The first three hostages to be released are Romi Gonen , Emily Damari and Doron Steinbrecher .

The Red Cross handed them over to the Israel Defense Force in Israel to receive initial wellness checks.

They were expected to reunite with their families once at the hospital.

Around 100 hostages still remain in Gaza , after the rest were released or their bodies recovered.

Israel was expected to release 90 prisoners in exchange for the first three hostages' freedom. "These are critical and emotional hours for the families and for all of Israel ," the Hostages and Missing Families Forum said in a statement. "While we rejoice for each hostage who returns home, we remain deeply concerned for our loved ones who might be left behind. Now, more than ever, we need the public to stand with us until the last hostage returns. We will not leave anyone behind. Only through our united strength can we ensure everyone returns - the living for rehabilitation and the deceased for proper burial.".
