Part 1: Behind October 7: Gaza's History from 1967 to Oct. 7, 2023

Since October 7, 2023, Gaza has been at the heart of a brutal war between Israel and Hamas. But this tiny 25-mile strip's troubled history started long before the current hostilities. Since Israel's capture of Gaza in the 1967 Six-Day War, the strip has been caught in a cycle of conflict, shifting power, and shattered hopes. From occupation to Hamas’ rise to power, Gaza’s turbulent past set the stage for October 7, 2023, when the conflict reached a horrifying peak. This episode kicks off a three-part series that will delve into Gaza’s history, the events of October 7, and the ongoing aftermath we continue to witness today. -------------- Sources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1W5Kd9d5WC68NoeQzLB8uZbY_CwLCVdQxi74nxeHDJMU/edit?usp=sharing
