Hostage Release in Gaza City: Four Israeli Women Freed Amid Tensions

[Social Media]

 

In a staged by Hamas in a crowded Gaza City square, four Israeli hostages were handed over to the Red Cross. Liri Albag, Karina Ariev, Daniella Gilboa, and Naama Levy—appeared healthy, walking unaided, smiling, and waving as they were released. Dressed in military-style uniforms, they held "gift bags" provided by Hamas during the orchestrated handover.

 

 

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that the International Red Cross had notified them of the release and was facilitating the transfer of the hostages to IDF and Shin Bet forces inside the Gaza Strip. The four women were taken directly from the stage into Red Cross vehicles, marking the beginning of their journey back to Israeli territory. Once in Israel, they are set to reunite with their parents at an IDF base.

Dozens of armed Hamas terrorists are currently gathering in Gaza for the release of 4 female hostages.

Soon we will witness Hamas’ carefully orchestrated and cruel propaganda.

The handover event featured a stage in the center of the square, where Hamas members signed documents in the presence of Red Cross representatives, as thousands of onlookers and armed militants surrounded the scene. This spectacle bore similarities to a previous hostage release, where Hamas also presented freed captives with gift bags and conducted formalities on stage.

 

Hamas announced that 70 of the 200 Palestinian prisoners to be freed by Israel as part of the ceasefire agreement would be deported outside Gaza and the West Bank. In response, Israel reaffirmed its stance that Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis should be permanently deported and barred from returning to their homes in Gaza or the West Bank under the terms of the agreement.

 

This release highlights the fragile and complex nature of the ongoing ceasefire and prisoner exchange negotiations. While the return of the hostages brings relief to their families and the nation, it also underscores the deep divisions and tensions that persist in the region.

Psychological torture

In November, Hamas falsely claimed Daniella was killed in an Israeli airstrike, even releasing photos of a body bag. Today, Daniella is alive and free. They used lies to further torture her family. Thank god she is back home with them.

Great news.

 

This can happen when you have a strong leader like Trump instead of a senile one that focuses on enriching his crime family.
