Pictures of some of the hostages held captive by Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip since the October 7 attacks, are on display at the Fraenkelufer Synagoge in Berlin's Kreuzberg district on March 18, 2024. Israel began relentless bombardment in Gaza, alongside a ground offensive, after Palestinian militant group Hamas's unprecedented attack on October 7, 2023, which left about 1,160 dead in Israel, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally of official figures. The militants also seized hostages, around 130 of whom Israel believes remain in Gaza, including 33 presumed dead. (Photo by David GANNON / AFP)
