The 20 living hostages are to be released by Hamas in the first phase of President Trump's peace plan to end the war in Gaza.
In return, 2,000 Palestinian prisoners will be freed and the IDF will withdraw initially to a position within Gaza outlined in Trump's plan.

Sarah Ferguson spoke to Sharren Haskell, the Deputy Foreign Minister of Israel, and Advisor to the Qatari Prime Minister and Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Dr Majed Al-Ansari about the peace deal.
