Hostages Yarden Bibas, Ofer Kalderon and Keith Siegel were freed after 484 days in Hamas captivity, in exchange for 183 Palestinian terrorists—18 serving life sentence, 54 serving lengthy terms and 111 arrested since Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, massacre.
Ofer kalderon was kidnapped to Gaza with his children Sahar and Erez.
The kids were freed in November 2023. They had to leave their father behind.
Today after 15 months, Ofer reunited with his family. His daughter says to him: “dad, it’s ok, everyone’s alive”.I couldn’t stop… pic.twitter.com/CGlBjqewhP

Yarden Bibas is finally reunited with his father and sister—but his wife, Shiri, and their children, Ariel and Kfir, are not with him.
There is no word in the dictionary to describe this kind of emotion.
