10/7: 100 Human Stories

10/7: 100 Human Stories, by Haaretz investigative reporter Lee Yaron, is the definitive account of the day Hamas launched an unprecedented terrorist assault on Israel, told through the stories of its victims and the communities they called home. Crashing through the border, attacking from the sea and air, militants indiscriminately massacred civilians in what became the most lethal day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust.


The result of in-depth interviews with survivors, the bereaved and first responders, 10/7 profiles victims from every massacre site — depicting the fullness of their lives, not just their final moments. The victims range from left-wing kibbutzniks to radical right-wingers, from Bedouins and Israeli Arabs to Thai and Nepalese guest workers, from Holocaust survivors to babies. Also a work of political critique, 10/7 interweaves history with broader political analysis of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
