The conflict in the Middle East is escalating again
The Islamist Hamas surprisingly launched rocket attacks on Israel from Gaza on Saturday morning. At the same time, armed Palestinians advanced into Israel by land, sea and air, attacking people in several towns near the border. Hundreds of people have already been killed in the fighting.
Israel launched a large-scale counter-offensive and has since been attacking Palestinian territory from the air. But a ground offensive is probably also underway: the aim is to free the numerous hostages of the terrorist group Hamas.
