Hersh Goldberg-Polin, a 23-year-old California, native, was one of the most well-known captives held by Hamas as his parents met with world leaders to press for his release.
Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin, an Israeli-American who was taken hostage by militants during Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack, was among six hostages found dead in Gaza Sunday, military officials said.According to the Israeli military, all six hostages were killed shortly before forces arrived.Militants seized Goldberg-Polin, 23, and four of the other hostages at a music festival in southern Israel during the attack, which triggered Israel's war against Hamas.
He became one of the most well-known captives held by Hamas as his parents met with world leaders and pressed for his release.The deaths of Goldberg-Polin and other hostages sparked calls for mass protests against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, whom many Israelis blame for failing to bring them back alive in a deal with Hamas to end the 10-month-old war. Negotiations over such a deal have dragged on for months.
