Israel rescues Bedouin hostage held by Hamas in Gaza
The fifty-two year old man from Rahat, who's been named as Qaid Farhan Alkadi, had been abducted by Hamas on October the seventh.
The Israeli military says it has rescued a Bedouin Arab hostage who was kidnapped by Hamas gunmen during the 7 October attack on Israel and taken back to Gaza. Kaid Farhan Elkadi, 52, was rescued in a 鈥渃omplex operation in the southern Gaza Strip鈥 by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Shin Bet domestic security service, according to a statement.
