Released hostage Yarden Bibas, who lost his family members who were killed in captivity, posted on Instagram that 'On the 76th Independence Day, I was in a tunnel. On the 77th Independence Day, the war continues and there are still hostages in captivity, only this time I'm at home.' Bibas also posted a photo with the caption 'I have no independence because they are still there,' adding: 'This year I cannot celebrate my independence because I have brothers still in captivity and my heart is still there with them. I won't be able to recover or rest until they return. Please let the phrase 'to be a free people in our land' be true for everyone.'
