Dolev Yahoud
Age 35 when abducted

Dolev Yehud, a 35-year-old resident of Kibbutz Nir Oz, along with his younger sister, Arbel Yehud, aged 28, and Arbel's boyfriend, Ariel Cunio, were all taken hostage on October 7. Their abduction occurred during a devastating attack by Hamas terrorists on their kibbutz, resulting in the loss of lives and the abduction of a significant portion of the kibbutz's residents.
The Yehud siblings, Dolev and Arbel, are part of the third generation of their family living on the kibbutz, highlighting the deep-rooted connection they have with their community and the region.
Dolev’s wife, Sigal, gave birth to their fourth child while he is held captive, adding an additional layer of heartache to their already challenging situation. Additionally, Dolev's father, Yehi Yahud, expresses concern for his son’s chronic illness.
In addition to his family commitments, Dolev is known for his involvement in volunteer work as a medic. He has contributed his time and skills to organizations including Magen David Adom and United Hatzalah.
Dolev is also a fan of stand-up comedy and podcasts that explore the world of comedy.
