Israel: Gunmen from Gaza kill at least 22 in major attack

At least 22 people have been killed in Israel after a major surprise attack with militants crossing into Israel from Gaza during heavy rocket fire.

There are unconfirmed reports that a number of Israelis have been taken captive back into Gaza.

Israel has launched waves of air strikes on targets in Gaza in response.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel is "at war" has vowed that Hamas, Gaza's rulers, will "pay a price it has never known".

The militants crossed the perimeter fence just after dawn, as barrages of rockets were launched from Gaza.

The Israeli military has said that dozens of fighter jets are carrying out air strikes on Hamas sites in Gaza, and that it has mobilised tens of thousands of reservists.

 

At least one Palestinian has been killed in the strikes, local health officials say.

The rocket barrages from Gaza began just after dawn on Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath and the day of the festival of Simchat Torah.

As sirens sounded across Israel, the IDF announced that "terrorists" had infiltrated Israeli territory "in a number of different locations".

It told civilians in southern and central areas to stay next to shelters, and inside shelters in the area surrounding Gaza.

Footage posted online appeared to show a group of heavily armed Palestinian militants dressed in black fatigues driving around Sderot in a pick-up truck.

In one video, the same militants seemed to be exchanging fire with Israeli forces on the streets of the town, which is only 1.6km (1 mile) from Gaza.

 

There are also unconfirmed reports in the Palestinian media that a number of Israelis have been taken captive by militants and footage circulating of Palestinians in Gaza driving Israeli military vehicles.

This map shows where Hamas rockets landed , which is rather different to being "over run"

The 13 civil Israeli places were overrun by Hamas militants at this moment. There's no more IDF and Israeli police & civilians in these settlements.

 

I hope the Israeli citizens could fee in time this morning. From what's available online (see previous post) it's not always the case. Not many hostages were taken...

 

The map of Hamas rocket targets is not the same.

Is it really a war when only one side has cruise missiles, Navy Jet fighter planes and a professionally trained army with high tech weapons? Nope. This is called genocide.

That reminds me of a comment which I read about suicide bombings.

Someone wrote: Give the Palestinians the same amount of fighter planes, attack helicopters and other military weapons and then they won't use suicide bombers.
