Story summary

On October 7, 2023, Hamas militants attacked southern Israel, killing approximately 1,200 civilians and taking roughly 250 hostages. This event led to a significant Israeli military response, causing widespread destruction in Gaza with estimates of over 70,000 deaths there. The attack sparked a broader geopolitical shift, drawing celebrities like John Cusack and Roger Waters into the debate on Israel's actions and Palestinian rights. Meanwhile, bereaved families such as Sigal Manzuri continue to honor their loved ones' memory three years later, while Palestinians grapple with ongoing consequences of the retaliatory war in Gaza where most people now live in squalid conditions amidst ruins.
