Four hostages kidnapped by Hamas from the Nova music festival on 7th October have been rescued in a daylight raid in central Gaza, as scores of Palestinians were killed by Israeli attacks in the same area.
Noa Argamani, 26, Almog Meir Jan, 22, Andrei Kozlov, 27, and Shlomi Ziv, 41, were freed during a "high-risk, complex mission" from two separate buildings in the Nuseirat area, the Israel Defence Forces said.
The IDF said the released hostages were all in good health. They were reunited with their families at a medical centre near Tel Aviv.
Dozens of Palestinians, including children, were killed by Israeli forces in the area where the operation took place.
Two hospitals in Gaza said they had recorded 70 bodies while Hamas's government media office said at least 210 people had been killed.
Israel Defence Forces spokesman Daniel Hagari said Cogat, the Israeli defence ministry body in charge of civilian policy in the occupied West Bank and Gaza, estimated there had been fewer than 100 casualties.

While a formal timeline for it to join the military alliance was not agreed at a summit in Washington DC, the military alliance's 32 members said they had "unwavering" support for Ukraine's war effort.
Nato has also announced further integration with Ukraine's military and members have committed €40bn ($43.3bn, £33.7bn) in aid in the next year, including F-16 fighter jets and air defence support.

More than 1,000 people are now reported to have died due to extreme heat in Saudi Arabia, while taking part in the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca. Temperatures have reached close to 52C at the city’s Grand Mosque.
Many of those who have succumbed to the heat have been on unofficial trips, often without access to cooling measures including water stops and air conditioned areas.
Around two million people take part in the Hajj but each year tens of thousands of pilgrims make unofficial journeys as they cannot afford expensive official permits.

The world's most famous shipwreck has been revealed as never seen before.
The first full-sized digital scan of the Titanic, which lies 3,800m (12,500ft) down in the Atlantic, has been created using deep-sea mapping.
It provides a unique 3D view of the entire ship, enabling it to be seen as if the wayer has been drained.
The hope is that this will shed new light on exactly what happened to the liner, which sank in 1912 - killing 1,500 people.

Paris's mayor Anne Hidalgo has swam in the River Seine in a bid to show the water is clean enough for Olympic events.
Three Olympic and Paralympic events are set to be held in the Seine, including the triathlon, marathon swimming and Para-triathlon - though concerns were raised previously about the safety of the water.
Swimming in the Seine has been banned for a century because of the filthy water, caused by upstream industrial sewage and sanitation demands.
City swimming is set to be one of the major legacies of this summer's Olympic Games in France, with three open-air swimming areas set to be accessible from the quayside by 2025.

Spain has become one of Europe’s prime renewable energy hotspots, with a sharp increase in installation of solar and wind generators over the last few years.
However despite the successful move towards green energy sources, electricity consumption has been dropping.
This has triggered concern this could lead to a crisis in the industry.

Powerful Hurricane Beryl has hit Jamaica with heavy winds and rain, damaging buildings and felling trees on the Caribbean island.
The category four storm brought winds of up to 130mph (215km/h) on Jamaica's southern coast.
Social media photos show floodwater pouring down streets, with roofs ripped off by the wind.
The storm has killed at least seven people so far as it sweeps across the Caribbean. It has now been downgraded to a category three storm, and is due to make landfall in Mexico later on Friday.

Joe Biden and Donald Trump have clashed over the war in Ukraine, during the first televised debate of the 2024 US presidential election campaign.
Trump claimed that Russia and Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine because he saw how incompetent Biden's team was in their exit from the war in Afghanistan.
Biden defended his foreign policy record, and claimed that Trump told Putin to do "whatever you want".

The attempted assassination of Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania exposed a series of security lapses that allowed the gunman to mount his assassination attempt.
The gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks was able to access a roof around 130 meters from the podium where Mr Trump was speaking.
It’s the job of the US Secret Service to protect sitting and former presidents. Somehow the gunman managed to breach the security perimeter with a rifle and reach an elevated position close to Mr Trump.
Video of the attack and the accounts of eyewitnesses suggest that members of the crowd became aware of the threat before the police and other security officials and attempted to alert them to the danger It was only when the gunman opened fire that officials recognised the danger and responded, with Thomas Crooks shot dead by armed officers.

A children's hospital has been seriously damaged in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv by Russian strikes, as 24 people were killed across the country in an early morning barrage.
At least 10 people were killed in Kyiv by the rare daytime attack, including two who died at the Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital, which sustained major damage during the blast.
Vitaliy Klitschko, Kyiv's mayor, said the bombardment was "one of the the worst attacks" on the capital since the start of the war.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who is visiting Poland where he is expected to sign a security pact, said Russia must face consequences for its attacks on civilians.

A court in Moscow has issued an arrest warrant for the widow of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny on charges of extremism, according to state media.
The charges brought against Yulia Navalnaya, who lives outside Russia, in absentia are to do with her alleged "participation in an extremist society", Tass news agency said.
The opposition leader - Russia's most significant for the past decade - died in an Arctic Circle jail of natural causes, according to Russian authorities.
Mr Navalny had been serving 19 years on extremism charges that were widely seen as politically motivated.
But his widow accuses Russian President Vladimir Putin of killing him.

China has fiercely rejected accusations from Nato - whose leaders are meeting in Washington - that it's helping maintain Russia's war in Ukraine.
Beijing has described Nato's behaviour as "unreasonable", and urged nations to reflect on the "root causes" of the war.
The Nato gathering has mostly focused on support for Ukraine - but China's role has also come under the spotlight.
The military alliance said Beijing had become Russia's "decisive enabler", with its "large-scale support for Russia’s defense industrial base".
On Thursday, Nato will hold talks with the leaders of several Asia-Pacific countries about China.
Nato Secretary General Stoltenberg will hold a media briefing later in the day.

Protesters have taken to the streets in Nairobi, Kenya, to challenge the government over a series of unpopular tax proposals - including a 16% levy on bread.
On Tuesday, hundreds of protestors - most of them younger people - braved tear gas lobbed by police to march through the capital, Nairobi, bringing the city's central business district to a standstill.
The government had earlier defended the tax hikes, which had been projected to raise $2.7bn (£2.1bn), saying they were needed to cut reliance on external borrowing.
MPs are now debating the revised bill and are expected to vote on it next Tuesday.

Talks between the Taliban and the international community in Qatar today will centre on measures to combat the production of illegal drugs and the economy.
The UN-led meeting is the first to include Taliban officials since they seized power in Afghanistan more than three years ago.
However, the absence of women at the Taliban’s insistence has prompted criticism from rights groups and activists.
The Taliban’s spokesperson said they wanted to engage, but urged others not to interfere in issues they describe as internal, including women’s rights.
