Israel managed to recover four hostages kidnapped by Hamas
Four hostages were released from Nuseirat refugee camp in the centre of the Gaza Strip.
The Israel Defense Forces, together with the Israeli Police, released four hostages kidnapped by Hamas on 7 October 2023. This was reported by the IDF Press Service.
The rescued hostages include Noah Argamani (25), Almog Meir Jan (21), Andrey Kozlov (27) and Shlomi Ziv (40). They were kidnapped by the Hamas terrorist organisation from the Nova music festival on 7 October.
It is noted that the released hostages are in good medical condition and were transferred to the medical centre "Sheba" in Tel HaShomer for further medical examination.
Recall that about 1,200 people were killed in an unprecedented attack on 7 October 2023, when Hamas militants broke into Israel. They took another 252 people to Gaza as hostages. In response, Israel launched a military operation against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, deploying more than 20,000 troops in the offensive.
