A YEAR OF UNPRECEDENTED VIOLENCE AND DESTRUCTION IN GAZA
Nearly 42K Palestinian lives lost in year of war, Middle East remains in turmoil

TEL AVIV/GAZA: One year after Hamas launched its unprecedented attack on southern Israel on October 7, 2023, the Middle East remains embroiled in a relentless war that shows no signs of resolution. Initially centred on the Gaza Strip, Israel's retaliatory offensive has shifted focus in recent weeks to Lebanon, where ground incursions against Hezbollah militants have intensified following rocket fire into Israel.

The conflict escalated last week when Israel endured a massive missile barrage from Iran, leading to a vow of retaliation.

With tensions mounting, the risk of deeper US involvement looms, alongside threats from Iran-backed militias in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen.

Hamas's October assault marked the deadliest day in Israeli history, claiming approximately 1,200 lives and taking over 100 hostages. In response, the ongoing Gaza war has resulted in unprecedented destruction, with Gaza health authorities reporting nearly 42,000 fatalities, disproportionately affecting women and children. The humanitarian crisis has led to the displacement of approximately 1.9 million Palestinians, as hospitals, schools, and infrastructure lie in ruins.

Checkmate!

I was going to press it for as long as I could possibly press, but I thought, 'It's OK. We are going to play for five, six hours. It's going to end in a draw, and let's focus on the tiebreaks.' But then suddenly after Rf2, I saw [the game] was actually done. I was already preparing myself to go through that huge tiebreak fight and suddenly it was all over and I had achieved my dream. I'm not someone who shows a lot of emotions, but I think this one can be forgiven.\"
