Released hostage soldier Edan Alexander is now in the hands of IDF troops in the Gaza Strip, the military says.
Hamas handed Alexander over to the Red Cross in Khan Younis without a ceremony. He was then taken to Israeli forces inside Gaza.
He will be brought out of the Strip to an army facility near the border community of Re’im for an initial checkup.
