Hamas launched a series of co-ordinated attacks from within the Gaza Strip. A total of 1,195 people in southern Israel were killed and 250 hostages were taken. Many more were injured, raped and sexually assaulted.

The attack took place during Sumchat Torah when celebrations were taking place.

This event marked the beginning of the war of the Israeli war on Gaza.

RIP to all those who lost their lives on this day, hoping the remaining live hostages are home soon and the bodies of those who have been killed returned to their families 💐

Thank you for starting this thread Magenta8
It was a terrible black day for Israel and Jews worldwide and a shocking wake up call for non Jews as to the absolute hatred that Islamist extremists have for all Jews, not just Israeli citizens.
Hoping that the next weeks bring all the hostages home and hamas disarmed and peace to Gaza.

I thought this thread would have been busier considering the date…
