The identity of the tourist who drowned in an accident while swimming in Victoria Falls last week has been revealed to be Israeli backpacker called Ofer Cohen.
Cohen had traveled the world as a backpacker for 13 years and visited over 40 countries. In Zimbabwe, he was working as a skydiving instructor near Victoria Falls. He only travelled back to Israel on Holidays.
His sister refer to him as “a special person who made everybody he met along the way feel like his best friend,”
Cohen was laid to rest at the Kiryat Anavim Cemetery in Israel.
