In tonight’s top story, the ongoing conflict between Israel and Gaza has reached its six-month mark since the Hamas-led attack that killed 1,200 people in Israel. The health authority in Gaza reports that Israeli bombs and its ground invasions have killed over 33,000 Palestinians in what Israel calls its efforts to wipe out Hamas. Calls for a ceasefire have grown louder, and peace talks have resumed in Egypt. Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reiterated that the conflict will not stop until all hostages are released, which is a red-line central to the peace talks that are resuming in Cairo. Meanwhile, families of hostages taken by Hamas in Israel fear that time is running out to save their loved ones. Redmond Shannon reports.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau continued a week of nearly daily pre-budget announcements in Montreal on Sunday. He promised to spend billions of dollars on artificial intelligence research, skills training, and regulation. However, this spending has been subject to controversy. As David Akin reports, all that spending has the leader of the official opposition calling for restraint.

Families of the victims of Oct. 7 attack are still mourning the loss of their loved ones, including Judith Weinstein-Haggy and her husband, who were killed during the attack. Their daughter is urging Canada to do more to repatriate their remains. Meanwhile, more than 100 hostages are still being held in Gaza, causing ongoing concern for their safety. Crystal Goomansingh reports on this.

Tomorrow, millions of Canadians living in the eastern part of the nation will witness a total solar eclipse, a once-in-a-lifetime event. The eclipse will be visible across dozens of communities, with cities in the path of totality expecting a large influx of eclipse watchers. The timing and geography of the eclipse will play a crucial role, as only those in the "path of totality" will be able to witness the full effect. Eric Sorensen breaks down all the details.

On the sixth anniversary of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash, which claimed 16 lives and injured 13 others, Canadians are honoring the legacy of Logan Boulet, a defenseman on the junior hockey team who donated his organs and sparked a national movement. In the weeks following the tragedy, more than 150,000 Canadians signed up as donors, and Boulet's family continues to inspire others through "Green Shirt Day."
