Police and civilian volunteers battle Hamas militants while trying to rescue hostages in Ofakim

The mother of a recently rescued hostage in Nuseirat, central Gaza, has made a heartfelt plea to the Israeli government to accept a ceasefire deal in order to secure the release of the remaining hostages in the enclave.

Orit Meir, whose son Almog Meir Jan was successfully rescued over the weekend, expressed her gratitude towards the IDF for their courageous efforts in bringing her son back home safely. She emphasized the importance of extending the same relief to the other 120 families still awaiting the return of their loved ones.

Meir's emotional appeal comes as she shared that her birthday wish had been fulfilled with the safe return of her son. She urged the Israeli government to take action on the proposed deal that could lead to the release of the remaining hostages, emphasizing the urgency of the situation.

Calling for international support, Meir highlighted the need for continued pressure on Hamas to accept the deal and release the remaining hostages promptly. She stressed the importance of securing the safe return of all individuals held captive in Gaza.

The plea from Meir underscores the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region and the desperate need for a resolution to ensure the safe return of all hostages. As efforts continue to negotiate a ceasefire deal, the fate of the remaining hostages hangs in the balance, awaiting a swift and peaceful resolution to the conflict.
