The occupation authorities announced the release of an Israeli female soldier who had been detained by Hamas since October 7.

A joint statement by the occupation army and the Shin Bet said: “Tonight, army conscript Uri Magedish was freed after she was kidnapped by Hamas.”

The statement added, “The soldier was medically examined, and she is in good condition, and she met her family.”

The statement continued, "The IDF and the Shin Bet will continue to work to release the kidnapped people."

Hamas denies

On the other hand, a member of the Hamas Political Bureau, Izzat Al-Rishq, denied what the occupation army announced regarding the release of the female soldier.

Al-Rishq said, “With regard to the allegations of the terrorist Zionist occupation about the liberation of a female soldier, we confirm that such an announcement aims to disrupt the video of the female prisoners that Al-Qassam broadcast today, which caused a great shock to the Zionist community.”

He added, "These allegations are an attempt to escape the pressure that the file of occupation detainees represents on Netanyahu and his government."

He continued, "No one believes the false Zionist narratives, and even the Zionist community itself does not believe its leaders, and what the resistance will say is the final say."
