The long nightmare in captivity for two of the hostages taken by Hamas during its deadly surprise attack on Israel has ended, Israeli authorities said.
Judith Raanan, 59, and her daughter, Natalie Raanan, 17, were released by Hamas to the Red Cross and are now back in Israel, Israel Defense Forces said.
Their conditions were not immediately clear.
The Raanans are from Illinois. Ben Raanan, the brother of Natalie Raanan and son of Judith Raanan, said his mom and sister were in Israel for a relative’s birthday when they were taken hostage
That’s really good to hear. I’m happy that these people are coming home safe!
Unlike the thousands of dead Palestinians.
Yes, Hamas’s war has many victims.
Shame on Israel. Over 50 years of apartheid.
🙄
We are sending a third aircraft carrier, so another release is imminent.
Now 200 more to go.
