The Israeli military rescued two Israeli-Argentinian hostages in an overnight mission in Gaza more than four months after they were kidnapped by Hamas terrorists during the group’s deadly invasion of Israel, officials announced late Sunday.

The two men — identified as Fernando Simon Marman, 60, and Louis Har, 70 — were freed from captivity after Israeli soldiers raided a residential building in Rafah where at least seven people were also killed. Both men, Argentinian-Israeli dual citizens, were kidnapped and taken to Gaza from Kibbutz Nir Yitzhak along with other loved ones during Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack, which prompted the current conflict between Israel and Hamas. The men are the second and third hostages rescued by the Jewish state.

Marman and Har, who are brothers-in-law, are both in good medical condition, the Israel Defense Forces said. Lt. Col. Richard Hecht said during a briefing the rescue relied on “precise intelligence” and the site where the hostages were held – on the second floor of the building – had been under surveillance for “some time.”

YAY for the IDF!
The only way any of the Fakestinian terrorists’ kidnap victims has a chance of escape to freedom is if the IDF can find and free them from their capture.
and it is a long, difficult task....hopefully all of the evil Fakestinian scum can be removed in the process.

Glad to hear 7 parasites sent to hell. They should demolish the entire building after inviting the other residents back in.

Second floor of a residential building in Southern Gaza? Innocent Palestinians, my Swalwell!

I’m actually surprised there are hostages still alive.
