Russian First Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN Dmitry Polyansky confirmed this information on his Telegram channel, saying that the emergency meeting of the UN Security Council will take place at 3 p.m. EST on October 8. TASS reported.
On Saturday, the Gaza-based Hamas Resistance movement launched aerial, sea, and ground attacks on the occupied Palestinian territories, including at least 5,000 rockets in the initial phase of the operation, Press TV reports.
The unprecedented Palestinian operation came in retaliation to the Israeli desecration of al-Aqsa Mosque as well as a series of assaults against women in the compound of the mosque.
Late on Saturday, less than 24 hours after the operation was launched, Zionist media confirmed that several Zionist soldiers and settlers were held by the Resistance fighters in the besieged Gaza Strip, including senior Zionist army generals.
The death toll of Zionists has already crossed 300, according to the Zionist media. There have been more than 200 casualties on the Palestinian side as well from the regime’s indiscriminate bombardment.
Palestinian fighters and youth liberated several Zionist illegal settlements and seized jeeps, tanks, and jet fighters while Zionist settlers were seen running away or hiding in shelters or even trash containers.
