Israel declared a state of war after a strong multiple attack from Gaza. The conflict escalated drastically in the Middle East region, involving Israel, the Palestinian group Hamas, and potentially Iran and the United States.
According to the Palestinian Authority, Israeli airstrikes have already killed 508 people, including around one hundred children, and left 2,800 injured. The bombings are part of Israel's response to the unprecedented attack launched by Hamas.
On the Israeli side, more than 700 people have died and 2,300 were injured due to Hamas's attack. This is considered one of the most serious attacks against Israel in decades.
In addition to the fatalities and injured, at least 130 people were captured and held as hostages by Palestinian groups, according to the article.
