Israel and Gaza find themselves engulfed in fear and uncertainty as a new conflict erupts in the region.

Tensions that have smoldered for years have now flared into a full-blown crisis, leaving both sides on edge.

The conflict, which escalated rapidly, has its roots in long-standing political and territorial disputes. As rockets streak across the sky and sirens blare in both Israeli cities and Gaza, civilians on both sides are gripped by fear, seeking shelter and safety.

The international community has expressed deep concern over the situation, calling for an immediate ceasefire and a return to negotiations. Diplomatic efforts are underway, with world leaders urging restraint and a de-escalation of hostilities.

Today, Hamas terrorists have struck at the heart of Israel capturing and killing innocent women and children.

Israel has the right to defend itself – today and in the days to come.

As world leaders condemned the attacks — and questions arose about how Israeli intelligence had been so surprised — ordinary citizens tried to make sense of what was happening.

Schools in Israel will also be closed on Sunday, the country’s education ministry announced.

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
