Former Hamas-Captive Gilad Schalit married Nitzan Shabbat at a ceremony in the center of Israel Wednesday night.
Schalit proposed to Shabbat in February of 2020 after a year and a half of courtship.

Schalit is a former IDF soldier who, on June 25, 2006, was captured by Hamas operatives in a cross-border raid via tunnels near the Israeli border with the Gaza Strip.
Hamas held him captive for over five years until his release on October 18, 2011, as part of a prisoner exchange deal that saw the release of over 1,000 convicted Palestinian terrorists.
