Three years ago, Hamas terrorists invaded Israel, murdering approximately 1,200 people, wounding thousands and abducting 251 men, women and children to Gaza.
Behind every number was an entire life. A family. A future that should never have been taken.
Three years have passed. Some days, it feels like a lifetime. On others, it feels as though we are still inside that morning, waiting for the nightmare to end.
Today, we remember every life stolen, every family torn apart, every survivor carrying the weight of what happened and every community still rebuilding.
We remember not only how those murdered died, but how they lived. We honour those who ran towards danger to save others. And we continue to tell their stories because remembrance is not only something we carry. It is a responsibility.
May the memories of all those murdered on October 7 be a blessing.
