In Israel, Jerry Seinfeld meets with freed hostages, families of abductees in Gaza

Comedian Jerry Seinfeld arrived in Israel this morning, and met tonight with families of Israeli hostages held in the Gaza Strip as well as with hostages recently released from captivity since Hamas’s October 7 massacres in southern Israel.

Channel 13 reports that the meeting lasted two hours longer than scheduled, and Seinfeld was “sensitive” and “caring.”

Seinfeld, wearing a symbolic dog tag around his neck meant to draw attention to the plight of the hostages, waved to a camera as he got into a van following the meeting, but did not comment.

The channel says the Jewish-American entertainer plans to visit the southern border region and possibly meet with Israeli soldiers.
