Israel's Defence Minister Yaov Gallant has ordered the complete closure of the Gaza Strip, including a ban on the entry of food, water, fuel or access to electricity as Israel intensifies its bombardment of the besieged Strip in the wake of the surprise attack by the Palestinian resistance. His comments have drawn criticism for advocating collective punishment of Gaza's entire civilian Palestinian population in breach of international law.
Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant ordered an increase in intensity of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip.
Gallant said that the war Israel is fighting against Hamas is “a war for our future.”
He added: “Exacting a heavy price from the enemy is a necessary condition for our existence in the region.”
Gallant makes the comments during a visit to the Israeli Air Force’s underground command centre at the Israeli occupation forces headquarters in Tel Aviv.

Every single liberation group was considered a terrorist organization. Fuck, even Antifa gets called that and they're not even an organization.
Hamas believe that Jews are literally the enemies of Allah and that it is a holy war to kill them.
I'd be a little mad at them too if I were in their situation.
That's literally how the Nazis thought about Jews. "There are too many in our country, they are taking away our jobs an money".
How's that the same?? Just reread them both, slowly.
God I hate feddit de so fucking much.
I do agree that conservative Islam is partially to blame for the violence and terror but so is conservative Judaism. The conservative jews think it's their God given right to take the homes of the Palestinians and rule over them. Religion is fueling the fire on both sides.
What do you think about hamas killing innocent people, children?
Which children? Did Hamas target children like Israel does, or were they unfortunately caught in cross fire while they were fighting against their genociders?
They targeted any Israeli civilians, not just settlers, just anyone going door to door killing families.
Please show me evidence where Hamas targeted civilians minding their own business, and weren't just caught in crossfire. I doubt it.
The massacre at a music festival early on would suggest Hamas isn't just a group of freedom fighters.
Hamas did not massacre a music festival or even target it. The idiots held a dance rave at the border of a concentration camp and a war zone, and they ended up caught in cross fire. Grab any half sane person on the street and they'll tell you this is a bad idea.
