Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed his joy and relief as he spoke with the parents of Liri Albag, one of the four female Israeli soldiers recently freed by Hamas. Albag, along with six other female soldiers, was kidnapped from the Nahal Oz military base and held hostage in Gaza for 15 months.
Netanyahu conveyed his support and solidarity to the Albag family, stating, 'My wife and I, together with the entire people of Israel, embrace Liri and her friends who have emerged into a great light.' He further added, 'This is truly a great day. We are working on the release of everyone else.'
The Albag family expressed their overwhelming joy and gratitude in a statement, thanking all those who supported them during the challenging period. They acknowledged the outpouring of support, prayers, and love that served as a beacon of light for them.
The freed soldiers, who served as IDF lookouts at the Nahal Oz base, were reunited with their families, marking a moment of celebration and relief for the nation. The release of these brave women has brought hope and optimism to the Israeli community.
Netanyahu's commitment to securing the release of all remaining captives reflects the government's unwavering dedication to the safety and well-being of its citizens. The nation stands united in solidarity with the freed soldiers and their families, cherishing their return to freedom.
