ISRAEL-HAMAS CONFLICT
Hamas’s armed wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, launched a comprehensive attack against Israel on the morning of October 7, called the “Aqsa Flood.”
As thousands of rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel, Palestinian armed groups attacked and seized the Beit Hanun-Erez border gate on the Gaza-Israel border.
Armed groups then entered settlements inside Israel from here and the Israeli army launched an attack on the Gaza Strip with dozens of fighter jets.
It was reported that 1,400 Israelis, including 306 soldiers, were killed and 5,132 Israelis were wounded in the attacks carried out from Gaza.
The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza announced that 4,651 people, including 1,873 children and 1,023 women, were killed and 14,245 people were injured in Israel’s attacks on Gaza.
It was claimed that 90 Palestinians were killed in attacks by Israeli forces and Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank.
