Several of the victims were foreigners. Strong international condemnation and Israel's promise to initiate an independent investigation. The war in Gaza broke out on October 7 after an unprecedented and savage attack by Hamas militants in Israel that left 1,160 dead, most of them civilians, according to an AFP count based on Israeli data.
