Members of local Jewish and Palestinian communities discuss the war's impacts across the Atlantic.

On Oct. 7, Hamas, a militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, launched a surprise attack on Israel.

Israel quickly declared war – pounding Gaza with airstrikes and restricting the region’s access to water, food and electricity.

Around 1,400 Israelis and 3,000 Palestinians have been killed.

For this episode, host Maleeha Syed spoke with Maxima Patashnik, a member of the local Jewish community, and Sabrene Odeh, a member of the local Palestinian-American community, about how the war has affected them.
