In "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, Jonas was released a twin. His twin, Gabriel, was considered too weak to thrive in the society, so he was scheduled for release. Instead, Jonas decided to take Gabriel and flee from the society.
In the ceremony of the release of the twin in "The Giver," one of the twin babies is released from the community. The baby is most likely euthanized, although this is not explicitly stated in the book. This ceremony is a way for the community to maintain population control and promote sameness.
In The Giver, when someone had a twin in the community, one of the twins was released from the community, which meant they were killed. The release of one twin was carried out to maintain the principle of Sameness in the society and prevent differences among individuals.
Twins are not acceptable in the community in "The Giver" because they disrupt the balance and sameness that the society seeks to maintain. One twin is released, which means they are euthanized. The Chief Elder makes the decision about which twin should be released based on arbitrary reasons like weight and which one was born slightly earlier.
He watched the video of the lower weight twin being 'released' and realized it was killing.
In "The Giver," the twins' fate is determined by the community's rules and system. Twins are not allowed to exist in the community, so one twin is released. The decision is made by the Elders and enforced by the Committee of Elders.
no he leaves but does not get released

euthenization... :(
When people are released in The Giver someone goes ahead and kills them. It is someones job to do that. For example there are twins and the smaller twin gets released so then that way the community will not get confused by who's who. The smaller boy gets killed by putting the baby to sleep with a needle
they kill them
In "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, the number "ones" referred to the age at which children in the community received their assigned roles. At the Ceremony of Twelve, children were assigned their roles and responsibilities in society, not at the age of one.
