Hamas's Oct 7th Nova Festival Massacre to Killing of Yahya Sinwar: Key Events of Israel-Hamas War

The Israel-Hamas conflict has been marked by pivotal moments of violence and tension. The war escalated dramatically on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel during the Shemini Atzeret holiday, including the massacre at the Nova Music Festival. The assault, which involved a barrage of rockets and the infiltration of militants into Israel, resulted in the deaths of over 1,200 people, with families targeted in their homes in kibbutzim. The brutal nature of this attack prompted Israel to declare a state of war, followed by a complete siege of Gaza. The humanitarian toll was staggering, with over 1.4 million Palestinians displaced in the ensuing weeks. The war continued with significant losses on both sides, including the deaths of high-ranking individuals such as Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. On October 17, 2024, Sinwar was killed in an Israeli operation, marking a key turning point in the conflict #HamasAttack #NovaFestivalMassacre #IsraelHamasWar #October7Attack #YahyaSinwar #IsraelWar #HamasConflict #MiddleEastCrisis #GazaSiege #IsraelDefenseForces #HostageRescue #WarToll #HumanitarianCrisis #IsraelMilitaryOps #MiddleEastTensions
