1. They later said that was out of 100 hostages which definitely gives it a different feel then
the idea of 5-6 Israeli hostages alone.

3. Which news?
Is it an Israeli newspaper or something? Haaretz? 'Cause otherwise it's a little strange to talk about 1/20 of the hostages.

'One terrorist killed, four still fighting at Chabad House'
By DAVID HOROVITZ AND JPOST STAFF

One terrorist has been killed in the Chabad House in Mumbai, but four others remain inside and are holding off rescue efforts to free Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg, his wife Rivka Holtzberg, and others who have been held hostage since multiple attacks rocked the city late Wednesday night, Reuters reported on Thursday morning.

Earlier, the kidnappers apparently released the couple's young boy and his nanny, who said that the rabbi and his wife were alive but unconscious. Indian television showed footage of the young boy leaving the building with the nanny. The rabbi's mother confirmed to Army Radio that her one-year-old grandson had been released.
