The three women — identified by the Hostages and Missing Families Forum as 24-year-old Romin Gonen, 31-year-old Doron Steinbrecher and 28-year-old Emily Damari — were released by Hamas militants to the Red Cross around 10:30 a.m. EST, 5:30 p.m. local time. They had been held since the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel.
“I know they’re alive,” McGurk said. “They’ve been held in deplorable conditions over 470 days, but the Israelis have a very good system to take them into their care, and they’re going to get the care they need and be reunited with their families.”
Some 250 people were kidnapped during Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack that triggered 15 months of war. Around 100 hostages still remain in Gaza, after the rest were released or their bodies recovered.
I assume CBS is doing back story spotlights on each of the 90 hostages Israel is supposed to release?
Well, since they are brown people, no, no they won’t.
I doubt you will see the same depth of coverage. There will be 33 Israelis released in the first phase and 1700 Palestinians.
