Only one Israeli hostage remains in Gaza: Staff Sergeant Major Ran Gvili, a Yamam (special police unit) fighter who fell in battle near Kibbutz Alumim on October 7, and whose body was taken into the Strip.

Ran was one of the first to engage Hamas terrorists that morning — and today, he is the last Israeli held in Gaza. His story is a symbol of bravery, sacrifice, and a nation still waiting for closure.
