Former Israeli hostages engaged to marry

(JNS) — Former Israeli hostage Matan Zangauker and his girlfriend, former hostage Ilana Gritzewsky, have become engaged.

Zangauker’s mother, Einav Zangauker, who was one of the most vocal voices among the families of the hostages held in Gaza, posted a photo on Sunday night of Matan, 26, and Ilana, 32, drinking champagne in front of a “Will you marry me” sign inside a flower-bedecked wreath in the form of a heart.

“My picture of victory,” Einav wrote. “Ilana & Matan.”

A large guitar-shaped building in the background placed the photo at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel near Hollywood, Fla.
