Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced a “complete siege” on Gaza on Monday. The blockade includes a ban on the admission of food, water, electricity, and fuel. This move is seen as Israel’s retaliation against Hamas following their largest attack on the country in decades.

On Saturday, Israel officially declared a state of war as of 06:30 a.m. local time. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are grappling with an unprecedented level of aggression from Hamas, the militant group based in Gaza.

Approximately 3,000 rockets have been launched into Israeli territory, terrorists have infiltrated Israel’s borders, and civilians, including children and families, are under attack. The Israeli government has stated unequivocally that “Hamas will pay a heavy price for this inhumane attack against Israel.”

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have initiated “Operation Swords of Iron”. This military operation aims to strike back at Hamas and protect Israeli citizens from further harm. The operation involves a coordinated effort between various branches of the IDF, including ground, air, and naval forces.

“We are setting up a complete siege of Gaza: No electricity, no food, no water, no gas. Everything is closed. We are fighting human animals. And we are acting accordingly,” Gallant said in a video statement.

The military blockade comes after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a stark warning to the Hamas terrorists and vowed to use “all the strength” of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to “destroy Hamas’s capabilities” following the terrorist attacks.

“We will destroy them and will forcefully avenge this dark day that they have forced on Israel and its citizens,” Netanyahu said.

In a direct message to the residents of Gaza, the Prime Minister said, “Leave now because we will operate forcefully everywhere.” He revealed that the IDF is already “clearing the terrorists out of the last communities,” going “community by community, house by house,” to restore Israeli control.

On Sunday, the Israeli Air Force released footage of striking a compound belonging to the head of the intelligence department of the Hamas terrorist organization.

Shuja’iyya used as a “terror nest” for the Hamas terrorist organization, was also struck down.

Below are more updates from the Israeli Air Force:

According to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, at least 91 children were among the more than 590 individuals killed by the Israeli air strike on Monday morning. It was said that the airstrikes also injured almost 2,900 people.

It’s only a matter of time until a ground invasion of Gaza begins.
