Hamas releases four Israeli hostages in second swap
ai generated text
The four women were handed over to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and transported back into Israel. As part of a hostage-prisoner exchange deal, 200 Palestinian prisoners were released from Israeli detention centers.
We confirm that all the instructions we issued are still in effect, especially the ban on approaching Netzarim Corridor until it is announced that it is open.
We've seen a lot of tears, now tears of joy and emotion, but there are more tears to be shed and they won't be tears of joy. There are going to be some unpleasant surprises.
Their return today represents a moment of light in the darkness.
The release is reliving, to some extent, the kidnapping.
Terrorists who are released always return to terrorism.
These prisoners should have been released through a bigger deal that ends the conflict, that brings peace through negotiations, through ending occupation, but the harsh reality in Palestine is that as we talk, occupation continues.
Our hearts break thinking of those left behind.
We are very happy to see Karina, Daniella, Liri and Naama coming back home to their families. At the same time, we remember that there are hostages still in Gaza. And for us, we remember Roni who will never come back home.
