ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN CONFLICT
Hamas's armed wing, al-Qassam Brigades, launched a comprehensive attack on Israel on the morning of October 7, calling it ''Operation Al-Aqsa Flood".
While thousands of rockets were fired from Gaza towards Israel, Palestinian armed groups raided and seized the Beit Hanun-Erez Border Gate on the Gaza-Israel border.
Armed groups then entered the settlements within Israel from here, and the Israeli army launched an attack on the Gaza Strip with dozens of warplanes.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that 770 people died and approximately 4 thousand people were injured in Gaza in Israeli attacks. In the occupied West Bank, it was reported that 18 people lost their lives and approximately 100 people were injured in attacks by Israeli soldiers.
In the statement made by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it was stated that at least 900 Israelis lost their lives and 2,616 people were injured, 157 of them seriously, in the attacks carried out from Gaza.
