Welcome to the daily Inside Scoop newsletter. Three years have passed since the deadliest day in Israel’s history. The Hamas-led attacks of Oct. 7 sparked the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip that has killed tens of thousands of people. Now, Israel’s parliamentary elections later this month may serve as a referendum on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s handling of the attacks and the war. I spoke with the cousin of an Israeli hostage as well as an aid worker in Gaza for yesterday’s “Here’s the Scoop.” Below, we share more from those conversations. Let’s get into it.
Israelis gathered at vigils across the country today for a day of collective mourning marking the third anniversary of the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023, attacks. For many, the day that militants killed over 1,200 people and took 251 others hostage is still a raw memory.
Just a moment.
