Vladimir Logvincheko, a father whose son was killed in the October 7 Hamas attack, has been identified as the man who drowned at the fortress beach in Ashdod on Saturday afternoon, according to a Ynet report on Sunday. The identification adds a tragic dimension to the incident, linking it to the ongoing toll of the October 7 massacre.
The initial reports of the drowning emerged at 17:09 Jerusalem on Saturday, when rescue teams recovered a man's body from the sea. A subsequent bulletin at the same time described the victim as a man approximately 50 years old. The victim's identity was not disclosed until today, when Ynet confirmed his name and his connection to October 7.
The Zioneer has reported on several drowning incidents along the Israeli coast this summer, including a 15-year-old boy at Palmachim beach on July 1, a 25-year-old man off Rishon LeZion on July 3, and a man at Kiryat Haim beach on July 9. These cases highlight a broader pattern of fatal drownings, though no link has been established between them.
The circumstances of Logvincheko's drowning remain unclear. Ynet's report did not provide additional details, and no official cause has been announced.
