Arbel Yehud, a female Israeli citizen taken from her residence at Kibbutz Nir Oz during the Hamas assault on Oct. 7, 2023, is set to be freed by the terrorist organization the following week.

The 29-year-old is expected to be released next Saturday, Reuters reported, citing a Hamas official.

According to The Times of Israel, citing Israel’s Channel 12, Israeli authorities insisted that the terror group furnish proof of life and assure that Yehud will be included in the upcoming batch of hostage liberations.

Yehud is believed to be held by the terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad, not Hamas, complicating her release.

Israeli officials argued that Hamas breached the terms of the truce by not liberating all surviving civilian women hostages prior to the release of female soldier hostages.

As part of the violation, Israel is not allowing Palestinians to return to portions of Gaza until Yehud is returned.

“As per the agreement, Israel will not allow the passage of Gazans to the north of the Strip — until the release of the civilian Arbel Yehud, who was supposed to be released today, is arranged,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office announced.

Yehud was with her boyfriend Ariel Cunio when the two were abducted from the kibbutz.

On Saturday, four Israeli soldiers — Karina Ariev, 20; Daniella Gilboa, 20; Naama Levy, 20; and Liri Albag, 19 — were handed over to the International Committee of the Red Cross in an exchange in Gaza City, Gaza.
