WASHINGTON - Two Americans held in Gaza are on the list of hostages to be released in first six-week phase of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal
The two are Keith Siegel and Sagui Dekel-Chen, said the source on condition of anonymity.
Their inclusion on the list was first reported by CNN.
They were among more than 250 hostages taken to Gaza by Hamas militants, according to Israeli tallies, in the Oct 7, 2023, assault into Israel that triggered its offensive into enclave.
Siegel was abducted with his wife, Adrienne. She was among a group of hostages released in a November 2023 ceasefire agreement. REUTERS
