Israel-Hamas War

The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas (Israel-Hamas conflict) fired about 5 thousand rockets at Israel. Israel declared war on Hamas and launched airstrikes, vowing to avenge the horrific attack. More than 500 people have been killed on both sides so far.

Important information regarding the case:

  1. After the attack by Hamas, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared war. He said his country was at war and Hamas would pay a heavy price for the attack. He released a video saying, “Citizens of Israel, we are at war. This is not an operation and tension but a war and we will win. Hamas will pay a heavy price.”

  2. On the day of the Jewish holiday, more than 5,000 rockets began flying into the sky over Israel and loud sirens sounded throughout Israel. The country’s defense forces also called it an infiltration by Hamas militants. Hamas is considered a terrorist group. Images emerging from Israel showed that paragliders were used in the attack and bullets were fired at cars passing by on roads.

  3. Defense Minister Yoav Galant said that Hamas made a big mistake by going to war against Israel. “Hamas made a grave mistake this morning and started a war against Israel. IDF soldiers (Israeli army) are fighting the enemy on every front,” Gallant said in a statement on Saturday.

  4. The Indian Embassy in Israel has asked its citizens to remain vigilant and follow safety protocols, as local authorities have issued an advisory for residents there. “Please exercise caution, avoid unnecessary movement and stay close to safety shelters,” local Israeli officials said in an advisory. The Indian Embassy has issued a helpline number and email to reach its citizens.

  5. “The Israel Defense Forces declare immediate war,” the Israeli military said, vowing to defend its country. There have been massive rocket attacks from Gaza into Israeli territory and terrorists have entered Israeli territory through various entry points.

  6. Hamas’ weapons wing announced that it had launched “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood” and fired more than 5,000 rockets in “the first 20-minute attack”. “We have decided to put an end to all this, with the help of God, so that the enemy will understand that the time of irresponsible carelessness is over,” Hamas militant leader Mohammed Deif said in a recorded message.

  7. Sirens sounded in Jerusalem and across Israel as attacks were reported in several locations in southern and central Israel. The government urged citizens to stay close to shelters and appealed to those living near the Gaza Strip to stay indoors.

  8. Horrifying images of people fleeing their homes in the Gaza border areas have emerged. Hundreds of men and women were seen walking away from the Israeli border carrying blankets and food.

  9. Since Hamas took power in Gaza in 2007, there have been several wars between Israel and the Palestinian faction. New war comes as Israel closes its borders to Gaza workers. After this the tension increased a lot. So far this year, 247 Palestinians, 32 Israelis and two foreigners have been killed in the conflict between the two. It includes both combatants and civilians.

  10. Hamas said people have to draw the line for business. The violence erupted a day after Israel said it continued to commit crimes on Palestinian land, particularly at the al-Aqsa holy site in Jerusalem.
