The Israeli army announced this Sunday that it will evacuate all Israelis living around the Gaza Strip in the next 24 hours. Tens of thousands of soldiers have been deployed to combat the Palestinian terrorists who have infiltrated into Israel since Saturday. They killed several communities of Jews and have kidnapped and killed dozens more in Israeli territory.
"Our mission for the upcoming 24 hours is to evacuate all the residents living around Gaza," military spokesman Daniel Hagari told reporters, adding that they are working to rescue the hostages that the terrorists captured in Israeli territory.
Hamas' brutal attack is a war crime. Taking women and children captive violates international law. Whoever took part will pay the price.

The Israeli army continues to defend itself from these ongoing attacks. The terrorists continue to launch rockets from Gaza with support from Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon. So far, at least 400 Palestinian terrorists have been killed and others have been captured in southern Israel and the Gaza Strip. The Israeli government announced on Sunday morning that the country officially approved the declaration of war against terrorism (which began on Saturday, October 7 at 6:00 a.m.).
Last night, the Security Cabinet approved the war situation and, to this end, the taking of significant military steps, as per Article 40 of Basic Law: The Government.
