Captive IDF soldier Nimrod Cohen, identified from Horn Video Hamas published

The family of the Israeli soldier Nimrod Cohen, who kept captive in the Gaza Strip, said on Saturday that they had identified their son in the video published the day before.

In this recording, EITAN and ISIIR HORN, SAGUI DEKEL-Echen and other hostages, the faces of which are blurred. The Cohen family says they recognized Nimrod, who was wearing a T-shirt and was wearing a characteristic tattoo.

In the video transmission with the agreement of the Horn family, the brothers are seen EITAN and ISIIR. Isiir Horn, freed on the 498th day of the war, explains: “They let me let my little brother die here,” while his brother Eisan, still in captivity, adds: “It is illogical to separate families in this way.”

“Bring out all and do not separate families, do not destroy our life,” said Eisan in the video. “Say mom and dad that they should continue the protests and that this government signs phase two to bring us all home.” He addressed the Prime Minister directly: “[Benjamin] Netanyahu, if you have a little heart, sign today. “

During a demonstration of hostage families, Father Yehuda Cohen said that his “son Nimrod was a soldier who was kidnapped from a burning tank. He lives and, like all hostages, asks us to save them now. They all and everything at once.”

“We address President Trump – there are still 59 hostages in Gaza who live a Holocaust,” he added. “Netanyahu tries to sabotage their agreement, Mr. President. He is the one who creates the current crisis in the negotiations. Do not let him get the agreement.”

About two weeks ago Cohen unveiled in an interview with Channel 12 that the family received a message from Nimrod. “We got news from him last week, of two hostages who spent eight months with him in the tunnels,” said the father. “I'm fine, don't worry about me. I love you,” Nimrod sent his parents through the former prisoners.
