Arbel Yehoud, Gadi Mozes and five Thai hostages in hands of IDF inside Gaza

Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent

Former hostages Arbel Yehoud, Gadi Mozes, and five Thai nationals are now in the hands of IDF troops in the Gaza Strip, the military says.

The Palestinian Islamic Jihad handed over the seven hostages to the Red Cross in Khan Younis, and they were then taken to Israeli forces in the Netzarim Corridor area.

They will be brought out of Gaza to an army facility near the border community of Re’im for an initial checkup.

Chanel 12 quotes Israeli sources as saying Yehoud and Mozes are in “good health” after the chaotic transfer.
