His release comes after Hamas security forces surrounded a group of buildings in Gaza City yesterday. The Gaza City neighborhood is inhabited by the Doghmush clan, which controls the Army of Islam.The shadowy organisation grabbed Johnston in Gaza on March 12.
In a televised news conference with Hamas leaders, Johnston spoke of his harrowing ordeal in solitary confinement, where he was threatened with death, but thanked the Islamist movement, which seized control of the Gaza Strip in a deadly armed take over last month, for securing his release.
