Families of American hostages held in Gaza are set to meet with National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan today. This comes as the US government believes that six Americans are still alive and held captive in the enclave. Several families have arrived in Washington this week to mark the 100-day milestone since their loved ones were abducted by Hamas. These families are pleading for the release of their family members who remain in captivity.
Meanwhile, Sharon Cuneo, an Israeli hostage recently freed, shared her harrowing experience. Cuneo revealed that she and her family were taken during the attack on October 7th and held at al-Nasr Hospital in southern Gaza. Though she and her children have been released, her husband is still being held captive. She mentioned that her husband was taken down to the tunnels. She expressed the emotional toll she faces each day, admitting that she often spends her time crying. Despite her own grief, Cuneo tries to stay strong for her daughters who ask about their father every day.
