The Presidency of Barack Obama established the Hostage Recovery Fusion Cell on June 24, 2015.[1] The Federal Bureau of Investigation is the lead agency, coordinating the work of staff from the FBI, the Department of State, the Department of Defense and the Treasury Department.[2]
By its third anniversary the Cell had aided in the recovery of 180 American citizens.[3]
The Cell has a team to assist the family members of hostages.[4] Rob Saale, director of the Cell from 2017-2019, described the government treating families poorly, prior to the Cell's creation.[5]
