In a stirring Passover message, Israeli President Isaac Herzog called for the release of the Israeli hostages held for more than a year and a half in Gaza:

Israeli President Isaac Herzog and his wife, Michal, on Monday visited the family of twin brothers Ziv and Gali Berman, who were abducted by Hamas terrorists from Kibbutz Kfar Aza on Oct. 7, 2023, and have been held in Gaza for 557 days.

In a video message released during the visit, Herzog called for their immediate release, describing the brothers as “wonderful and caring young Israelis” held “in the dungeons of Gaza.”
