Tens of thousands gathered in Tel Aviv's Hirkon Park on the eve of the third anniversary of the October 7 attacks for a national memorial ceremony. Omri Shifroni, who lost four family members in Kibbutz Be'eri, called for an official investigation committee to uncover the truth and circumstances of the events. The ceremony's master of ceremonies, Eli Sharabi, a released hostage, emphasized the need to seek truth and not rewrite history.
In parallel, U.S. President Donald Trump spoke with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stating that the opposing side was paying a heavy price for the October 7 actions. Trump, via his Truth Social platform, described October 7 as one of Israel's darkest days, citing the murder and abduction of men, women, and children, and calling the events unimaginable atrocities by Hamas operatives.
Trump further characterized the occasion as a remembrance for victims, an honor for survivors and their families, and for hostages who endured what he described as beyond comprehension. He affirmed, "We will never forget October 7, we will never forget the victims, and we will always stand against the forces of terror and evil."
