Eliya Cohen was held hostage by Hamas for 505 days.
Ziv Abud was at the Nova Music Festival, just like Eliya, and survived by hiding in a pile of bodies.
Eliya didn’t know until he returned that Ziv, his fiancée, survived the massacre.
Today, the two finally got married.… pic.twitter.com/64txi36quM
