Hamas said it will postpone the next hostage release scheduled for the weekend after accusing Israel of breaking the cease-fire deal on Monday.

Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas’ military wing, said the exchanges would remain on pause until Israel offers proper compensation for allegedly breaking the terms of the breakthrough truce deal that was meant to free 33 hostages in its first phase.

“Hostages who were scheduled to be released next Saturday… will be postponed until further notice, and until the occupation commits to and compensates for the entitlements of the past weeks retroactively,” Obeida wrote on X.
