Freed hostage Ohad Ben Ami’s daughter posts clip of herself in IDF uniform, walking to embrace him

Former hostage Ohad Ben Ami’s daughter Natalie shares a video of herself in IDF uniform, walking happily toward her father after he was released from Hamas captivity in Gaza this morning after 491 days.

He walks toward her, clapping, and the two embrace.

“Finally I can wear my uniform with pride,” she writes in a post on social media, having asked not to be photographed in military garb since she began her service eight months ago for fears her father would be harmed in captivity as a result.
