Alexander (Sasha) Trupanob

28

1,90 Meter Schönheit und Stärke, kombiniert mit einzigartiger Sensibilität und Humor: das ist der 28-jährige Sasha. Seine Freunde aus dem Elektrotechnik-Studium sagen, er sei der Einzige gewesen, der in Prüfungszeiten keinen Stress hatte, und der Erste, der einen Job als Ingenieur in Amazons Cloud-Abteilung AWS gefunden hat.
Am Samstag, dem 7.10., als der Raketenbeschuss begann, schrieb er seinen Freunden, es tue ihm leid, dass er ausgerechnet an diesem Samstag seine Freundin Sapir Cohen mit in den Kibbuz gebracht habe. Später wurden die beiden zusammen mit Saschas Mutter Jelena und seiner Großmutter Irena entführt. An jenem Samstagmorgen wurde Saschas Vater in ihrem Haus ermordet. Am 29.11. wurden Irena und Yelena im Rahmen eines vorübergehenden Waffenstillstandsabkommens aus der Gefangenschaft der Hamas entlassen. Später wurde auch Sapir im Rahmen desselben Abkommens freigelassen.
Obwohl Sasha seit Monaten in Gefangenschaft gehalten wird, schweigt Amazon zu diesem Thema. Sasha wird von seiner Familie und seinen Freunden schrecklich vermisst.

Dear Alexander (Sasha) Trupanob,

We have not forgotten you, your fate, and that of your loved ones and are happy, that you are free. Welcome home! You are forever in our hearts. Israel is not alone. You are not alone. There are also people in Germany who stand behind you and want to encourage you. There is a reason to look forward and keep going. It is a difficult, rocky road back to life, but I am sure it can be done. Whether you are surviving hostages or have lost loved ones, we wish you comfort in your grief. We pray for you.

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isaiah 41:10

Warm regards,

Stefan Fröhlich

Sasha, I met Steven Philips who worked with you, whilst telling your story, in Borehamwood, UK, in September. In front of about 150 people who gather every Friday to hear stories of hostages

Please join me now for a 3pm coffee for Sasha ☕

Listen to the story/testimony of Sapir Cohen, Sasha's girlfriend, who was released after 55 days hostage in Gaza.

#BringThemHomeNow
I would like to bring to your minds, an only child, 28yr old, Alexander (aka Sasha) Troufanov, who immigrated to Israel from Russia with his family when he was 3yrs old and is STILL being held in Hamas captivity in Gaza. His 50yr old mother Lena, 73yr old grandmother Yelena Tati and his girlfriend Sapir Cohen, were released in a hostage exchange on 30th November. His father Vitali was murdered in their home, Kibbutz Nir Oz on 7th October.
Black Sabbath.
Sasha is a born genius, the brains of his group. He was a master engineer working at Annapurna Labs, a subsidiary of Amazon.
A sociable, witty and funny guy who enters the heart of all the people around him and brings light wherever he is.
He is a true friend, humble and has a heart bigger than gold. His friends always joke that the taller he is the more sensitive he is. Sasha is handsome, charismatic, tall and sturdy. Fitness and proper nutrition are an integral part of his daily routine.
As a manager he created a daily ritual with his team - coffee at 3 o'clock. Sasha would make his entire team leave the keyboards, get up from their station and come and have coffee with him. It was the Holy of Holies for him, and everyone would join him.
This was their time to chat and connect, to get to know each other personally and not only around work. When we feel connected with each other at work, when we get to know each other and when managers get to see the human beings that are showing up every single day, work becomes meaningful and of course, performance soars. If you can create this kind of team environment, then you're doing great as a manager. And that's what Sasha was, every day.
I would like to pass on a request from his team, who have called for people to come together and drink coffee at 3 o'clock and upload their pictures to social media and include the hashtag
#coffeeat3withsasha
please help spread Sasha’s plight further.
When the long-awaited day happens and he returns to Israel and to work, it is important for Sasha’s friends to show him that people did think about him, that people did care, that he was missed and was never forgotten.
I personally have not missed a day of having, and posting, my coffee break, since seeing his friends post at the beginning of November, even on the day of my son's wedding a few months ago.
Thank you for your time.

למשפחה של סשה אלכסנדר טרופנוב

שמי גיל ואני תלמיד.ה בתיכון בית ירח בכתה יא

קראתי את השיר "אדם יוצא מבית" מאת עמיחי, ואני מביא ממנו את השורה

"הבית מתרחב והולך ונעשה לדרכים בהן יהלך זה שיצא מן הבית".

המילים האלה נתנו לי סוג של תמונה כללית של איך שאני הייתי רוצה שייראה הבית שלי במידה ויקרה אסון מסויים.

אני הייתי רוצה שהבית יישאר מאושר ושישגשג ושיתפתח ויתרחב וכן גם כל האנשים בו הקרובים אליי . ואז זה היה עושה אותי מאושר גם כן. הדבר שיעשה את סשה הכי מאושר זה בכך שתשאפו להתפתח ולהיות מאושרים.

אני איתכם מרחוק

מתפללת לשלומכם ולשחרורך. מתפללת שתחזור למשפחה ולחברים שלך ולחיים שאתה צריך להתחיל.

כל עם ישראל בארץ ובתפוצות מתפלל לחזרתך.

המשפחות של השבויים נאבקות בכל דרך להחזיר אתכם במהרה. לא עברה שעה, יום, יממה מבלי להזכיר אתכם. אתם אהובים וחשובים. מתפללת לנס גדול שיחזיר אתכם הביתה בשלום.
