Israel remembers the victims of October 7
168
Israel has important memorial events on Monday. People remember October 7 in the year 2023. Back then, the terror group Hamas attacks Israel. Almost 1.200 people die in this attack. Many people are taken as hostages. The flags in Israel hang low. This is a sign of deep grief.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gives a speech at a cemetery. He says: Hamas never rules the Gaza Strip again. He wants to find and punish all culprits. The army kills many attackers already. An important leader of Hamas dies in Gaza too. But people also argue in Israel. Many people want an investigation against the government.
Australia also has memorial days. Jewish groups organize events in many cities. At the same time, other groups want to hold vigils for Palestine. Politicians in Australia criticize these vigils. They think the date for these meetings is wrong. The police watch carefully so everything stays peaceful. The future in the Gaza Strip is still very uncertain.
