A source familiar with the matter said Alexander would likely be released on Tuesday.

It is part of efforts to reach a ceasefire agreement and allow humanitarian aid to enter the besieged enclave, the Palestinian terror group said.

An additional official, Khalil al-Hayya, the exiled leader of Gaza’s Hamas, noted that Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey have been working together to support the release efforts.

There was no immediate comment from the Israeli prime minister’s office on the announcement.
