October 7 Hamas Attacks: How Life Changed at Israel's Borders, One Year
Organizations operating under the IFRC across the region have lost at least 27
members since last October, Della Longa said.
According to Touma, at least
224 UNRWA staff have been killed. It is "beyond sad," Touma said, and "very hard
to overcome as an agency, because we lost emergency workers, doctors, nurses,
pharmacists, logisticians, security personnel, teachers, social workers."

UNRWA came under fire after the U.N. said it had investigated 19 cases where its
staff were accused of being involved in the October 7 attacks. In early August,
the U.N. said it had fired nine staff members where "the evidence was sufficient
to conclude that they may have been involved in the 7 October attacks." Touma
told Newsweek the nine sackings had "no impact on our work" as a team of 30,000
people.
Aid organizations stress that the priorities are an immediate
ceasefire, the return of the remaining hostages and getting aid to Gaza. Until
then, they say, there is little prospect for improving the desperation of the
situation for around two million Gazans.
"Everyone else around the world
moves forward," said Alashqar. "Their children live in proper homes, receive a
good education and grow up in a better environment. Meanwhile, in Gaza, time
stands still, yet we continue to age, along with our children. Life moves on,
but our time remains frozen."
"I can only describe the past year as if we
were living in limbo—neither in the sky nor on the ground."
Developing
Stronger Defenses for Israel
The year of war in Gaza—and the escalating
conflict with Hezbollah—has been propped up by Israel's defense industry. The
country's defense officials told Newsweek that there has been a "growing
recognition" in recent years that Israel needs to shore up its ability to
produce defense equipment domestically, but this sharpened from October 2023.
