JERUSALEM, Undefined - Israel pounded Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip for the fifth straight day since the militants' audacious attack and the death toll spiraled into the thousands, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed the complete destruction of the militant group.
The United Nations said 11 of its staff had been killed in Gaza since Saturday, while the International Red Cross and Red Crescent societies said it had lost five of its members. Biden also made his first call for restraint over Israel's response to the Hamas attacks, urging Israel to abide by the rules of war.
"Israel before anything else," Gantz wrote in a social media post, while the far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir wrote that he"welcomes the unity, now we must win".As the war raged on, fears mounted in Israel over the fate of at least 150 hostages -- mostly Israelis but also including foreign and dual nationals -- held in Gaza by Hamas.
The enclave's sole power plant shut down Wednesday after running out of fuel, Gaza's electricity provider said. On Wednesday evening, rocket sirens sounded across Israel's north, and the army said there was a suspected aerial"infiltration" from Lebanon. It later backtracked, blaming an"error". Hamas gunmen swept into small towns and kibbutzim and indiscriminately killed residents who hid in their homes or died defending their communities.
Army spokesman Jonathan Conricus said they had discovered"a staggering 1,200 dead Israelis" -- most of them civilians -- as they went house to house.Troops have encountered and killed several holdout Hamas militants, said Israeli military spokesman Daniel Hagari, including 18 on Wednesday.
