The Gaza militant group launched its biggest sustained assault in years, prompting Israel's military to call up reservists and order retaliatory strikes.
Israel Defense Forces are still going house to house in the southern part of the country near Gaza, in an effort to clear the area of hundreds of Hamas militants who crossed over during the day.
“As we’re speaking, the situation in Israel is still not fully under control,” said IDF spokesman Jonathan Conricus in a live briefing on X social-media platform, around 1:30 a.m. Tel Aviv time. He estimated there were a “high number of hundreds” of militants who crossed over, but didn’t say how many might remain. He said IDF had killed more than 200 terrorists so far. Israel has maintained that Hamas is responsible for deaths and casualties on both sides.
