American-Israeli Keith Siegel and two other hostages being held in Gaza were released to the Red Cross by Hamas in part of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas. Siegel’s release marks the first American to be released since the ceasefire agreement was reached last month.

Tel Aviv — American-Israeli dual national Keith Siegel was among three hostages released by militants in the war-torn Gaza Strip on Saturday, more than 15 months after they were taken captive by Hamas. Siegel was freed in Gaza City about two hours after Israelis Yarden Bibas and Ofer Calderon were released in the southern city of Khan Younis.
