The Prime Minister’s Office and the Hostages Families Forum both confirm that the hostages to be released from Gaza tomorrow are Eli Sharabi, Or Levy and Ohad Ben Ami.

Hamas conveyed the names a short time ago, and the families have been updated.

Sharabi, 52, was kidnapped from Kibbutz Beeri when Hamas terrorists rampaged through southern Israel on October 7, 2023. His wife and daughters were murdered in their home’s safe room and he and his brother Yossi were taken captive. Yossi has since been confirmed dead and Hamas is holding his body.

Levy, 34, was kidnapped from the Supernova rave near Kibbutz Re’im on October 7. His wife Eynav was killed, and their now three-year-old son Almog has been staying with his grandparents since.

Ben Ami, 56, was also kidnapped from Be’eri. His wife Raz Ben Ami was also kidnapped, and released as part of a week-long ceasefire in November 2023.

“We have both a sacred duty and moral right to bring all our brothers and sisters home. We will not give up or stop at any stage until all hostages return home under the current agreement — down to the very last one — the living for rehabilitation and the deceased for proper burial,” the Hostages Forum says in a statement.
