I'm struggling with everything on this article. On the one hand anytime a hostage has been freed, that's good news. On the other, at what cost.
40 000 dead. That's the easy stat. Amputations are also incredibly high. Most of them kids and performed without anesthetic.
This is the first time the IDF has rescued hostages.
So I'm sitting here with my initial feeling of 'oh, that's good news' ,and then I think about the wider picture and context, and it doesn't seem so good anymore.
I'm glad more hostages are free, but for me it doesn't sit well the result... 200 people dead to save 4. At least the IDF are improving, luckily this time they didn't kill the hostages.
Who is organizing these rescue operations? Homelander?
Israeli security forces rescued four hostages during a daytime raid in central Gaza Saturday, including Noa Agramani, who became of the face of the hostages taken during the Oct. 7 attacks after harrowing video of her abduction was seen around the world.
The hostages have been transferred to an Israeli hospital near Tel Aviv, where authorities say they are in "good medical condition."
The rescued hostages are Argamani, 25, Almog Meir Jan, 21, Andrey Kozlov, 27, and Shlomi Ziv, 40, according to a statement issued by The Israel Defense Forces, Israel Securities Authority and the Israel Police.
They were among those kidnapped by Hamas during the Nova music festival on Oct. 7, and are now at the Sheba Tel-HaShomer Medical Center near Tel Aviv for further examination.

Edit 2: It appears my comment was reinstated after I provided a source to counter the misinformation report. I would expect better of the mods to do some due diligence before just censoring comments. There is enough of this in the MSM and it does nothing to further allow people to see what is happening. Thank whichever mod undid the action, hoping it was little_cow but not sure.
