A bereaved father heckled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday (October 5) during a state memorial ceremony for civilian victims of the Hamas-led October 7, 2023 attack and the war that followed.

The state of Israel marked its official memorial day for victims of the Palestinian militants' attack that killed some 1,200 and took over 250 as hostages into Gaza in the worst such attack in the history of the Jewish State.

While Netanyahu was delivering a speech at the civilian memorial ceremony in Jerusalem, a man identified by Israeli media as Yaakov Godo, father of Tom who was killed by Palestinian militants on October 7, 2023, stood up and walked up to the stage shouting at Netanyahu. He was quickly escorted away by security.

Earlier on Monday, Netanyahu addressed a memorial ceremony for military and security personal killed in the attack and in the war that followed.

Israel launched its Monday state memorial events at 06:29, the exact time when the Hamas-led attack began, with lowering of the national flag in numerous locations, including in Israeli President Isaac Herzog's residence in Jerusalem and in Zikim army base in southern Israel, one of the targets of the attack.

In the war that Israel launched on Gaza after the October 7, 2023 attack, it killed 74,000 Palestinians, according to Hamas health ministry.
