The Prime Minister rishi sunak said he will work with the partners over the next 24 hours to coordinate support for israel as calls of condemnation and restraint come from capitals around the world. While in lebanons Palestinian Refugee camps, hundreds have taken to the streets to celebrate the assault by hamas. Good morning and welcome to sky news breakfasts live from jerusalem, Israeli Forces have spent the night striking back from the sky and on the ground after hamas launched the deadliest day of violence in israel for some 50 years. Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu vowed mighty vengeance while hamas leader ismail kenya has warned the assault that began and gaza will spread to the west bank and he says to here in jerusalem. Israel retaliated with its own Counter Offensive launching a series of airstrikes across the gaza strip, which have continued into this morning. Almost 250 people have been killed in israel since hamas launched a barrage of rockets and sent fighters bursting through the gaza barrier fence, just over 24 hours ago. And more than 230 in gaza have been killed in israels retaliatory strike, which troops are battling communist gunman in southern israel still this morning and the Israeli Defense forces say the situation is not fully under control. First this morning our middle east correspondent Alistair Bonds begins the coverage with this report. Overnight the Israeli Military have been Hitting Targets inside the gaza strip. In revenge for yesterdays attack by hamas. In term, hamas has continued to fire rockets into israel. The boom and flash from the iron dome Defense System intercepting it lit up the dark sky and could be heard across israel through the night. This morning Israeli Security forces are still fighting to regain full control of southern israel after hamas militants invaded yesterday. This was a Police Station in the israeli town of surat which had been taken by hamas. Hamas fighters initially used a bulldozer and explosives to open the Security Fence which surrounds gaza. Some pickup trucks, of there on bikes, entered nearby israeli towns and villages. The Israeli Defense force was taken completely by surprise. Our first goal is to cleanse the area of the enemy forces that have infiltrated it. I call on all citizens of israel to unite, to achieve our highest goal, victory in the war. The Israeli Death toll is high, and an unknown number of israelis have been kidnapped and taken into gaza. Israels focus will now be on rescuing them, whilst at the same time exacting revenge on hamas. It will be an extremely tricky operation. Israel says its turning of electricity and fuel into the gaza strip and has warned gazans to leave any building that might be hiding hamas fighters. These really Defense Minister warned that live in gaza will never be the same again. It is only into its second day that this shows every sign of being a long and difficult war ahead. Alasdair bunkall, sky news. Rishi sunak has denounced the attack by hamas as cowardly and depraved, adding that israel has an absolute right to defend itself. Joining us now is sky correspondent matthew thompson. Matthew, condemnation from across the west, what more has rishi sunak been saying . Yes right across the west and also read across the political spectrum here in the United Kingdom, first of Prime Minister rishi sunak was quick off the mark to condemn the attack. He wrote on twitter, as the barbarity of todays atrocity become clearer, we stand unequivocally with industrial. This attack by A Moscow Ugly and depraved. Weve expressed our full solidarity to netanyahu, thats of course the israeli Prime Minister and we will work with partners in the next few hours to coordinate support. Theres been condemnation from the foreign secretary, but across the political secretary, the Leader Of The Labour Party has said in no Uncertain Terms that israel has a right to defend itself. But also here, domestically, some concern as the metropolitan police have said it is stepping up patrols across london after some Video Footage began circulating last night on social media of people seemingly celebrating the attacks in israel. Waving palestinian flags and dancing in the streets, clips were shared. They urged metropolitan police to step in. They tweeted a response i remain in close contact with Senior Leadership at the met and communities across our cities. Londoners will see an Additional Police presence, let me be clear, he said, hate crime in london will not be tolerated. Thank you very much indeed, our International Affairs has more from southern israel. As you say this is more than 24 hours after hamas launched this unprecedented attack on the territory. They still dont have their own territory under control. There are two i think austin choo choo a shuns theyre most worried about, involving at least 50 hostages each, reportedly one in the kibbutz area, outside gaza the other way off king, four doesnt the israelis are reeling in shock from what is an unimaginable nightmare. And a horror. Theyve seen the palestinian launched an attack that they have never seen anyone perform. The two things is really depend the most, they believe in their military and intelligence, but theyve been taken by surprise by this. Adding to that the palestinian enemy hamas seems to have transformed itself into a completely different kind of fighting force, able to launch the multipronged attack on land, sea and air front, but also penetrating through the very expensive, the Security Fence that surrounds gaza, 29 points the israeli says. Through the thousands of fighters on motorbikes, jeeps and they went to the neighboring settlement around gaza and deep into israel. They massacred civilians, killing soldiers, taking armored vehicles, and also taking hostages. Whats been happening overnight is an exchange of missile fire, rocket fire, were hearing about a dozen miles north of gaza, fairly constant sound of guns firing missiles into gaza. In return, the palestinians have hit a number of sites in the towns of they hit a residential complex and a Medical Center says the israelis. They said the operation is underway and retaliation for what the palestinians have done and continue to do and a Ground Operation is eminent these. Really Prime Minister saying that no hiding place will be left they will all be turned to rubble. He is saying to the gazans are they need to move out of gaza or across gaza to avoid the areas that the israelis will be striking with the olive chilly. The operation which is expected to go on for a long time will be, i think, in for the long haul, will be deeply complicated by the fact that the palestinians have taken 150 hostages, it seems, civilians and soldiers. Or the loss of any hostage or the taking of any hostage has been an agony in the past but its been in one or twos to lose that many hostages is a tournament and something the israelis have never really had to go through in the past. The palestinians are releasing videos of these hostages being taken into gaza. Videos yet unverified but distressing to his rallies but hiring for anyone to watch, we saw jewish boy being slapped around by palestinian kids. A number of israeli families being held by the palestinians, one of an old woman. The fears that the palestinians are really goading the israelis to do their worst, to launch something that would be so disproportionate if they may draw in as the actors and supporters of the region. Very dangerous moments, mark. A. For the region, israel as we wait to see how israel will respond. Dominic there in the southern israel. There has been universal condemnation from the west with President Joe Biden describing a massive assault as unconscionable. Others including russia and saudi arabia have called for a ceasefire while in lebanon and iran, how glass has been celebrated and praised. U. S. Correspondent mark stone has been looking at the global reaction. Reaction the seriousness of this moment cannot be overstated. That represents a truly bloody Turning Point in this long conflict. And so from the back foot to the offensive. The consequence of saturdays terrorism against israel will be truly terrifying for the people of gaza. In washington, unequivocal support from israels closest ally and biggest backer. Today the people of israel are under attack, orchestrated by a terrorist organization, hamas. In this moment of tragedy, i want to say to them in the world, and terrorists everywhere, the United States stands with israel. We will not ever fail to have their back. We will make sure that they have the help their citizens need and they can continue to defend themselves. But, behind the unwavering support, he knows what israeli revenge looks like. He doesnt know how further huge bloodshed can now be avoided. The combination of thousands of rockets fired at israel and the breaking down of the Gaza Border Fence suggests an operation that was months in the planning. A hamas Military Commander says this was not a hidden run operation, we started an all out battle, he says. That is true and we just dont know what happens next or how wide this could spread. American officials have said they hope it remains confined to gaza. Maybe, but its hard to see how. The Security Situation in the west bank with a Palestinian Leader 2023 has been the most violent year in two decades. Its boosted support here in the west bank for hamas and gaza and they celebrated saturdays attack. In lebanon they celebrated to, behind this is the militant group hezbollah, whose well rehearsed opportunist tactics on another front. Lebanons broken politics and economy make things more dangerous. The biggest unknown, iran, how will israel respond to their conviction that this is, in the end and iran problem, their influence stretches to syria, lebanon and down to gaza. Just last month netanyahu was at the u. N. Touting a possible peace deal with saudi arabia. He wants it, so do the saudis. Now, not likely. This will be everyones focus right now, gaza. Israel told civilians to leave, but where to . They are closed in. Watch how egypt response. They could open the southern Border Crossing and face nearly 1 million refugees. A long, long conflict that has been forgotten, ignored or tolerated by too many for too long. It took a grim new twist this weekend. Mark stone, sky news. Joining me now from tel aviv is the lawyer, he is also Chief Executive of the International Legal forum. Thank you for being with us. First of all, what are your thoughts about what is going on in your country right now . My thoughts before coming on to do this interview with you my first thought was to look at where i am in to make sure where is the fastest escape path in case of rocket comes. What we are seeing here in israel in the last 24 hours is harrowing, you have people grieving, a nation that is in absolute shock. I would ask you to put yourself and your listeners in your search in the situation if you were sleeping on a Sunday Morning in london and all of a sudden, theres a Mass Infiltration of ices like terrorists. This is what we are dealing with. These iranianbacked hamas terrorist infiltrated into israel, they came to our homes, they took children. They took the elderly by their will chair, they took women, they violated them, shot them In Cold Blood. Innocent people. Sorry to interrupt you, im just asking how could it have happened . Israel prides itself on intelligence services, security, defense. How could this have happened . I dont have the answer to that. Theres a time in place for everything, there will be a time and place for political recriminations, assessments and understanding what happened and how to prevent it from ever happening again. That will come in due course, i can assure you that. Right now the primary concern is to secure the situation. To repel the terrorist will have infiltrated and retrieve those who are kept. There is widespread condemnation as we have been hearing of hamas and this attack and the infiltration and hostage taking, but there is also those in the west and certainly among puritan emperors here who say that the actions of this government have in some ways contributed to the tensions which have now exploded like never before. I think that is irrelevant, we have to remember who were dealing with, hamas is not the salvation army, hamas is a bloodthirsty i iranianbacked group. Who wants israels destruction. They parade women, they kidnapped children. This is not a humane force. What we are dealing with. This is not a battle between israel and hamas, this is a battle between good and evil. Between those who seek freedom and those who deny freedom. Those who want to seek peace and those who are barbarians. We will do anything necessary to defend ourselves irrespective of what they might say. But isnt it difficult to say its irrelevant when as mark stone was reporting this is the most rightwing government ever in israel and has been the most violent year for two decades in israel . Its difficult to say that it is irrelevant. Its difficult to say that the claims of the palestinians are irrelevant and all of this. Hamas has been around for 20 something plus years, weve had every kind of government here in israel, left wing, rightwing, center, and everything in between. Thereve been offers, and offers about peace, the one constant has been palestinian terror, and rejection. You dont negotiate with a group like hamas. They are a bloodthirsty islamic terrorist organization. There are not a rational actor, you cant negotiate with them. They are wanting to destroy and annihilate the state of israel. The United Kingdom would not negotiate with ices, nor will we negotiate with hamas. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you. Now from jerusalem, lets go back to sky news center and leah.
