Yulie Ben-Ami, daughter of Hamas captivity survivors, marries in ceremony attended by Herzog

Yulie Ben-Ami, daughter of captivity survivors Raz and Ohad Ben-Ami, tied the knot on Thursday in a poignant ceremony. The occasion, described by President Isaac Herzog as a "moment of pure victory and happiness," saw Herzog post on Twitter about his joy at seeing the reunited family, despite the harrowing images of their ordeal.

Herzog praised Yulie, Ella and Natalie for their perseverance in securing their parents' release, and commended Roberto Meir, Yulie's partner, for his bravery during the 7th of October attack. The family's story is one of resilience and determination, with Yulie actively advocating for the return of hostages after her father's release.
