Hamas targets drones at Israeli positions in latest attack

Another video released on Saturday (October 7) showed Hamas militants withdrawing from one of the settlements after allegedly carrying out an operation there.

Hamas began an attack at dawn on Saturday with a huge barrage of rockets into southern Israel, giving cover to an unprecedented, multi-pronged infiltration of fighters into Israel from Gaza, a narrow strip that is home to 2.3 million Palestinians.

Gunmen killed at least 250 Israelis in clashes throughout Saturday and into Sunday, and escaped back into Gaza with dozens of hostages. More than 300 Gazans were killed when Israel responded with one of its most devastating days of retaliatory strikes.
