The Israeli Emergency Services estimate about 70 people are now dead in Israel, with hundreds seriously injured, after Gaza militants launched a surprise attack Saturday, firing thousands of rockets and entering Israel by land, sea and air using paragliders.

Additionally, 985 people have been wounded in the attacks in Israel, the Israeli Health Ministry said.

Meanwhile in Gaza, at least 198 

Palestinians have been killed, with 1,610 injured, the Palestinian health ministry said. Israel launched air strikes on Gaza in response to the attack, as Netanyahu vowed to "exact a huge price from the enemy."
