A mother released from captivity in Gaza with her young son told relatives that they had slept on chairs pushed together.
The freed hostages have not spoken directly to the news media and most are still being treated in private areas of Israeli hospitals.
Relatives who have spoken or met with some of the released hostages said all seemed to have spent their weeks in captivity totally cut off from the outside world, and to have returned thinner than before.
Adva Adar’s grandmother, Yaffa Adar, 85, was among the hostages released on Friday.
The Or siblings were taken hostage with their father, Dror, who is believed to still be held in Gaza.
