NEW YORK – After Israel retrieved the body of Ran Gvili, the last remaining hostage held in Gaza, Amb. Ronald S. Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress, released the following statement:
“Today, Israel has brought home Ran Gvili, a young man who gave his life defending others on October 7. With his return, there are now no Israeli citizens being held captive in Gaza for the first time since 2014. After years of anguish, this moment brings a measure of closure to his family and to the Jewish people.
“We honor Ran’s bravery and his unwavering commitment to protecting innocent lives. Now, the international community must ensure that Hamas is never allowed to regain control of Gaza. The World Jewish Congress stands ready to support Phase Two of President Trump’s plan to end this war and secure lasting peace in the region.”
