Tomorrow a hostage release will begin. Not all the hostages, but it's a beginning, hopefully.

Starts Friday, 8am eastern time.

Don't know as to why they have to return a few hostages at a time. Let these people return to their families !

@skatting44 If there's ever been a war with lots of logic and care involved, I haven't lived through it or studied it. War is ugly.

But how best to make this happen?

These exchanges seem so lopsided in the number of people released.

We are giving them 10 Billion Dollars

I cry every time I see their families on TV begging for their loved ones to be released . There's even an infant girl whom I heard was a US citizen

(corrected from 10 million )

@skatting44 We are giving them 10 Million Dollars.

In addition to the US pledge of $100M for humaritian aid other countries are doing the same. EU $78M, Egypt and Qatar $500M. Rowanda is sending 70Tons of supplies.

And that's just a drop in the bucket of what will be needed just on the short term.

What no confirmation that any Americans were released today among the 13. Why 13 and not the 15 they said were to be released . Sounded like several Philippinos were released who went through a different negotiation channel .

The little now-orphaned 3-yr old American girl was released.

There was also some Thai hostages released, also negotiated through other channels.

ETA: I misunderstood the report. The orphaned girl has NOT been released.

13 Israelis, 9 children, some with mothers & 4 women age 34 - 85 yrs
12 Thai farmers that worked on the Kabutz & one Filipino; their release was negotiated separately. Hopefully, more will be released tomorrow & the next three days. Our President was expecting a list.

Correction: 9 women 34-85 yrs & 4 children with their mothers.

Hopefully more Americans will be freed soon.

Americans or not their lives all matter equally. Pray they will all be released and that they are all alive.

The hostages released seem to be in good health, physically so that is a positive sign.

Re: Release tomorrow.

Stray — Sat, 25 Nov 2023 16:21:51 GMT

No hostage release today

Re: Release tomorrow.

chrystaltree — Sun, 26 Nov 2023 16:22:07 GMT

It's interesting that the hostages who have been released all appear to be in good health. They are looking nourished, hydrated, clean. Their injuries were treated apparently. Better than the homeless people we see in our cities. I wasn't expecting that. Obvious they have emotional trauma that will require therapy, perhaps a lifetime of therapy

Little Abigail Idan, 4 years old, and other young children have been released to the Red Cross today!!!!
