Incoming Defense Minister Benny Gantz spoke this morning with the families of two Israeli men and two fallen IDF soldiers who are being held by the Hamas terror group in Gaza, promising to return them to Israel, his office said.
These conversations with the families of Hisham al-Sayed, Abera Mengistu, Staff Sgt. Oron Shaul and Lt. Hadar Goldin were Gantz’s first meetings with people outside his ministry since he informally entered his position yesterday.
“During the conversations, Gantz expressed his dedication to bringing them home,” his office said.
