The saddest birthday. Sasha Troufanov, an Israeli-Russian citizen, turns 29 as a hostage in Gaza. Sasha was abducted from his parents' home in Nir Oz on Oct 7 along with his girlfriend, mother, and grandmother. The three women were later released. His grandmother sent this message: "To my only and beloved grandson on his birthday - I wish for your swift and safe return to us."
