A fascinating article. Did you notice that along with the ex-hostages -- Jews, by the way, was a rabbi?

Did you notice that Sasha Troufanov, Yelena Trufanova and Sapir Cohen received a presentation of flowers?

Did you note that those hostages were Russian-Israelis?

Did you notice that other Times of Israel articles mention Israel also dealing, albeit through third parties such as Qatar, with them?

Did you notice that the "hailing" was diplomatic speech, as some kind of negotiation requires this stuff?

Getting hostages released -- geopolitically, or in some storefront -- remains most often a matter of talking, talking and talking.

Complexities.
