BEIRUT (AA) - The Red Cross received five Lebanese detainees from Israel on Tuesday evening, weeks after their capture by the Israeli military during the recent war, state news agency NNA reported.

The detainees set free were then transported to the Lebanese Italian Hospital in Tyre, a city in southern Lebanon.

Earlier in the day, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced approval to release the hostages as “a goodwill gesture” toward Lebanon’s newly elected President Joseph Aoun, according to a statement from his office.
