Some freed British hostages told Algerian TV they were "relieved to be out"
Foreign Secretary William Hague says the Algerian crisis will remain ministers' "top priority" until every British national is accounted for.
Mr Hague tweeted the comment before chairing another meeting of the government's Cobra emergency committee.
About 10 Britons are unaccounted for, and at least one may be held hostage in the crisis at a gas plant in Algeria.
Militants holding the workers are holed up in an internal area and are surrounded by Algerian special forces.
Militant battleThe militants say they are holding seven foreign hostages: one Briton; three Belgians; two Americans; and one Japanese.
In total, about 30 foreigners remain unaccounted for.
One Briton was among 12 Algerian and foreign workers reported killed when militants targeted the desert gas facility.
Mr Hague added: "My thoughts are also with the families of everyone affected, particularly those still waiting for news of their loved ones."
Earlier, 573 Algerians and about 100 of 132 foreigners working at the plant were freed, Algeria said.
A number of freed Britons were been pictured on Algerian TV, where one said he was impressed by Algerian soldiers who battled with the militants.
The Foreign Office said on Friday that Foreign Secretary William Hague was cutting short his trip to Australia to return to the UK.
Prime Minister David Cameron said Britain would do "everything we can to hunt down" those behind the "brutal and savage" attack.
