Over 100 Israelis have died and more than 900 were injured after rockets were fired from Gaza by Hamas militants, Israeli officials said Saturday.

The Palestinian Health Ministry said 198 were killed in Gaza and at least 1,610 were injured Saturday in retaliatory attacks from Israel.

“We are at war. We will win,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday.

The Israeli Defense Forces earlier declared “a state of alert for war,” according to a statement issued by the IDF.

“Over the past hour, the Hamas terrorist organization launched massive barrages of rockets from Gaza into Israel, and its terrorist operatives have infiltrated into Israel in a number of different locations in the south,” the IDF said early Saturday.

    When you say ‘destroying their neighbors culture’ - are you talking about Israel or Palestine?

      Clearly Palestine. They’re the ones with a government they elected that literally put “destroy all Jews” in their founding charter.

        Well, Israel was actively destroying culture as well. We’ve all seen the videos of Palestinians being evicted from their homes by Israeli military /police.

        In fact Id say thats way worse than words on paper. Systemic actions to destroy
