About half of the hostages captured during the October 7 incident were released as part of a weeklong ceasefire in November.
Earlier this month, Israel conducted its largest rescue operation since the conflict began on October 7, rescuing four individuals held captive by Hamas. Among those rescued was 26-year-old Noa Argamani, who had spent 245 days in Hamas’ captivity. Argamani was abducted with her boyfriend, Avinatan Or, during the Nova music festival. Distressing footage of her abduction by militants had widely circulated online. Following her rescue, she received global recognition almost immediately.
