These 97 people are still being held by Hamas a year after Oct. 7 attacks

Thousands of lives were forever altered and upended when Hamas terrorists invaded Israel on Oct. 7, butchering more than 1,200 people and kidnapping 251 others.

Those hostages whom Hamas abducted and dragged to Gaza as human shields and bargaining chips quickly became a rally cry.

Israelis and supporters of Israel around the world plastered their images on posters across so no one could forget their names and faces.
