It was just a matter of hours before Israel retaliated against Hamas after its 7 October attack which sent shock waves around the world. But what is the government's long-term goal and who is paying the price?

Israel took just hours to prepare its retaliation against Hamas and a few weeks for a ground offensive, after the 7 October attack which killed more than 1,400 of its citizens and injured over 3,300.

Both Israeli intelligence and the military seemed to be caught by surprise by the worst assault on Jews since the Holocaust. This created further anger and division within the people of Israel towards the government.
