Former IDF chief of staff and opposition MK Gadi Eisenkot toured the Gaza border area on Wednesday evening and met with freed hostage Doron Steinbrecher in the Sderot neighborhood from which she was abducted on October 7, 2023, according to N12.
Eisenkot, chairman of the Israel Resilience party, has been a vocal critic of the government's handling of the war and the hostage crisis. The meeting comes against the backdrop of ongoing efforts to secure the release of remaining captives held by Hamas in Gaza.
Steinbrecher, a 31-year-old veterinary nurse, was kidnapped from her home in Kibbutz Kfar Aza during the October 7 attack and was released as part of a hostage deal in November 2023. No further details about what was discussed in the meeting have been reported.
