Tens of thousands gather with released Israeli hostages in Tel Aviv, call for release of victims

 

Thousands of people gathered late Saturday night with hostages released by Hamas and demanded the immediate release of hostages still in Gaza.

"I come to thank you because without you I wouldn't be here. Now we have to get my (son) Sasha and everyone back," said freed hostage Yelena Trupanov, 50, during the event in Tel Aviv.

Hamas released more than 100 hostages during last week's ceasefire, but Israel says the terrorist organization reneged on an agreement to release all remaining women and children.

About 140 hostages are in Hamas custody in Gaza.
