Dubai: It’s been a year since the October 7, 2023 attack on Israel. Hamas, a militant group based in Gaza, launched thousands of rockets into Israel and followed up with a ground invasion. Over 5,000 rockets were launched within the first few hours targeting areas in southern and central Israel, resulting in destruction and panic.

One year after the October 7 attacks, war continues to rage between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Despite efforts to reach a diplomatic solution, the fighting has now expanded into neighbouring Lebanon.
