Israel Declares War After Unprecedented Attack From Gaza (18+ Videos)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gives a statement on October 7, 2023 (Screen grab)

Israel is at war, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared in his first public statement on the unprecedented large-scale attack that was launched by Palestinian armed factions in the Gaza Strip on October 7.

“Citizens of Israel, we are at war, and we will win,” Netanyahu said. “The enemy will pay a price like they have never known before,” he says, in his first public statement on the matter, some five hours since the start of the assault by the Gaza-based terror group.”

Palestinian factions led by the Hamas Movement launched the surprise attack in the early morning. The attack began with a barrage of hundreds of rockets that targeted southern and central Israel. Several groups of Palestinian fighters later infiltrate nearby settlements and military positions from land, sea and air.

The attack, codenamed “Al-Qasa Flood,” came a day after Israel and the Arab world marked the 50th anniversary of the surprise attack by Egypt and Syria that launched the Yom Kippur War.

Netanyahu’s declaration was reaffirmed by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) top spokesman, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, who said that Israel was “in a state of war”.

“The IDF has declared a state of war. We are in a state of war,” Hagari says in a live video statement.

Israel’s Health Ministry says 545 people have been hospitalized since the start of the large-scale Palestinian attack. Meanwhile, the Magen David Adom emergency service said that at least 22 people have been killed. The death toll is expected to rise.

Heberew and Arab media reported that more than 50 Israeli soldiers and civilians were captured by Palestinian fighters in the early hours of the attack.

Several settlements and military positions near the Gaza Strip are reportedly still in the nads of Palestinian fighters. Clashes continue there.

In an initial response to the attack, Israel launched a series of strikes against Gaza. The Israeli Air Force said that it had dropped 16 tons of munitions on the strip. 17 military compounds and four headquarters belonging to Hamas were among other targets, according to the IDF.

From its side, Hamas’s military wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, released footage showing a deadly raid on an IDF position, several captured Israeli soldiers as well as the destruction of a Merkava Mark IV main battle tank with a drone and the capture of its crew.

The Palestinian large-scale attack drew condemnations from the United States, United Kingdom and the European Union. However, it was praised by Iran and Lebanon’s Hezbollah, key allies of Hamas. Meanwhile, Russia, Egypt and Saudi Arabia called for de-escalation.

The IDF will likely restore control over the Gaza border in the upcoming few hours, then step up strikes on the strip. Heavy Israeli losses could force Netanyahu to order a ground offensive, which will lead to weeks or even months of fighting.

the iron dome isn’t designed to track and neutralize 5000+ incoming projectiles at the same time

Xsayarsa

why ? what is creators expected ?

John Brown

the satanic zionists are so corrupt they can’t help but to even rip off themselves. corrupt israeli companies create garbage iron dome. no good in combat as it is a fraud but great at making zio companies lots of money.

“the palestinian large-scale attack drew contamination from the united states, united kingdom and the european union.”

also, there is fragile long-term diplomacy with benefit in its infancy that might be thrown away

israelis are westernized. they care about going to clubs and traveling and posting on instagram. they don’t want to die fighting in a ditch in gaza. any attack on gaza by ground forces will leave many israelis dead. i don’t think many of them have the motivation or will to fight hand to hand.

palestinians, on the other hand, want to liberate their country and fight for justice. they have more will to fight.

the only way this will end is with israel occupying the gaza strip, something they always wanted to do, and now they have a pretext for it. the invaders are probably not even palestinian but if they are, then it’s just a couple hundred of guys who were bribed to stage this militarily insignificant attack.

anyway rest assured that this is just another cia op and very bad news for actual palestinians.

i think its clear israel will win, but the scale of this means hamas have already won and have set a precedent for the future. israel is on borrowed time. as is europe now.

Sunny

its going to take literal divine intervention to dethrone the zionists right now. they have all the resources, media, mic, fake politicians and everyone else who serves them knowingly or unknowingly. who is going to stop them exactly?

Itsme

not stop but inflict heavy loses and casualties with the western weapons that ukraine sold on the black market, javelins, stingers etc. and of course drones

Sunny

so then what’s the purpose. let’s just say the palestinians exceed everyone’s expectations and 1000 israeli soldiers are dead, but afterwards occupy the gaza strip and palestine ceases to exist. is that a victory in some way? does it serve a purpose? how would you feel being a palestinian right now, knowing that you won’t have a home in the near future?

the only other option is that this will be a bigger play than what i described and is actually the catalyst for a planned ww3.

it’s called resistance. if you were in their shoes, you would want to fight as well. the alternative is extinction. would you prefer that?

Sunny

i get that and if they can somehow actually pull it off, good for them. but this just assures their accelerated destruction.

the jewish controlled warmongers in the west are already #standingwithisrael and unlike russia, palestine doesn’t have anything to defend themselves with.

pappagone

insignificant? where do you live? in europe? hering from your liar medias?

Sunny

i’m sorry, are you actually arguing that a few hundred, maybe a few thousand insurgents are going to achieve results of military significance?

russia is still busy fighting in ukraine and russia has a bit more military equipment than hamas does don’t you think? not that i am implying israel comes anywhere close to the military power of ukraine but the military difference between palestine and israel is like the distance between earth and the moon.

well no one would ever fight back if they thought that, the french resistance fought the nazi occupation with a few machine guns and explosives, the alternative is to be a slave.

the russian military operation in syria should hand over their weapons to the syrians. to help them get the occupation out of syria.

long live palestine and hamas, all of palestine should seize the chance today is the day you will win your freedom and your lands back, destroy all the jews and take back your freedom. do not shed any tears for images of jews killed as those same jews have been killing palestinian women, men, elderly, children medical people for over 70+ years so whatever you see feel no pity for the jews as the day of judgement is upon the jews, long live hamas and palestine.

tactical and strategicaly not a intelligent move from hamas, because it should have been coordinated with an dual attack from gaza and from south lebanon from hezbollah to more than double the effect, overload the isr air defence and to push deeper in and targeting airfields, bases, arms and ammo depots for capture. israel 4sure now will now bomb hamas to the ground, but still questionable if they will dare to go fully into gaza in bloody street fights.

apparently hezbollah will join in if israel enter gazza. clearly now is their time to strike. i would have thought that syrian factions would also enter golan. dissapointing responce from egypt who could have played a decisive blow.

TomB.

a few clips show captured and short after dead israeli sodliers and civilists. the palestinian resistance is just and legitimated, but the torture and killings of civilians or captured unarmed were, are and always will be crimes and do a massive medial and political harm for the palestinian resistance.

once again the palestinians bravely fight for their freedom while the cowardly hezbolah and iran stand by and do nothing.

bert didddle

maybe it was a trap? too much went wrong for it to have been an accident. no detection of rocket imports, buid up, early iron dome warning, quick responce special forces. they allowed it to happen so they can declare war and do what they want over the next few weeks.

Itsme

i bet you a lot of weaponry who disapeared from ukraine, sold on the black market will now show up in this conflict, so i hope. israel gave ukraine support, under the table, what goes around comes around.

problem with that is getting it into gazza.
