Palestinian terrorist group Hamas committed widespread atrocities against Israeli citizens after its gunmen infiltrated the Jewish state in an unprovoked assault.
Hamas in the wake of the terror attacks released videos of its forces parading dead and wounded Israelis around the Gaza Strip, where the terror group is based.
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an address vowed "mighty vengeance" against Hamas.
"We will strike them to the bitter end and avenge with force this black day they brought upon Israel and its people," he said. "All the places in which Hamas is based, in this city of evil, all the places Hamas is hiding in, acting from—we'll turn them to rubble."
