Thai Ambassador to Israel Pannabha Chandrara visits Assaf Harofeh Medical Center, where 14 Thai nationals recently released from Gaza captivity are being treated.
The hostages, 13 men and one woman, were released on Friday evening and last night as part of a deal arranged directly between Thailand and Iran, and not part of the ongoing truce/hostage deal agreed to by Israel.
Dr. Osnat Levtzion-Korach, director of the hospital, says that “due to the fact that the returnees from Thailand don’t have family in Israel, we are treating and caring for them here in a special manner and are providing all their medical and personal needs.”
