Other sources are saying 300.

I don’t know.

But I do not believe Hamas is killing random people – except with rockets, which is unavoidable.

This is a very serious operation!

(I know you people are complaining about long quotes in articles, but this is important. This is the beginning of a massive war. The Guardian is going to be the most honest news outlet that has access to the information.)

The Guardian:

Israel and Hamas are once again at war after the Palestinian militant group launched a large aerial and ground operation from the blockaded Gaza Strip, its biggest attack in years.

Sirens sounded across Israel and as far north as the contested city of Jerusalem from about 7am on Saturday after volleys of what Hamas claimed were 5,000 rockets launched from the blockaded enclave. A ground infiltration by Hamas gunmen into Israeli towns and villages on the periphery – an unprecedented development in the 16 years since the Islamists took over the strip – is ongoing, with the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) saying seven villages and towns are under Hamas control. The Israeli army also put the number of projectiles at around 2,000.

In response to the attacks, which appear to have caught the Israeli security services by surprise, Israel has declared a state of war.

WAR!

The bombing of Gaza has already begun.
