On Tuesday night, 10 Israeli hostages, adult and teenage women, and two Thai nationals were freed by Hamas.

After an initial medical examination, they will be transferred by the IAF helicopters to hospitals where they will be reunited with their loved ones.

One of the first photographs of the released hostages was of Mia Lemberg, a 17-year-old from Jerusalem, who was seen holding a dog that disappeared on the day of the massacre.

Merav Tal, 53, is reunited with other released hostages, 16-year-old Or Yaakov and his brother Yagil, 12. She is the partner of their father, Yair who is still captured in Gaza.

Clara Marman 64 hosted her sister Gabriela Leimberg, 59, and her daughter Mia, 17 during the holidays in Kibbutz Nir Yitzchak. They were having a birthday celebration the night before when terrorists invaded the kibbutz.

Mia is seen in many photographs holding her dog, which reappeared after going missing from the kibbutz on the day of the massacre.
