Israel gedenkt der Opfer des Hamas-Angriffs vor zwei Jahren, bei dem islamistische Kämpfer mehr als 1200 Menschen getötet hatten. Am Ort des Nova-Musikfestivals, wo Hamas-Kämpfer 370 Menschen getötet hatten, legten Angehörige eine Schweigeminute ein.

Overview

  • Families held a minute of silence at 06:29 at the Nova festival site, where more than 370 people were killed in the 2023 attack.
  • Israeli figures report over 1,200 people were killed on Oct. 7, with 251 taken hostage; authorities say 47 remain held and at least 25 are dead.
  • Delegations linked to Hamas and Israel entered indirect talks that began Monday in Egypt and were due to continue Tuesday in Sharm el‑Sheikh.
  • U.S. President Donald Trump voiced optimism as Netanyahu backed the 20-point plan and Hamas signaled partial acceptance, with terms including no future Hamas role in Gaza’s governance.
  • The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry reports more than 67,100 deaths from the war, a toll AFP notes cannot be independently verified, as leaders in Germany and the UK issued solidarity messages with Jewish communities.
