After months of mounting tension and civil unrest, Hamas militants carried out a brazen attack on Israel on Oct. 7, infiltrating the heavily fortified Israeli border in several locations. Around 1,400 people – mostly civilians – were killed in the attacks, and over 200 were taken hostage, according to the Israeli government. At funerals throughout Israel, a nation grieves the loss of loved ones.
