The events of October 7, 2023, marked a significant turning point in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas.

On that day, Hamas and other groups crossed into Israel, committing acts of violence that included torture and murder.

This attack was not an unintended consequence of war but a premeditated act of terror.

In the aftermath, a culture of denial has emerged, characterized by misinformation and silence.

Some narratives falsely claim that the violence was either exaggerated or self-inflicted by Israelis.

This denial is perpetuated through various tactics, including the distortion of historical perspectives and the erasure of memories.

As the world reflects on the year since the attack, the challenge remains to confront these narratives and acknowledge the profound impact of that day on both local and global scales.
