Ynet reports that the ceasefire deal will be carried out in three phases, with a gradual return of all Israeli hostages:
After long and arduous negotiations, an agreement was reached between Israel and Hamas Wednesday evening on a deal in which 33 hostages, both living and dead, will be returned to Israel from Hamas captivity in the Gaza Strip. The list of hostages to be released includes all women still in captivity, civilians and soldiers, all children (Ariel and Kfir Bibas) and all men over the age of 50 who are still in captivity.
Israel treasures life, and is willing to go to the greatest lengths to secure the lives of her captive citizens. Please continue to pray that these sacrifices will bear fruit – that all hostages will be returned safely to their loved ones, and that the agreement will lead to true and lasting peace and security for Israel.
