Israel delayed, on Saturday, the release of hundreds of Palestinian detainees after the release of six hostages in Gaza, according to Israeli officials, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to move "firmly" to restore the rest of the hostages.

While Israel was supposed to launch 602 Palestinian detainees against the six Israeli, Israeli officials said that this could happen only after Netanyahu held security consultations later, Saturday.

The sources did not provide a clear reason for the delay, which comes after two days in which sadness prevailed in Israel, where the remains of the hostage Sherry Pipbas were identified the day after the delivery of a body that was found to be not for her.

Six Israelis, some of whom were dual, were released earlier, and they are the last group of living hostages in implementation of the first stage of the armistice.

The Palestinian Prisoner Club announced that in return, 602 Palestinian detainees will be released, on Saturday, including 50 sentences of life imprisonment. He added that 108 detainees are scheduled to be removed outside the Palestinian territories.

The Hamas movement considered on Saturday evening that the delay of Israel was the release of hundreds of Palestinian detainees is a "scandalous breach" of the ceasefire agreement in Gaza.

Hamas spokesman, Abdul Latif Al -Qanoua, accused in a statement of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "of continuing procrastination and procrastination behavior."

And Wednesday, Hamas said that it is ready to release a "one go" for all the hostages who are still detained in Gaza during the second stage of the agreement, which was scheduled to start on the second of March.

But indirect negotiations on this stage, which is supposed to put an end to the war permanently, was late with the exchange of accusations of violating the truce.

62 out of 251 hostages were kidnapped on October 7, detainees in the Gaza Strip, including 35, were killed, according to the Israeli army.

Since the truce began, Israel has received 29 hostages, including 4 who were killed, in exchange for the release of more than 1,100 Palestinian detainees.

The truce agreement stipulates in its first stage that Hamas released 33 hostages, including eight dead, in exchange for Israel releasing 1900 Palestinian detainees held in its prisons.

Hamas confirmed that only four hostages are left to hand over Israel by the first of March by the end of the first phase of the ceasefire agreement that came into effect on January 19.

As for the third and final stage, it is initially assumed to relate to the reconstruction of Gaza, whose homeless people live in the war between the rubble in the shadow of a severe cold.

The attack of October 7, 2023 killed 1215 people from the Israeli side, most of them civilians, including the hostages who died or killed in captivity.

The Israeli attacks killed at least 4,819 people in Gaza, the majority of whom are civilians, according to the data of the Ministry of Health of Hamas.
