Hamas earlier announced it’s ready to hand over an Israeli-American captive and the bodies of four dual nationals. US envoy Steve Witkoff told reporters this month that gaining the release of Edan Alexander, 21, is a “top priority”. US hostage negotiator Adam Boehler met Hamas leaders in recent days to seek Alexander’s release. Hamas said the move is conditional on beginning the talks on the second phase of the ceasefire, opening crossings, and lifting the total blockade imposed by Israel two weeks ago.
