Hamas has released the names of all the 3 hostages to be released on Friday under the ceasefire agreement. Their names are Keith Seagal (65), Yorden Bibas (35) and Offer Calderone (54). After the October 7 attack, these three were taken hostage to Gaza by Hamas’s fighters.
The Israeli Defense Force has confirmed these three names. The Israeli PM Office said that the families of the hostages have been informed about the release. A total of 10 Israeli and 5 Thai hostages have been released since the agreement was effective last week.
Yorden Bibas is also the youngest of the youngest hostess’s father. On October 7, when Hamas’s fighters kidnapped Yorden’s son Kefir, he was just 9 months old. He was then the youngest hostage in Hamas’s possession.
Israel accused of killing Yorden Bibas’s wife and children The hostage Yorden Bibas was kidnapped with his wife Shiri and two sons Kefir and Ariel with Neer Oz Kibutz. Bibas’s wife Shiri and his two children have died during the possession of Hamas.
