Dozens of Hamas militants infiltrated Israel in a surprise attack with videos showing them shooting in the streets. At least 1 Israeli woman has been killed so far by intense Gaza rocket fire reaching as far as Jerusalem. Various social media videos appear to show dozens of civilians have been killed by Hamas and bodies being paraded. Houses in Sderot were reportedly taken over by Hamas gunmen who remain at large. The infiltration and rocket attack occurred after dawn following the Sukkot holiday, catching Israelis off guard. Hamas military commander said over 5000 rockets were fired to launch 'Operation Al-Aqsa Storm' in a broadcast speech. Israel stated it would defend citizens and make Hamas pay heavily. The militant attack sparked an emergency security meeting as Hamas vowed to continue strikes in a major escalation.
