Israel-Gaza War Updates: Israel Vows Hamas's Destruction After Deadly Attack
Israel Palestine War News Updates: Nearly 3,600 people have been killed in Israel And Gaza, five days after the sudden Hamas strikes triggered a catastrophic war in the region.
Nearly 3,600 people have been killed in Israel And Gaza, five days after the sudden Hamas strikes triggered a catastrophic war in the region. The United Nations said that more than 3,38,000 people have been forced to flee their homes in the Gaza Strip as heavy Israeli bombardments continue to hit the Palestinian enclave.
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed the complete destruction of the Hamas group. "Every Hamas member is a dead man," the veteran right-wing Israeli leader said, again likening them to the ISIS group and promising: "We will crush them and destroy them as the world has destroyed Daesh."
Israel claims that it has regained control of the Gaza border areas from the group. Israel has also reported shelling from Lebanon and Syria which it has responded to with its own air strikes. Lebanese group Hezbollah claimed the strikes were to avenge the deaths of its members by Israeli defence forces.
