Three Israeli hostages with IDF after Hamas hands them to Red Cross in latest Gaza swap
KHAN YUNIS: Gaza militants handed three Israeli hostages over to the Red Cross on Saturday in an exchange that is also set to see the release of 369 Palestinians from Israeli custody, the latest such swap under an ongoing truce deal. An AFP journalist saw masked Hamas militants parade the hostages onto a stage in Gaza's southern city of Khan Yunis, where they were told to address the crowd before their handover to the Red Cross. Three Israeli hostages released by Palestinian militants on Saturday are back in Israeli territory, the country's military said in a statement. "A short while ago, accompanied by IDF and ISA forces, the returning hostages crossed the border into Israeli territory," the military said referring to Israeli-American Sagui Dekel-Chen, Israeli-Russian Sasha Trupanov and Israeli-Argentinian Yair Horn.
