Channel 12 reports that when former hostage Emily Damari was told that she’d be released last week, she asked her Hamas captors to first free fellow hostage Kieth Siegel, who is 65 years old and believed to be in worse shape.
Damari’s request was denied.
Siegel is slated to be released later on in the first phase of the hostage deal.
