My Story
The journey did not end
when I came home.
My name is Elkana Bohbot. I am the son of Ruhama and David, Rivka’s husband, and the father of Raam and Michelle.
On October 7, I was part of the production team at the Nova and Mushroom festival. When the attack began, I chose to stay and help others. From there, I was abducted to Gaza and taken into a long and harrowing reality.
Throughout that time, I held on to one thing above all: the belief that I would return home to my family. Today, I share my story to give strength, inspire hope and remind people that it is possible to choose life again.
