Palestinian militants burst into southern Israel and killed two Israeli fuel Terminal workers in a surprise attack that sparked Israeli shelling and air strikes in the Gaza strip. Palestinian officials said that six people were killed in the reprisals by Israel, which rushed troops and tanks across the border into Northern Gaza after the attack. Islamic Jihad and tow other smaller armed factions claimed responsibility for the raid at the Nahal Oz terminal across the border from Gaza.
The Nahal Oz terminal is the sole conduit of fuel to Gaza’s 1.4 million residents. Israel condoned off the area, while police and emergency service reinforcements rushed there. Regev made this statement to officials:
“The Hamas attack on the fuel terminal that supplies Gaza its energy shows their total and complete disregard for the civilian population of Gaza”
The Hamas is a holding hostage and hateful agenda the civilian population of both Gaza Strip and southern Israel. Supplies from Nahal Oz were temporarily stopped and Israeli Cabinet Minister Gideon Ezra said Israel should just stop transferring fuel. I agree with this because if this fuel situation is constantly going have people dying, then they should just STOP and worry about transferring fuel to their own people instead of people from different countries because it seems to cause many problems.
