After months of surveillance and monitoring, the Israeli army pinpointed the location of a group of Israeli hostages near the Al-Nuseirat camp in the middle of Gaza. Immediately, the Israeli army began its complex operation in the camp, launching intense and focused bombardment to disguise the main operation it intended to carry out. Following the concentrated shelling of the camp, which resulted, according to preliminary reports, in the deaths of more than 50 Palestinians, a group of Israeli troops entered the hideouts prepared by Hamas to hold the hostages, where they engaged in combat with Hamas members tasked with guarding the hostages.
The troops succeeded in killing Hamas members and freeing four hostages in good health. Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adraee announced via the platform "X" that "this morning, 4 Israeli abductees were freed: Tova Argamani (25), Almo Mier (21), Andrei Kozlov (27), and Shlomi Zeif (40)," according to Agence France-Presse. He also indicated that these individuals were kidnapped by Hamas while attending a music festival in southern Israel on October 7, confirming that "their health condition is good."
