Headline: UNCAPTIONED: A Divided Israel Marks Two Years Since Oct. 7 Attack as War Grinds On
Caption: A Divided Israel Marks Two Years Since Oct. 7 Attack as War Grinds On. Israel prepares to mourn the dead as it marks two years since Hamas’ deadly Oct. 7 attack, which triggered an ongoing war. The memorial ceremony is organized by bereaved families rather than the government, reflecting deep divisions over Netanyahu’s leadership. The Gaza Strip has been devastated by Israel’s retaliatory actions, killing tens of thousands and displacing millions. Two years after the attack, 48 hostages remain in Gaza, with Hamas demanding a ceasefire and Israeli withdrawal for their release. The conflict expanded into a broader regional war, with Israel and its allies fighting against Iran and Hezbollah across the Middle East. The failure to return the hostages has led to mass protests against Netanyahu and heightened Israel’s international isolation. Memorials for the victims, including the Nova music festival site, have become focal points for bereaved families. Talks continue in Egypt as Israel and Hamas discuss a U.S.-proposed peace plan, while accusations of genocide and war crimes mount.
