The group announced on Sunday that the 21-year-old, who is believed to be the last living American hostage in Gaza, will be released as part of ongoing efforts to achieve a permanent ceasefire with Israel.

It did not give an exact date of when the release will happen. However, a source familiar with the matter told the news agency Reuters, it is expected to happen on Tuesday.

The group said in a statement: “Hamas has been in contact with the US administration over the past few days.

“The movement has expressed a high degree of positivity, and the release of Israeli soldier Edan Alexander, a dual US citizen, will be part of the steps being taken to achieve a ceasefire, open the crossings, and allow aid and relief to reach our people in the Gaza Strip.”

US special envoy Adam Boehler described the announcement as a “positive step forward” adding that the US would encourage Hamas to also “release the bodies of four other Americans that were taken”.

The announcement was made hours after a senior Palestinian official told Reuters that the US administration were involved in wider talks with Hamas alongside Egypt and Qatar in a “pursuit of an agreement”.

The release of Mr Alexander has been referred to as a “top priority” by Steve Witkoff, Mr Trump’s special envoy, who has been heavily involved in peace talks between Israel and Hamas.

Mr Alexander, who is from the US state of New Jersey, was 19 when he was taken from his base on the border with Gaza in southern Israel during the Hamas attacks on 7 October 2023.
