Hostage soldier Agam Berger is seen being led by Hamas operatives to a stage in northern Gaza’s Jabalia to be handed over to the Red Cross.
Berger is dressed in olive green clothes meant to look like IDF fatigues. She is surrounded by armed, masked Hamas operatives.
She gives a small smile and waves before she is taken off the stage to a Red Cross vehicle.
She appears in relatively good physical health.

In a few moments, she will be brought to IDF troops in Gaza, after 482 days in Hamas captivity, and be escorted out of the Strip.
