Netanyahu says Israel won’t ‘surrender’ after hostages rescued

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said “Israel does not surrender to terrorism” after troops rescued four hostages alive from Gaza Strip militants. The hostages, kidnapped during a music festival attack on October 7, were identified as Noa Argamani, Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov, and Shlomi Ziv. Netanyahu vowed to bring home all remaining hostages, both alive and dead, from the militant group Hamas. The October 7 attack had resulted in over 1,000 Israeli deaths and nearly 37,000 Palestinian casualties. AFP
