Three French children released by Hamas in good health, says foreign minister

French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna said that three young French nationals released by Hamas on Monday after being held prisoner in Gaza were in good health.

"We have indirect news and that news is good... It is a great, great relief," Colonna told RTL radio on Tuesday, when asked about the health of Eitan, 12, Erez, 12, and Sahar, 16.

"Three French children were finally freed, now we must work relentlessly for the release of all the other hostages," she said, adding that five French nationals were still missing or believed to be held captive.
