The first cracks may have appeared in the US and Israeli positions on Gaza.
It's reported US President Joe Biden asked for a three day pause in the fighting - but Israel is only willing to consider what Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called "tactical little pauses".
October 7 has haunted Israel every day since and a month past has done little to dull the pain. Fourteen-hundred men and women were killed by Hamas, and more than 240 hostages remain in Gaza - including Avihai Brodutch's three children and wife who were abducted.
"You know, I really miss them," Brodutch said. "Now I've got nothing."
The fight to free hostages and to inflict revenge continues. The Israeli army has declared, for the first time in decades, it is fighting in the heart of Gaza City.
Hamas gunmen have been filming their clashes and, in the north of the strip, there are now intense street battles.
Israel wants to destroy the vast network of Hamas tunnels established there; however, tens of thousands of ordinary people are there too.
On Wednesday, emergency workers were digging for bodies in a town in the south - a place they are told to flee to.
Netanyahu has given the first hint at his endgame - vowing to take total security responsibility for the territory, indefinitely.
"When we don't have that security responsibility, what we have is the eruption of Hamas terror on a scale that we couldn't imagine," Netanyahu told ABC News.
