Israelis took part in somber ceremonies on Monday. They marked one year since the Hamas led attack  killed around 1,200 people, most of them civilians. The war that began in the Gaza Strip on that same day is still not over.

People across the region are also waiting anxiously as Israel is expected to retaliate for the Iranian missile attack on Oct. 1. The World’s Matthew Bell reports.
