He trace of the Hamas massacre in it southern Israel It still shocks the nation, where the Israeli dead exceed 1,200, more than in the entire Second Intifada (2000-05); While Gaza stripdestroyed, without electricity and almost no food, it is on the edge of an abyss with collapsed hospitals.
Images of corpses strewn across the country returned to Israeli screens today, in Kibbutz Beeri, where emergency services say they found mutilated, tortured and burned bodies at the scene, similar to those seen yesterday at the nearby Kfar Az kibbutz, which has toured the world amid great controversy.
Not even 24 hours have passed since the elite Israeli units, after 48 hours of fierce fighting, managed to end the resistance of the fighters who dug in in Beera.
As the army revealed today, Members of the Hamas militia who took control of Beeri on Saturday changed into Israeli army uniforms and started shooting at military units approaching the kibbutz, where they took about 40 people hostage.
It was the biggest massacre of all the communities in this area. said a military spokesman today. In that small community of no more than a thousand inhabitants, the medical services saved more than a thousand bodies, and some residents are still missing.
Because of its proximity to Gaza, just five kilometers from the fence, Beeri was one of the first centers destroyed by the thousand militias that attacked Israel early Saturday morning, and was one of the last to be fully captured by Israeli forces.
Terrorist infiltrations
Yesterday, Israel regained control of all of its territory and rejected the presence of militias, although it warns that they may still remain “terrorists” infiltrated Israeli soil. In fact, just yesterday they killed 18 Palestinian militiamen who were inside or trying to penetrate Israel, and today they neutralized another infiltration attempt by five militiamen, killing three of them.
With the dead crossing the 1,200 mark on the Israeli side, along with 3,000 wounded, Israel is still digesting the impact of an unprecedented war that will mark before and after; while still searching for dozens of missing people by following the DNA samples of unidentified victims.
In a gesture of national unity after months of political polarization and internal social fracture, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today announced the formation of an emergency government while hostilities continue, joined by the leader of the opposition. Benny Gantz, former Minister of Defense and former Chief of Staff.
There was no news of the hundred or so kidnapped Israelis being held by Islamist militias inside Gaza, from where rockets continued to be fired at Israel today, reactivating alarms in the center of the country, including the Tel Aviv area, and hitting one of them in a hospital in Ashkelon, the city near the enclave.
He wades into the abyss
In Strip, the situation is critical, on the verge of another humanitarian disaster, probably also unprecedented. The total death toll now stands at 1,100 dead and 5,330 injured.
At 11:00 GMT, Gaza’s electricity company cut off power to the entire enclave due to a lack of fuel. Israel has continued a relentless siege since Sunday – cutting off the strip from its power grid and cutting off all entry of gasoline, food or medicine; bombards without rest.
The Israeli army attacked 2,687 targets with continuous bombardment, many of which were militia facilities, but also homes, mosques and other civilian facilities.
Since the beginning of the counter-offensive, 14 medical centers have been damaged, and ten doctors have died. Without electricity, medicine or medical supplies, hospitals are overcrowded.
“Our capacities are at the limit and we can only try to save the lives of the injured,” dr. Medhat Abás, spokesman for the Al Shifa Medical Complex, the largest hospital in Gaza City, told EFE.
Northern border
As the war between Israel and Gaza militias intensifies, tensions on the northern border continue to escalate for the fourth day in a row.
An anti-tank missile was fired from Lebanon at an Israeli military post in Arab Al Aramshe, a settlement a few meters from the border, without causing damage or injuries. Since Sunday, the Lebanese Shiite group Hezbollah and Palestinian factions on Lebanese territory have carried out several rocket, mortar and projectile fires, and at least one infiltration into Israel; which responded to everything with air and artillery attacks.
The violence has so far resulted in the deaths of three Hezbollah members, in addition to some losses in the ranks of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) in Lebanon, and three Israeli army deaths that occurred on Monday during the infiltration. from Lebanon by that Islamist movement.
No group has claimed responsibility for launching anti-tank missiles today, although Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for three launches of this type of missile in recent days, and Palestinian militias usually limit themselves to rockets.
