4 hostages kidnapped at music festival in Israel on Oct. 7 rescued, military says

Israeli forces rescued four hostages during a raid in Gaza on Saturday, according to the country’s military.

The four hostages, three men and one woman, are in good condition and have been taken to a hospital for medical checks, Israel said on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“This morning, in a joint special operation held by the @IDF, ISA and the Israeli police, four Israeli hostages were rescued from Gaza,” the post said.

“The four were kidnapped by the Hamas terrorist organization from the ‘Nova’ music festival on Oct. 7. The hostages were rescued from two separate locations in the heart of Nuseirat.”

Nuseirat is in central Gaza.

The hostages include Noa Argamani, 25, Almog Meir Jan, 21, Andrey Kozlov, 27, and Shlomi Ziv, 40.

Israeli News 12 broadcast footage of Argamani reunited her father, smiling and embracing him. Video of Argamani’s  kidnapping had circulated soon after she was dragged into Gaza  by gunmen on Oct. 7.
