Hamas terrorists butcher civilians as stunned Israel suffers ‘9/11’ moment

The Telegraph  

Israel was at war on Saturday after Hamas terrorists slaughtered at least 250 civilians and took dozens of hostages to Gaza in a major surprise assault that left the country reeling. Fighting between Israeli troops and Hamas was still raging within Israeli territory by the evening, hours after the Islamist group crossed into the south of the country and moved from house to house gunning down civilians. More rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip towards Israel later in the day after an initial bombardment of 3,000 which sent crowds of Israelis into bomb shelters near the border and in Tel Aviv. “We will take mighty vengeance for this wicked day,” Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, said as he warned Hamas not to harm “even a single hair” of the civilians in captivity.
