Former British-Israeli Hamas hostage married in Tel Aviv
Emily Damari married partner Dami Amit in a ceremony held in Tel Aviv on Thursday.
Emily Damari, a former British-Israeli hostage, exchanged vows for the second time in Tel Aviv on Thursday. The wedding ceremony was a joyous occasion, marking a new chapter in Damari's life after her release from Hamas captivity after 471 days. Joined by her partner Danielle Amit and several fellow former hostages, the couple celebrated with an intimate dinner and exchanged vows beneath a traditional Jewish wedding canopy.
Despite the emotional significance of the event, it is important to note that same-sex weddings are not legally recognized as marriages by the Israeli state.
