VIDEO: Ashkelon's Sky Filled with Hamas Strikes
Footage has emerged online from the Israeli city of Ashkelon, which was struck by Hamas rocket fire this evening.
The war between Israel and the Palestinian Islamic movement Hamas began early on the morning of October 7 with a barrage of hundreds of rockets launched into Israeli territory. On the same day, militants stormed a music festival, where 260 participants were found to have been killed.
Yesterday, October 10, the Israeli Ministry of Defense announced a shift to a 'full-scale attack.' A Hamas representative promised to kill one hostage for each strike directed at the Gaza Strip without warning. Reports indicate that at least 100 Israelis are currently held captive by Hamas.
