In an address from Hostage Square, Israeli President Isaac Herzog hailed a new era for Israel, thanking President Trump for his “courage and leadership” just hours before the first Israeli hostages are set to be freed after two years in Gaza. With Trump landing Monday and hospitals and families bracing for emotional reunions, Herzog declared Israel’s “commitment to peace”—vowing to end war and build a better Middle East once all hostages return home. The world watches, as Tel Aviv stands on the brink of history.
