Senior Hamas official Mahmoud Mardawi told a Qatari news channel on Sunday, "We will not release any more Israeli hostages if Israel does not comply with the principle of seniority in the release of Palestinian prisoners."

A Red Cross official also told Sky News earlier on Sunday that no hostage release was guaranteed later in the day.

The Red Cross later contradicted this and stated that "an earlier statement from an ICRC official was in no way an indication that the release operations planned for Sunday will not happen.

"All preparations for the next release continue to move forward."
