israel was expecting a 28—year—old female civilian hostage, arbel yehud, to be freed on saturday. we saw the four israeli soldiers come out instead in exchange for 200 palestinian prisoners, so it is real not happy about that, and they have negotiated with hamas over the weekend and got a sort of slightly earlier release for the hostages. normally it happens on saturday. this time, three will be released on thursday, including arbel yehud, and then a further release on saturday in exchange for a score of palestinian prisoners. arbel yehud was being held by islamichhad, another militant group in gaza, and that is one of the reasons for the delay perhaps, but it was not hamas holding her. for the delay perhaps, that it was not hamas holding her. thank you very much for now. ceremonies are being held in poland today to mark the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the nazi concentration camp, auschwitz—birkenau. more than a million people, mainlyjews, were murdered there during the second world war. the date has since been designated holocaust memorial day, to mark the more than six
