JERUSALEM—A U.S. dual national who was among some 240 people seized during the Oct. 7 cross-border rampage by the Hamas terrorist group in southern Israel has died in captivity in the Gaza Strip, a group representing hostages’ families said on Friday.
Gadi Haggai, 73, also held Israeli citizenship, the Hostages and Missing Families Forum said. Drawing on various information sources, an Israeli government-appointed committee has been declaring some hostages dead in absentia.
