  1. Palestinians hostages released from israel jail starved..tortured barefoot…but israel hostages released in good gealth even the dog took care…they gave tablet to play

  2. They shared same foids…israel cutt off everthing in gaza..babies klled in gaza..

  3. The hostages at Hamas released smiling..They hugue their captors for friendliness and good treatment… Even the dog was taken care of …As for the Palestinians, they released starving and tortured people for brutal treatment in the prisons of the Israeli occupation..

  4. weren't they in the dark to avoid being bombed/rescued by the IDF? and using hostages is terrible, no justification for it, but from the point of view of the hostages takers they would have no choice but to hide the hostages.

  5. What did you expect? You cut the aids that OTHER countries are sending to them!

  6. amazing how unprofessional…..having such objective people being the mouthpieces for the released loved ones….all so superficial…sad to see…how they all seem to think it's just fine….ya'll

  7. This interview is pretty reckless. The reason no freed hostages have talked about their experience in a negative light themselves (it has only been done through others) is because there is most likely a gag order to ensure the safety of the remaining hostages still in Gaza. Talking bad about the terrorists who still have more hostages isn't exactly the brightest idea.

  8. There's no way Israel will allow Americans medias interview the victims

  9. I love the comments. So many are understanding the difference between Zionists and Jews. Free Palestine.

  10. Lies. No hostages are allowed to speak since the first older woman who was released. She spoke about how well they were treated, fed the same food as their captors, given feminine products, and treated with utmost respect. They are waving abd smiling goodbye to Hamas as they are being released. PUnlike the children and women released by Israel. They were kidnapped, and held and abused in prison for years, in many cases. No charges, no convictions. No murderers or criminals. Children eho threw stines, women who spoke against the illegal occupation. Gaza was an open air prison, aA wall surrounding it and 22 checkpoints to go through in order to move about.
    If you want to know the truth, it's there. Over 20,000 Palestinians including over 5,000 children, have neen murdered. Its a genocide. It is worse than the Nakba in 1948, when the Zionists occupied Palestine.
    .

  11. 😂If you are looking for something exaggerated, I did not see Palestinians destroying hospitals, mosques, schools, churches that had people in them, but the Israelis did.!

  12. Of course they didn’t have enough food! Their state doesn’t allow anything into Gaza

  13. ICRC shouldve been allowed to see hostages but it was not a formal term of ceasefire though it was discussed. Global pressure is for ceasefire and hostage release.

  14. Not one word about the 5,000 or more Palestinian children that have died in Gaza. Not a single word about the suffering happening there right now.

  15. The headline I can't…. 😮‍💨
    This news channel is clearly just spoon feeding coach potatoes.

  16. Why speak for them when will the hostages who have been released speak for themselves?

  17. Thanks to Israel for NOT allowing basic aid such as food to enter gaza and as for sun entire gaza was being bombarded from all angles what do you expect people go out in the sun celebrating?? Commonsense prevail

  18. 🙂You cannot cover up the truth with perception, propaganda, misleading, you cannot deceive people, you can only deceive those who want to believe in lies, the reason why these are done is because of those people who have been oppressing the people of those people for their lands for years with their wild, monstrous feelings. Is this incident worse than the 8 thousand babies in Palestine? So what will happen to those hospitals while Palestinian people are inside them? What will happen to places of worship? Have you ever heard of a Palestinian demolishing your hospital or church with people inside?

  19. Well they did not get enough food because there was no food! Why aren’t you telling the whole story and the hostages’ testimonies who were released saying they were not abused, assaulted and were even treated humanely! Meanwhile, Palestnians came out of prison with broken body parts!! Who is the real animal here! Tired of this one sided coverage👎🏻

  20. What about our children that is in Prison for years. Palestinians don't have anything to eat. Be grateful that they had some food to eat and came home. Thousands of our children and women are tortured in your captivity. Hammas has been full of humanity with your people. Also they were forced to take hostages to get their children and women out of your inhumane prisons

  21. The Palestinians have little food or water or fuel, so that the food was shared should be celebrated.

  22. Adam Friesland legit made a joke about Jews complaining about the service during the Holocaust. This is almost exactly it.
