3 female hostages released

Finally, 3 hostages of Hamas in Gaza were released:
6:24 p.m.: The IDF has confirmed that the three released hostages have arrived at the initial reception point in southern Israel, where they will be reunited with their mothers.

IDF officers from the Manpower Directorate and IDF medical officials are accompanying the released hostages during an initial medical assessment.

IDF representatives are accompanying their families at the hospital and updating them with the latest available information.
According to this article, one of the hostages, Emily Damari, lost 2 of her fingers on her left hand:
Damari and the other two hostages Romi Gonen and Doron Steinbrecher, released after 471 days in Hamas captivity, are undergoing initial medical assessments at the army facility, and they will soon be taken to a hospital.

The images show a bandage on Emily’s hand after she was wounded during Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel. Smiling, she holds up her bandaged hand as she waves.

According to Damari’s family, Emily lost two fingers after being shot by Hamas terrorists during the onslaught.
It's terrible that happened, and she and the 2 others freed are lucky to have survived over a year in captivity.
