ISRAEL | Thousands rally in Tel Aviv for hostage’s release, marking 2nd birthday of youngest hostage

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL | Hundreds of Israelis gathered in Hostage Square in Tel Aviv on Saturday night (January 18), marking the second birthday of the youngest hostage, Kfir Bibas, a few hours ahead of the start of the ceasefire deal with Hamas. Shiri Bibas, her husband Yarden Bibas, and their children Kfir and Ariel were seized by Hamas infiltrators on Oct. 7, along with more than 200 other people. Kfir and Ariel are the last of the young children still being held in the Gaza Strip, according to Israeli officials. Jimmy Miller, the cousin of Shiri Bibas, said the only evidence they had since the family was kidnapped was a video from a street camera in Khan Younis. Miller said they remain hopeful for the safe return of the victims, which would be a surprise to everyone. A huge banner with a picture of Kfir Bibas was held during the rally over the heads of the people in the square, and orange balloons were released in the air. Luis Har, a former hostage held in Gaza for four months, expressed his concern about the well-being of the hostages. Har, now 71, was taken hostage in Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on southern Israel along with four relatives and was rescued by Israeli special forces after more than four months in Hamas captivity. The Gaza ceasefire will come into effect at 0630 GMT on Sunday. The White House expects three female hostages to be released to Israel in the afternoon through the Red Cross. Thirty-three of the 98 remaining Israeli hostages, including women, children, men over 50 and ill and wounded captives, are to be freed in the first phase of the ceasefire. In return, Israel will release almost 2,000 Palestinians from its jails. #israel #telaviv #hamas #israelhamasceasefire #live Source: REUTERS Source: SATVIEW.TV VIA REUTERS Join ANI's YouTube membership to get access to perks:    / @aninewsindia   Subscribe now and press the bell icon 🔔 to get new video updates: https://bit.ly/2UV4ygi -------------------------------------- ANI is South Asia's leading Multimedia News Agency providing content for every information platform, including TV, Internet, broadband, newspapers, and mobiles.
