Will & Grace’s Debra Messing, actor Brett Gelman visit Oct. 7 victims at hospital

Hollywood actor Debra Messing, best known for her role as Grace Adler in the hit TV sitcom “Will & Grace,” visits patients at Loewenstein Rehabilitation Hospital in Ra’anana today.

Messing was accompanied by “Stranger Things” star Brett Gelman and his fiancée singer Ari Dayan.

While at the hospital, the three had an emotional meeting with Noam Ben David, a young woman who survived the Hamas massacre at the Supernova music festival near Re’im. Ben David, whose life partner was murdered, shared with the American visitors her experiences from October 7 and spoke about her injuries and recovery.

While in the hospital courtyard, Messing, Gelman and Dayan met Capt. Hadar, an officer in the reserves from the Givati Brigade who fought in Gaza and was seriously injured.

Messing is among Jewish celebrities who have been outspoken in support of Israel and against the rising tide of antisemitism in the US and worldwide. She took to the stage and made a strong speech at the March for Israel on the Mall in Washington, DC on November 14. Her solidarity visit to Israel follows soon after ones by comedians Michael Rapaport and Jerry Seinfeld.
