It is one year since the Hamas attack that left 1,200 people dead and 251 kidnapped, the deadliest offensive suffered by the Jewish people since the Holocaust.

This Monday, October 7, marks the longest and most traumatic day in history: one year since Hamas’ attack on Israel, the most serious in history on the territory of the State of Israel and the one that has caused the most deaths since World War II.

The Israeli response could mean a new escalation in the region, which has reached the point of a new open war that could be devastating.

Since then, Gaza has already recorded more than 41,000 murders, most of them women and children, after twelve months of Israeli genocide.

The armed conflict between the State of Israel and the group of militia groups led by Hamas escalated a year ago, on October 7, 2023, with a coordinated surprise offensive against Israel.

The Israeli army continues to carry out airstrikes and fight in the territory, with the aim of recovering the captives and destroying the Islamist group, classified as a “terrorist” organization by the United States, the European Union and the Hebrew State.

But Hamas continues to fight. The Ezedin al Qassam Brigades, its armed wing, said on Monday that it launched a barrage of rockets at the Israeli city of Tel Aviv.

The city of Gaza was unrecognizable on Monday, devastated by continuous bombing and fighting between Israeli forces and Hamas militants.

Among buildings destroyed or without facades, some residents walked on dirt roads, with mounds of rubble on both sides of the street.

Traffic is almost nonexistent in the city, as there is a shortage of fuel. Most residents walk, use bicycles or get around with the help of donkey carts.

According to the United Nations, 92% of Gaza’s streets and more than 84% of its health facilities have been damaged or destroyed in the war.

But that’s not all that’s missing. “There’s no electricity or petroleum products. There’s not even firewood. Food is almost non-existent,” said Hussam Mansur, 64.
