Not only the hostages of Israel and Palestine were freed due to the ceasefire, these 25 people from across the seven seas also got freedom.

After the Gaza ceasefire, Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners have been released. During the Gaza war, 25 people were taken hostage not only in Israel and Palestine but also hundreds of kilometers away, who had nothing to do with this war. In protest against the heavy bombing in Gaza and in support of Hamas, Yemen's Houthi rebels had started action against ships belonging to Israel and its alliance countries in the Red Sea.
On 19 November 2023, the Houthis seized an Israeli ship called the 'Galaxy Leader' during an operation in the Red Sea. The operation, carried out as part of Yemen's military support for Gaza, resulted in the detention of 25 people aboard the ship and they were in the custody of the Houthis for more than a year. Let us tell you that the ship had all foreign staff instead of Israel, mostly from the Philippines. All have been released after the Gaza ceasefire.
Hostages released after talks with Hamas
Yemen's Supreme Political Council on Wednesday announced the release of the crew of the Galaxy Leader ship. The crew has been released under the mediation of Oman. The council said in its statement, "The Yemeni government in Sana'a has released the crew of the ship detained in the context of supporting Gaza, following communication with Hamas and efforts of the Sultanate of Oman."
This move is being described as a sign of support from the Houthis for the ceasefire agreement in Gaza. The Houthis had already made it clear to the mediators that the release of the crew is in the hands of Hamas and they will release them as soon as they get a signal from Hamas.
The Houthis have released all the hostages by giving them gifts and Palestinian keffiyehs. It can also be seen in the video released on social media that the entire group of chakras is very happy and is thanking Yemen for taking care of them.
The Houthis allowed the International Red Cross to visit the crew several times to ensure they were in good health and were treated humanely while in custody. The crew was also allowed to conduct interviews with international media during these visits.
