Air raid warnings sounded day and night in Tel Aviv and downtown Jerusalem due to rocket attacks by the Palestinian armed political faction Hamas.
The US Secretary of State, who was meeting with the Israeli Prime Minister, also had to evacuate to a bomb shelter.
As fighting between the two sides enters its 11th day, clashes are intensifying again.

An air raid warning sounds in Israel’s largest city, Tel Aviv.
Shocked residents hurriedly head to shelters.
The Israeli parliament suspended its meeting due to the sudden attack.

An Israeli government spokesperson also ran out during the live broadcast.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who visited Israel again, also took refuge in a bunker during a meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu.
As Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, which were considered relatively safe, are within range of Hamas attacks, the agitation of residents is growing.

However, unlike the surprise attack on the 7th when thousands of rockets were launched, most of them were neutralized by the Israeli military’s air defense system Iron Dome.
The Israeli military also responded with bombings, and the Gaza Health Ministry said that at least 71 people were killed in last night’s bombings alone.

The UN’s top relief project leader has decided to visit the Middle East, including Egypt, to provide relief supplies to the Gaza Strip.
The European Union has also decided to directly airlift water, food, and medicine to Gaza residents by plane within this week.
