Moment Hamas frees 11 hostages as Israeli truce extended by two days

Eleven Israelis were freed by Hamas and 33 Palestinians released from prison as the fragile truce in Gaza was extended by two days. Their release came just hours before the deadline for the original four-day ceasefire was set to end. The Israelis were all either women or children and arrived back in Israel just before midnight local time.

Alongside Emma and Yuli was their mother, Sharon, 34. Their father, David, remains a hostage.
