The IDF Spokesperson’s office stated on Motzei Shabbos that IDF fighter jets attacked a six-story building in the Rimal neighborhood of northern Gaza in which Hamas offices were located at approximately 10 p.m.

The United Nations envoy for Middle East peace said Saturday evening that the UN and Egypt are working together to end the fighting between Israel and Palestinian terror groups in the Gaza Strip.
“The United Nations is working with Egypt and all sides to calm the situation. I call on all parties to immediately de-escalate and return to the understandings of the past few months. Those who seek to destroy them will bear responsibility for a conflict that will have grave consequences for all,” Nikolay Mladenov said in a statement.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructed the army “to deal a hard blow” to terror groups in the Gaza Strip in response to rocket fire from the Palestinian territory, according to a defense official quoted by Hebrew-language media.
The Israel Defense Forces on Saturday launched a series of strikes on the Gaza Strip from both land and air, as around 200 rockets were fired toward Israel from the Palestinian enclave. The army said dozens of the projectiles were intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system.
A senior Israeli official told Channel 13 news that there is growing understanding there will not be an immediate return to calm on the southern border, with an expectation of “at least two to three days of fighting.”

Due to the continued rocket fire from the Gaza Strip and the resulting color red sirens that have been bombarding Israelis all over Israel’s south, dozens of Israelis have suffered emotional stress reactions including shock.
Since Shabbos ended, the United Hatzalah Psychotrauma and Crisis Response Unit volunteers as well as emergency medical volunteers have treated 40 people who have suffered light injuries or were victims of shock and emotional or psychological stress in numerous cities in Israel’s south.

Over three hundred rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel on Shabbos, and Israel’s Iron Dome system intercepted dozens of them.
Air raid sirens sounded in Gaza-area towns, as well as in Beit Shemesh and other Jerusalem-area towns. Rockets also landed in the courtyards of a home and school in Kiryat Gat.
A 60 year old man was declared dead after being critically wounded at approxamitely 2:30 following a rocket attack which hit a building in the Ashkelon area.
MDA paramedics provided medical treatment to the man and evacuated him to the Ashkelon Barzilai Hospital with shrapnel wounds in his chest and stomach. The hospital announced his death approxamitely one hour after the hit.

Vice President Pence hammered former Vice President Joe Biden and other leading 2020 Democratic presidential contenders as “advocating a socialist agenda.”
“I think the choice that we face in the country today is a choice between freedom and socialism, increasingly. President Trump has been advocating an agenda that’s built on the principles of freedom in the marketplaces, lower taxes, less regulation, more access to energy, better, fair trade deals,” Pence told CNBC on Friday.
