Israelis will on Wednesday mark three years since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, holding a vigil at the site of the Nova music festival near the Gaza border and an event at Hostage Square in Tel Aviv. It is the first anniversary with no hostages still held in Gaza, and it comes just 20 days ahead of Israel's first election since the attack.
