Yafa Adar, an 85-year-old Israeli woman who was one of the first hostages to be released by Hamas, has been released from hospital.
The facility posted a photo to social media of Adar with flowers and waving farewell to hospital staff, who applauded and waved Israeli flags as she departed.
Adar was kidnapped from kibbutz Nir Oz and was the subject of a viral video of hostages being driven into Gaza in a golf kart by armed men.
Her granddaughter told the BBC yesterday that she had thought many members of the family had been killed, and it was an emotional moment when she “saw them and realised they were alive” after being released.
