IDF says Noa Argamani, Andrey Kozlov, Almog Meir Jan and Shlomi Ziv extracted from Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza; all reported in good health
Four Israeli hostages abducted by Hamas were freed on Saturday from the densely populated Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza in a daring IDF operation.
The four, kidnapped from the Nova festival during the October 7 massacre, are Noa Argamani, 25, Andrey Kozlov, 27, Almog Meir Jan, 21, and Shlomi Ziv, 40. All are reported to be in good health and have been transferred to Sheba Medical Center outside Tel Aviv for further examination. The IDF described the extraction as a complex operation involving ground, air and naval forces. Palestinians reported an IDF strike on Nuseirat and the neighboring Deir al-Balah camp, where at least 15 people were killed and more wounded.
“This morning (Saturday), in a joint IDF, ISA and Israel Police (Yamam) complex, special, daytime operation in Nuseirat, four Israeli hostages were rescued,” the IDF said in its announcement.
“The hostages were rescued by the IDF, ISA and Yamam forces from two separate locations in the heart of Nuseirat. The security forces will continue to make every effort to bring the hostages home.”
