The Israeli military said Monday it has rescued two hostages during a special operation conducted overnight in Rafah, in southern Gaza.
The hostages are 60-year-old Fernando Simon Marman and 70-year-old Louis Har, who were both taken 128 days ago during Hamas October 7th attack on Israel.
The two are in good medical condition and have been transferred for Sheba Medical Center at Tel HaShomer, said the Israel Defense Forces. The joint operation was done with the Israeli Security Agency and Israel Police, it said.

This is good for the hostages rescued but complicated for the people of Gaza. The Israelis now have proof that at least a portion of the hostages still being held are being held in Rafah which is the last city in Gaza that hasn't been overrun by Israeli forces and where about half the population of the strip has fled to in the face of the Israeli offensive.

I mean, where else would they hold the hostages?
In the ruins where the IDF shoots anything that moves?

So are any news outlets covering what they did there or are we just supposed to cheer for those two hostages being rescued?
This is gross because it's a good thing for those hostages but I don't like the framing of this story.
