Amid the heavy fighting and bombardment, as many as 800 Israelis and approximately 500 Palestinians have been killed in the wake of the largest attack by the Palestinian armed group Hamas against Israel in decades.
The Defence Minister of Israel, Yoav Gallant, on Monday, stated that the authorities have to impose a total blockade on the Gaza Strip, cutting power, food and fuel supplies as part of ‘a complete siege’ on the Hamas-run territory.
Israeli defense minister: “No food, No electricity, No fuel, No water. We’re fighting human animals.”
