A "complex rescue operation" in southern Gaza was a success, the Israeli military said Tuesday. A hostage taken by Hamas-led militants during the Oct. 7 rampage into Israel that ignited the war in Gaza was freed and reunited with his family, officials said. Qaid Farhan Alkadi, 52, a member of Israel's Arab Bedouin minority, was in "normal" medical condition, but he said that other hostages "are suffering," according to officials. About 250 people were taken hostage during the Hamas-led attack, and more than 100 of them remain in the hands of militants, though many are believed to be dead. 👉 Here's the latest. | Qaid Farhan Alkadi is greeted by a loved one at Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba, Israel, in this handout photo on Tuesday.
