From Captivity to Freedom
January 4, 2026, 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
On October 7, Eliyah and Ziv attended the Nova music festival. They fled together into a roadside bomb shelter—later known as “the bunker of death”—after terrorists attacked the shelter by throwing grenades inside.
Eliyah was taken captive and held for 505 days, not knowing what happened to Ziv.
He was released on February 22, 2025, and only then learned that Ziv had survived and had been fighting for his return every single day.
Chisuk Emuna is honored to host Eliyah and Ziv as they share their journey—one that reflects courage, heartbreak, and the unbreakable strength of the human spirit.
