Jeremy Loffredo, the journalist from Toms River who was detained in Israel and charged with "aiding the enemy during wartime," has left Israel, a State Department spokesman said Monday. Loffredo was arrested Oct. 8 at a checkpoint in the West Bank and held in detention until a judge ordered his release Friday. The allegations against him stemmed from his reporting for The Grayzone, which included information about the locations of strikes launched at military targets inside Israel this month. Asked about Loffredo at a press briefing, spokesman Vedant Patel answered, "My understanding is that he has left Israel," but he provided no further detail.

The Israeli government arrested, detained, and charged American journalist Jeremy Loffredo with “aiding the enemy during wartime and providing information to the enemy.” According to Israeli news site Ynet, Loffredo was arrested by security forces on “suspicion of endangering national security after reporting on where missiles landed in the attack launched by Iran earlier this month including in the [Israeli military’s] Nevatim Air Base and an intelligence base in central Israel.” Loffredo appeared in an Israeli Magistrate's Court on October 10 after being detained for nearly a day and a half. He was taken to an Israeli military base along with at least four other journalists, who were later released.
