Emily Damari, one of the first hostages freed by Hamas in the cease-fire agreement, is speaking out for the first time following her release.

A video of Shiri Bibas and her two young children being kidnapped on October 7 made headlines around the world. Hamas says they've been killed, but many Israeli's don't believe them, and the tragic mystery will likely soon be solved.

Romi Gonen, Emily Damari and Doron Steinbrecher were the first three hostages released from Gaza on Sunday morning. They arrived in Israel, the military announced, hours after the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas took hold.

Emily Damari was one of the 251 people that Hamas and other Palestinian militant groups abducted from Israel to the Gaza Strip during their attack on October 7. She was 27 at the time but has since turned 28.

Hamas is set to release four Israeli women soldiers held hostage since its October 7, 2023 attack today, under the ceasefire deal with Israel.

Hamas named the three hostages it plans to release on Sunday more than two hours after the ceasefire in Gaza was supposed to have begun. Israel had earlier said it would keep fighting until it received the names.

The sources said that while Hamas has successfully recruited new members, many are young and untrained and are being used for simple security purposes.
