Israel, reeling from the deadliest attack on its territory in half a century, formally declared war on Hamas on October 8, as the conflict's death toll surged to 1,000 after the Palestinian militant group launched a massive surprise assault from Gaza.
Gaza officials reported at least 413 deaths in the impoverished and blockaded enclave of 2.3 million people, which was hammered by Israeli air strikes on 800 targets ahead of what many feared may be a looming ground invasion. Austin directed the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier and group of warships to the eastern Mediterranean, and said that Washington was augmenting fighter aircraft squadrons in the region.Several other countries have reported nationals killed, abducted or missing in the fighting, among them Brazil, Britain, France, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, Nepal, Thailand and Ukraine.
"We'll reach each and every community until we kill every terrorist in Israel," vowed Hagari, a day after Hamas fighters surged into Israel using vehicles, boats and motorised paragliders.Shock and dismay gripped Israel after at least 100 citizens were captured by Hamas and abducted into Gaza, with images circulating on social media of bloodied hostages.
Israel also came under attack from the north when Lebanon's Hezbollah launched guided missiles and artillery shells Sunday"in solidarity" with the unprecedented Hamas offensive, without causing any casualties."We recommend Hezbollah not to come into this," said army spokesman Richard Hecht."If they come, we are ready."
Anti-Israel protests have flared in Iraq, Pakistan and some other majority Muslim countries, while Germany and France were among nations stepping up security around Jewish temples and schools.
