Israel Launches Airstrikes on Gaza Following Deadly Hamas Attack
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Israel responded with heavy airstrikes on Gaza on Sunday following one of the deadliest days of violence it had experienced in decades. Hamas fighters carried out a rampage through Israeli towns, resulting in hundreds of casualties on both sides and escalating tensions that could lead to a major conflict in the Middle East.

The conflict also showed signs of spreading beyond the confines of blockaded Gaza. Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah, backed by Iran, engaged in artillery and rocket exchanges. In Alexandria, two Israeli tourists and their Egyptian guide were shot dead, highlighting the potential for violence to extend beyond Israel’s borders.

Israeli airstrikes targeted housing blocks, tunnels, a mosque, and the homes of Hamas officials in Gaza, leading to the tragic loss of over 300 lives, including 20 children. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to exact “mighty vengeance” for the events of that day.

Meanwhile, in southern Israel, Hamas militants continued to engage Israeli security forces in combat, a day after a surprise, multi-pronged assault that involved rocket barrages and attacks on army bases and towns. Israeli TV reported at least 600 casualties and dozens abducted.

Israel’s military, facing questions about its failure to prevent the attack, stated that it was still in combat but had regained control of most infiltration points along security barriers, killed hundreds of attackers, and taken dozens as prisoners.

Hamas’s dawn attack on Saturday marked the largest and deadliest incursion into Israel since Egypt and Syria launched an unexpected assault 50 years ago during the Yom Kippur war in an attempt to reclaim lost territory.

This escalating conflict could have broader implications, potentially jeopardizing U.S.-backed efforts to normalize relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia. Such a security realignment could pose challenges to Palestinian aspirations for self-determination and could constrain Iran, a key backer of Hamas.

Lebanon’s Hezbollah, another significant regional ally of Iran, previously fought a war with Israel in 2006 and expressed solidarity with Hamas. However, Israel’s army spokesperson suggested caution, stating, “We recommend Hezbollah not to come into this, and I don’t think they will.” The situation remains highly volatile, with concerns about further escalation in the region.
