The Edan Alexander, which was released in the evening from Hamas-Geisel, for the first time after a year and a half, sawed his family again. On the shots spread by Israel’s army and government, you can see how the 21-year-old and his mother Yael fall into each other. The mother initially screams with joy, after all, both cry. Then he can be seen in a hug with his father Adi and his siblings. He kisses his brother and sister’s forehead at the emotional reunion at a military base in Israel.
The 21-year-old was then flown to a clinic by helicopter. The American-Israeli dual state is said to have arrived there. On the way there he showed a table with the inscription “Thank you, President Trump !!!”. The release is considered a gesture to the United States. In this way, Islamist Hamas wants to ensure that US President Donald Trump puts pressure on Israel’s government so that a Gaza agreement that also provides for a permanent end of the war comes about.
Edan Alexander looks pale on the recordings after his return to Israel. According to the broadcaster Kan, he said in a first conversation with his mother that he had to go to the beach for sunbathing. The family had traveled from the USA to receive the 21-year-old. On October 7, 2023, terrorists had delayed the soldiers from an Israeli army base into the Gaza Strip.
