The Gaza militant group launched its biggest sustained assault in years, prompting Israel's military to call up reservists and order retaliatory strikes.
Palestinian militants from the armed group Hamas launched a surprise coordinated attack on Israel by land, sea and air on Saturday morning. Israel declared war in response. What Did Hamas Do and Why Is It Attacking Israel Now? Thousands of rockets were fired into Israel early Saturday to begin what Hamas called “Operation Al-Aqsa Storm,” Mohammed Deif, Hamas’s secretive military chief, said. The group’s forces crossed the Gaza border and entered Israeli towns and villages in the country’s south.
Has Anyone Been Killed? Around 300 Israelis, mostly civilians, were confirmed dead and 1,590 wounded since the start of the war, according to Israeli authorities. The Israeli military said soldiers and civilians had been captured and taken into Gaza. Authorities said there were also Israeli hostages being held by militants in at least two Israeli towns.
