The death toll in Israel following a surprise attack by the militant group Hamas stands at 600, according to several Israeli media outlets.

The Kan public broadcaster and Channel 12, as well as the Haaretz and Times of Israel newspapers, reported the toll Sunday.

There has been no official confirmation of the number of deaths on the Israeli side since the fighting erupted early Saturday.

Palestinian officials say more than 300 people have been killed in Gaza, without differentiating between fighters and civilians.

Hamas gunmen used explosives to break through the border fence enclosing Gaza on Saturday, then crossed with motorcycles, pickup trucks, paragliders and speed boats on the coast.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office says his Security Cabinet has declared the country at war following a deadly Hamas assault in southern Israel.

The decision, announced on Sunday, formally authorizes “the taking of significant military steps,” it said it a statement.

“The war that was forced on the State of Israel in a murderous terrorist assault from the Gaza Strip began at 06:00 yesterday,” it said.

It gave no further details. But Netanyahu had previous declared the country at war, and the military has promised a harsh response in Gaza.

Israeli media say at least 600 people have been killed in the surprise cross-border incursion by Hamas militants from the Gaza Strip.

This is sad... I hope Ipob /obedients wey dey always call fr war dey see no b child's play 😒

Sad. May God console and comfort all the grieving families on both warring sides.
Let there be peace

Well, ain't it funny how no one's talkin' 'bout the Palestinian death toll? Seems like that don't fit the narrative, innit? But I reckon the Israeli lads are gonna sort 'em out, once and for all. It's all fair play, I say. Just sit back and watch the fireworks!

Isreal has learnt to play global politics. I love how they're making themselves look like the victim in all this while Gaza is currently being leveled. Yoro moslems on nairaland have been running mental since yesterday, they hate Isreal with every fibre of their being because their it was the Isrealites who proved to others that their armed robber prophet is a fake

Wow

Nigeria better not provoke war with any country oooo...


I am still partying on my Groceries and berries... 😒

Don't start a war you can't win.
If I were hamad,I would tow the part of dialogue than inciting war with Israel.
Now many innocent Palestine will meet their end.because Israel will want to make a statement by brutally attacking Gaza.

Very good. Let palestinians and Hama's say they killed less than 600. Israel will multiply 600 by 5. They will kill at least 3000 Palestinians in one week. Trust Israel. U do anyhow, u see over extra anyhow. Israel have a right to inflate the number of casualties. Let trouble makers understand that the gentle man u fight, when he decides to answer u, he will make it very bloody, u wouldn't want to ever consider attacking him again. If the like, complain 2 u.n Israel no go listen
