2021• 6 minPG

Synopsis

Hamas militants fired hundreds of rockets at Tel Aviv in response to Israeli airstrikes.

Synopsis

Hamas militants claim they have fired hundreds of rockets towards Tel Aviv in retaliation for Israeli airstrikes, including one that destroyed a 12-story residential block in the Gaza Strip. The airstrikes, which involved over 80 Israeli jets, have resulted in significant casualties, with at least 28 people killed in Gaza, including children, and three Israelis dead. The violence escalates as air sirens sound in Tel Aviv, prompting the closure of Ben Gurion International Airport and rerouting of flights to Cyprus. This barrage, which includes at least 130 rockets fired by Hamas, marks a critical point in the ongoing conflict, as it crosses a red line for the Israeli government. Correspondent Tanya Kramer reports from Jerusalem on the unfolding situation, highlighting the deadly impact on civilians and the ongoing military response from Israel.
