On the morning of October 7, the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas  attacked Israel. It announced the start of the "Al-Aqsa Storm"  military operation and began a massive rocket attack. In addition,  members of the movement penetrated into the border areas of Israel.  Fighting in Israel broke out on the 50th anniversary of the Yom  Kippur War, Israel's worst military clash with Arab countries since  the War of Independence.  The Yom Kippur War began on October 6,  1973, with a joint surprise attack by the Arab coalition on Israeli  positions. Hamas launched the attack from the territory of the Gaza  Strip, which it de facto controls.  This sector borders the  southwestern part of Israel. Israel accuses the movement of  terrorism, which threatens security. After the attack, it launched  the counter-terrorism Operation Iron Swords in the Gaza Strip. There  are hundreds of dead and thousands of wounded on both sides,  including civilians.
