As part of Israel's counter-offensive after Hamas' attacks, the military bombed the house of Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif's father on Wednesday. Israel says its fighter jets struck over 200 Hamas targets in Gaza's Al Furkan neighborhood in the third aerial assault there, hitting 450 sites in the area in the past day. This comes as the conflict entered its fifth day with the death toll in Israel exceeding 1,000, over 2,800 injured and 50 missing or captive. Israel says over 4,500 rockets have been fired from Gaza so far. Bombing Deif's father's home signals Israel's intent to intensify its campaign against Hamas' leadership and infrastructure.
