One year since deadly Oct. 7 terrorist attacks in Israel
SUMMARY: On the one-year anniversary of the deadliest attack in Israel’s history, the Jewish community held a day of prayer and remembrance. Hamas militants killed over 1,000 people during a music festival in southern Israel, and filmmaker Yoni Dillard, a survivor, shared his story of escape and survival. He recounted fleeing bullets and witnessing horrific violence, including a woman bleeding from multiple gunshot wounds. Dillard emphasized the importance of sharing survivor stories and reiterated that this fight against terrorism is not just Israel’s, but a global concern. Despite his belief in peace, he now feels pessimistic about the ongoing conflict.
