Israeli hostage released by Hamas speaks to media from hospital – BBC News
A hostage freed by Hamas has spoken to the media from hospital following her release.
Yocheved Lifschitz, 85, was one of two hostages released by Hamas, along with Nurit Cooper, 79 – it brings the total amount of hostages freed so far to four.
The women were kidnapped from their homes in Kibbutz Nir Oz by Hamas during their 7 October attack on southern Israel.
Following their release, they were transported to a hospital in Tel Aviv, where family members were waiting for them, the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

The religion of Islam does not do this as the Jews do with immoral genocide. The religion of Islam prohibits violence and commands standing with rights without injustice and racism. The religion of Islam is a religion of morals and veiled women. We should not be confused by men and not to touch. This is the Qur’an and it has morals, which are the word of God, good treatment, justice and peace.

What the grandmother said about all the happenings while held captive doesnt really nean it was true. One must remember, she still have other family members held captive so of course she will say what the terrorist wanted her to say before releasing her. Hamas are barbaric, brutal & uncivilsed. If not, the world wouldnt be calling them terrorist. Dont be fooled by some media. Especially Al Jazeera
