Stay strong Palestinians. Greetings from Christian Serbia.

People with hate in their heart, are confuse seeing this.

The way she shook his hand and said peace 😢and he just looked at her and waved as if he just wanted the same sad situation on both sides really

[wvjvxxb]

Interesting the elderly woman shook the palestinians hand showing her gratitude towards him and the media didn’t focus on that

[ketaraod]

the full interview on (חדשות 13) she said that they were treated like humans, had the best food and medical care and the cleanest sheets for sleeping! She also said hamas soldiers were so polite and respectful. and they were very friendly

[ACE-frsf]

You can tell the lady’s were not treated bad by that gesture she made to the guy.

[BlackJ]

U can tell... some of this men Has peace & freedom fighting in their hearts, show in how they treat captives... others just have anger & rage show on how they treat the civilians

[Weah]

Some context: this is Yocheved Lifshitz, an inspiring Peace activist, that has been helping people from Gaza get medical care for decades.

[ayamohammed]

even though they were taken as hostages, they were not hurt but treated decently. And maybe even changed their minds about their supposed enemy

[jeremiah]

So far, none of the released hostages look like they've been mistreated.

Is it surprising that Israel does not want the hostages to be released?😂

[xoxamyyyx]

I didnt expect her to shake his hand 😰peace ❤️ and thats really bad that they rejected to take hostages

[bisrrwb]

Sometimes humane happens and it is a warm sight. This should always be, since the rest only says nothing but grief, and then nothing at all. The world cannot speak it is cornered at every angle as an elderly dragged from a bed, is now a normal, however too is the kindness where there was none.

[louishernandez]

What is this supposed to make up for what they caused ..?

0:20 Best images I've ever seen! Why can't we support each other like brothers and sisters instead of chasing one another like monsters?

[marcchristopherdon]

Don't forget those children in the kibbutzs.

0:17 The body language is interesting. HAMAS escorted these elderly ladies at a gentle pace, she actively turns around to first wave goodbye to him then turns her hand to want to shake his. She actually spoke a sentence to him, not just one word (by way of some kind of parting words) but we are only told about that one word: "Shalom/Peace". Whatever she said provoked a smile form the assisting red-cross lady. This was a very touching moment. Please show the whole video to the world.
Right from the out-set I reserved judgment about the atrocity propaganda Israel was putting forward about HAMAS. We should demand verification before being lead to all-out destruction of the Gaza population.

[Sevendandra]

Release the husbands as well. I'm sure these elderly couple need each other, not to mention they have no right to kidnap them in the first place 😢

[DapiferAdLignumVitae]

The walking into the camera shot....I'm not sure how I feel about set up footage in this context...

[JediFarce]

Why did you take them hostage in the first place?
