it really does look quite chaotic. there is a lot of pushing and shoving going on. if we can use the position but if we can use the position of the people with cameras and as a uide, in the phones as a guide, in the of that group, middle of that group, surrounded by hamas gunmen middle of that group, surrounded by the hamas gunmen surrounded by the hamas gunmen with the green headbands, we with the green headbands, we have a working 7 must have a working assumption must have a working assumption that the hostages are somewhere crowd that the hostages are somewhere that the hostages are somewhsrs the in the middle of that. really that the hostages are somewhere the of really in the middle of that. really not easy to move not easy for anyone to move not easy for anyone to move through this crowd.

this through this crowd. crowd clamours it certainly is more chaotic than the release we saw earlier today in jabalia than the release we saw earlier today injabalia in the north of gaza of agam berger, the 20—year—old soldier. but because people were waiting around longer, if we don't know why, the crowds grew and grew as people learned that this was happening. your land, it really is a chaotic scene, isn't it? but moving towards what i think might be the red cross vehicle. that is correct. people here believe that what they were seeing was 80—year—old gadi moses that brief glimpse that we have of an older man a short time ago, because there was a

cheer that went up. but this doesn't seem to be a dangerous crush if people in khan younis, the most chaotic of the hottest releases we have seen —— of the hostage releases. as we understand, israel complained the of the mediators about hamas of the mediators about hamas of the first of these three releases in gaza city, saying that was not well organised. they felt the safety of the hostages was put in danger. you can only imagine what might be said after these scenes have been witnessed. but this is also the biggest of the expected releases that we have seen, with islamichhad understood to have been holding the five thai farm workers who were supposed to be released as part of a side agreement, as well as the two be

yehud, she is 29, to be from the images we released. from the images we saw earlier, it would show that those two being brought together, it seems that they were to be over were expected to be handed over to the red cross at the same time. you can see in the pictures at moment pictures at the moment that there are different armed men trying to back the crowd, trying to push back the crowd, where people are just surging forward trying to take photos and film is and film what is happening there. if it does to be there. if it does seem to be there. if it does seem to be the red cross vehicle that is therred cross vehicle that is therred cross vehicle that is the middle, because caught in the middle. because see there flag of you can see there the flag of the red cross attached to the vehicle. it is the job of white vehicle. it is the job of the red cross to take the a y cross for medicai a y cross to for medicai a y cross to take medicai hostages away from the scene, a y cross to take the iicai the red cross to take the hostages away from the scene, to bring them to the israeli to them to the israeli to bring them to the israeli military, that is waiting to military, that is waiting to receive the then they receive the hostages, then they receive the hostages, then they will take them to an army base will take them to an army base in a kibbutz outside gaza, in a kibbutz outside gaza, where they will be reunited my“ ”again where they will be reunited with their loved before with their loved ones before are taken for medicai they are taken off for medical

ayou ken for medicai tests. you can see another cheer going up behind me because it doesn't seem that this handover is taking place, even though we can't see exactly who is in the vehicles. yes, i was about to say, people seem to be pointing their cameras into that red cross vehicle. but even that we have been looking at these pictures, we haven't actually seen anyone being put into or hostages being put into or hostages being put into that vehicle, but then it would be quite hard in these really chaotic scenes of huge crowds and such a crush going on. but based on where cameras are pointing, it would look as though the hostages are already in that vehicle. but of we can't

try to make out exactly what is happening because of the huge crowd there and have a crush that been on. it that has been going on. it looked as though the hamas or islamichhad gunmen were islamicjihad gunmen were at times to hold struggling at times to hold back crowd as well. but struggling at times to hold back didn't wd as well. but struggling at times to hold back didn't seem well. but struggling at times to hold back didn't seem to ll. but struggling at times to hold back didn't seem to be but struggling at times to hold back didn't seem to be a it e55f5 5555 5555 55 55 5 through the crowd, then that, a civilians, then inside that, a ring of photographers, and inside that, the of inside that, the ring of gunmen, and perhaps in gunmen, and perhaps probably in the middle of those gunmen, the hostages. but we caught a two hostages. but we caught a glimpse, a very brief glimpse, of we think or believe to of what we think or believe to be moses, the 80—year—old be gadi moses, the 80—year—old taken from his kibbutz on the 7th of 2023. a 7th of october 2023. just a very brief glimpse of a face 7th of october 2023. just a very l pushed, ase of a face 7th of october 2023. just a very l pushed, carried face 7th of october 2023. just a very l pushed, carried through being pushed, carried through this crush this crowd. and this crush and this crowd. and although the cameras andrphones all pointed now towards are all pointed now towards that red cross vehicle, we haven't seen the

haven't actually seen the hostages being put into that it may have vehicle. it may have happened. we haven't seen it in but we haven't seen it in the throng, the crowd and the throng. inthe crowd and the so no choreography, as crush. so no choreography, as we saw earlier in the day with a soldier agam 5 5555555555 555555 5555! who was released by berger, who was released by a different of hamas in a different part of gaza strip. where was on a makeshift stage, standing on a makeshift stage, hamas gunmen alongside her, holding what like some holding what looks like some kind of certificate and before walkin . before walkin on beforewalkino - of ste-s ore walkin o - of ste-s and fialkin o - of stes and c-ettin o - couple of steps and getting into red cross so into the red cross vehicle. so nothing that here. and confirmation yet that the transfer has actually happened. but it would seem to be the case. and we have been led that it is arbel yehud, believe that it is arbel yehud, who were supposed to be released as a woman, released asacivilian. woman, supposed to be was supposed to be released earlier than this. than gadi
