SPECIAL GUESTS

Ziv & Gali Berman
Ziv and Gali are 28-year-old twin brothers and best friends since birth. Always inseparable, they share the same close-knit group of friends, a love of soccer, and even a career. Together, they worked as light technicians in the Israeli entertainment industry, side by side in both life and work.
On October 7, both Ziv and Gali were in the young adults’ neighborhood of Kibbutz Kfar Aza. Gali went early that morning to be with his friend Emily Damari, who was afraid to be alone, while Ziv remained in his room. Hamas terrorists abducted Ziv, Gali, and Emily at gunpoint and forced them into Gaza in Emily’s car after setting homes on fire.
Once inside Gaza, the terrorists separated the twins—marking the longest time Ziv and Gali had ever been apart in their lives, after never knowing whether the other had survived.
Ziv and Gali will share the unimaginable pain of that separation, the strength that carried them through, and the moment of profound joy when they were reunited. Their story is a powerful testament to the endurance of the human spirit and the unbreakable bond of family.
