Two former hostages have got engaged, according to a photograph shared online by the mother of the groom-to-be.
In the image, Matan Zangauker and Ilana Gritzewsky can be seen smiling and celebrating with champagne flutes in front of a large heart-shaped floral display surrounding an electric sign bearing the words “Will you marry me?”
Zangauker, 26, was freed in October after two years in captivity, having been abducted with Gritzewsky, 31, by terrorists at Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7 2023. Gritzewsky was freed in November 2023 after nearly two months in captivity.
On October 7, the couple jumped from the window of their safe room and ran in separate directions after terrorists shot at their door.
