Maoz Inon Lost His Parents in the Oct. 7 Attack. Here's Why He's Still Calling for Peace.



As the world marks the second anniversary of the October 7 attack, we speak with Maoz Inon, an award-winning Israeli peace activist whose parents Bilha and Yakovi were both killed that day when Hamas fighters stormed their kibbutz near the Gaza border. Since then, Inon has become a world-famous advocate of peaceful coexistence for Israelis and Palestinians. His forthcoming book, co-authored with Palestinian peace activist Aziz Abu Sarah, is titled "The Future Is Peace: A Shared Journey Across the Holy Land."
