Dramatic Israeli Hostage Rescue Leaves a Grim Toll in Gaza

 

In a daring operation, Israel successfully freed four hostages from the Gaza Strip. The hostages, including Noa Argamani, became symbols of hope during their eight-month captivity by Hamas.

As the conflict persists, the toll on civilians remains a grim reality.
