Zitat:Israel at War: Dead rises above 250
The injured surpassed 1,500 people, the Health Ministry said. The IDF confirmed Hamas had Israeli hostages.
Within hours of the attack, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared, what was already painfully evident, that the country was at war.
“Citizens of Israel, we are at war, not in an operation or in rounds, but at war,” he said before entering a hastily called cabinet meeting in Tel Aviv.
As of press time, more than 250 Israelis have been killed, and more than 1,500 wounded. An unknown number have been kidnapped to Gaza and are still being held hostage. This was the largest number of Israeli casualties, especially civilians, in decades.
