A young man's favourite surfboard is seen on a coffin as friends and family pay their respects at the joint funerals of Dana and Carmel Becher, a mother and son who were killed during the Hamas attack of 7/10 on Kibbutz Be'eri on October 24, 2023 in Rehovot, Israel. Carmel's father was injured during the attacks in which he witnessed the deaths of his wife and son, and has since had a leg amputated. As Israel seems poised to invade the Gaza Strip in its campaign to vanquish Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that launched a deadly attack in southern Israel on October 7th, worries are growing of a wider war with multiple fronts, including at the country's northern border with Lebanon. Countries have scrambled to evacuate their citizens from Israel, and Israel has begun relocating residents some communities on its northern border. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of residents of northern Gaza have fled to the southern part of the territory, following Israel's vow to launch a ground invasion. (Photo by Leon Neal/Getty Images)
