President Biden celebrated Israel’s successful rescue of four hostages from Gaza, vowing that the U.S. “won’t stop” until all of the hostages are returned and a cease-fire is reached in the enclave.
Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron praised the operation during their joint international press conference on Saturday in Paris.

Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a statement vowed to continue the fighting until all hostages are freed.
The operation was “daring in nature, planned brilliantly, and executed in an extraordinary fashion”, Israel’s defence minister Yoav Gallant said.
[...]
The army said it freed Noa Argamani, 26; Almog Meir Jan, 22; Andrey Kozlov, 27; and Shlomi Ziv, 41, in a daytime operation in the heart of Nuseirat, raiding two locations at once while under fire. All were well, the military said. They were taken by helicopter for medical checks and reunions with loved ones after 246 days held.
Argamani had been one of the most widely recognised hostages after being taken, like the three others, from the Nova music festival targeted by Hamas during its 7 October raid on Israel.

Something tells me the Israelis see that fatal rescue result as a feature, not a bug.
