Sasha Tropnov, a former hostage, broke the wedding glass under the canopy together with fellow former hostage Sapir Cohen this evening, according to Amichai Stein (i24NEWS). The ceremony, officiated by Rabbi Berel Lazar, marks the union of two former hostages.
At 20:31 Jerusalem, The Zioneer first reported that former hostages Sasha Tropnov and Sapir Cohen were married, with Rabbi Berel Lazar, Chief Rabbi of Russia, officiating. The ceremony included the song 'Mimaamakim', and N12 released footage of the couple under the canopy. President Isaac Herzog also attended the celebration. Now, at 21:44 Jerusalem, the desk has obtained a new detail: during the ceremony, Tropnov broke the wedding glass together with Cohen, a traditional Jewish wedding ritual. The moment was captured and reported by Amichai Stein (i24NEWS).
The thread evolved rapidly from a single initial announcement at 20:31 to multiple corroborating reports: N12's footage, the president's attendance, the identity of the officiating rabbi, and now the glass-breaking ritual. Each report came from a different source, building a fuller picture of the ceremony.
As The Zioneer previously reported (Sun 21:42 Jerusalem), the wedding was officiated by Rabbi Berel Lazar, Chief Rabbi of Russia, and the ceremony featured the song 'Mimaamakim'. The breaking of the glass, performed jointly by the couple, marks a personal milestone in their recovery as former hostages.
No further details are available at this time about the rest of the ceremony or the couple's plans.
