Today, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand released the following statement on the return of the body of Omer Neutra to Israel from Hamas captivity:
“On October 7, 2023, Omer Neutra was kidnapped by Hamas, and for the past two years since that horrific day, my office has worked closely with Omer’s family as they endured unimaginable pain and uncertainty. While this is not the outcome any of us had hoped for, I am relieved that Omer’s body has finally been returned to Israel, allowing his loved ones to lay him to rest with dignity. My heart is with his family and all who mourn his loss. May his memory be a blessing.”
