Former Israeli Hostage Calls on Netanyahu to Declare a Ceasefire in Gaza
------------------------------------------------------------------------

An Israeli woman who was held hostage by Hamas for 51 days is calling on
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to declare a ceasefire. Aviva
Siegel spoke to "PBS News Hour."

Aviva Siegel: "But he can't keep the war going and get the hostages out.
He needs to keep - he needs to go to a ceasefire and then get them out.
And he needs to get them out now, as quick as possible."
