A man from Chapel Hill is reportedly among the 33 hostages who will be released as a part of the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.
NBC News reports Keith Siegel, 65, was taken hostage with his wife, Aviva, during the Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7, 2023.
Aviva was released after 51 days. Keith, who is Israeli-American occupational therapist, is reportedly alive and remains a hostage. He was last seen in a video released in April by Hamas.
The deal involves releasing hundreds of Palestinian detainees in exchange for 33 hostages. It's set to take effect on Sunday, Jan. 19.
