With bated breath, the families of the hostages, Israeli society, Jews around the world, and the international community watched the release of three Israeli women from Hamas, following the first hours of the ceasefire in Gaza, and the subsequent release of 90 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons.
Romi Gonen, 24, Emily Damari, 28, and Doron Steinbrecher, 31, returned to Israel after 471 days of hostage-taking in the bowels of Gaza, at the hands of brutal terrorists who had kidnapped the first from the Nova music festival and the other two from Kibbutz Kfar Aza on 7.10.2023.
At this time, our thoughts and prayers are focused on the 94 hostages still being held in Gaza, without knowing how many and who are still alive. They must all return!
The Central Israeli Council of Greece welcomes the Israel-Hamas agreement, and we Greek Jews share the joy of the families in Israel for the return of the first hostages after 15 months of captivity. We hope that the process will proceed smoothly so that all the hostages can return to their families. At the same time, we express the wish that the successful implementation of the agreement will form the basis for the beginning of healing and reconstruction with the goal of peace.
