Hostages’ relatives, Noa Argamani invited on stage to meet Trump at rally

Jacob Magid is The Times of Israel's US bureau chief

After detailing the administration’s Mideast vision, envoy Steve Witkoff proceeds to introduce relatives of some of the hostages still in Gaza, including the parents of American hostages.

Former hostage Noa Argamani is also part of the group who are called onto the stage at the Capital One Arena.

Each of them is wearing a yellow scarf to raise awareness to the hostage crisis. The father of American-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander is also wearing a red MAGA hat.

Trump shakes hands with each of them, and they use the opportunity to thank the president for his efforts to bring the new ceasefire deal across the finish line.

The crowd gives a standing ovation to the families as Trump takes the stage and proceeds to give an entire rally speech as the hostages’ families stand behind him.
