For the first time since American-Israeli Edan Alexander's release by Hamas, his family is speaking publicly about what their son went through.
Freeing Alexander, believed to be the last surviving American hostage held by the militant Palestinian group, comes ahead of U.S. President Trump's visit to the Middle East this week.
His comments came after Hamas, designated a terrorist organization by the U.S. and many other countries, released the last surviving U.S.-Israeli hostage after a deal with Washington.
