"Israel, Gaza Conflict -
Hamas Attacks, Netanyahu Declares 'War'"
"Hamas attacks Israel: The ruling Hamas militant group in the Gaza Strip carried out an unprecedented attack on Israel at daybreak Saturday, firing thousands of rockets as dozens of fighters infiltrated the heavily fortified border in several locations by air, land and sea, catching the country off guard on a major holiday. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared war in a televised address, calling for a mass army mobilization, "Not an ‘operation,’ not a ‘round,’ but at war."

"Israel's 'Pearl Harbor Moment'? Hundreds Dead,
Horrifying Scenes Of Entire Families Kidnapped & Whisked Into Gaza"
By Tyler Durden
Excerpt, Continuing Updates:
Update(1430ET): "Former Israel Defense Forces (IDF) international spokesperson Jonathan Conricus has summed up what this day means for Israel, calling in the country's "Pearl Harbor" moment. "The entire system failed. It's not just one component. It's the entire defense architecture that evidently failed to provide the necessary defense for Israeli civilians," he told CNN of the surprise invasion from Gaza militants. "This is a Pearl Harbor type of moment for Israel, where there was reality up until today, and then there will be reality after today."
Town-by-town and farm-by-farm fighting is still underway given Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) reportedly control swathes of southern territory and even military outposts in Israel.
Netanyahu and his cabinet now must be contemplating what will surely be a high-risk rescue operation and potential ground incursion.

Every hour results in even more incredible, shocking footage being released of dead Israeli soldiers and civilians. The Times of Israel is reporting that over 200 Israelis have been killed, and at least 1,000 injured. The death toll is also mounting into the hundreds on the Gaza side as Israel retaliates.
In some instances, there are what look like Israeli soccer moms and their families being escorted barefoot across the border. Video footage suggests at least dozens of Israelis have been taken captive, possibly even hundreds. Grandmothers, men, women, children - the young and old - are being paraded in front of Hamas and PIJ cameras...

At the same time, the expected Israeli aerial assault has begun. In some instances entire apartment housing blocks have been leveled.
