One year since the horrific Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023 that shook the world, Israel remains at war in Gaza with hostages still in captivity. J Street and the Progressive Israel Network, a coalition of 12 organizations dedicated to democracy, equality and peace in Israel, held a commemoration event remembering the victims of that fateful day, lifting up the stories of the hostages, and reflecting on the impact the aftermath of October 7 has had on Israeli society, Palestinian citizens of Israel, and the Jewish community.
