Summary
85-year-old Yocheved Lifshitz described being kidnapped from her kibbutz and taken to a tunnel in Gaza as going through “hell.” Lifshitz is one of two Israeli hostages released from Hamas custody on Monday. Sources tell CNN that there are ongoing talks underway to try to secure the release of a large number of hostages still in Gaza. Yocheved’s daughter Sharone Lifschitz tells Anderson Cooper her mom’s return is a “wonderful moment” but she doesn't want people to forget about the hundreds of others still missing. Plus, the largest hospital in Gaza is warning that it will become a “mass grave” if fuel runs out. CNN Chief International Correspondent Clarissa Ward joins AC360 from Cairo for an update on the humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza.
