American Keith Siegel Among Hostages Freed in Gaza After 480 Days

WASHINGTON (CHATNEWSTV) — Three hostages, including American Keith Siegel, have been released from Hamas captivity in Gaza, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Saturday.

“We are grateful that he will be with his wife, Aviva, again, more than 480 days after they were taken from their home in Israel,” Rubio said in a statement.

President Donald Trump has prioritized the safety of Americans abroad, Rubio added, vowing that the U.S. will continue working with Israel to reunite all remaining hostages with their families.

“The United States will not rest until every hostage is returned and peace is secured in the region,” Rubio said.
