Israeli airstrikes destroyed a tower block in Gaza City after Hamas militants launched a rocket and air attack on Israel in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The Israeli army launched Operation Iron Swords against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, with Israel's president, Benjamin Netanyahu, saying the country, is 'at war'.

Al Jazeera journalist Youmna El Sayed was reporting live from Gaza the moment the missile struck Palestine Tower behind her.

Sources in Gaza said at least 198 Palestinians were killed in the strikes

      I know right.

      These people allow their representatives to murder and kill in their name, they even go so far as funding a terrorist state to oppress the inhabitants of the land they are colonising, while corralling them into ghettos or as second class citizens.

      Truly disgusting of them.

        you literally said it's acceptable to murder kids.

        you don't get to try and justify that.

          Israel murders far more Palestinian children, do you not understand why people would fight back against that?

              If it’ll stop him from killing your other child next, yes.

              This conflict can only end when the one with all the power stops commiting human rights violations.
