Netanyahu attend the Jerusalem October 7 Ceremony

Israeli President Isaac Herzog and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday took part in a ceremony in Mount Herzl in Jerusalem for soldiers who died in the October 7 attacks and war in Gaza.

The Israeli leaders laid wreaths. On 7 October 2023, Hamas alongside other armed Palestinian groups attacked Israel, killing 1,195 people and taking 251 as hostages. This attack triggered a large-scale Israeli offensive in Gaza, resulting in the deaths of over 75,000 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health.
