Milan, 22 Feb. (LaPresse) – “The completion of an agreement on the hostages is a humane, moral and Jewish act. As we have heard from the testimonies of the hostages who have returned in recent weeks, they are all in a ”humanitarian’ condition that requires their immediate return’. Israeli President Isaac Herzog said in a statement: ‘On this heartbreaking morning, as we received the painful news of the identification of Shiri (Bibas)’s body, we are glad to see Omer Wenkert, Elia Cohen, Tal Shohem and Omer Shem Tov after 505 days, as well as Avera Mengistu after more than a decade, and soon Hisham al-Sayed too’, adds Herzog, emphasising that “they are all returning from the depths of hell to their beloved families, who fought with all their might to see them home”.
