The Prime Minister's Office released a recording of the conversation between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Farhan Kadi, the hostage rescued from Hamas captivity. Netanyahu told Kadi: "I want you to know that we don’t forget anyone. We are committed to bringing everyone back, without exception."
In the touching conversation, Kadi, who had been released, told the Prime Minister: "I was waiting for this moment."
Prime Minister Netanyahu started the call, saying: "Farhan, hello dear, welcome back!"
In response, the emotional Farhan Kadi said: "Hello and welcome, Bibi, Abu Yair!"
Netanyahu: "Farhan, I am so happy to speak with you."
Farhan Kadi: "I am also happy. I was waiting for this moment. I swear to you, Abu Yair."
Netanyahu: "Tell me, have you already met your family?"
Farhan Kadi: "Yes, my children are here."
Netanyahu: "I want you to know that we are deeply moved, both for you and for your family."
Farhan Kadi: "I thank you for this work, for getting to the point where I can see my family and be here. You truly did a sacred job. There are still others waiting."
Netanyahu: "I want you to know that we do not forget anyone, just as we did not forget you. We are committed to bringing everyone back, without exception."
Farhan Kadi: "I thank you very much. I appreciate you, Abu Yair."
Netanyahu: "Thank you, but more importantly, I want you to hug your family. I want you to know that all of Israel is embracing you and the others—we will bring them back."
Farhan Kadi: "Thank you very much. God willing, God willing. Thank you very much."
Earlier today, Netanyahu addressed the rescue operation and said: "I commend the IDF and Shin Bet for another successful rescue operation. We are working tirelessly to bring all our hostages home."
"We are doing this through two main methods: negotiations and rescue operations. Both methods require our military presence on the ground and relentless military pressure on Hamas. We will continue to operate this way until we bring everyone back home."
