US hostage families set to meet top Biden aide in White House

The families of the seven remaining American-Israeli hostages in Gaza will meet later today with US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan at the White House, a National Security Council spokesperson tells The Times of Israel.
“Sullivan has regularly met with the families of hostages taken by Hamas throughout the past year, and we continue to work to get a deal done as soon as possible to bring the hostages home to their families,” the spokesperson says.
Hostage talks have been at an extended impasse, leading the US to ask Qatar to oust Hamas officials from Doha late last month.
