French President Emmanuel Macron says that all his heart is with “the family and loved ones of our compatriot Ohad Yahalomi.”
Yahalomi, a French-Israeli dual national, was taken captive by Hamas terrorists from Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7, 2023, after he engaged in a gun battle with gunmen in his house and was shot in the leg.
“In these suspended hours of pain and anguish, the nation stands by their side,” writes Macron on X.
Yahalomi is among the last four hostages — all presumed dead — who are yet to be released in the first phase of the ceasefire deal.
