In the opening segment, Israeli forces have announced the release of 4 hostages who were kidnapped during the Rave on October 7th, among them, Norah Mani.

Following this announcement, Minister Beni Guns has canceled a press conference scheduled for this evening, possibly related to Netanyahu’s ultimatum to draft a post-war action plan for Gaza by June 8th.
