Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday evening that the Gaza agreement will not be implemented unless Israel receives a list of hostages released in the first stage.

A statement from Netanyahu's office said: "We will not move forward in implementing the plan until we receive a list of the hostages who will be released. Israel will not tolerate any violation of the agreement. The full responsibility lies with Hamas."

The ceasefire is scheduled to begin tomorrow at 8:30 am, with the hostage release process set to begin at 4:00 pm. However, the delay in receiving the names is increasing tensions over the implementation of the deal.

Egypt, which is mediating the truce between Israel and Hamas, announced on Saturday that Israel will release more than 1,890 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for the release of 33 Israeli hostages in the first phase of the Gaza truce.

The Egyptian Foreign Ministry said the detainees would be released during the first phase of the 42-day ceasefire, which is set to go into effect on Sunday at 8:30 local time (6:30 GMT).
