Remembering Hamas Attack: One Year Later

Exactly one year ago, a surprise attack by the militant group Hamas left Israel reeling. Happening on a major Jewish holiday, it caught everyone off guard. Almost 400 people were killed and many more taken hostage at a music festival. The pain is still raw for families who lost loved ones that day. In Gaza, the fighting continues. Four projectiles were launched just as families gathered to remember. Despite ongoing threats, Israeli communities remain steadfast. The government has been criticized for not doing enough to prevent the attack or bring back all the hostages.The war in Gaza has taken a heavy toll on both sides. Thousands of Palestinians have died, and many more are displaced. It's a humanitarian crisis that shows no signs of ending soon. Israel faces international scrutiny over its actions during the war. Two world courts are looking into these issues. Families of the victims held their own event in Tel Aviv to voice their anger at the government. They want all hostages returned, and they won't stop pushing until that happens. It's a difficult time for Israel, with soldiers dying in Gaza and Lebanon, and border communities disrupted. But amidst the struggle, there are also stories of bravery and hope.
