6:02 pm
well, the mood is solemn brands. this is the day that people walk in memory thing, which a lot of people here are associated with the west day of their lives. and at the same time, given what many c as the successes of the military of the ideas in the north. it's also a day of mixed feelings and looking at the according to the jewish calendar. israel is going into a new year now and aust, how they feel about. and they say they are optimistic and also being here today. they also know that this is overshadowed by the, by the attacks on the type of 7. now right now we're just seeing the collaboration has just stops and then we're sending and hostage square in the middle of tel aviv, a place where families of hostages come thoughts off of the attacks. this is
6:03 pm
a place, a lot of people have been demonstrating of the past year for the release of the hostages. and right now the commemoration has just started head behind me the public viewing of the ceremony. that's very families have been organizing in televi tv's for tonight. and he really, we know that this can not be an easy time, particularly for the, the families of the people who died a year ago, but also for the families of the hostages and hostages that are still being held in it goes in, do we know how our how are these families? how were they coping well, a lot of families, i suppose it's um, um, psychologically they are guessing psychological support as many say that this is a day. this is an experience. they will never suggest and that will hold some their entire lives and other families who have still have relatives is held hostage in
6:04 pm
golf out by from us. and they have been a brilliant as the going out, taking to the streets streets every saturday evening cooling for beverly, smoking, the voice of hubs with various demonstrations across the country. because they know that they are in the way they will ever gets a restful sleep ever again in their lives is when the hostages are returned to them when their family members and their friends all back in italy. i understand that this is not the only ceremony that is planned for today, and some called this one, an unofficial commemoration, right? that's right. it's under the ultimate, they reflect the deep division of the deepest trust. many feel towards the is really government and many for see that's it was down to the government's failure
6:05 pm
to protect them on that fateful day on a type of 7 last 2. when over 6000 come off a militant cross, the border from garza into israel and killed over 1200 people in so many hundreds hostage. and many people have been you know they've been demanding a hosted feel. they want to see that family members and friends back, but so far the pos, yeah, we've seen very little progress on a hosted steel. and this ceremony is meant to not turn the highlight the bravery um um hers and the of many people um not say but also all the shortcomings on the same is about say something that they've done since the government is a currently fine thing. yeah. and when obviously the biggest shortcomings since the day is the fact that not all of the hostages have been released and return calls. what is known about the situation of those hostages, i think, is about a 100 people who are still we believe are still being held
6:06 pm
the that's why it's a little over a 100 hostages. i still believe so the cats and dogs are, however, when you talk to officials and as well, but also to ordinary is where the citizens, there's very little higher that many of them are still alive. and the question of whether that will ever be returned is also a very big one. apologies for the best um, but essentially what we're seeing as well right now is the attempts and focusing on the northern border on the northern front on the fights. we've had paula, and that's also something that many hospice families have been heavily criticizing the government for that they are shifting the focus the attention away from the hostages. and they say that's ultimately the only way that we're going to get through this is when we have, if we have a c fire and a hostage, steel as the new way to also hill this country again. okay. dw emily gordon
6:07 pm
and tel aviv. they're on the ground forest as israel marks one day since the last era attacks. emily, thank you. will be coming back to you a little bit later. i all right with me in the studio now is our middle east and eliza familiar face here. shawnee was on is trying to get to see you. and unfortunately we're seeing each other on the worst of of times. worst of terms right now. talk to me about how people inside and outside is real. are living through this day hi phrase, or is it to take a morning? i mean, the media outlets in the country has been we living moments from a year ago, minutes by minute. we've pushed on 2 occasions that were sent to millions of israelis were we living some of those terrible moments and horror that they have experienced then and re lived again. and in the last days have been seeing more and more reports of, of testimonies that were so far not so known. and these are the media is in these
6:08 pm
really is all of them. they're very much leaving their morning. i think, you know, however, and we see also today around the world, there's a lot of, of, of collaborations that is when you use that are taking place across europe and the states, of course, in israel. but i think it's, it's, it's a very rare moment in the you where israel, you know, this is how it started on october 7th. the 1st 2 weeks were such that the whole world was tending by the side of israel soon enough that has shifted israel's actions in gaza. that led to the death of almost 40042000 palestinians. have put a lot of criticism, you know, on israel and if shift to the way things are being seen. and i think in that aspect, we need to keep this mind in mind that this is also quite controversial and seem differently by other parts of the world. that are not as real and also supportive of as well. it's i know we, we've talked many times about what happens when you are during the day and then the follow up from that i know inside is real. they, they talk about is real before october 7th is real after october 7th. i mean it'd
6:09 pm
be even more than the inflection point. talk to me about what changed? well, something fundamental and broke is really is i think, throughout the history of course have had many conflicts and clashes and wars with different deaths in a parties around in the region. but they've always trusted these really military. they've always trust the daddy of the feeling was that the, that the, that the mightiness of the idea of especially it's going to protect is really, is no matter what, what and where and what happened on october 7th. i think this is also the root cause of this terrible shock and horror and ended the distrust of we're seeing between israelis and the government is the feeling that they were banned, that they were left alone. that the might, the military and the government was not functioning on that date, which was which led to the current. and of course, and of course, in the 1st weeks that followed the after where and jewels and civil society took over a government trolls. and that's to many people who had to flee their homes, then they're not home. and not any time going to be home in israel, johnny standby,
6:10 pm
we want to go back now and to tell of the, the memorial ceremony organized there by the families and the victims into hostages . attendance and the event was initially forecast to be of a tens of thousands for security reasons. number of people permitted to take part has been greatly reduced and we're just going to take a moment now for the minute of silence that is being held to remember the lines that were lost exactly one year ago today.
6:11 pm
shy even though obviously somebody was off, maybe you in the go on, it should be shut back. but okay, if you go tonight as long as that would be over there until it be before the executive, numeration marketing and exactly one year since i'm the flu, the mosse kara attacks inside is real and frank. the time for that, just a moment of silence was 10 minutes after 7. so $710.00, exactly. you know, symbolic for october 7th, a year ago. so this, the ceremony that was organized by the families, it seemed to be. but by as real, as you were asking what the, what the feelings there are today seems to be the more, the more a popular one,
6:12 pm
definitely not as controversial as the national one that is organized by the government will be broadcast later by is really to be and has been seen very much politicized. what, why are there? yeah, it's could explain that. why are there to and why is the one that is coming later? why is that so controversial? well, the feeling is that the government is trying to take over the narrative of how this, you know, turbo eventually remembered and what part the government had in it. you know, while at the same time a lot of hostages, the families feel that there's a lot of accountability that the government is lacking and has been lacking in the last year. and there's also the feeling that you know, because of, of how controversial and now he's and his government is they, they were cries before those ceremonies took place to, to try and maybe take this uh, the ceremony outside of the government to maybe somebody else. the president, for example, was offering to take over and to make it more of a unifying one. and this is just to show you the very big distrust and the very, very, very big drift that is opening, you know,
6:13 pm
a view which is really society between those where supporters of this government more leading to the right. and those were very much not big supporters of the government. more central left public, you know, is, is we see these pictures of people they are, or you have to wonder what's going through their minds. obviously there's a tremendous amount of sadness. but can we say that a year ago when this happened, that most is railings would if you'd ask them where we would be a year from now that most of them would have said something completely different than where we are right now. definitely, i think the very few people, if any, that could, you know, predict that a year on this is where israel will be. not only is this war with gaza, far from being over and homeless is still strong and standing. we've, we've, you know, we're still launching missiles of israel until you know, the be very, you know, days. so not only that, but israel his as, as in golf thing and further conflict and with his fall on the but on,
6:14 pm
under north of course there's yvonne and in a way for, for us and more for the leader of how much this is the best scenario he could have wished for, he wants to say israel stretched to the max and engulfed in as many conflicts as possible. and of course it brings very little incentive for him to try and compromise on a new deal or anything of that sort. and this is also, i think, a very moment today for the hostages families that they feel we are back in the fall side. because the last couple of weeks were dominated very much. but what's happening in lebanon and the success that these really forces have had their, and force a need to bring back that the, the people that we are stranded to that, to sleep from the houses along the northern border. and the is that the hostages seem to have been left behind at even the defense for the start. we've, with a talk that he had with, with some families over the weekend, had admitted that he was not part of the cabinet discussions in the last weeks. the topic of the hostages, so of course that their, their time is running out. those hostages were talking about 90. 7 of them were
6:15 pm
taken on that day or a year ago. i don't think any of their family members have imagined that a year on they would still be pleading the government to try and bring their loved ones home when you get your take on something that that happened recently at a press conference or prime minister netanyahu was asked about the hostages, and there was a reporters who had spoken with the wife of a hostage, who was still being held in garza his name. i think it was keith. the reporter keeps table. yes. and the reporter asked the prime minister, what is your message to his wife, and can you promise her that keith will come home alive? the answer for missing yahoo was, i can promise you that keith will get and the other houses will come home. but he didn't say alive, correct? yeah, that was intentional. probably. is that what we're you're supposed to read into it that i think you're reading it very wisely. brent that we know for over at least 30 of those 97 were officially pronounced that by they is really when you try and based on intelligence and all sorts of other analysis.
