Israeli women and an 80-year-old male hostage, along with 5 Thai nationals, were released in Gaza, but Israel delayed its part of the exchange, accusing Hamas of "shocking scenes" at one handover.

Arbel Yehoud, 29, and Gadi Moses, 80, both civilians, an Israeli female soldier Agam Berger, 20, and five Thai citizens were released among massive crowds in the north and the south of the Gaza Strip. Later, they crossed into Israel where the Israelis were reunited with their families, while the Thai workers were met by members of the consulate.
