The Israeli military recovered the bodies of two hostages, Judih Weinstein Haggai and Gadi Haggai, who were taken by Hamas during the October 7, 2023 attacks. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed condolences for the couple, who both held Canadian and U.S. citizenship. The operation to recover their bodies took place in Khan Younis, and the news comes amidst the ongoing situation of 56 remaining hostages. The Hostages Families Forum Headquarters released a statement expressing gratitude for the development, emphasizing the state's duty to bring all hostages home.
Together with all the citizens of Israel, my wife and I extend our heartfelt condolences to the dear families. Our hearts ache for the most terrible loss.
Their return reminds us all that it is the state's duty to bring everyone home, so that we, the families, together with all the people of Israel, can begin the process of healing and recovery.
