Condition of hostages freed by Hamas ‘crime against humanity,’ says Israeli president

Palestinian terrorist group Hamas released three Israeli hostages on Saturday and their condition sparked alarm among the Israeli government.

President Isaac Herzog said the frail hostages represented a “crime against humanity.”

The hostages released were Ohad Ben Ami and Eli Sharabi and Or Levy, who were abducted on October 7, 2024.

Israel began releasing dozens of Palestinians on Saturday under the ceasefire deal.
