A senior source within the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement (PIJ) has stated that they are currently holding a female hostage whose release has been demanded by the Israeli government. The Israeli government has been adamant that the 29-year-old individual, Arbel Yehud, is a civilian and should have been released as per the terms of a ceasefire-hostages deal.
The PIJ source, located inside Gaza, has alleged that Yehud is actually a trained soldier in the Israeli army's space program and is being held captive by the PIJ's military wing, al-Quds Brigades. However, there is no concrete evidence to support this claim.
