00:00Since I've been here as ambassador, I've been wearing this pin on my lapel.
00:05It is a sign of solidarity with the hostages.
00:08But today, thank God, I take this pin off because there are no more hostages in Gaza.
00:16With the return of Ron Ghibli to his family today, the last of the hostages have been returned.
00:24My heartfelt thanks to President Trump and all those who have helped to make this day a reality.
00:32So many prayers for the families, for the hostages.
00:36I want to make clear, and I've said this now for months, I'm not going to keep this.
00:42I don't want to keep it because it's a reminder of something I just soon forget of the torture and the horrific things that happened to people that should never have happened.
00:52So now that I take it off, I will get rid of it.
00:56And I pray I never see it again.
00:58And I pray that never again will an Israeli ever have to wear a pin that makes them think about someone taken hostage.
01:06May everyone be free forever.
