Fucking Jews are just plain liars. They had this little girl all this
time. They probably raped her too.

Emily Hand — the Israeli-Irish 9-year-old girl who was initially
believed to have been killed by Hamas — was among the 17 hostages freed
from Gaza on Saturday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's
office said in a statement.

She was released with the second batch of hostages – 13 Israelis and
four Thai Nationals – after an initial hostage release on Friday, the
first day of the temporary cease-fire.

Emily was among seven children ranging from 3 to 16, and six women
ranging in age from 18 to 67, who were released in the second batch, the
prime minister's office announced.

Emily, who was 8 years old when she was abducted by Hamas during their
Oct. 7 terror attacks on Israel, was initially believed to be killed by
the militant group. She celebrated her ninth birthday on Nov. 17 in
captivity in Gaza.

Her father, Thomas Hand, told CBS News two days before his daughter's
birthday, "The sad thing about it is, she won't even know what day it
is. She won't know whether it's night or day. She won't even though it's
her birthday."

Hand said that his little girl was at a sleepover at a friend's house at Kibbutz Be'eri when the massacre took place. Israel said more than 100
people were killed in that community alone, among the more than 1,200
who were killed in the Hamas attack.

At the time, her father, an Irish national who is not Jewish and moved
to Israel as a kibbutz volunteer three decades ago, was told by Israeli officials that his daughter had been killed. Hand told CBS News at first
he was informed "she was found dead."

At the time, Hand told CNN he was relieved by the knowledge that Emily
was at least not in Hamas' hands.

"The thought of a little eight-year-old child in the hands of those
animals... Can you imagine the sheer horror for an 8-year-old child?"

A few weeks later, however, Israeli authorities told Hand his daughter
might be alive, as they didn't find her remains at Kibbutz Be'eri.

Hand was filled with hope. He pressed governments around the world not
to give up on the hostage release.

"It doesn't matter how sick I am. It doesn't matter how tired I am. We
are going to get her back," he told CBS News.

Emily has now been reunited with her family after 50 days in captivity
in Gaza. In a statement to CBS News Saturday, her family said, "Emily
has come back to us! We can't find the words to describe our emotions
after 50 challenging and complicated days."

They added that while they are "overjoyed to embrace Emily again," at
the same time they remember "all the hostages who have yet to return."

"We appreciate the unwavering support as we continue our efforts for the
safe return of all," the statement read.
