Bitter price of freedom: Hamas releases hostages after almost 500 days!
In a dramatic turn of events in the Gaza War, three other Israeli hostages were released by the Hamas terrorist organization on Saturday. After 498 days captivity, Sagui Dekel-Schen (36), Alexander Trufanov (29) and Yair Horn (46) are finally back in freedom. The handover took place in front of the camera in a live broadcast when the men were handed over to representatives of the Red Cross. This message, which made headlines on February 15, 2025, at the same time throws a light on the complicated negotiations during the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, which has been under pressure in the past few weeks, as [oe24.at] reported.
As part of the United Agreement, Israel, as part of the arms of the arms, becomes over 300 Palestinian prisoners, which represents the decisive agreement between the parties. This has already been the sixth exchange since the ceasefire came into force on January 19. So far, 21 hostages and over 730 Palestinian prisoners have been released in the first part of the Truce, as the AP news agency reported. This multiple release comes after intensive negotiations and the urging of international leaders, including US President Donald Trump, who ultimately demanded the complete release of all hostages until Saturday afternoon. Otherwise, he threatened with stricter military consequences, as [Stamfordadvocate.com] reported.background and personal stories
The case of Sagui Dekel -chen is particularly tragic because it comes from a family with American roots. His father, Jonathan Dekel -chen, reported that Sagui worked on a Kibbutz when he was escaped by Hamas fighters. Despite his family connection and the great concern for his well -being, the pressure on the Israeli government of finding a solution remained enormous until the final release of the hostages. This situation illustrates how very personal fates are interwoven with geopolitical decisions.
