Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks with freed hostage Alon Ohel, his office says.
Ohel, who was released from Gaza last month after two years in captivity, did not join his fellow captives on a trip to Washington to meet with US President Donald Trump today.
Netanyahu’s office says that during their conversation, the prime minister asked after Ohel’s “well-being and the process of his rehabilitation, and wished his family the best.”
