Their ordeal lasted two weeks: two American women were released by Hamas on Friday October 20. Joe Biden, the President of the United States, said he was overjoyed.
Judith, the mother, and Nathalie, the daughter, were released on the evening of Friday October 20. We do not know exactly where Hamas released them. From the United States, their family says they are relieved. “She is very happy and she can’t wait to go home, I haven’t slept in two weeks, I’m going to sleep well tonight”, rejoices Nathalie’s father. The two women were also able to speak with American President Joe Biden, who said he was overjoyed.
Qatar’s mediation allowed their release
Coming from the United States, the two women were on vacation, visiting a kibbutz when they were kidnapped. It was Qatar’s mediation that allowed their release. “We have a feeling of pain and guilt, because there are still so many people to help”, said Nathalie’s father. The two women may be able to provide information on those who are still taken hostage.
