The IDF announced that Arbel Yehud is currently airborne with her family aboard an Israeli Air Force helicopter, en route to the hospital where she will reunite with additional family members and receive medical care.
Agam Berger reunited with her fellow hostages Karina Ariev, Daniella Gilboa, Liri Albag, and Naama Levy, who were released last week.
Liri Albag, a fellow IDF observer released in the previous hostage deal, shared details with Agam’s mother about her daughter’s struggle in captivity.

Agam Berger was not originally supposed to serve in Nahal Oz, but was sent there a day before she was abducted. A significant portion of her captivity was spent with her four fellow female field observers who have already been released – Liri Albag, Karina Ariev, Daniella Gilboa, and Naama Levy.
IDF observer Agam Berger, 19, reunited with her parents in Israel, while Arbel Yehoud, 29, and Gadi Moses, 80, were handed over to the Red Cross amid surging crowds in Gaza.
Dr. Sefi Mendelovich, Deputy Director General of the Health Ministry, confirmed the returning hostages' stable condition following their initial medical evaluations.
Agam had been on duty for just one day. Arbel was abducted with her partner and lost her brother, who was murdered. Gadi was the first hostage among six members of the Katz-Moses-Asher family kidnapped to Gaza on October 7. The next release is expected on Saturday.
