As the Group Claims Responsibility for new attacks of their own on a location called sheba farms in the north of israel. Kayleigh israel entering the second day of a multifront war after hamas invade ised during a major jewish holiday, killing at least 350 israelis, churn included, in the deadliest attack in decades. Children included. Babies, women, the elderly were dragged outside of their homes, were taken hostage. This is our 9 11. Will Israeli Defense forces now going after hamas in gaza city. An idf Spokesman Says they have closed nearly 30 of the entry points hamas used to get into israel. Meanwhile in egypt, at least two israelis and one egyptian were shot and killed in the mediterranean city of alexandria. The suspected assailant, who is an Egyptian Police officer, was detained. Pete trey yingst joins us live from Southern Israel with the latest. Trey, youve done such great reporting. What is the latest down there . Reporter good morning. The latest along the gaza border is heavy fighting. Hamas militants have infiltrate thed again into some of the communities along the border between israel and gaza. Overnight new video was released by the Israeli Military of Drone Strikes and missile attacks. You can hear off in the distance that thes Reillys Are Shelling the gaza the israelis are shelling the gaza strip with Artillery Units theyre lined up along the border. But again, hamas fighters are not given up. They are still trying to take israeli territory. Just about an hour ago a we were at a scene where two militants had stolen a car, a civilian car, and drove toward a populated area, a city just north of here. They were engaged in a gun battle, and a number of militants were killed. They were worried that one of them escaped, so these forcessed had their guns drawn and and were prepare for more fighting even north of the gaza strip. In terms of what took place overnight, you saw the images from inside gaza, israel launching a massive air campaign targeting highrise buildings and a number of different hamas positions. Also militants on motorcycles that were trying to crosses again into israel. This is a very fluid situation, and its not just taking lace if here along the border anymore. We know that in the north of israel in shebaa farms, an area controlled for decades by israel, there was hezbollah attacks. Mortar and rocket fire, indicating that israel is now, indeed, facing a multifront conflict. Really the Nightmare Situation for the jewish state. And again, part of the reason israel has mobilized hundreds of thousands of reserve forces. This country is at war, and they are preparing for escalation. Back to you. Pete trey, were all here struck by the first sentence of your report which is hamas has Ine Fill Traited again infiltrate again. Are these fighters who came in on the first wave and maybe werent found . Are they still crossing from gaza into israel . I mean, whats the status . Reporter yeah. Some of the fighters came into this area during that initial push yesterday morning. But the concerning development is that a hamas controls enough territory along the border inside israel that theyre able to send reinforcements. And overnight they tried to send more along the beach. The israeli navy release video showing them striking mill tans that were trying to cross into israel. But further south they still are in control of israeli areas, and there are reports of gun battles between the military and these militants. So they still have enough room that theyre able to push their militants from islamic write had and hamas into Southern Israel and engage the Israeli Forces. It is unheard of. And its really hard to wrap your mind around that given this elite army in israel, they are still paced faced with this threat from hamas on the ground. Not just rocket fire from the air. Will trey, can you help me understand with a little more detail the initial incursion on the ground into Southern Israel . A couple of elementary questions. Is gaza completely surrounded by a border wall . Is it more like The American Southern Border where there are parts of border wall, parts checkpoints . And then let me ask you a secondary question to that, trey. Was the incursion are from just a couple of points, or was it all throughout how many different places was the barrier breached for these fighters to go into Southern Israel . Reporter so from the preliminary information that we have, it appears more than two dozen locations along the border were breached. This was a coordinated attack by a hamas and Islamic Jihad. There is a fence, a barrier or a wall at every point along the gaza strip. It was touted by the israelis as one of the most secure borders in the world. We actually went there and they showed us this technology under the ground with sensors. Weve seen the drones overhead that monitor the gaza strip 24 7. And thats part of the perplexing reason that people are simply confused about how this could have taken place. A massive intelligence failure, clearly, but also an indication that israel was caught flatfooted. And you saw this by the fact that these militants not only were able to infiltrate into Southern Israel and massacre civilian families unopposed, but they were able to capture israeli tanks and military vehicles and drive them back into the gaza strip. Kayleigh wow. Trey, i had read that two groups of hostage as were released or secured, rather, by the israeli army, the idf forces. Any update on how many hostages there currently are . The answer chances of them being rescuedsome. Reporter yeah, last height we got a piece of good news amid this horrific story and it was that is 11 is people were freed in a hostage rescue. Special forces went in, they killed what we understand 4 militants from that it is a hamas that were holding these people in a dining hall and rescued all of those israelis. Also some more good news amid this horrific story this morning. Workers or individuals who were at this Music Festival, we havent been able to confirm the identity, but dozens of people who were hiding in a drainage ditch, they ran during the initial infiltration along the border, and they were just found last hour by Israeli Forces and rescued. So we are getting these pieces of information. The story is changing each and every minute. And there are still families in Southern Israel that arent sure if their loved ones are are alive or or dead. I want to just tell you a quick story to really give you how close to home this hits for the israeli people. Our technician has a brother that lives in one of the communities along the border, and he didnt hear from him yesterday e for 12 hours. And we learned this morning that he survive ised, his family survived. They were inside of a shelter in their house, and hamas militants entered their home and fired on the door of the shelter trying to get in. And just by chance they were able to survive. But this shows you just how close this war is to everyone here in israel and families waiting these hair rowing hours trying to understand if their loved ones were alive or dead. You can really just understand how difficult that was and continues to be for many families here in Southern Israel whose loved ones are still unaccounted for. Will trey, one more question. Any idea how many terrorists made their way into Southern Israel . How many men running around with guns, taking hostages, Invade Ising Small Villages and towns . And then as a Backup Question that i think you already answered, did israel, has israel reestablished control of that border with gaza . Reporter yeah. So we understand that hundreds of militants crossed the border into israel during this initial intillation. Infiltration. And once areas were opened there, or according sources we spoke with inside gaza, supporters e of hamas and Islamic Jihad also came in to help them kidnap these civilians and soldiers. It was chaos along the border. And many of the troops were caught off guard. They were in bed, they were sleeping on shabbat, saturday or in israel. And when they were able to engage some of these gunmen that entered into their country and took over Military Bases along the border, they were simply outnumbered. There were fire fights that took place and top commanders and soldiers in Tease Communities along the border and at these military installations were killed in fire fights or captured. They have not been able to regain control of the entire gaza border region, and that is part of the concern today. They still dont have a full picture of how many people were killed in certain communities and what type of territory hamas still controls. When you lock at the gaza strip, its dozens of miles long, its actually quite a small enclave. But there are many israeli communities that sit along the border, sometimes just a few hundred teat away from the border. So they were able to infiltrate these neighborhoods, take over houses and other building, and we understand at this hour they are still engaged in fire fights with the Israeli Military. Pete wow. A sobering update from trey yingst. Trey, thank you so much for those details and that information. God bless. Stay safe. Kayleigh stay safe. Pete it is, its staggering. Having been with there in that location right next to the gaza strip, ive been in one of the tunnels there that was used before. It is, not only is there a border, but a buffer zone leading up to the border and from the borders which is presumably kind of a dm dis, a no mans land are, where if youre in that area, youre up to no good into you will be dealt with. Him emphasizing, whatd he say, two dozen points of entry where they were able to breach, i mean, that means it was almost a bum rush. Too many places, too many people, hundreds, and then youve got, you know, weve seen the images online of these motorized paragliders, of people sea as well. Kayleigh and then hamas sympathizers joining in. And the reality for if these people, its tragic. You know, i spoke with robby berman last hour, hes attending his friends sons funeral, 27yearold israeli soldier killed yesterday, and he toll me a very tragic story. A 4yearold and ankle 8yearold and an 8 year old now urn a bed. As we speak now, just a few hours ago, a woman said that she received phone call from her nieces whos 8 years old, and said shes hiding, they have killed mommy and daddy. Shes hiding with her 4yearold brother underneath her bed, theyve been there for hours, no ones coming to get them. This is an ongoing failure, over 100 poem have been kidnapped, and these are old women, young children, young people going to the music fair. I feel so bad for the innocent palestinian women and children in gaza, but theres going to be a lot of people that are going to die. This is a war. This is not this is war. This is a fulltime war, and this was done on the anniversary of the congresswoman kip purrwar, and it exactly was like yom kippur. It was a bigger scale. Will bigger but at the same time not so sophisticated. Weve heard that testimony that it was more chaotic, more of a bum rush as you just described, pete. And people have pointed out as well, that seems odd that it could not have hit the radar of israeli intelligence, one of the most sophisticated intelligence operations in the world. And it also serves, i think, as a warning even to the United States of america with our border. Its a failure of imagination that you consistently think of the wrong things and often too big, dont think small enough in the way that someone can sow chaos and terrorism. In fact, former u. S. Ambassador to israel David Friedman talk talked about the threat was actually in its lack of sophistication. This was not a particularly sophisticated attack. This was a one. Of terrorists bar. Ing a marching across the border. Theres a buffer zone between, you know, gaza a and that border. They should have been intercepted before they ever got to the border. They blew up the fence, they marched through 22 towns, took over an army base for 10 hours, they killed a bunch of soldiers in their sleep. They proceeded to commit atrocities the likes of seen i dont think which i dont think weve seen since the holocaust. Its about basically keeping your board or safe. And thats the lesson that i think america can gain from as well. Youve got to know whos in your country, youve got to know whats on your border, and youve got to be able to protect your border from bad people. Kiki gotta think about the gotaways, right . Pete you cant help, i mean, obviously, were focused on israel, but you cant help draw that comparison to whats going on on our southern border right now. Lets break down what the ambassador was Talking About there, because it was not sophisticated in the use of technology, but it was certainly coordinated. We know that. And just orient you real quick to the map again. Again, state of us israel. Comparison, i did it incently last hour incorrectly, about the size of the state of new jersey. Lets say we didnt control the holland and lincoln tunnels into new york, that would give you a sense of the ability of enemies to enter the city. This morning were Talking About hezbollah, okay . This is a group of Islamic Militantses in the north that are tied in, basically taking control of the state of lebanon. Theyre now lobbing rockets into the Golan Heights. The Golan Heights is a streaming Thetic Location E up here in the north. Its heights for a reason. Its up high. You can oversee syria, but you can also look down into israel. If you control the go land heights, you control basically the northern portion of israel with your ability to bring artillery down. Theyve now entered into a conflict that weve so far been focus down here in the gaza a strip. And this is where trey yingst is reporting in the south of israel, where the majority of attacks have occurred. I want to move forward to the Rocket Attacks which is really the cover that was used to provide the Ground Assault. The Ground Assault is where most of the casualties have occurred. The 350 israelis have been killed at the point of a gun from Hamas Terrorists in their homes. But were hearing upwards of 3,000 rockets which is the equivalent of the amount of rockets fired in entire conflicts in the state of israel. So the Iron Dome Technology that we hear so much about that shoots missiles down, the sophistication that David Friedmans Talking About, technology, it was simply overwhelmed. They couldnt shoot every rocket down. If you have Hundreds And Thousands of rockets raining in from the gaza strip throughout israel, and were talking tel aviv now, were talking excuse me, jerusalem, right here. You create the cover for a Ground Invasion as people go to their bunkers to cover themselves. Thats when hamas made their infiltration into if a lot of parts of the south. And treys reporting is justing staggering. Again, heres an orientation. This is the gaza strip. Again, given over to the palestinians in 2005. Hamas, aist organization, takes it terrorist organization, takes it in 2007. Theyve spent 15 years building up a terror army there. And, will, youd asked the right question. Theres a fence around the entire thing with a buffer zone. But according to trey yingst, it wasnt just one location, it was upwards of who two dozen across that border or where where it was breached. And some locations, and we dont know exactly where they are right now, which are still under control of hamas which means if youve got attacks throughout and weve hard of at least 20, 25 towns in Southern Israel where residents woke with up at six in the morning to Hamas Terrorists many in their yard, in their home with rifles either killing innocent civilians or taking hostage as. Apparently, that Pipeline Remains open at this moment in certain locations. Zikim base which is one of the locations weve talked about actually was part of a naval assault. So not only have they tried to come through the wall, theyre tried to come through the ocean. The idf trying to interdict them. The crossing location is one of the locations youve seen video from this morning. A heavily fortified idf Military Base swarmed quickly. Vehicles taken, Con First Candidated from that location confiscated. Yes, its a small location, but its one thing to hit towns that are just across the gaza strip, its at another thing when the reality is that towns 15 miles away which means not only are you flying in on a paraglider or walking across an open border, youre getting on a motorcycle if or vehicle and driving specifyingically to towns and specifically to towns and locations. One of those low cases, that Music Festival which i questions was an allnight festival, part of a celebration. And this
