At exactly 06:29 this morning—the moment the Hamas-led attack began three years ago—the Israel Police Commissioner and senior command observed a moment of silence at the old police station in Sderot. The force held simultaneous salutes at all locations where police officers fell during the October 7 massacre, according to a police statement.
The police ceremony was one of several commemorations held across Israel this morning to mark three years since the October 7 massacre. As The Zioneer reported earlier today, the commissioner observed a moment of silence at the old Sderot station at 06:29. The force said the salute was repeated at all locations where police officers fell during the Hamas-led attack. The ceremony follows military memorial events held by the IDF across all sectors at the same hour, as part of the National Memorial Day for the War of Resurrection.
