Is this hostage exchange televised? If not, why not?
Was the release of US POWs from North Vietnam televised? I can’t remember, other than a lot fewer came home than were known to have been alive in Communist custody.
Not much to see. Hostages are driven in Red Cross vehicles over the border to an air force base to get medical exams and reunions with relatives.
Seems like plenty of photos. Might be security reasons for not allowing unedited video. Israeli officials have been stressing hostages’ privacy. Likely the ones in best shape go public first on their own decision.
