Hostage negotiations are expected to resolve all issues by the end of the month, a source familiar with the ongoing talks told the Palestinian news agency Shehab on Saturday.
"The return of displaced persons is a central issue with multiple solutions under discussion," the source said. They added that "Israel is creating obstacles, such as including names of captive soldiers for early release, claiming these are humanitarian cases."
Remaining sticking points include guarantees for an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and an end to the war.
