Michal Herzog, the wife of President Isaac Herzog, meets with several released hostages and their family members.
She meets with released hostages Keith Siegel and Doron Steinbrecher, and the Families of Romi Gonen, Agam Berger and Emily Damari.
Herzog tells them that Israel is obligated to bring back all the hostages.
Aviva Siegel, Keith’s wife, who was also taken hostage and returned in an earlier hostage deal, tells Herzog there is an urgency to bring back all the captives.
“Hearing from Keith about what he went through, knowing that I was there too, and realizing that others are still being held—it’s unbearable, simply unbearable. We must bring them all home,” she says.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
