TOPSHOT-ISRAEL-PALESTINIAN-CONFLICT-PHOTO ESSAY

TOPSHOT - Israeli hostages Nurit Cooper and Yocheved Lifshitz arrive to Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center - Ichilov hospital in Tel Aviv, Israel on October 24, 2023, after being held captive by Hamas since October 7, 2023. One month after Israel was wracked by Hamas attacks, life has been upended for both the Palestinians and Israel after it launched a war of reprisal in the Gaza Strip. The October 7 attacks by Hamas militants who stormed across from Gaza and struck kibbutzim and southern Israeli areas killed 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and deeply scarred the nation. The health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza says nearly 9,500 have been killed, two-thirds of them women and children, and mostly civilians.
