U.S. Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs Adam Boehler welcomed the release of Edan Alexander from Hamas captivity. In a post on X, he wrote 'Edan Alexander is free! He's home after 584 days in captivity in Gaza. The leadership of President Donald Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Special Middle East Envoy Steve Witkoff made this possible. We will free the remaining 58 hostages.' He added U.S. and Israeli flag emojis to the post.
