Attack on october 7. Israel says he was rescued in what they are calling a complex operation. Lucy williamson sent this report from the soroka medical centre in southern israel. Surrounded again by sunlight, by the sound of hebrew. Farhan alkadi, a 52 year old bedouin israeli, snatching a second chance at life. Crouched on the floor of a military helicopter, after 326 days in captivity, a smile. The start of his journey back home. At israel s soroka hospital, his last few moments in hiding. A wall of israeli soldiers shielding him from the world he left ten months ago. From a tunnel in gaza to an israeli ambulance in a couple of hours. His family racing the last few metres to greet him.

Asks of you, as well, to accept short term pain for long term good, the difficult trade off for the genuine solution. And i know that after all that you have been through, that is a really big ask and really difficult to hear. That is not the position we should be in. Its not the position i want to be in, but we have to end the politics of the easy answer that solves nothing. Lets speak to our political correspondent, nick eardley, at westminster.
