Krivoi can be seen in the back of a Red Cross jeep in Gaza and then in a photo after he was handed over to Israeli officials.
Krivoi was released tonight as part of a separate deal between Hamas and Russia, after President Vladimir Putin requested it.
The 25-year-old was born in Israel as the youngest sibling in a Russian family.
He was working as a sound technician at the Supernova festival on October 7 when Hamas terrorists stormed the gathering, killing and abducting hundreds.
Krivoi’s brother said that Roni is very strong mentally and physically, the kind of person who can keep everyone’s spirits up.
