Health Ministry: Three hostages slated for release tomorrow will be brought to hospitals in central Israel

The Health Ministry says that the three hostages, Ohad Ben Ami, 56, Eli Sharabi, 52, and Or Levy, 34, scheduled to be released on Saturday morning from Gaza will arrive at either Ichilov Hospital or Sheba Medical Center after an initial medical assessment. Barzilai Medical Center and Soroka Medical Center will be prepared to provide immediate medical care if needed.

Medical teams and professionals at the hospitals are ready to receive them and to do everything necessary to provide medical, psychological, and any other required care.

The ministry reiterates its call for the public to exercise personal responsibility in managing exposure to news content and videos from Gaza, especially for children.

The ministry urges the public not to spread rumors regarding the hostages and to rely only on official sources for updates.

The ministry also reminds the public that these are sensitive moments for the returnees and their families, asking that their privacy be respected.

Protecting the privacy of the returnees is essential to ensuring their transition from captivity back to life, recovery and rehabilitation.
