During our G7 meeting today, we discussed continued efforts to secure a ceasefire deal in Gaza that includes the release of hostages. We also made clear we are committed to Israel’s security and condemn Iran’s unprecedented attack.
Evan Gershkovich has now spent one year behind bars in Russia on charges that defy reason. Journalism is NOT a crime. Today, alongside the @WSJ, @pressfreedom and Evan’s colleagues, friends & family, we once again call for his immediate release. #FreeEvan #IStandWithEvan
Today’s ruling to prolong @WSJ Evan Gershkovich’s detention is painful, as this week marks 1 year since RU wrongfully detained him for doing his job. Evan’s case is not about evidence, due process, or rule of law. It is about using U.S. citizens as pawns for political ends.

Today in Cairo, I met with President @AlsisiOfficial and Foreign Minister Shoukry to discuss our ongoing efforts to reach a ceasefire deal that includes the release of hostages, and would allow a sustained increase in aid for Gaza.
Ambassador Tracy visited @WSJ’s Evan Gershkovich today at Lefortovo prison. Next week will mark 1 year since his wrongful detention by RU authorities. Evan remains strong and resilient, but it is a tragedy he awaits a trial for a crime he did not commit. #JournalismisNotaCrime

Jill and I are devastated to learn that Itay Chen was killed by Hamas during its brutal terrorist assault on October 7. In December, Itay’s father and brother joined me at the White House to share the agony and uncertainty they’ve faced as they prayed for the safe return of…
Today is the first U.S. Hostage and Wrongful Detainee Day. This flag is a symbol of the commitment we have to Americans unjustly held overseas. We see you. We are with you. We will bring you home.
A profound moment with families of Americans unjustly held overseas & those who returned safely as we raised the Hostage & Wrongful Detainee flag @StateDept for the first time. We stand committed to work for the safe return of all wrongfully detained U.S. citizens. #BringThemHome
Today is the first U.S. Hostage and Wrongful Detainee Day. A day that we reaffirm our mission to bring home Americans who are wrongfully held overseas.

Seven years ago today, Madj Kamalmaz was detained in Syria and his family has not heard from him since. Seven years is far too long – his family deserves resolution and the United States will continue to pursue his case.
Embassy officials witnessed today’s Lefortovo Court ruling again prolonging the wrongful detention of U.S. citizen @WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich. The grounds for Evan’s detention are baseless. Journalism is not a crime. We continue to call for Evan’s immediate release.

All the Americans who were wrongfully detained in Venezuela are now safely back in the United States. Welcome home. 🇺🇸
Today I spoke with Prime Minister Netanyahu to express my concern for the remaining hostages — and to note that it was Hamas’s refusal to release women civilian hostages that broke down the humanitarian pause. We will continue to pursue every opportunity to free them.
Good meeting with Israeli Brig. Gen. Naama Rosen-Grimberg. We are focused on the return of ALL hostages in Gaza — including Hadar, Oron, Avera, and Hisham who were taken by Hamas prior to Oct 7 and have been held for years.
I am heartened to see another American included among the hostages released in Gaza. The pause in fighting has demonstrated success in securing the freedom of hostages and in delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza – we want to see it continue.
Embassy officials attended the hearing of wrongfully detained @WSJ journalist Evan Gershkovich today at Lefortovo Court. We are deeply concerned by the court’s decision to extend his pre-trial detention by another 2 months. We reiterate our call for his immediate release.
