As part of Israel's deal with the terrorist organization Hamas, ten hostages, nine women and a girl, were released tonight (Tuesday). In addition, two Thai hostages will be released.
An IDF spokesperson stated that "the abductees who have returned to Israel are now accompanied by IDF forces on Israeli territory. An elite unit of the IDF and a force of the Shin Bet are now accompanying the 12 abductees who have returned to Israel. After they undergo an initial assessment of their medical condition, our forces will accompany the returnees until they reach their families in the hospitals. The commanders of the IDF and its soldiers salute and hug the abductees upon their return home.
