Nimrod Cohen, 19 (Nimrod ben Vicki) was abducted on October 7 from Kibbutz Nahal Oz. His family found a Hamas video of him later that day. He recently graduated high school and is an IDF soldier in the 7th Armored Brigade. Freed hostages have confirmed that he is still alive. Nimrod loves playing computer games, traveling and solving Rubik’s Cubes.

“I don’t sleep at night,” said his mother, Vicki. “I veer between moments of hope and despair.” His twin sister, Romi Cohen, is active in the Rehovot branch of the Hostages and Missing Families Forum.
