Israel says it has rescued four hostages in Gaza who were kidnapped in a Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7.
Argamani had been one of the most widely recognized hostages after being abducted from a music festival in southern Israel. The video of her abduction was among the first to surface, with Argamani detained between two men on a motorcycle as she screamed,"Don't kill me!" Netanyahu in a statement said that"Israel does not surrender to terrorism and acts with creativity and boldness that knows no bounds to bring home our abductees." He vowed to continue the fighting until all are freed.
Israel's military said it attacked"threats to our forces in the area." The military said one commando died from his wounds. The latest rescue was expected to lift spirits in Israel at a time when the war is dragging on and divisions are deepening over the best way to bring hostages home.
