Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a statement in response to surprise attacks from Palestinian fighters, declaring, “We are at war, and we will win it.” Netanyahu conveyed his determination via a video posted on social media platform X. In this address, he met with the leaders of security agencies, instructing them to clear communities infiltrated by terrorists. Additionally, he called for a significant mobilization of reserves and an unprecedented response against the perceived enemy.

The escalating conflict led to Israel launching at least two airstrikes on Gaza, responding to rocket barrages originating from the Palestinian territory. Hamas claimed responsibility for firing more than 5,000 rockets from Gaza.

The situation remains volatile, with international concern growing as both sides continue to exchange hostilities. Efforts to broker a ceasefire and restore calm are urgently needed to prevent further loss of life and suffering.
