In a video published on the social network X we can see the impressive rocket fire in the Israeli sky.

The majority of these are fired using the Iron Dome, the air defense system designed to intercept these shells.

The Fox News correspondent who covered the Israeli-Palestinian conflict said that “this war is getting worse by the minute.”

According to the Ministry of Health, at least 150 people have died on Israeli soil since the operations, which Israel has described as “terrorist,” began.

The Hamas Health Ministry, which rules Gaza, regrets at least 198 deaths.

These tolls are likely to rise in the coming hours as long as the two parties have not reached a ceasefire.

“We are at war,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu even declared in response to the surprise attack, which included rocket fire and the incursion of pro-Hamas militants into Israeli cities.
