Widow of Fallen IDF Soldier Remarries Four Months After Engagement
Hana, the widow of Sergeant Major (res.) Uriel Cohen, who fell in Gaza, remarried Amit yesterday, four months after their engagement. Cohen shared a moving photo from the proposal on Instagram, expressing her joy and gratitude to both her late husband and her new partner. She wrote, "In lack and completeness that came from it, you are always with me hand in hand. Thank you, Hana and Amit."
In a heartfelt post, Cohen reflected on her journey, stating, "Divine sound connected souls without words and without logic. In this house, they knocked and announced, and in this house, I knew, even if sometimes I didn't believe, that I would still hear the sound of joy and the sound of happiness, the sound of true love. Love in which there is another love at its base, and the two together correspond miraculously. Facing the walls, we walked together in the ruins of Jerusalem, and then he told me between the walls, 'I wanted because everything is His and everything is from Him, simply. In completeness. With great gratitude.'"
Uriel Cohen, a tank commander in the Givati Brigade's administrative support unit, was killed on December 19, 2023, during battles in Khan Younis at the age of 33. He is survived by his wife Hana and their two young daughters.
