The Arabic-language Al-Araby channel publishes footage showing Red Cross vehicles departing from the hostage transfer point in southern Gaza, on their way to rendezvous with IDF forces. A total of 13 hostages were transferred to the Red Cross in the south of the Strip, meaning that all 20 living hostages in Gaza have now left Hamas captivity.
