Israel marked the third anniversary of the Hamas incursions with a 6:29 a.m. nationwide minute of silence and a national memorial at Tel Aviv's Yarkon Park attended by tens of thousands. Tributes at the Nova festival site honored the roughly 1,200 people killed and 251 hostages taken in 2023, all of whom have now returned home. Israel also commemorated 1,318 members of its security and emergency forces who have fallen since the conflict began.
