There are cheers in Hostage Square as people watch a feed of the women being handed over to the Red Cross.
Some people are crying, and lots are holding up pictures of the hostages that have been freed.
“It’s amazing. They’re amazing. Did you see them stand and smile?” one woman in the crowd says.
“Just excitement,” another says when asked how she’s feeling.
