Arazi

(8,887 posts) Sat Oct 7, 2023, 01:47 AM Oct 2023

Looks like a war is beginning in Israel tonight [View all]

Lots of reports of casualties, rockets, police station ambushed etc.

Hamas has called for reinforcements from Lebanon, Syria etc.

An incursion this large would have had some level of help (and backing) of Iran imo.

Things are going to get very very ugly over the next 24 hours …
