Original Note:
The Israeli government made no such statement. The article quotes unnamed "Israeli officials," speculating it will be made later. Also, Geneva Art 46 states that civilians must return "after the close of hostilities," which cannot be reached if hostages are held by Hamas. https://www.axios.com/2024/01/08/israel-hamas-gaza-hostages-blinken-palestinians https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/gciv-1949/article-46
