Islamist group Hamas He said today that for every thousand boxes of medicine entering the Gaza Strip, one will be destined for the hostages, according to an agreement reached with Israel through Qatar and France.
“For every box of medicine for prisoners, a thousand for our people” indicated in the publication in X Musa Abu MarzoukA senior Hamas Politburo official living in Lebanon spoke about the terms of the agreement announced by Qatar last night, which also includes the delivery of food and humanitarian aid.
The Hamas leader added that the shipment included 140 different types of medicine.
Medicines will be delivered International Committee of the Red CrossAs the Hamas leader noted, both those destined for hostages and those destined for the Gaza population will be distributed in four hospitals scattered throughout the strip.
Until now, the Red Cross has not had access to the hostages to check their health and conditions of detention, which has drawn sharp criticism from the families and the Israeli government; although Hamas claims that security conditions for this are not guaranteed.
It is the first agreement reached between the warring sides since a week-long truce in November that allowed the release of 105 hostages in place of 240 Palestinian prisoners in a Red Cross-facilitated swap.
It is estimated that 136 hostages remain in the Sector, 27 of them dead, and that 75% of them require medical attention either because they suffer from chronic illnesses or injuries.
Qatar announced last night the “success of Qatari mediation in cooperation with France” on an agreement between Israel and Hamas that will provide medicines and other humanitarian aid to civilians in the Gaza Strip, “in the most affected and vulnerable areas” in exchange for some of the medicines reaching hostages.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the agreement, thanked for the help and clarified that medicines were purchased by France“according to a list compiled in Israel taking into account the medical needs of the hostages.”
Abu Marzouk assured that in this case, Israeli authorities would not check the cargo, as they have done so far with all humanitarian aid trucks entering the strip, amid fears that Hamas could use them to smuggle weapons.

More than 100 days of war in the Gaza Strip have killed more than 24,400 people and wounded 61,000, who are struggling to be treated in destroyed hospitals, many of which are inoperable due to shortages of medicine, anesthesia and fuel.
