Global Jewish Communities Commemorate Deadliest Hamas Attack Two Years Later

Jewish communities across the United States and Europe have come together to mark the two-year anniversary of the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks on Israel, which resulted in significant loss of life and ongoing trauma. In Broward County, over 700 residents gathered at the David Posnack Jewish Community Center in Davie for a commemoration honoring the victims and showing solidarity with hostages still held. Similar remembrance events took place in Cleveland, where survivors and community leaders spoke about the lasting trauma and the importance of healing and support. European Jewish communities held rallies in London, Manchester, Paris, and Athens, emphasizing a continued fight against antisemitism and remembrance of hostages and victims. In Columbus, Ohio, the Jewish community hosted a kite-flying event inspired by a similar festival in Israel, symbolizing resilience and hope amidst rising antisemitic incidents. Across all events, the message remains one of remembrance, solidarity, and a commitment to confronting hate and supporting those affected by the tragedy.
