Yulie Ben-Ami, whose parents Raz and Ohad were held by Hamas, married Roberto Meir on Thursday at a ceremony attended by President Isaac Herzog and his wife, Michal. Herzog called the wedding a moment of joy.
Yulie and her sisters, Ella and Natalie, campaigned for their parents’ return. Ohad Ben-Ami was freed after 491 days in Hamas captivity alongside Or Levy and Eli Sharabi; Raz Ben-Ami was released after 54 days in Gaza as part of a hostage deal. Herzog said Meir fought terrorists at the kibbutz on October 7.
