More than 5,000 missiles were fired into the country from Gaza, hitting a number of settlements with warning sirens sounding across south and central Israel, including in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n<p>The attack by the group designated a terrorist organisation by the UK Government in 2021 was launched on the last day of the Jewish High Holiday of Succot, as well as Shabbat, when the vast majority of the country&apos;s population were in synagogues to celebrate the festival. Within minutes, social media was filled with photos and videos of Hamas terrorists taking Israeli residents hostage, brutalising them and murdering them. <\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: Thousands of rockets rain down on Israel \u2013 &apos;soldiers kidnapped&apos; as state of war declared<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>For more of the latest news, click here.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.dailystar.co.uk\/incoming\/article31130416.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/2_TOPSHOT-PALESTINIAN-ISRAEL-GAZA-CONFLICT.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Speaking exclusively to the Daily Star, London-born Stefan Kerner told how he had just 90 seconds to get to a safe room when the rocket fire started at 6.30am\u2013 and how he saw \u201cblood running down the streets\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Stefan, who lives in Ramat HaSharon, just 70 minutes from the border with Gaza, said: \u201cWhere I live we have 90 seconds to get to our safe room, but in Sderot and other towns near the Gaza border that time is reduced to about 15 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;When I came out after the all clear and turned on the TV the reality of the situation was starting to become clear \u2013 this was no \u2018normal\u2019 rocket attack, this was an invasion.

Then a few hours later I saw the videos of Israelis, men women and children, civilians and soldiers, being kidnapped and paraded through the streets of Gaza as people celebrated their \u2018victory\u2019 \u2013 My fear turned to anger.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.dailystar.co.uk\/incoming\/article31130419.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/1_Clashes-between-Palestinian-factions-and-Israeli-forces.jpg\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<figure data-mod=\"image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/incoming\/article31128214.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458\/0_israle.jpg\"><\/figure>\n<p> Israeli families massacred in rocket barrage as bulldozer tears through border fence<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/s2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/@trinitymirrordigital\/chameleon-branding\/publications\/dailystar\/img\/logo-schema-dailystar.png\"><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>According to Israel&apos;s Health Ministry, 908 people have been injured in the attacks in Israel, with more than 100 killed.
