The bloody open war between Israel and Gaza militias behind the massive attack launched by Hamas is already settled with more than 1,100 fatalities in just two daysas well as thousands of injured.

In the last hours, The Israeli army has undertaken harsh reprisals with intense bombings on the Strip, which has experienced its deadliest day in 15 years, with almost 300 deaths in just 24 hours: the Israeli airstrikes have already killed at least 413 people in the enclave, according to Palestinian authorities, including about twenty children.

Israeli bombing, which began shortly after the Hamas attack, continued overnight and throughout Sunday. “A night of terror”in the words of Kayed Hammad, a resident of the Strip, who explained to laSexta that Israel has cut off the electricity and fuel supply in the enclave.

For his part, Israel’s Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant, has promised an exemplary punishment and has assured that “this action will be remembered in Gaza for the next 50 years and they will regret having started it,” after an unprecedented offensive by Hamas, which leaves at least 700 Israeli victims and a hundred people kidnapped by militias.

The day before, the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu promised revenge and urged Palestinian civilians to leave Gaza, warning that Israel would use “all its power to destroy Hamas’ capabilities” and reduce its hideouts “to rubble.” The reality, however, is that The civilian population does not have the option of leaving the Stripwhere hundreds of Palestinians have already died.

On the other hand, and with several US citizens among the victims of the Hamas attack, Joe Biden’s government describes its offensive as “a massive terrorist attack that is shooting dead Israeli civilians in their cities, in their homes and, as we have seen so graphically, literally dragging people down.”

This is how his Secretary of State has condemned him, Anthony Blinkenwhile President Biden has promised Nentayahu that the Additional US military aid ‘on the way’ and that more will arrive “in the coming days.”

Israel evacuates the border area with Gaza

Meanwhile, Israel is evacuating to civilians in 25 towns spread along the entire border with the Gaza Strip, where also has accumulated hundreds of armored vehicleswhich suggests a large-scale ground offensive.

Something that, however, would be a complicated operation, according to Yago Rodríguez, director of ‘The Political Room’, since “urban battles are very tough” and “it exposes itself to many casualties”. Furthermore, he warns, “Arab countries that have so far endured the Abraham Accords, if there are many images of fallen civilians, may end up retracting those agreements.”

Meanwhile, the fighting between the army and the militiamen of Hamas that remain in Israeli territory. On the other hand, Israel bombed southern Lebanon this Sunday after Hezbollah claimed a mortar attack against Israel, while in Egypt a police officer has shot dead two Israeli tourists and a local guide in Alexandria.
