A surprise attack by Hamas militants has led to the deaths of hundreds of people in Israel-Gaza conflict.
The conflict, which has been ongoing for years, took a deadly and unexpected twist when Hamas launched a series of coordinated attacks that caught Israeli forces off guard.
The attacks, which began in the early hours of the morning, targeted various locations across Israel and Gaza, including populated areas and military installations.
The suddenness and scale of the assault left both civilians and military personnel scrambling to respond, resulting in a high casualty count.
Israeli defense forces have mobilized in response to the attacks, launching airstrikes and initiating ground operations in an effort to neutralize the threat posed by Hamas.
The international community has expressed deep concern over the escalation of violence and has called for an immediate ceasefire.
The situation on the ground remains tense and fluid, with reports of ongoing clashes between Israeli forces and Hamas militants.
Hospitals in the region are overwhelmed with the wounded, and there are fears that the death toll could continue to rise.
