Edan Alexander (born December 29, 2003) is an American-Israeli soldier and former prisoner of war who became the last known living American citizen held hostage by Hamas in the Gaza war hostage crisis. His captivity and eventual release after 584 days received extensive international media coverage and political attention. His abduction during the October 7 attacks, his dual U.S.-Israeli citizenship, and his role as an Israeli soldier made his case particularly significant. Alexander's release was the result of high-profile negotiations involving the U.S. government and was marked by meetings with President Donald Trump at the White House. The negotiations and advocacy to secure his freedom became emblematic of international efforts to resolve the hostage crisis. Upon his return, Alexander received an official welcome in his hometown of Tenafly, New Jersey, with hundreds gathering to celebrate his return.
