A handover of three female Israeli hostages to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has taken place, as aid workers in Gaza prepare for a special operation ahead of the release of the rest of the hostages held by Hamas.
The three women were then handed over to Israeli forces in Gaza, the military said.
The current operation is not comparable with past experience as the full process may take around 15 months, according to a spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).
Three female Israeli hostages held by Hamas for 15 months have been released and brought back to Israel, the Israeli military says, after a long-awaited ceasefire deal took effect.

The start of the ceasefire was delayed by almost three hours on Sunday morning, with Israel blaming Hamas for failing to provide the three hostages' names. Nineteen Palestinians were reportedly killed in Israeli strikes before the list was delivered.
