Channel 12 news reports that the families of Nurit Cooper, 79, and Yocheved Lifshitz, 85, have been notified of their release from Hamas captivity.
Both were taken from their homes in Kibbutz Nir Oz. Their husbands remain in Gaza.
The two are yet to be seen at the crossing, where they have apparently been handed over to Red Cross custody.
The release came after reports said that discussions were ongoing for the release of approximately 50 dual-nationals held captive by Hamas. These discussions are part of conversations between the United States and Qatar regarding the ongoing hostilities, according to the report.
