(AFP) – Israeli rescued hostage Noa Argamani is seen smiling and speaking on the phone with president Isaac Herzog, surrounded by family members, after Israeli forces say it has rescued four Hamas-held hostages from Gaza. Over 250 were taken on October 7, after Hamas’s unprecedented attack in Israel resulting in the deaths of 1,194 people, according to an AFP tally based on Israeli official figures. Israel’s retaliatory military offensive has killed at least 36,600 people in Gaza, according to the Hamas-run territory’s health ministry.
