Hamas hands over first of six hostages with Israel set to free hundreds of Palestinian prisoners

BBC LIVE Summary

Two Israeli hostages released by Hamas in Gaza have crossed into Israel after being handed over to the Red Cross in Rafah, Israeli military says

Crowds in Tel Aviv cheered as Avera Mengistu, who was captured by Hamas in 2014, and Tal Shoham, 40, were freed

Four more hostages are expected to be released in Nuseirat in central Gaza - Hamas has named them as Omer Wenkert, 23, Eliya Cohen, 27, Omer Shem Tov, 22, and Hisham al-Sayed

In return, Israel will release 602 Palestinian prisoners and detainees, according to the Palestinian prisoners' media office

It comes after Israel said a body returned by Hamas earlier this week was not that of Shiri Bibas, as they had claimed - her family has since said a new body handed over by Hamas on Friday is hers

Saturday's release will be the final one in this first phase of the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas - which came into effect on 19 January
