In a daring and covert operation on Saturday morning, the IDF carried out one of its most heroic rescues, freeing four Israeli hostages – Noa Argamani, Shlomi Ziv, Almog Meir Jean, and Andrei Kozlov – from Hamas captivity in Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp. The operation involved elite forces from Israel’s counterterrorism unit and security agency infiltrating apartments to extract the hostages amid intense fighting. Additional IDF brigades assisted in the rescue of the hostages.
During the hostage rescue operation, Commander Arnon Zamora was killed. In his death, he saved four hostages.

We praise God for the return of the four hostages and the success of the operation.

Please pary for the hostages who have been rescued from captivity, hoping for a swift recovery for their emotional well-being. Specifically, remember Almog Meir, whose father tragically passed away the day before his release without the chance to meet him, and Noa Argaman, whose mother is in the advanced stages of cancer.

Please pray for the family of Arnon Zamora, who was killed in the rescue operation, for their comfort.

Please pray for wisdom for the political and military leadership that they may succeed in all future actions, whether in military operations or negotiations, to release all the other hostages who have been in captivity for over eight months.
