Hamas Attack and Global Reactions

One year ago, Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel, resulting in the deaths of 1,200 people and the capture of 250 hostages. In response, Israel declared war with the objectives of destroying Hamas and retrieving the hostages. Current reports indicate that 154 hostages have been released, while 97 remain in Gaza, with some feared dead. The ongoing conflict has incited significant international protests, such as the recent demonstration in London, as calls for a ceasefire appear unlikely amid the war's continued escalation.
