Israeli army says Red Cross confirms handover of 3 captives held in Gaza

ai generated text

Romi Gonen, a 24-year-old, and two other hostages, Doron Steinbrecher and Emily Damari, were captured during the October 7 massacre in Gaza. Emily Damari, a British citizen, was taken from her home in Kfar Aza kibbutz, and Romi Gonen was kidnapped from the Supernova dance festival. The hostages were believed to have been held in captivity for 15 months. In response to a long-awaited ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, the hostages were handed over to representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross. The Red Cross confirmed the handover, and the Hostages and Missing Families Forum expressed relief and hope for the return of other hostages still held in captivity.

    1. I also appreciate President Trump's decision to lift all remaining restrictions on the supply of critical weapons and munitions to Israel. If we need to return to fighting, we will do so in new ways and with immense force.
    1. This ceasefire must lead to a credible pathway towards a two-state solution in which Israelis and Palestinians can live side by side in peace.
    1. The vast majority of shelters are overcrowded and many are simply living out in the open or in makeshift structures.
    2. They lack basic needs like warm clothes. I would not call these living conditions, they are not conditions fit for human beings.
    1. Both President Trump and President Biden gave full backing to Israel's right to resume fighting if Israel concludes that the negotiations for the second phase are futile; I deeply appreciate this support.
    2. I would like you to tell them: Romi, Doron and Emily – an entire nation embraces you. Welcome home.
    3. This moment was achieved thanks to the sacrifice and bravery of our heroic fighters — Israel's heroes. I promise: we will bring everyone home.
    1. We stand ready to support her upon her release. We urge both sides to implement all phases of the deal in full and for all hostages to be returned.
    2. We're trying to reach a million people within the shortest possible time.
    1. I was pleased to have our team speak as one voice in the final days. It was both necessary and effective and unprecedented.
    1. After 50 days of captivity, the hostages suffered from many physical and psychological problems.
    2. This time, after (more than 470 days of detention), it's going to be horrible.
    3. Their return today represents a beacon of light in the darkness, a moment of hope and triumph of the human spirit.
    1. The Red Cross has communicated that the three Israeli hostages were transferred to them and are on their way towards IDF and Israel Security Agency forces in the Gaza Strip.
