The Israeli hostages will be received into Israel by well-stocked and highly functional hospitals with significant allied health supports. The same cannot be said of the Palestinian hostages when they return to Gaza.

Graduating to a hard top next session.
It’s fun to learn new things! Even if you look like a goober at the beginning. 🏄🏽♀️
