"An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind." - Mahatma Gandhi The story of suffering on both sides needs to be told. The aftermath of the devastating attack on Israel on October 7th, 2023, plunged the region into a relentless cycle of violence and chaos. The initial assault claimed the lives of approximately 1139 Israelis and foreign nationals, with 764 civilians among the casualties, along with 248 individuals taken hostage in the Gaza Strip. Subsequent clashes led to thousands of Palestinian deaths, predominantly women and children, in Gaza, with no distinction made between combatants and civilians. The conflict spilled into the West Bank, with Palestinians suffering from military actions and settler violence. Casualties were reported across Israel, Southern Lebanon, and Syria, demonstrating the widespread impact. As days passed, the conflict showed no signs of resolution, highlighting the complex and far-reaching consequences, leaving an indelible mark on the region.
