"Citizens of Israel, we are at war. This is not an "operation" or an "escalation", it is a war. And we will win. Hamas will pay an unprecedented price for this war. I ordered to clear the border settlements of terrorists and to mobilize the reservists," Netanyahu emphasized.

The media noted that the prime minister made his first public statement on the attack about five hours after the terrorist group based in Gaza launched its attack.

As a reminder, on the morning of October 7, thousands of rockets were fired at Israel from Gaza. For its part, the Israeli army began to carry out air strikes on Palestine. Armed Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israeli territory and opened chaotic machine gun fire.

There are casualties among civilians. Dozens of wounded people are also reported. One of the rockets hit a building in Tel Aviv. In addition, the sounds of explosions were heard in Jerusalem.
