Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania marked the release of the remaining living hostages held by Hamas, the terror group that perpetrated the heinous October 7, 2023, attack in Israel.
He credited President Donald Trump with helping to negotiate the peace agreement that led to the release of the captives kidnapped during the attack.
“The nightmare finally ends. May the hostages have a full recovery and may we never forget those who didn’t make it out alive. Credit to @POTUS for a breakthrough ceasefire of this awful war,” Fetterman noted in his post on X.

Fetterman began his post with a quote from former hostage Eli Sharabi, who was released back in February. That two-word quote, “Now, life,” comes from Sharabi’s memoir, “Hostage.”
Fetterman has been a steadfast and ardent supporter of Israel in the wake of the horrific 2023 attack and the war that followed.

Fetterman also marked the 250th anniversary of the Navy on Monday.
