Hugs and tears: How the return of Israeli hostages opened

Footage of the three freed hostages hugging their relatives after they returned to Israel, has been shared by the Israel Defense Forces.

The video shows the moment Doron Steinbrecher, British-Israeli Emily Damari, and Romi Gonen are handed over to the Red Cross in Gaza City, as the crowd gathers, chanting.

In exchange for each of these hostages, 30 Palestinian prisoners were supposed to be released from Israeli prisons; that means 90 Palestinians are expected to be released soon.
