that there have been no talks, so far, about Israeli captives that may be released in return regarding their gender, or whether they are civilians or soldiers.

No exact figure has yet been announced on the number of Israeli captives in Gaza, whereas the Israeli officials estimate they are over 100.

The Gaza-based Resistance group, Hamas, launched Operation Al-Aqsa Flood against Israel early Saturday, firing a barrage of rockets. It said the surprise attack was in response to the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied East Jerusalem and increased Israeli settler violence.

In retaliation, the Israeli army launched Operation Swords of Iron against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, killing more than 500 Palestinians and wounding at least 2,751 others.
