Four Israeli hostages taken by Hamas from the Nova music festival have been rescued alive from the central Gaza Strip, the Israeli military has said.
Noa Argamani, 25, Almog Meir Jan, 21, Andrey Kozlov, 27, and Shlomi Ziv, 40, were all recovered yesterday as part of a “complex” daytime operation. They are in good medical condition and have been transferred to the Sheba Tel-HaShomer Medical Centre for further medical examination, the Israeli military said.
Meanwhile, nearly 100 Palestinians were killed during continued fighting in Gaza, the health ministry said. Israel says more than 130 hostages of the 200-plus abducted by Hamas during the 7 October attacks remain in captivity, with about a quarter of those believed dead, while divisions are deepening in the country over how best to bring them home.
Yesterday’s rescue comes as international pressure mounts on Israel to limit civilian bloodshed in its war in Gaza, which reached its eighth month on Friday.
