A rocket rained down on a hotel in Israel’s Ashkelon, barely a few kilometres from the Gaza strip, this morning as NDTV journalists were about to check in. Air raid sirens blared as the crew ran for shelter leaving their luggage behind, showed visuals underlining the horror that Israelis are facing. Another showed live visuals of rockets piercing the skies.
NDTV brings this exclusive ground report from Israel which is fighting an all-out war against Hamas and other Palestinian groups.
Over 1,100 civilians and soldiers have been killed on both sides in the war that began Saturday morning following a barrage of rocket attacks from Gaza.
Israel has unleashed a fierce counterattack, determined to “change the face of reality” in Gaza.
