Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that whoever returns at least one hostage to Israel will be able to safely leave the Gaza Strip with his family, and will also receive five million dollars.

"I appeal to those who want to get out of this situation. Whoever brings us (at least one) hostage will be able to safely leave the Gaza Strip with his family. We will also give five million dollars in exchange (for the hostage). Choose, the choice is yours," Netanyahu said during a visit to Gaza.

On October 7, 2023, Israel was subjected to an unprecedented rocket attack from the Gaza Strip. After that, the militants of the Palestinian Hamas movement entered the border areas, opened fire on military and civilians, and took more than 200 hostages. According to the authorities, about 1.2 thousand people were killed on the Israeli side, reports ria.ru.
