A list of more than 100 Palestinian prisoners that Israel is set to release on Thursday in exchange for three hostages includes Zakaria Zubeidi, a prominent former militant leader and theater director whose dramatic jailbreak in 2021 thrilled Palestinians and stunned the Israeli security establishment.

Zubeidi once led the Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade — an armed group affiliated with Fatah, the secular political party that controls the Palestinian Authority — which carried out deadly attacks against Israelis during a Palestinian uprising between 2000 and 2005.

Palestinian health authorities said an Israeli airstrike in the northern West Bank has killed at least 10 people late Wednesday.

The Israeli military said the strike by a warplane targeted a Palestinian militant cell in the area based on intelligence.

The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel had received a list of hostages, held by Hamas, to be released on Thursday as part of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.

"Israel received the list of hostages who are supposed to be released from Hamas captivity tomorrow," the prime minister's office said in a statement on Wednesday, adding further details would be given "after the families are updated".

The Palestinian Health Ministry said two Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire in the occupied West Bank overnight and into Wednesday.

A 23-year-old man was shot dead in Tulkarem and a 25-year-old man was killed in a strike on Jenin, where Israel launched a large operation earlier this month.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said Wednesday that the forced displacement of Gazans is an "injustice that we cannot take part in", after U.S. President Donald Trump floated a plan to move Palestinians from the territory to Egypt and Jordan.

"The constants of Egypt's historic position on the Palestinian cause can never be compromised," Sisi said during a news conference with Kenyan President William Ruto in Cairo.

Syria's new authorities on Wednesday urged Israel's withdrawal from Syrian territory it occupied in the Golan Heights after president Bashar al-Assad's ousting, during talks with U.N. peacekeeping chief Jean-Pierre Lacroix, state media reported.

During Lacroix's meeting with Syria's foreign and defense ministers, "it was confirmed that Syria is ready to fully cooperate with the U.N.", the SANA news agency said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been invited by U.S. President Donald Trump to a meeting at the White House on February 4, the Israeli premier's office said.

An idea floated by U.S. President Donald Trump to move Gazans to Egypt or Jordan faced a renewed backlash as hundreds of thousands of Gazans displaced by the Israel-Hamas war returned to their devastated neighborhoods.

A fragile ceasefire and hostage release deal took effect earlier this month, intended to end more than 15 months of war that began with Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel.

A high-level Russian delegation in Syria expressed support for the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity following the fall of Bashar al-Assad, Moscow's foreign ministry said Wednesday.

The Israeli military said it had "eliminated over 15 terrorists" and arrested 40 wanted people during a major raid that began last week in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin.

The raid began two days after a truce took hold in the Gaza Strip, seeking to put an end to more than 15 months of the Israel-Hamas war that ravaged the Palestinian coastal territory.
