In a chilling propaganda display, Hamas handed released hostages bizarre āgift bagsā featuring photos of their captivity, a commemorative Gaza photo, and gold-gilded ācertificates of release.ā The released hostages, Romi Gonen, Emily Damari, and Doron Steinbrecher, described the gesture as a ācynical gameā aimed at psychological manipulation. Video footage shared by Hamas shows the hostages being escorted through Gaza City by a motorcade of armed, masked terrorists, with crowds mobbing the vehicles. Eventually handed over to the Red Cross, the hostages were transported to safety, marking the first phase of a cease-fire deal.
