The family of hostage Alon Ohel revealed on Sunday that, for the first time in 492 days, they received a sign of life. "Our Alon is alive, he is wounded and is not receiving treatment," the family said in a statement." The family added: " "We are happy and excited to know that Alon is alive, but we are also shaken and horrified by the difficult physical and mental state that Alon is in, and the abuse that he and the other hostages are still undergoing. Alon has survived hell so far, but he doesn't have time. The release of the hostages should not be postponed. Everyone is humanitarian! Time is running out, we must push for the second stage of the deal and return all the hostages."
